The Mountain View, California-based company offers individuals access to over 4,000 Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from 200 educational institutions and corporations. The company also offers over two dozen degree programs at prices lower than what a learner would pay at a traditional, in-person institution.

In today’s economy in which the skills needed to succeed are rapidly evolving, education is becoming more important than ever.

Online education will play a critical role, enabling anyone, anywhere, to gain the valuable skills they need to earn a living in an increasingly digital economy.”</blockquote><p>The filing lists Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as underwriters. The number of shares and the price range of the proposed offering are yet to be determined.According to PitchBook data, Coursera’s most recent valuation in the private markets was $2.5 billion. To date, the company has raised $464 million in venture capital, most recently,$130 million in a Series F roundlast July. Coursera’s biggest institutional shareholders are New Enterprise Associates (18.3% of company stock), G Squared (15.9%) and Kleiner Perkins (9.2%).</p><p><b>Operating Results</b></p><p>The company earned $293 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, up 59% from 2019. Net losses widened by about $20 million year-on-year, reaching $66.8 million in 2020. Revenues shot up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on traditional education. In tandem with rising demand, operating costs associated with the company’s services rose, largely driven by the freemium content and marketing expenses. Coursera added over 12,000 new degree learners across the two years ended December 31, 2020 at an average acquisition cost of just below $2,000. The number of registered users rose by 65% year-on-year in 2020. Coursera’s accumulated deficit since its founding stood at $343.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The company does not expect to turn a profit in the foreseeable future.</p><p>The company’sCoursera for Campus,launched in late 2019to enable colleges to offer its library of MOOCs to their students, has been a key driver of recent revenue growth. At the start of the pandemic, Coursera made the program free to tertiary institutions until Sept. 30, 2020. Over 4,000 tertiary institutions from across the world signed up for the program, which, according to the company’s S-1 filing, makes it, “one of our fastest growing offerings”. As of December 31, 2020, over 130 tertiary institutions were paying for it.</p><p>At this point, it is hard to predict what the end of the pandemic would have on the company’s operating results.</p><p><b>The Strategy and Market Opportunity</b></p><p>Coursera is one of the most disruptive firms in the world. It has a flywheel approach to value creation, with significant price-to-cost advantages versus its competition. The company reported that about half of its new degree students in 2020 had been previously registered with Coursera and that its average student acquisition cost was less than $2,000. Its average student acquisition cost is lower than the industry standard. The edu-tech platform is able to efficiently acquire learners at scale because of the huge number of free, high-quality courses that it offers in partnership with top educational institutions and corporations; its ability to personalize content based on its wealth of data; the strength of word-of-mouth promotion by learners; the profitability of its affiliate paid marketing channel.</p><p>The platform offers a number of education tracks, for example:</p><ul><li>Specializations: A learner can pay between $39 and $99 a month for job-specific content across over 500 categories.</li><li>MasterTrack Certificates: For a quarter to a year, a learner can earn a certificate issued by a university-issued certificate. Prices range from $2,000 to $6,000.</li><li>Bachelor’s or Master’s Degrees: Fees range from $9,000 to $45,000.</li><li>Coursera for Enterprise: Through this platform, businesses, educational institutions and governments can deploy content to their learners.</li></ul><p>In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Coursera partnered with over 330 government agencies across 30 U.S. states and cities and 70 countries as part of itsCoursera Workforce Recovery Initiative, which gave governments the chance to offer unemployed workers free access to thousands of business, data science, and technology courses from companies such as Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN)and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL).</p><p>The company has 77 million registered learners, as well as over 2,000 businesses (including 25% of Fortune 500 companies) and 100 government agencies who paid for its enterprise offerings. The majority of its revenue (51%) was earned outside of the United States. Converting only a fraction of its 77 million registered users into paid users would change the economics of customer acquisition. The company’s present scale is a huge competitive advantage in the market.</p><p>A learner’s curriculum is designed to be “stackable”, which is to say that a learner can go through a domain in an incremental fashion. The company is able to leverage the huge volume of data it has accumulated from its over 220 million enrollments to personalize content. So, for example, Coursera’s Skills Graphs can suggest paths for job skills.</p><p>Coursera uses technology to drive down distribution costs, make content more affordable, extend access to less economically-endowed regions, help learners keep abreast of emerging skills, and grow its market opportunity. The Covid-19 pandemic has only accelerated secular trends towards the use of technology in education.</p><p>The size of the addressable market is massive and it’s easy to see why.An August 2020 study by the United Nationsdemonstrates the degree of disruption brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic: of the 1.6 billion students in 190 countries covered in the report, or 94% of the world’s students, were prevented from going to school because of Covid-19 pandemic related school closures.</p><p>In 2017, the World Bank indicated thatof the 200 million college students in the world, many do not have job-specific skills.</p><p>The Covid-19 pandemic and prior secular trends suggest that the future of education is in blended classrooms, job-specific education and continuous, lifelong education. Online learning platforms like Coursera will be the primary means through which educational content is delivered.</p><p>Globally, spending on higher education in 2019 was $2.2 trillion,according to HolonIQ. Spending on online degrees was $36 billion and is predicted to reach $74 billion by 2025.</p><p>With a huge, existing learner base; a strong brand; and the significant advantages detailed above, Coursera is likely to grab a significant amount of the market’s growth. Of thescenarios for the future of education, it seems that Coursera will continue to grow.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>Coursera seems poised to meet the challenges of a changing education landscape. With its vast, existing user base, its flywheel model, its competitive advantages, and its existence in a huge and growing addressable market, the company is likely to do very well. The company’s value proposition is compelling. However, long run success does not equate to a good investment in the short run. An unprofitable company like Coursera is likely to be very volatile on the markets until it reaches profitability. It is better to wait for Coursera to turn a profit before investing in the company.</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>Coursera: The Education Disruptor Goes Public</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\">\nCoursera: The Education Disruptor Goes Public\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-30 17:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4413745-coursera-education-disruptor-goes-public><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe company is growing rapidly as a result of secular trends as well as the Covid-19 pandemic.It is operating in a huge addressable market that is likely to grow for the foreseeable future....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4413745-coursera-education-disruptor-goes-public\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7cedd6cbf23bbe97eaec389fb0773ed6","relate_stocks":{"COUR":"Coursera, Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4413745-coursera-education-disruptor-goes-public","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1163996400","content_text":"SummaryThe company is growing rapidly as a result of secular trends as well as the Covid-19 pandemic.It is operating in a huge addressable market that is likely to grow for the foreseeable future.Coursera enjoys many competitive advantages, among them a large, existing user base, price-to-cost advantages, and the ability to personalize content as a result of its trove of data.Given its scale, and competitive advantages, the company should win an outsized share of its market opportunity.However, because the company has not turned a profit, there is a chance that its stock may be too volatile in the near term.

So, for example, Coursera’s Skills Graphs can suggest paths for job skills.Coursera uses technology to drive down distribution costs, make content more affordable, extend access to less economically-endowed regions, help learners keep abreast of emerging skills, and grow its market opportunity. The Covid-19 pandemic has only accelerated secular trends towards the use of technology in education.The size of the addressable market is massive and it’s easy to see why.An August 2020 study by the United Nationsdemonstrates the degree of disruption brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic: of the 1.6 billion students in 190 countries covered in the report, or 94% of the world’s students, were prevented from going to school because of Covid-19 pandemic related school closures.In 2017, the World Bank indicated thatof the 200 million college students in the world, many do not have job-specific skills.The Covid-19 pandemic and prior secular trends suggest that the future of education is in blended classrooms, job-specific education and continuous, lifelong education. Online learning platforms like Coursera will be the primary means through which educational content is delivered.Globally, spending on higher education in 2019 was $2.2 trillion,according to HolonIQ. Spending on online degrees was $36 billion and is predicted to reach $74 billion by 2025.With a huge, existing learner base; a strong brand; and the significant advantages detailed above, Coursera is likely to grab a significant amount of the market’s growth. Of thescenarios for the future of education, it seems that Coursera will continue to grow.ConclusionCoursera seems poised to meet the challenges of a changing education landscape. With its vast, existing user base, its flywheel model, its competitive advantages, and its existence in a huge and growing addressable market, the company is likely to do very well. The company’s value proposition is compelling. However, long run success does not equate to a good investment in the short run. An unprofitable company like Coursera is likely to be very volatile on the markets until it reaches profitability. It is better to wait for Coursera to turn a profit before investing in the company.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":105,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352585796,"gmtCreate":1616985203815,"gmtModify":1634523296837,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574988941786432","authorIdStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GME TO THE MOON","listText":"GME TO THE MOON","text":"GME TO THE MOON","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/352585796","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":182,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":358753271,"gmtCreate":1616733658893,"gmtModify":1634524295774,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574988941786432","authorIdStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GME TO THE MOON","listText":"GME TO THE MOON","text":"GME TO THE MOON","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/358753271","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":192,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":359850252,"gmtCreate":1616384801676,"gmtModify":1634526131371,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574988941786432","authorIdStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GME TO THE MOON","listText":"GME TO THE MOON","text":"GME TO THE MOON","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/359850252","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":181,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":359316525,"gmtCreate":1616341951067,"gmtModify":1634526290201,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574988941786432","authorIdStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GME TO THE MOON","listText":"GME TO THE MOON","text":"GME TO THE MOON","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/359316525","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":248,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350493377,"gmtCreate":1616246756499,"gmtModify":1634526595380,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574988941786432","authorIdStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","listText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350493377","repostId":"1117450855","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1117450855","pubTimestamp":1616166767,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1117450855?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-19 23:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Powell says Fed will keep supporting economy ‘for as long as it takes’","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1117450855","media":"marketwatch","summary":"Outlook is brightening, but recovery ‘far from complete,’ Fed chairman says in WSJ op-ed.Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Friday said that while the U.S. economic outlook is “brightening,” the recovery is “far from complete.”In an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal,Powell recounted the moment last February when he realized that the coronavirus pandemic would sweep across the country.“The danger to the U.S. economy was grave.

Investors will soon discover if Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index will undertake one of the biggest overhauls in its 51-year history, a move that would impact tens of billions of dollars in funds tracking the stock benchmark.\nOn Monday (March 1), Hang Seng Indexes Co will offer its conclusion after an industry consultation over proposed changes to the city's stock benchmark, which if approved would increase the number of member constituents, cap weightings of individual companies and fast-track new listings. The announcement is expected shortly before a press briefing that starts at 4:30pm local time.\nThe city's stock market is already undergoing change at a time when China's tech giants hold growing sway, forcing the index compiler to act on a staid gauge overstuffed with banks and insurers. Hong Kong has become the preferred venue for a wave of Chinese megacaps to sell shares, including standouts like Kuaishou Technology, which surged 161 per cent at its debut in early February after holding the world's largest internet initial public offering since Uber Technologies.\nThe announcement will also come on the heels of a record buying frenzy from mainland traders that propelled the HSI past the 30,000 point level in January for the first time since May 2019, led by heavyweights like Tencent Holdings and Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing. If the wide-ranging changes are approved, analysts say that the HSI, which in 2020 lagged global peers by the most in decades, could have more room to run.\n\"The valuation of the index will be pushed higher as more new economy stocks are expected to join under the changes,\" said Dickie Wong, executive director of research at Kingston Securities. \"This could also make the index more volatile.\"\nAs part of the proposed changes, Hang Seng Indexes is looking at ensuring that a certain number of benchmark members are classified as Hong Kong firms, which could dilute the influence of some of the largest stocks. The portion of mainland companies in the index by market value was 79 per cent in 2020, according to the December consultation paper.\nOn Friday, Hang Seng Indexes added three companies to its index following its quarterly review, expanding the constituent count to 55 members from 52. The changes are effective March 15. The benchmark index was 1.3 per cent higher as of 10.36am on Monday in Hong Kong, with Meituan and Tencent Holdings among leading gainers.\nLaunched in 1969, the Hang Seng Index started out with 33 constituents, rising to 38 in 2007 when it began to include H-share firms. Last year, Hang Seng Indexes added dual class shares and secondary listings to its index in a major revamp, allowing Chinese giants like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. into the city's benchmark.\nKey changes under consideration\n• Increase the number of constituents to between 65 and 80, from 52 members\n• Remove minimum listing history requirement for inclusion into index. Currently, there is minimum three-month listing based on market value rank\n• Lower the weighting cap of individual constituents, now at 10 per cent, and align the weighting cap of secondary-listed members to 8 per cent\n• Select constituents by industry group to balance representation, Currently, among 12 industries, telecoms, financials and IT cover 80 per cent in terms of market capitalisation as of December 2020\n• Maintain a certain number of constituents classified as Hong Kong companies. The weighting of Hong Kong firms in HSI fell to 42.2 per cent in December 2020 from 45.3 per cent at end-2016","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":69,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":386483402,"gmtCreate":1613250966106,"gmtModify":1634554102924,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"please like and comment","listText":"please like and comment","text":"please like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/386483402","repostId":"2110904027","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":326475501,"gmtCreate":1615704437303,"gmtModify":1703492268215,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks","listText":"like and comment thanks","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/326475501","repostId":"1114441743","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114441743","pubTimestamp":1615562490,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1114441743?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-12 23:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AT&T raises HBO Max subscriber forecast, sees 120 million to 150 million by the end of 2025","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114441743","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nAT&T said it now expects global subscribers of between 120 million and 150 million for H","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nAT&T said it now expects global subscribers of between 120 million and 150 million for HBO Max and HBO by the end of 2025.\nBack in October 2019, the company set a goal of hitting 50 ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/12/att-expects-120-million-to-150-million-hbo-max-subs-by-end-of-2025.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;

Retail subscribers are those that purchase the streaming service directly, not through a cable subscription or other streaming subscription.\nThis means that nearly half of HBO subscribers who were eligible to get HBO Max have not signed up yet.\nAT&T’s new forecast comes as Netflix recently surpassed 200 million subscribersduring the fourth quarter 2020, and and Disney’s streaming service Disney+ surpassed 100 million subscribers just 16 months after its launch.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":360079707,"gmtCreate":1613801883409,"gmtModify":1634552154417,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks!!","listText":"like and comment thanks!!","text":"like and comment thanks!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/360079707","repostId":"1143100356","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143100356","pubTimestamp":1613792715,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1143100356?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-20 11:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Top Tech Stocks to Buy Now for Big Growth","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143100356","media":"Nasdaq","summary":"The S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq slipped during the week of February 15, after they closed at new records last week.

The company is also focused on autonomous driving tech, as well as batteries, which are the lifeblood of the industry.</p><p>NIO sells multiple models that are somewhat in-line with Tesla, from smaller SUVs to sedans. The company said in early January that it delivered 17,353 vehicles in the fourth quarter, which marked a 110% jump.</p><p>Overall, NIO’s full-year deliveries surged 113% to nearly 44,000 vehicles in 2020.

Luckily for investors who missed the ride, NIO has cooled down, up only 12% in the last three months.</p><p>At roughly $55 per share, it’s down about 13% from its late January records. The recent downturn has seen it fall from overbought in terms of the Relative Strength Index to around 45—an RSI above 70 is often regarded as overbought, with any number below 30 considered oversold.</p><p>NIO’s recent price performance could give it room to run if it’s able to impress Wall Street. And the stock jumped over 1% through morning trading Friday, as it bounces off its 50-day moving average. NIO shares also trade at a discount compared to other high-flyers at 12.7X forward sales, which marks a discount against Tesla’s 15.5X and comes in 25% below its own six-months highs.</p><p>Three out of the nine brokerage recommendations that Zacks has for NIO come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none below a “Hold.” NIO might be worth buying as a long-term play that’s far less expensive than Tesla ($784 a share), in a world where EVs already accounted for over 30% of Volvo’s new car sales in Europe in 2020.

Meanwhile, 14 of the 19 brokerage ratings Zacks has for CRWD come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none lower than a “Hold.”</p><p>Looking back, the company crushed our Q3 estimates in December, with sales up 86%.

Meanwhile, its revenue is projected to jump 79% to hit $861 million in FY21 and then climb another 42% to $1.22 billion in FY22.</p><p>CrowdStrike’s expected growth would come on top of FY20’s 93% sales expansion.

This could be one of the biggest buying opportunities of this decade, especially for those who get in early.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":73,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350493377,"gmtCreate":1616246756499,"gmtModify":1634526595380,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","listText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350493377","repostId":"1117450855","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":367,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":326475679,"gmtCreate":1615704415391,"gmtModify":1703492268042,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks","listText":"like and comment thanks","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/326475679","repostId":"1199156489","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199156489","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":1615452861,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199156489?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-11 16:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US Daylight Saving Time","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199156489","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"From 02:00 U.S. East time March 14(this Sunday),the North America region entered daylight saving tim","content":"<p>From&nbsp;02:00&nbsp;U.S.&nbsp;East&nbsp;time&nbsp;March&nbsp;14(this&nbsp;Sunday),the&nbsp;North America&nbsp;region&nbsp;entered&nbsp;daylight saving&nbsp;time,until&nbsp;02:00&nbsp;U.S.&nbsp;East&nbsp;time&nbsp;ends&nbsp;on&nbsp;November&nbsp;7,2021.</p><p>So,starting&nbsp;on&nbsp;Monday,March&nbsp;14,the&nbsp;U.S.&nbsp;market&nbsp;will&nbsp;open&nbsp;and&nbsp;close&nbsp;one&nbsp;hour&nbsp;ahead&nbsp;of&nbsp;schedule&nbsp;during&nbsp;north&nbsp;american&nbsp;daylight saving time,i.e.,U.S.&nbsp;trading&nbsp;time&nbsp;will&nbsp;be&nbsp;changed&nbsp;to&nbsp;21:30&nbsp;beijing&nbsp;time&nbsp;to&nbsp;04:00&nbsp;a.m.the&nbsp;next&nbsp;day,pre-trade&nbsp;time&nbsp;will&nbsp;be&nbsp;16:00&nbsp;to&nbsp;21:30,after-trade&nbsp;time&nbsp;will&nbsp;be&nbsp;04:00&nbsp;to&nbsp;8:00.</p><p><b>What is daylight saving time?</b></p><p>The DST is the practice of moving clocks forward by one hour during summer months so that daylight lasts longer into evening.

But we’re now well through the worst of the valuation adjustment for the banks,” he said.\nGarner also noted Australia’s growth is rebounding “very significantly” and said the country is “one of the geographies that’s probably handled the Covid situation better than elsewhere.”\nAustralia’s economy expanded at a faster-than-expected pace in the fourth quarter of 2020, and there are signs that 2021 has started on a firm footing too, helped by massive monetary and fiscal stimulus.\nThe economy accelerated 3.1% in the three months to December, data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed.\nIndia: V-shaped bounce\nSimilarly, Garner is bullish on India’s management of the pandemic, saying that it has handled the crisis better than some countries in Latin America and the Middle East.\nAccording to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University,India has the second highest number of Covid-19 cases, behind only the United States. More than 157,900 people have died of complications related to the disease. But the country has recorded a steady decline in the number of daily new deaths since October, as the government continues to makeprogress in its vaccination rollout.\n\n In terms of GDP growth and the kind of countries that we expect will exhibit the most V-shaped bounce back – India is right at the forefront of that.Jonathan GarnerMORGAN STANLEY\n\nIndia stands to benefit frompolices and reforms announced in the February budgetthat are aimed at getting growth back on track, according to Garner. He explained that the budget included “constructive” measures such as continued fiscal support for the economy. There were also announcements related to the government’s commitment to privatizing state-owned assets, he said.\n“In terms of GDP growth and the kind of countries that we expect will exhibit the most V-shaped bounce back – India is right at the forefront of that,” Garner added.\nS&P Global Ratings predicted in February thatIndia is on track to recoverfrom the pandemic-induced contraction and South Asia’s largest economy could grow 10% in fiscal 2022. But, some analysts have warned thata potential consumer credit crisis could derail progress.\nSingapore: helped by higher oil prices\nWhile Singapore handled the pandemic well by global standards, it stands to gain from other countries reopening their economies and implementing policies aimed at higher spending and output expansion.\nThe city-state is also set to benefit from higher oil prices, according to Garner.\nSingapore is anet importer of oil. The country is a major player in the global offshore and marine industry where local companies dominate the market for oil rigs construction. It is also an important source of refined oil. Developments in these areas directly affect the Singapore economy as well as the stock market.\nBrent crude futuresjumped above $70 for the first time in more than a yearon Monday, after Saudi Arabia said its oil facilities were targeted by missiles and drones on Sunday. But the global benchmark could not continue the momentum and prices retreated to below $70 after the kingdom said its oil facilities did not suffer any significant structural damage.\nSingapore is “positively geared to the upside surprise that we’re getting in oil, which again it’s an interesting feature of the current environment. The energy sector is starting to work quite well globally,” he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":96,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":389698567,"gmtCreate":1612760375659,"gmtModify":1703764681228,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"please reply&nbsp;","listText":"please reply&nbsp;","text":"please reply","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/389698567","repostId":"2108336760","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2108336760","pubTimestamp":1612756871,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2108336760?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-08 12:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here's how the FAANG companies stack up this earnings season","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2108336760","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"The FAANG stocks dominate earnings season — and rightly so.\nWhat’s remarkable is that, despite their","content":"<p>The FAANG stocks dominate earnings season — and rightly so.</p>\n<p>What’s remarkable is that, despite their size, they usually post big increases in revenue and display pricing power.

If sales per share grow faster than sales, it means the average share count has declined — share buybacks have outweighed the issuance of new shares to raise money (hardly likely for this group) or the shoveling of new shares to executives as part of compensation packages. A rising share count means shareholders’ ownership positions are being diluted. This lowers earnings per share and can be a drag on returns if it continues in a sustained way over long periods.</p>\n<p>A company’s gross margin is its sales, less the cost of goods sold, divided by sales. It doesn’t reflect overhead expenses, but it does factor in discounting, coupons, commissions or other selling expenses. If a company’s sales are expanding but its gross margin is contracting, it may be a sign that competition is becoming more difficult. If the gross margin is expanding while sales are growing, it’s a healthy sign of demand for products and services. Any one quarter or any one pandemic can lead to shifts in gross margins, but it is still a useful trend to follow.</p>\n<p>All the above sales results are fantastic. Gross margins may have gone either way, but they also show the advantage of certain business models. Facebook’s gross margin is very impressive, even if it has narrowed a bit. Microsoft’s gross margin expanded and that high number reflects the success of its continued movement toward subscription distribution.</p>\n<p><b>Operating margins</b></p>\n<p>The following operating margins are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by sales.

It won't be the last time the world stops to watch such an event in the same way that people, who would otherwise never watch a race, are glued to the screen when F1 drivers crash into the barrier or each other. Pundits have tried to turn this into more than it is, but until people turn up with actual pitchforks in front of Mr. Griffin's $60M penthouse pad in Chicago, I am inclined to side with George Pearkes' take on the matter; move on, nothing (much) to see. People with time on their hands, and a stimulus cheque(?), have decided to take a punt. On the face of it, they have been successful, but most will have bought and sold too late to avoid the gut-wrenching losses that are all but inevitable in the context of the kind of volatility, which GameStop has exhibited recently.

It won't be the last time the world stops to watch such an event in the same way that people, who would otherwise never watch a race, are glued to the screen when F1 drivers crash into the barrier or each other. Pundits have tried to turn this into more than it is, but until people turn up with actual pitchforks in front of Mr. Griffin's $60M penthouse pad in Chicago, I am inclined to side with George Pearkes' take on the matter; move on, nothing (much) to see. People with time on their hands, and a stimulus cheque(?), have decided to take a punt. On the face of it, they have been successful, but most will have bought and sold too late to avoid the gut-wrenching losses that are all but inevitable in the context of the kind of volatility, which GameStop has exhibited recently.

That includes allowing listings of dual-class shares and attracting U.S.-listed Chinese companies to seek a secondary listing in Hong Kong, he said.\nHong Kong in 2020 was one of the top markets for listings globally as Chinese firms such as e-commerce giant JD.com and gaming company NetEase raised funds through secondary listings.\nIn total, the city’s stock exchange saw 132 initial public offerings worth $32.1 billion, and 199 further offerings worth $62.9 billion last year, according to data compiled by consultancy PwC.\nWith such “robust” capital markets activity, raising the trading stamp duty may offer Hong Kong “a quick solution” to increase its tax revenue in the short term, said Stanley Ho, a partner for corporate tax advisory at consultancy KPMG China.\n“However, it is also important for Hong Kong’s capital markets to stay competitive with global financial markets, many of which are trending towards reducing or removing such duties,” Ho said in a statement after Chan’s budget speech.\nChan said he remains confident of Hong Kong’s prospects as an international financial center.\nHe explained that the government is working on promoting Hong Kong as a center for sustainable and green finance, developing further the city’s fixed income markets and encouraging more activity in the asset and wealth management sectors.\nOn the stock market sell-off after his announcement of the trading tax hike, Chan said Hong Kong wasn’t the only one experiencing a “downward adjustment” following a previous run-up.\n“So, I would not be bothered by temporary fluctuations in the market. What we believe is we continue to work hard to enhance the offering of our market to further enhance the competitiveness and attractiveness of the Hong Kong market,” he said.\n“We will continue to attract inflow of international capital.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":369548564,"gmtCreate":1614064193258,"gmtModify":1634551331065,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","listText":"like and comment thanks&nbsp;","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/369548564","repostId":"1117195825","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1117195825","pubTimestamp":1614063429,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1117195825?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-02-23 14:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"As Volatility Fades, Can Cyclicals Shine?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1117195825","media":"iShares Market Insights","summary":"Summary\n\nEven after fading from the late January peak, the VIX Index ended the month 45% above where","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Even after fading from the late January peak, the VIX Index ended the month 45% above where it started.

After a strong start, stocks surrendered gains as investors tried to process triple-digit volatility in a handful of small-cap, heavily shorted names.</p>\n<p>While the damage to markets was minimal, the boost to volatility was not. Even after fading from the late January peak, the VIX Index ended the month 45% above where it started. That jump represents the largest month-over-month increase since the fall of 2018.</p>\n<p>While volatility has started to fade, the VIX Index and other measures of equity volatility remain well above their long-term average. Technical dislocations may continue to cause short-term disruptions, but two factors favor a further drop in equity volatility: an improving economy and exceptionally easy monetary conditions.</p>\n<p>Starting with the economy, while a few economic indicators have softened there is ample evidence that the economy continues to improve. Economic surprise indexes remain solidly in positive territory, suggesting most economic data is beating expectations. With the vaccine rollout accelerating and more stimulus on the way, I would expect further improvement.</p>\n<p>The second factor favoring lower volatility is easy money. Regardless of the precise metric - credit spreads, money supply growth, real interest rates - money has rarely been this cheap or available. This combination of an improving economy and favorable financial conditions typically coincides with low volatility.</p>\n<p>For example, a simple one-factor model using credit spreads as a proxy for financial conditions explains about 55% of the variation in the VIX Index (see Chart 1). Based on this relationship, volatility is still way too high. As credit markets proved resilient during the recent sell-off, high yield spreads remain tight. Narrow spreads suggest the VIX should be trading closer to 15 than 25. Looking at different measures and combinations of factors leads to a similar conclusion: Equity volatility has further to fall.</p>\n<p>High yield spreads vs VIX Index 1994 to present</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c26775fb3ad7b326b828b0db79d3f03a\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"854\"><span>Source: Bloomberg, as of 1/31/21.</span></p>\n<p><b>Lower Volatility = Cyclicals &gt; Defensives</b></p>\n<p>Easy money and an improving economy suggest not only lower volatility but further equity gains. That said, those gains are not likely to be shared equally.</p>\n<p>Assuming volatility continues to grind lower, history suggests favoring cyclical over defensive stocks. Based on 20 years of data, when the VIX is falling the MSCI Cyclical - Defensive Return Spread Index posts an average monthly gain of around 1%.

That jump represents the largest month-over-month increase since the fall of 2018.\nTechnical dislocations may continue to cause short-term disruptions, but two factors favor a further drop in equity volatility: an improving economy and exceptionally easy monetary conditions.\nEconomic surprise indexes remain solidly in positive territory, suggesting most economic data is beating expectations.\n\nDespite a stellar 2020, market momentum did not survive January. After a strong start, stocks surrendered gains as investors tried to process triple-digit volatility in a handful of small-cap, heavily shorted names.\nWhile the damage to markets was minimal, the boost to volatility was not. Even after fading from the late January peak, the VIX Index ended the month 45% above where it started. That jump represents the largest month-over-month increase since the fall of 2018.\nWhile volatility has started to fade, the VIX Index and other measures of equity volatility remain well above their long-term average. Technical dislocations may continue to cause short-term disruptions, but two factors favor a further drop in equity volatility: an improving economy and exceptionally easy monetary conditions.\nStarting with the economy, while a few economic indicators have softened there is ample evidence that the economy continues to improve. Economic surprise indexes remain solidly in positive territory, suggesting most economic data is beating expectations. With the vaccine rollout accelerating and more stimulus on the way, I would expect further improvement.\nThe second factor favoring lower volatility is easy money. Regardless of the precise metric - credit spreads, money supply growth, real interest rates - money has rarely been this cheap or available. This combination of an improving economy and favorable financial conditions typically coincides with low volatility.\nFor example, a simple one-factor model using credit spreads as a proxy for financial conditions explains about 55% of the variation in the VIX Index (see Chart 1). Based on this relationship, volatility is still way too high. As credit markets proved resilient during the recent sell-off, high yield spreads remain tight. Narrow spreads suggest the VIX should be trading closer to 15 than 25. Looking at different measures and combinations of factors leads to a similar conclusion: Equity volatility has further to fall.\nHigh yield spreads vs VIX Index 1994 to present\nSource: Bloomberg, as of 1/31/21.\nLower Volatility = Cyclicals > Defensives\nEasy money and an improving economy suggest not only lower volatility but further equity gains. That said, those gains are not likely to be shared equally.\nAssuming volatility continues to grind lower, history suggests favoring cyclical over defensive stocks. Based on 20 years of data, when the VIX is falling the MSCI Cyclical - Defensive Return Spread Index posts an average monthly gain of around 1%. When the drop in volatility is large, 10% or more, average cyclical outperformance expands to nearly 2%.\nGiven this dynamic, I would continue to favor cyclical expressions including machinery, specialty chemicals, and cyclical parts of technology. At the same time, I would remain underweight the more overpriced parts of consumer staples, particularly household and food products. For investors, the conclusion is not just to maintain equity exposure, but to favor those parts of the market most likely to benefit from a normalization of both the economy and (hopefully) financial markets.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":93,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":324354194,"gmtCreate":1615968583318,"gmtModify":1703495644992,"author":{"id":"3574988941786432","authorId":"3574988941786432","name":"seowy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/305b7a9bc5e7d32e7fa275cec78b5809","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574988941786432","idStr":"3574988941786432"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like and comment thanks","listText":"like and comment thanks","text":"like and comment thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/324354194","repostId":"1158940318","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158940318","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1615967371,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1158940318?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-17 15:49","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"China shares end flat as market eyes Fed outcome, Sino-U.S. meeting","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158940318","media":"Reuters","summary":"SHANGHAI, March 17 (Reuters) - China stocks ended flat on Wednesday as investors shifted focus to th","content":"<p>SHANGHAI, March 17 (Reuters) - China stocks ended flat on Wednesday as investors shifted focus to the outcome of a U.S. Federal Reserve policy meeting, to see if the central bank could start raising interest rates sooner than expected.</p>\n<p>Fed policymakers are expected this week to forecast that the U.S. economy will grow in 2021 at the fastest rate in decades as the COVID-19 vaccination campaign gathers pace and a $1.9 trillion relief package washes through to households.</p>\n<p>At the close, the Shanghai Composite index was down 0.03% at 3,445.55, while the blue-chip CSI300 index was up 0.42% to 5,100.86.</p>\n<p>The financial sector sub-index was lower by 1.42%, the consumer staples sector rose 1.58%, the real estate index fell 0.96% and the healthcare sub-index gained 0.49%.</p>\n<p>The smaller Shenzhen index ended up 0.97% and the start-up board ChiNext Composite index was higher by 1.198%.</p>\n<p>Gains were driven by agricultural shares after the government unveiled measures to support the development of Taiwan-funded companies in agriculture and forestry in mainland China.</p>\n<p>The sector also gained support after the central Henan province said it would strictly prevent illegal genetically modified seeds from entering the market this year.</p>\n<p>At the close, Winall Hi-tech Seed Co Ltd jumped 7.7%, Hefei Fengle Seed Co Ltd leapt 6.4%, and Zhongnongfa Seed Industry Co Ltd jumped 4.9%.</p>\n<p>Some investors said they would closely watch the first high-level, in-person contact later this week between Beijing and Washington since U.S. President Joe Biden took office.

After reaching a new all-time high ahead of its Q1 earnings release the stock failed to hold on to gains, subsequently breaking below key uptrend support from the November low as well as the March crash low.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbf73c0a267751d31b24346c5a08ba49\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"227\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Bloomberg</span></p><p>The fact that the bearish break has come in spite of widespread bullish retail sentiment and a hugely positive earnings surprise should be taken as a reason for caution. We continue to see a move back down to the USD100 pivot area which marked the breakout in response to the earnings release in July. Such a move would represent a further 21% decline from current levels.</p><p><b>Q1 Earnings Were Unequivocally Strong But Already Priced In</b></p><p>Apple's Q1 earnings figures were incredibly strong with net income coming in at USD28.8bn, up 29% year over year. This means that in the final quarter of 2020 Apple’s profits represented over 10% of all SPX profits, while for the full year they represented 6% of all SPX profits. The problem that Apple holders have, however, is that equity prices are not driven by current earnings but by expectations of earnings, including expectations of earnings far into the future.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/211d1cecb8ce2b7d30026b015fa80708\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Bloomberg</span></p><p>Apple's market value as a share of the SPX has shown a strong tendency to lead changes in its share of earnings as the chart below shows. The run-up in Apple's relative market size from early 2019 to mid-2020 foreshadowed the rise in its share of total earnings. The recent share price weakness suggests investors have already priced in the recent earnings outperformance and are now showing some concern for future growth prospects.</p><p><b>The Law Of Large Numbers Will Set In</b></p><p>Despite the recent share price weakness Apple still trades at an 8% premium to the SPX in terms of its trailing PE ratio, currently at 34.5x, and a 28% premium in terms of forward PE, currently at 29.1. While Apple's high profit margin is often seen as justification of a valuation premium, the weak outlook for growth from such a high base suggests it does not.</p><p>Notwithstanding the ongoing growth in services and wearables income, iPhone revenues made up almost 60% of revenues in Q1, bringing in almost USD66bn. While up 17% year over year this figure is up only 7% from the previous peak seen in Q1 2018, a growth rate barely in line with inflation despite massive increases in selling prices. On a trailing 12-month basis iPhone revenues remain below their Q418 peak. Largely thanks to stagnating iPhone sales, EBITDA is no higher than it was in 2015 on a trailing 12-month basis. Apple is already becoming a victim of its own success as a lot of people already have iPhones and they tend to last a long time.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f51c192203f1a33f6c976a1981238ec3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Bloomberg</span></p><p>We fully expect Apple to continue growing revenues and profits, but we do not believe extrapolating one quarter's earnings report provides a good measure of the sustainable growth rate. With 2020 earnings roughly 6% of total SPX earnings, Apple will almost certainly face the impact of the law of large numbers. Extrapolating recent growth rates over the long term results in unfeasible outcomes. For instance, Apple's profits are expected to grow at 10% per year over the long term, according to Bloomberg.</p><p>If SPX profits grow at their trend growth rate of 4%, this would mean that Apple's share of total SPX earnings would rise from the current level of 6% to 18% by 2041. Even at 7% growth Apple's share of total SPX profits would almost double to 11% by 2041. Historical precedents do not bode well for such growth outperformance.</p><p>The following chart shows the correlation between the total sales of the largest companies in the U.S. by market cap over the past 20 years and subsequent sales growth. On the x-axis is the combined sales as a share of GDP of the top 10 U.S. companies by market cap, excluding energy companies due to the volatile nature of their sales. On the y-axis is the combined annual sales growth of these companies over the subsequent 10 years relative to nominal GDP growth. There is a strong tendency for sales and profit growth to fall as a company's size increases relative to the size of the economy.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f15aac69df36dc1e93ad21e27d704768\" tg-width=\"628\" tg-height=\"422\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Bloomberg</span></p><p><b>Rising Bond Yields Present A Major Headwind To Valuations</b></p><p>Throughout the decline in government bond yields over the past year investors have seen Apple's stock as an alternative to government bonds due to its high profit margins and scope for dividends to rise over the long term allowing cash flows to exceed those from bonds.

After reaching a new all-time high ahead of its Q1 earnings release the stock failed to hold on to gains, subsequently breaking below key uptrend support from the November low as well as the March crash low.Source: BloombergThe fact that the bearish break has come in spite of widespread bullish retail sentiment and a hugely positive earnings surprise should be taken as a reason for caution. We continue to see a move back down to the USD100 pivot area which marked the breakout in response to the earnings release in July. Such a move would represent a further 21% decline from current levels.Q1 Earnings Were Unequivocally Strong But Already Priced InApple's Q1 earnings figures were incredibly strong with net income coming in at USD28.8bn, up 29% year over year. This means that in the final quarter of 2020 Apple’s profits represented over 10% of all SPX profits, while for the full year they represented 6% of all SPX profits. The problem that Apple holders have, however, is that equity prices are not driven by current earnings but by expectations of earnings, including expectations of earnings far into the future.Source: BloombergApple's market value as a share of the SPX has shown a strong tendency to lead changes in its share of earnings as the chart below shows. The run-up in Apple's relative market size from early 2019 to mid-2020 foreshadowed the rise in its share of total earnings. The recent share price weakness suggests investors have already priced in the recent earnings outperformance and are now showing some concern for future growth prospects.The Law Of Large Numbers Will Set InDespite the recent share price weakness Apple still trades at an 8% premium to the SPX in terms of its trailing PE ratio, currently at 34.5x, and a 28% premium in terms of forward PE, currently at 29.1. While Apple's high profit margin is often seen as justification of a valuation premium, the weak outlook for growth from such a high base suggests it does not.Notwithstanding the ongoing growth in services and wearables income, iPhone revenues made up almost 60% of revenues in Q1, bringing in almost USD66bn. While up 17% year over year this figure is up only 7% from the previous peak seen in Q1 2018, a growth rate barely in line with inflation despite massive increases in selling prices. On a trailing 12-month basis iPhone revenues remain below their Q418 peak. Largely thanks to stagnating iPhone sales, EBITDA is no higher than it was in 2015 on a trailing 12-month basis. Apple is already becoming a victim of its own success as a lot of people already have iPhones and they tend to last a long time.Source: BloombergWe fully expect Apple to continue growing revenues and profits, but we do not believe extrapolating one quarter's earnings report provides a good measure of the sustainable growth rate. With 2020 earnings roughly 6% of total SPX earnings, Apple will almost certainly face the impact of the law of large numbers. Extrapolating recent growth rates over the long term results in unfeasible outcomes. For instance, Apple's profits are expected to grow at 10% per year over the long term, according to Bloomberg.If SPX profits grow at their trend growth rate of 4%, this would mean that Apple's share of total SPX earnings would rise from the current level of 6% to 18% by 2041. Even at 7% growth Apple's share of total SPX profits would almost double to 11% by 2041. Historical precedents do not bode well for such growth outperformance.The following chart shows the correlation between the total sales of the largest companies in the U.S. by market cap over the past 20 years and subsequent sales growth.

The Mountain View, California-based company offers individuals access to over 4,000 Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from 200 educational institutions and corporations. The company also offers over two dozen degree programs at prices lower than what a learner would pay at a traditional, in-person institution. As the company grows its offering, it will be able to compete head-to-head with other “online program management” (OPM) providers, such as 2U(NASDAQ:TWOU), which is already publicly traded, and Noodle Partners.</p><p>Ng’sshareholder letter in the S-1articulated clearly just what the company is about:</p><blockquote>“We believe that education is the source of human progress. In today’s economy in which the skills needed to succeed are rapidly evolving, education is becoming more important than ever. As automation and digital disruption are poised to replace unprecedented numbers of jobs worldwide, giving workers the opportunity to upskill and reskill will be crucial to raising global living standards and increasing social equity. Online education will play a critical role, enabling anyone, anywhere, to gain the valuable skills they need to earn a living in an increasingly digital economy.”</blockquote><p>The filing lists Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as underwriters. The number of shares and the price range of the proposed offering are yet to be determined.According to PitchBook data, Coursera’s most recent valuation in the private markets was $2.5 billion. To date, the company has raised $464 million in venture capital, most recently,$130 million in a Series F roundlast July. Coursera’s biggest institutional shareholders are New Enterprise Associates (18.3% of company stock), G Squared (15.9%) and Kleiner Perkins (9.2%).</p><p><b>Operating Results</b></p><p>The company earned $293 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, up 59% from 2019. Net losses widened by about $20 million year-on-year, reaching $66.8 million in 2020. Revenues shot up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on traditional education. In tandem with rising demand, operating costs associated with the company’s services rose, largely driven by the freemium content and marketing expenses. Coursera added over 12,000 new degree learners across the two years ended December 31, 2020 at an average acquisition cost of just below $2,000. The number of registered users rose by 65% year-on-year in 2020. Coursera’s accumulated deficit since its founding stood at $343.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The company does not expect to turn a profit in the foreseeable future.</p><p>The company’sCoursera for Campus,launched in late 2019to enable colleges to offer its library of MOOCs to their students, has been a key driver of recent revenue growth. At the start of the pandemic, Coursera made the program free to tertiary institutions until Sept. 30, 2020. Over 4,000 tertiary institutions from across the world signed up for the program, which, according to the company’s S-1 filing, makes it, “one of our fastest growing offerings”. As of December 31, 2020, over 130 tertiary institutions were paying for it.</p><p>At this point, it is hard to predict what the end of the pandemic would have on the company’s operating results.</p><p><b>The Strategy and Market Opportunity</b></p><p>Coursera is one of the most disruptive firms in the world. It has a flywheel approach to value creation, with significant price-to-cost advantages versus its competition. The company reported that about half of its new degree students in 2020 had been previously registered with Coursera and that its average student acquisition cost was less than $2,000.

Buying when the company turns a profit is the safer bet.Coursera (COURS), the online learning platform founded in 2012 by former Stanford University computer science professors Daphne Koller and Andrew Ng, filed itsIPO prospectuswith the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Mountain View, California-based company offers individuals access to over 4,000 Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from 200 educational institutions and corporations. The company also offers over two dozen degree programs at prices lower than what a learner would pay at a traditional, in-person institution. As the company grows its offering, it will be able to compete head-to-head with other “online program management” (OPM) providers, such as 2U(NASDAQ:TWOU), which is already publicly traded, and Noodle Partners.Ng’sshareholder letter in the S-1articulated clearly just what the company is about:“We believe that education is the source of human progress. In today’s economy in which the skills needed to succeed are rapidly evolving, education is becoming more important than ever. As automation and digital disruption are poised to replace unprecedented numbers of jobs worldwide, giving workers the opportunity to upskill and reskill will be crucial to raising global living standards and increasing social equity. Online education will play a critical role, enabling anyone, anywhere, to gain the valuable skills they need to earn a living in an increasingly digital economy.”The filing lists Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as underwriters. The number of shares and the price range of the proposed offering are yet to be determined.According to PitchBook data, Coursera’s most recent valuation in the private markets was $2.5 billion. To date, the company has raised $464 million in venture capital, most recently,$130 million in a Series F roundlast July. Coursera’s biggest institutional shareholders are New Enterprise Associates (18.3% of company stock), G Squared (15.9%) and Kleiner Perkins (9.2%).Operating ResultsThe company earned $293 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, up 59% from 2019. Net losses widened by about $20 million year-on-year, reaching $66.8 million in 2020. Revenues shot up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on traditional education. In tandem with rising demand, operating costs associated with the company’s services rose, largely driven by the freemium content and marketing expenses. Coursera added over 12,000 new degree learners across the two years ended December 31, 2020 at an average acquisition cost of just below $2,000. The number of registered users rose by 65% year-on-year in 2020. Coursera’s accumulated deficit since its founding stood at $343.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The company does not expect to turn a profit in the foreseeable future.The company’sCoursera for Campus,launched in late 2019to enable colleges to offer its library of MOOCs to their students, has been a key driver of recent revenue growth. At the start of the pandemic, Coursera made the program free to tertiary institutions until Sept. 30, 2020. Over 4,000 tertiary institutions from across the world signed up for the program, which, according to the company’s S-1 filing, makes it, “one of our fastest growing offerings”. As of December 31, 2020, over 130 tertiary institutions were paying for it.At this point, it is hard to predict what the end of the pandemic would have on the company’s operating results.The Strategy and Market OpportunityCoursera is one of the most disruptive firms in the world. It has a flywheel approach to value creation, with significant price-to-cost advantages versus its competition. The company reported that about half of its new degree students in 2020 had been previously registered with Coursera and that its average student acquisition cost was less than $2,000. Its average student acquisition cost is lower than the industry standard. The edu-tech platform is able to efficiently acquire learners at scale because of the huge number of free, high-quality courses that it offers in partnership with top educational institutions and corporations; its ability to personalize content based on its wealth of data; the strength of word-of-mouth promotion by learners; the profitability of its affiliate paid marketing channel.The platform offers a number of education tracks, for example:Specializations: A learner can pay between $39 and $99 a month for job-specific content across over 500 categories.MasterTrack Certificates: For a quarter to a year, a learner can earn a certificate issued by a university-issued certificate. Prices range from $2,000 to $6,000.Bachelor’s or Master’s Degrees: Fees range from $9,000 to $45,000.Coursera for Enterprise: Through this platform, businesses, educational institutions and governments can deploy content to their learners.In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Coursera partnered with over 330 government agencies across 30 U.S. states and cities and 70 countries as part of itsCoursera Workforce Recovery Initiative, which gave governments the chance to offer unemployed workers free access to thousands of business, data science, and technology courses from companies such as Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN)and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL).The company has 77 million registered learners, as well as over 2,000 businesses (including 25% of Fortune 500 companies) and 100 government agencies who paid for its enterprise offerings. The majority of its revenue (51%) was earned outside of the United States. Converting only a fraction of its 77 million registered users into paid users would change the economics of customer acquisition.
