Ended June 30, 2021\n1.4\n\n\n2020\n1.6\n\n\n\nThe Rule of 40 is a software industry rule of thumb that says that as long as the combined revenue growth rate and EBITDA percentage rate equal or exceed 40%, the firm is on an acceptable growth/EBITDA trajectory.\nCWAN’s most recent calculation was 41% during the six months ended June 30, 2021, so the firm has performed well in this regard, per the table below:\n\n\n\n\nRule of 40\nCalculation\n\n\nRecent Rev.

Each are likely to have mod","content":"<p>Traders this week will be focused on new data on inflation and spending. Each are likely to have moderated last month after initial reopening surges in demand and price increases earlier this year.</p>\n<p>On the inflation front, the Labor Department's August Consumer Price Index (CPI) is set for release on Tuesday. The print is expected to decelerate on both a monthly and annual basis, suggesting the peak growth rates in prices for consumer goods and service may already have passed during this economic recovery.</p>\n<p>Consensus economists expect the broadest measure of CPI will grow 0.4% in August compared to July, and by 5.3% compared to August 2020. In July, the headline CPI grew 0.5% month-on-month and by 5.4% year-on-year, with the latter representing the fastest annual growth rate since 2008.</p>\n<p>Excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI likely grew 0.3% month-on-month in August to match July's pace. However, on a year-over-year basis, the CPI excluding food and energy prices likely ticked down to a 4.2% rate, or a hair below July's 4.3% rate. That had, in turn, moderated from a 4.5% annual rate in June, which had marked the fastest rise since 1991.</p>\n<p>The multi-year highs in consumer price increases so far this year have coincided with the broadening economic recovery, as more Americans became vaccinated and were more inclined to spend. This especially drove up prices in goods and services closely tied to renewed consumer mobility.</p>\n<p>Used car and truck prices, for instances, rose at least 7.3% in each of April, May and June before decelerating sharply to an only 0.2% rise in July — suggesting an initial wave of demand was finally being unwound as consumers reacclimatized to going back out and companies' supply chains began to catch up with demand. Similar trends have been seen in prices for airline tickets, motor vehicle insurance and apparel prices, which pulled back in July after spiking earlier in late spring and early summer.</p>\n<p>Other categories of consumer prices have seen more sustained increases, especially in food and energy prices. Other services-related areas of consumption have also seen sustained rises, with consumers returning to in-person activities like dining out at bars and restaurants and leisure traveling. The CPI's \"services less energy services\" category has on a monthly basis in every month so far in 2021 except January, mostly recently at a 0.3% clip.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b3ba3dcdb70c21ee0f288bf7cd56e371\" tg-width=\"4949\" tg-height=\"3345\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Muhlenberg, PA - March 18: Redner's Quick Shoppe employee Julie Zezenski and Manager Pete Ostrowski work behind the counter at the Redner's Quick Shoppe on Tuckerton Road in Muhlenberg township Thursday afternoon March 18, 2021.

Its outsized increases earlier this year — along with increases in the Federal Reserve's preferred inflationary gauge, core personal consumption expenditures — have suggested to some economists that the central bank might be prudent to alter its monetary policies to stave off a sustained overheating of the economy.</p>\n<p>Federal Reserve policymakers, however, have largely stuck to the conviction that inflation will prove transitory in this economy. Central bank officials like Fed Chair Jerome Powell further suggested that a premature policy move could actually backfire by cutting short the recovery in the labor market.</p>\n<p>\"The spike in inflation is so far largely the product of a relatively narrow group of goods and services that have been directly affected by the pandemic and the reopening of the economy,\" Powell said during his speech at the central bank's Jackson Hole symposium in late August.</p>\n<p>\"Some prices — for example, for hotel rooms and airplane tickets — declined sharply during the recession and have now moved back up close to pre-pandemic levels,\" he said. \"The 12-month window we use in computing inflation now captures the rebound in prices but not the initial decline, temporarily elevating reported inflation. These effects, which are adding a few tenths to measured inflation, should wash out over time.\"</p>\n<h2>Retail sales</h2>\n<p>Another closely watched economic data report out this week will be Thursday's retail sales print from the U.S. Commerce Department.</p>\n<p>Consumer spending has retreated in recent months as a boost from stimulus checks and other government support faded compared to earlier this year. In July, retail sales fell by a worse-than-expected 1.1%, which was more than three times greater than the drop expected.</p>\n<p>The August retail sales report will capture more of the impact on spending from the latest jump in coronavirus cases, with infections related to the Delta variant's spread having picked up mid-summer. Consensus economists expect to see sales fall for a back-to-back month, dropping by 0.8% for the month.</p>\n<p>Some service-related spending already slowed in July, suggesting consumers were already going out somewhat less frequently as infections mounted. Food services and drinking places sales increase by 1.7% in July, following a 2.4% monthly gain in June.</p>\n<p>The August retail sales report, however, will not capture any impact on spending related to the national expiration of enhanced unemployment benefits. Throughout the summer, about half of U.S. states had ended pandemic-era federal jobless benefits to try and incentivize unemployed individuals to return to work. The other half of states ended these benefits by Sept. 6.</p>\n<p>Future retail sales reports for September and onward may reflect slowing sales as a result of the expiration of this aid, some economists suggested.</p>\n<p>\"Spending by the unemployed, especially low-income households, has been supported by enhanced unemployment benefits,\" Rubeela Farooqi, chief economist at High Frequency Economics, wrote in a note. \"Absent this support, spending outcomes will surely be different, especially if households are less secure about job prospects going forward.\"</p>\n<h2>Economic calendar</h2>\n<ul>\n <li><p><b>Monday: </b>Monthly budget statement, August (-$302.1 billion during prior month)</p></li>\n <li><p><b>Tuesday: </b>NFIB Small Business Optimism, August (99.7 during prior month);

Each are likely to have moderated last month after initial reopening surges in demand and price increases earlier this year.\nOn the inflation front, the Labor Department's August Consumer Price Index (CPI) is set for release on Tuesday. The print is expected to decelerate on both a monthly and annual basis, suggesting the peak growth rates in prices for consumer goods and service may already have passed during this economic recovery.\nConsensus economists expect the broadest measure of CPI will grow 0.4% in August compared to July, and by 5.3% compared to August 2020. In July, the headline CPI grew 0.5% month-on-month and by 5.4% year-on-year, with the latter representing the fastest annual growth rate since 2008.\nExcluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI likely grew 0.3% month-on-month in August to match July's pace. However, on a year-over-year basis, the CPI excluding food and energy prices likely ticked down to a 4.2% rate, or a hair below July's 4.3% rate. That had, in turn, moderated from a 4.5% annual rate in June, which had marked the fastest rise since 1991.\nThe multi-year highs in consumer price increases so far this year have coincided with the broadening economic recovery, as more Americans became vaccinated and were more inclined to spend. This especially drove up prices in goods and services closely tied to renewed consumer mobility.\nUsed car and truck prices, for instances, rose at least 7.3% in each of April, May and June before decelerating sharply to an only 0.2% rise in July — suggesting an initial wave of demand was finally being unwound as consumers reacclimatized to going back out and companies' supply chains began to catch up with demand. Similar trends have been seen in prices for airline tickets, motor vehicle insurance and apparel prices, which pulled back in July after spiking earlier in late spring and early summer.\nOther categories of consumer prices have seen more sustained increases, especially in food and energy prices. Other services-related areas of consumption have also seen sustained rises, with consumers returning to in-person activities like dining out at bars and restaurants and leisure traveling. The CPI's \"services less energy services\" category has on a monthly basis in every month so far in 2021 except January, mostly recently at a 0.3% clip.\nMuhlenberg, PA - March 18: Redner's Quick Shoppe employee Julie Zezenski and Manager Pete Ostrowski work behind the counter at the Redner's Quick Shoppe on Tuckerton Road in Muhlenberg township Thursday afternoon March 18, 2021.

Its outsized increases earlier this year — along with increases in the Federal Reserve's preferred inflationary gauge, core personal consumption expenditures — have suggested to some economists that the central bank might be prudent to alter its monetary policies to stave off a sustained overheating of the economy.\nFederal Reserve policymakers, however, have largely stuck to the conviction that inflation will prove transitory in this economy. Central bank officials like Fed Chair Jerome Powell further suggested that a premature policy move could actually backfire by cutting short the recovery in the labor market.\n\"The spike in inflation is so far largely the product of a relatively narrow group of goods and services that have been directly affected by the pandemic and the reopening of the economy,\" Powell said during his speech at the central bank's Jackson Hole symposium in late August.\n\"Some prices — for example, for hotel rooms and airplane tickets — declined sharply during the recession and have now moved back up close to pre-pandemic levels,\" he said. \"The 12-month window we use in computing inflation now captures the rebound in prices but not the initial decline, temporarily elevating reported inflation. These effects, which are adding a few tenths to measured inflation, should wash out over time.\"\nRetail sales\nAnother closely watched economic data report out this week will be Thursday's retail sales print from the U.S. Commerce Department.\nConsumer spending has retreated in recent months as a boost from stimulus checks and other government support faded compared to earlier this year. In July, retail sales fell by a worse-than-expected 1.1%, which was more than three times greater than the drop expected.\nThe August retail sales report will capture more of the impact on spending from the latest jump in coronavirus cases, with infections related to the Delta variant's spread having picked up mid-summer. Consensus economists expect to see sales fall for a back-to-back month, dropping by 0.8% for the month.\nSome service-related spending already slowed in July, suggesting consumers were already going out somewhat less frequently as infections mounted. Food services and drinking places sales increase by 1.7% in July, following a 2.4% monthly gain in June.\nThe August retail sales report, however, will not capture any impact on spending related to the national expiration of enhanced unemployment benefits. Throughout the summer, about half of U.S. states had ended pandemic-era federal jobless benefits to try and incentivize unemployed individuals to return to work. The other half of states ended these benefits by Sept. 6.\nFuture retail sales reports for September and onward may reflect slowing sales as a result of the expiration of this aid, some economists suggested.\n\"Spending by the unemployed, especially low-income households, has been supported by enhanced unemployment benefits,\" Rubeela Farooqi, chief economist at High Frequency Economics, wrote in a note. \"Absent this support, spending outcomes will surely be different, especially if households are less secure about job prospects going forward.\"\nEconomic calendar\n\nMonday: Monthly budget statement, August (-$302.1 billion during prior month)\nTuesday: NFIB Small Business Optimism, August (99.7 during prior month); Real Average Weekly Earnings, year-over-year, August (-0.9% during prior month); Consumer Price Index, month-over-month, August (0.4% expected, 0.5% in July); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, August (0.3% expected, 0.3% in July); Consumer Price Index, year-over-year, August (5.3% expected, 5.4% in July); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (August (4.2% expected, 4.3% in August)\nWednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended September 10 (-1.9% during prior week); Empire Manufacturing, September (20.0 expected, 18.3 during prior month); Import Price Index, month-over-month, August (0.3% expected, 0.3% in July); Industrial Production, month-over-month, August (0.6% expected, 0.9% in July); Capacity Utilization, August (76.4% in August, 76.1% in July); Manufacturing Production, August (0.4% expected, 1.4% in July)\nThursday: Retail Sales Advance, month-over-month, August (-0.8% expected, -1.1% in July); Retail Sales excluding autos and gas, August (-0.5% expected, -0.7% in July); Initial jobless claims, week ended September 11; Continuing Claims, week ended September 4; Philadelphia Fed Business Outlook Index, September (20.0 expected, 19.4 in August); Business inventories, July (0.5% expected, 0.8% in June); Total Net TIC Flows, July ($31.5 billion in June); Total Long-term TIC Flows, July ($110.9 billion in June)\nFriday: University of Michigan Sentiment, September preliminary (72.7 expected, 70.3 in August)\n\nEarnings calendar\n\nMonday: Oracle (ORCL) after market close\nTuesday: Lennar (LEN), FuelCell Energy (FCEL) before market open  \nWednesday: Weber (WEBR) before market open\nThursday: No notable reports scheduled for release\nFriday: No notable reports scheduled for release","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":463,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":172764291,"gmtCreate":1626995332913,"gmtModify":1633769073423,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[开心]&nbsp;","listText":"[开心]&nbsp;","text":"[开心]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/172764291","repostId":"1154266565","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154266565","pubTimestamp":1626955588,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1154266565?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-22 20:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How to invest as the Delta variant takes hold","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154266565","media":"cnn","summary":"New York When the market is plunging like it did last Friday and on Monday, it's tempting to throw in the towel and sell.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished with a gain of about 9 points after being up more than 100 points earlier in the session, closing at 34,292.29. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite added about 0.2% for its own record of 14,528.33.\nHomebuilder stocks moved higher after S&P Case-Shiller saidhome prices rose more than 14% in Aprilcompared to the prior year. Five U.S. cities, including Seattle, saw their largest annual increase on record. Shares of PulteGroup rose 2%.\nSemiconductor stocks gained strength later in the session, with Skyworks and Advanced Micro Devices climbing 4.5% and 2.8%, respectively. General Electric boosted the industrials sector, rising over 1% afterGoldman Sachs named the stock a top idea.\nThe market has churned out a series of record highs in recent weeks, but the gains have been relatively modest and some strategists have pointed to weak market breadth, measured by the performance of the average stock and the number of individual names making new highs, as a potential area of concern.\nOn Tuesday, there were slightly more declining stocks in the S&P 500 than those that rose during the session.\nHowever, the diminished breadth and volatility could simply be a natural pause during the summer months ahead of the busy earnings season in July, said Bill McMahon, the chief investment officer for active equity strategies at Charles Schwab Investment Management.\n\"I think people are in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, so it's not surprising to see volatility decline and breadth worsen a tad,\" McMahon said, adding that concern about the spreading Delta variant of Covid-19 could also be weighing on stocks.\nShares of Morgan Stanley jumped more than 3% after the bank said it willdouble its quarterly dividend. The bank also announced a $12 billion stock buyback program. The announcement follows last week's stress tests by the Federal Reserve, which all 23 major banks passed. However, some other bank stocks gave up early gains and weighed on the broader indexes despite increasing their own payout plans.\nThe Conference Board's consumer confidence reading for June came in higher than expected, adding to the bullish readings about the economic recovery.\nWith the market entering the final trading days of June and the second quarter, the S&P 500 is on track to register its fifth straight month of gains. The Nasdaq is pacing for its seventh positive month in the last eight. The Dow, however, is in the red for the month, and on track to snap a four-month winning streak.\nSo far in 2021, the S&P 500 has added 14%, while the Nasdaq has added more than 12% with the Dow close behind.\nJPMorgan quantitative strategist Dubravkos Lakos-Bujas said on CNBC's \"Squawk Box\" that the market appeared to have near-term upside.\n\"The growth policy backdrop in our opinion still remains supportive for risk assets in general, certainly including equities. At the same time, the positioning is not really stretched to where we are in a problematic territory. So we do think there is still a runway. ... The summer period, the next two months, is where I think the market continues to break out,\" the strategist said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":383,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":150562656,"gmtCreate":1624922133275,"gmtModify":1633947109981,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[微笑]&nbsp;[微笑]&nbsp;","listText":"[微笑]&nbsp;[微笑]&nbsp;","text":"[微笑]

equities will rally through the remainder of 2021, as the economic recovery strengthens, according to Ned Davis Research.\nThe firm entered 2021 overweight equities and underweight bonds, analysts said in a research report issued this week. That’s likely to persist, though they’re watching for signs of excessive optimism that could lead to complacency and leave global equities “vulnerable to disappointment.”\nThis year, earnings reports have been beating expectations at a rising rate, but that momentum could begin to slow. Even so, the firm expects setbacks in the single digits, rather than a double-digit bear market.\nThe firm projects global growth of 6.1%, with the services sector most likely to lead the recovery, and that near-term price surges will be temporary.\nThe Covid pandemic is still the greatest risk to its economic outlook, made greater by people hesitant to get the vaccine, the slow rollout in emerging economies, and the potential to remove monetary and fiscal stimulus too early, Ned Davis Research said. Earlier this week, the Federal Reserve announced it’s keeping interest rates unchanged, raised its 2021 inflation expectation to 3.4% and signaled it would keep its monthly asset-buying program in place.\nNed Davis Research has been bearish on the dollar all year and expects the currency’s ongoing weakness to continue in inverse correlation with gold.\n“As it remains unlikely that the nominal and real interest rate differentials will increase the chances of a dollar recovery in the second half, the ongoing dollar weakness should remain consistent with the uptrend in gold,” analysts said in the report.\nU.S. yields are lower but continue to be attractive on a nominal basis after accounting for hedging costs.\nThe firm continues to favor credit and said even though outperformance has stalled recently, breadth and momentum are still positive. Credit conditions are favorable and should support high-yield bonds through the second half, analysts noted.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":358,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":162663876,"gmtCreate":1624061686595,"gmtModify":1634023457795,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","listText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","text":"[微笑]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/162663876","repostId":"2144774740","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2144774740","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"The leading daily newsletter for the latest financial and business news. 33Yrs Helping Stock Investors with Investing Insights, Tools, News & More.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Investors","id":"1085713068","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/608dd68a89ed486e18f64efe3136266c"},"pubTimestamp":1624030096,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2144774740?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-18 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Adobe Getting Lift From Economic Reopening Post-Pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144774740","media":"Investors","summary":"Software giant Adobe is benefiting as the economy reopens following the Covid-19 pandemic, a senior executive says.","content":"<p>Software giant <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a></b> is benefiting as the economy reopens as the Covid-19 pandemic wanes, a senior executive says.

Phil Murphy signed a series of laws that legalize the possession of marijuanafor recreational use in New Jersey.Related: ACB,CRON,TLRY,CGC,HEXO,MJ,THCX,APHA,CRON,YOLO,OGI,POTX,GWPH,OTCQB:PHOT,OTCQX:TRTC,OTCQB:CANN,OTCPK:ERBB,OTCPK:GRNH,OTCQB:PMCB,OTCQB:CVSI,OTC:FITX,OTCPK:HEMP,OTCQB:CBDS,OTCPK:BLOZF,OTCQX:KSHB,OTCPK:MSRT,OTCQX:SPRWF,OTCPK:AGTK,OTCQB:AMMJ,OTC:VAPE,OTCQB:GBLX,OTCQB:AERO,OTCPK:MCOA,OTCPK:HMLSF, OTC:FSPM,OTC:EAPH,OTCQB:SRNA,OTCPK:RMHB,OTCPK:PLPL,OTCQB:MNTR,OTCPK:EDXC,OTCQX:THCBF,OTC:FSPM,OTC:EAPH,OTCQB:SRNA,OTCPK:RMHB","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":85,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861283146,"gmtCreate":1632497753285,"gmtModify":1632715620904,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"K","listText":"K","text":"K","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861283146","repostId":"1114004721","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114004721","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":1632496493,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1114004721?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-24 23:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"IPO opening reminder: Clearwater Analytics opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO price","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114004721","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Sept 24) Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO pric","content":"<p>(Sept 24)&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CWAN\">Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc.</a></b> opens for trading at $23.8, up about 32% from IPO price.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/076505c7b70dbe2ad6cfcae8c44f52cb\" tg-width=\"902\" tg-height=\"557\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Company &amp; Technology</b></p>\n<p>Boise, Idaho-based Clearwater was founded to develop a SaaS platform to simplify investment accounting and analysis for asset managers, insurance companies and large corporations.</p>\n<p>Management is headed by Chief Executive Officer Sandeep Sahai, who has been with the firm since September 2016 and was previously CEO of Solmark, an investment partnership.</p>\n<p>The company’s primary offerings include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Investment accounting and reporting</p></li>\n <li><p>Performance measurement</p></li>\n <li><p>Compliance monitoring</p></li>\n <li><p>Risk analysis</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Clearwater has received at least $421 million in notes payable in equity investment from investors including Welsh Carson, Permira, Warburg Pincus and Dragoneer.</p>\n<p><b>Customer Acquisition</b></p>\n<p>The firm pursues client relationships with asset managers, insurance companies and large corporations via a direct sales and marketing force that is focused on the United States.</p>\n<p>CWAN also has international clients and will seek to expand its international presence post-IPO.</p>\n<p>Clearwater handles data on over $5.6 trillion in assets between more than 1,000 clients.</p>\n<p>Sales and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have varied as revenues have increased, as the figures below indicate:</p>\n<table>\n <colgroup></colgroup>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p><b>Sales and Marketing</b></p></td>\n   <td><p><b>Expenses vs. Revenue</b></p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Period</p></td>\n   <td><p>Percentage</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Six Mos.

In my view, this is justified as the firm is growing revenue at a significantly higher rate of growth.\nAfter a difficult period during 2020 where the firm produced operating losses, 2021 has seen a return to operating and net profits with impressive growth as well.\nGiven CWAN’s growth trajectory and the investment management software industry’s strong growth potential in the years ahead, the IPO is worth a close look.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":353,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":147768740,"gmtCreate":1626392092780,"gmtModify":1633927271658,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[呆住]&nbsp;","listText":"[呆住]&nbsp;","text":"[呆住]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/147768740","repostId":"2151573133","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":885,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":322125885,"gmtCreate":1615785410647,"gmtModify":1703492919775,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[笑哭]&nbsp;","listText":"[笑哭]&nbsp;","text":"[笑哭]","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5b924f732ae16db34ab17c9864caf1a","width":"1080","height":"2291"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/322125885","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":46,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":868438422,"gmtCreate":1632698160366,"gmtModify":1632798578059,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/868438422","repostId":"1142057327","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":604,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":167119062,"gmtCreate":1624251525956,"gmtModify":1634008849287,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[开心]&nbsp;","listText":"[开心]&nbsp;","text":"[开心]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/167119062","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":308,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":350693559,"gmtCreate":1616198293371,"gmtModify":1634526799220,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[呆住]&nbsp;","listText":"[呆住]&nbsp;","text":"[呆住]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/350693559","repostId":"1199154789","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199154789","pubTimestamp":1616164372,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199154789?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-19 22:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed Disappoints Market, Lets SLR Relief Expire: What Happens Next","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199154789","media":"zerohedge","summary":"As washinted at, and discussed in depth here,the Fed decided -

He concluded his note by writing that \"given that our call for a zero-to-negative FRA-OIS spread by the end of June was predicated on the end of SLR extension and an assumption that the Fed will try to fix a quantity problem with prices, not quantities, today’s adjustments mean that FRA-OIS won’t trade all the way down to zero or negative territory.\"</p><blockquote>FRA-OIS from here will be a function of how tight FX swaps will trade relative to OIS, but Treasury bills trading at deeply sub-zero rates is no longer a risk...</blockquote><p>While Bills have occasionally dipped into the negative territory on occasion, so far they have avoided a fullblown plunge into NIRP, which may be just the positive sign the market is waiting for to ease the nerves associated with the sudden and largely unexpected end of the SLR exemption.</p><p>* *&nbsp; *</p><p>Finally, for those curious what the immediate market impact will be, NatWest strategist Blake Gwinn writes that the Fed announcement that they’re letting regulatory exemptions for banks expire at the end of the month \"really threads the needle and \"assuages concerns about the potential long-term impact on the markets\" as<b>the SLR \"ends it but defuses a lot of the knee-jerk market reaction” by pledging to address the current design and calibration of the supplementary leverage ratio to prevent strains from developing</b>.</p><p>“I was never worried about a day-one bank puke of Treasuries or drawdown in repo or anything like that on no renewal,” Gwinn said. “My concern was the longer run,” like as reserves continue to rise, would the SLR “become a nuisance and drag on Treasuries and spreads” Gwinn concludes that with the statement, the Fed is<b>\"really speaking to those fears and basically saying, ‘don’t worry, we are on it’.”</b></p><p>Well, with yields spiking to HOD in early quad-witch trading, the market sure seems quite skeptical that the Fed is on anything.</p>","source":"lsy1583725640930","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Relief ends March 31, banks raise capital & de-lever Impact on BanksRatesFront-End RatesGoing back to Zoltan, let's recallthat the repo gurualso cautioned that \"ending the exemption of reserves and Treasuries from the calculation of the SLR may mean that U.S. banks will turn away deposits and reserves on the margin (not Treasuries) to leave more room for market-making activities,and these flows will swell further money funds’ inflows coming from TGA drawdowns.\"More importantly, Zoltan does not expect broad chaos in repo or broader markets, and instead provides a more benign view on the negligible impact the SLR has had (and will be if it is eliminated), as he explained in a note from Tuesday.How to determine if Zoltan's benign view is correct? He concluded his note by writing that \"given that our call for a zero-to-negative FRA-OIS spread by the end of June was predicated on the end of SLR extension and an assumption that the Fed will try to fix a quantity problem with prices, not quantities, today’s adjustments mean that FRA-OIS won’t trade all the way down to zero or negative territory.\"FRA-OIS from here will be a function of how tight FX swaps will trade relative to OIS, but Treasury bills trading at deeply sub-zero rates is no longer a risk...While Bills have occasionally dipped into the negative territory on occasion, so far they have avoided a fullblown plunge into NIRP, which may be just the positive sign the market is waiting for to ease the nerves associated with the sudden and largely unexpected end of the SLR exemption.* *  *Finally, for those curious what the immediate market impact will be, NatWest strategist Blake Gwinn writes that the Fed announcement that they’re letting regulatory exemptions for banks expire at the end of the month \"really threads the needle and \"assuages concerns about the potential long-term impact on the markets\" asthe SLR \"ends it but defuses a lot of the knee-jerk market reaction” by pledging to address the current design and calibration of the supplementary leverage ratio to prevent strains from developing.“I was never worried about a day-one bank puke of Treasuries or drawdown in repo or anything like that on no renewal,” Gwinn said. “My concern was the longer run,” like as reserves continue to rise, would the SLR “become a nuisance and drag on Treasuries and spreads” Gwinn concludes that with the statement, the Fed is\"really speaking to those fears and basically saying, ‘don’t worry, we are on it’.”Well, with yields spiking to HOD in early quad-witch trading, the market sure seems quite skeptical that the Fed is on anything.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":322122427,"gmtCreate":1615785348769,"gmtModify":1703492918737,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","listText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","text":"[微笑]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/322122427","repostId":"1108838813","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108838813","pubTimestamp":1615780854,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1108838813?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-15 12:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Koss: Don't Buy The Hype On This Highly Shorted Meme Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108838813","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nKoss is a small electronics company that got caught up in the meme stock runup, but has lit","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Koss is a small electronics company that got caught up in the meme stock runup, but has little hope for massive growth in the future.</li>\n <li>Meme stocks trade on hype instead of fundamentals, so be careful not to lose your shirt.</li>\n <li>Koss offers massive upside during the next short squeeze, but should be avoided as a long-term investment.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Koss(NASDAQ:KOSS)is a headphone and electronic accessories company that has gotten a lot of attention recently due to the rise of \"Meme Stocks\" like GameStop (GME) and AMC (AMC).</p>\n<p>Retail traders began focusing on stocks with low float and&nbsp;high short interest&nbsp;since the beginning of the global pandemic in 2020.

The company, unlike its rivals Nio (NYSE:NIO) and XPeng (NYSE:XPEV), focuses on EREV vehicles, or a combination of BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) and an ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) vehicles. The concept behind an EREV is that a vehicle runs on a battery until it runs out of energy, then a small engine creates energy for the electric motors using fossil fuels to significantly increase the vehicles' driving range. In other words, EREV is a vehicle that takes the best of BEV and ICE.</p>\n<p><b>Bull Thesis</b></p>\n<p>The world is in a transitory phase away from ICE vehicles to cleaner forms of transportation, and Li Auto is in a potential position to benefit from this movement. Here are reasons why:</p>\n<ol>\n <li><p>Li Auto's EREV vehicle is showing strong sales growth</p></li>\n <li><p>Li Auto's revenue growth and profitability potential is attractive</p></li>\n <li><p>Li Auto has a healthy balance sheet and attractive valuation compared to its competitors</p></li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>Bear Thesis</b></p>\n<p>All companies with exponential growth and amazing stories come at a risk, and Li Auto is no exception.</p>\n<ol>\n <li><p>The world will eventually move to complete electric vehicles or BEV, but Li Auto's transition from EREV to BEV might not be successful. Also, will customers continue to seek EREV vehicles if BEV vehicles' range significantly improves?</p></li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>Sales Growth</b></p>\n<p>Li Auto's vehicle, Li One's, sales data is growing at an unimaginable speed. Li Auto delivered&nbsp;32,624&nbsp;vehicles in 2020. Surprisingly, about 44% of the sales came from Q4 alone, which means that Li Auto's delivery is increasing significantly quarter over quarter. In 2021, Li Auto delivered&nbsp;5379&nbsp;vehicles in January,2300&nbsp;vehicles in February, and 4900 vehicles in March. In total, the company delivered 12579 vehicles for the quarter ending in March, which is about a 344% increase year over year. Also. because the management team estimated sales between&nbsp;10500 to 1150&nbsp;0vehicle deliveries in the first quarter, Li Auto proved that their EREV vehicle is still in high demand. Thus, Li Auto will most likely report great earnings and show strong revenue growth in 2021 as well.</p>\n<p><b>Li Auto's Growth</b></p>\n<p>Li Auto started selling its vehicle Li-One in late 2019, and Li Auto's revenue has been growing at an exponential rate since then.Li Auto had a revenue&nbsp;of 40.9 million dollars in December 2019 quarter. In the September 2020 quarter, Li Auto had revenue of 369.8 million dollars, and in December 2020 quarter, Li Auto had revenue of 635.3 million dollars.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/29b00f665fd99abd1f2effa9f0f6beda\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"></p>\n<p>Li Auto's quarter-over-quarter revenue growth from the quarter ending in September to December in 2020 was 72%. On top of this,According to Yahoo Finance, Li Auto's 2021 full-year revenue estimate is about 2.9 billion dollars, which is up over 100% from 1.4 billion dollars in 2020 revenue. Li Auto's exponential growth cannot be denied. Revenues show that Li Auto is growing faster than XPeng and Nio at the moment, and if this trend can continue, Li Auto will be one of the best investments for investors.</p>\n<p>However, there is a problem. Li Auto's revenue growth was solely based on a single EREV vehicle while the world is transitioning to BEV vehicles. EREV vehicles do have advantages with longer range than BEV vehicles, but regulators and consumers will eventually move toward BEV vehicles. Also, in my opinion, Li Auto's most significant competitive advantage is the fact that its vehicle is an EREV, which means that customers are favoring Li One's long-range compared to its competitors. For example, according to&nbsp;Li Auto,Li-One has a range of 500 miles while Nio's ET7 has a range of&nbsp;310 miles and up to 435 miles. This is a significant risk. BEV vehicles' ranges are increasing significantly fast, which means that Li Auto's competitive advantage is decreasing. New batteries such as solid-state batteries will increase the range even further for BEV vehicles. This has the potential to dent Li Auto's sales. Also, once the company transitions to BEV vehicles, customers might migrate to Li Auto's competitors since the competitive advantage of being EREV disappeared. After all, the BEV vehicle market in China is ultra-competitive with multiple start-ups and traditional automakers. I believe this risk is going to be a problem for Li Auto until the company can prove that its BEV vehicles can retain similar sales as its EREV vehicles.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3ccf9dba33140a395eb7a7378d7eec4\" tg-width=\"598\" tg-height=\"270\"><span>Source - The picture shows a layout of an EREV vehicle</span></p>\n<p>On the bright side, Li Auto is closest to profitability among Nio and XPeng. Li Auto had a net income of&nbsp;16.5 million dollars&nbsp;in the quarter ending in December 2020 while&nbsp;Nio&nbsp;and XPeng lost 228.6 and 418.5 million dollars, respectively. Although Li Auto posted positive net income during the December quarter, the company is still expected to report a small amount of loss at about&nbsp;-0.06&nbsp;per share before reaching profitability in 2022. All in all, Li Auto seems to be managing its cost better than its competitors, while growing at a faster pace.</p>\n<p>Li Auto's ability to grow exponentially while being close to profitability is showing strong bullish signs for the company; however, questions of Li Auto's sustainability with EREV vehicles remain.</p>\n<p><b>Balance Sheet and Valuation</b></p>\n<p>Li Auto, in my opinion, has a very healthy balance sheet, and when considering that the company is growing at an exponential rate, the balance sheet seems even better. Li Auto has 4.3 billion dollars in cash and short-term investments with only 78 million dollars in long-term debt. Furthermore, the company's total liability to total asset ratio (L/S) is at only 18%. Considering that Li Auto is barely losing money, I think it's more than reasonable to say that Li Auto has a healthy balance sheet. If I were to address any concern in the balance sheet, it would be 213.3 million dollars in capital lease, but this will not be a significant problem for the company with its current growth.</p>\n<p>Li Auto also has a very attractive valuation compared to Nio and XPeng at 12.5 p/s ratios compared to Nio's 18.45 and XPeng's 13.63. Li Auto is trading cheaper than these companies with healthier balance sheets and stronger growth. However, Li Auto's cheaper valuation might be from the fact that the company is not selling BEV vehicles.</p>\n<p>I cannot deny that Li Auto's valuation in terms of p/s and its balance sheet is great; however, I think the EV industry as a whole is slightly overvalued. For example, Li Auto is expected to report&nbsp;0.18&nbsp;eps in 2022, which means that Li Auto is trading at about 111 times its 2022 earnings. Also, Nio and XPeng are not even expected to be profitable by 2022. I understand that earnings do not matter for these high-growth companies, but eventually, I think, earnings will matter, eventually.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Although I have more reasons to be bullish for Li Auto than being bearish, I am still doubtful. The revenue is indeed growing at an unimaginable pace, and it is also true that Li Auto has an attractive valuation compared to its competitors while having a healthier balance sheet. But, the uncertainty of sustainability of an EREV vehicle, and the demand for EREV as BEVs get better is troubling. Also, Li Auto's transition from EREV to BEV might not be as smooth as many investors are expecting.

The company, unlike its rivals Nio (NYSE:NIO) and XPeng (NYSE:XPEV), focuses on EREV vehicles, or a combination of BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) and an ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) vehicles. The concept behind an EREV is that a vehicle runs on a battery until it runs out of energy, then a small engine creates energy for the electric motors using fossil fuels to significantly increase the vehicles' driving range. In other words, EREV is a vehicle that takes the best of BEV and ICE.\nBull Thesis\nThe world is in a transitory phase away from ICE vehicles to cleaner forms of transportation, and Li Auto is in a potential position to benefit from this movement. Here are reasons why:\n\nLi Auto's EREV vehicle is showing strong sales growth\nLi Auto's revenue growth and profitability potential is attractive\nLi Auto has a healthy balance sheet and attractive valuation compared to its competitors\n\nBear Thesis\nAll companies with exponential growth and amazing stories come at a risk, and Li Auto is no exception.\n\nThe world will eventually move to complete electric vehicles or BEV, but Li Auto's transition from EREV to BEV might not be successful. Also, will customers continue to seek EREV vehicles if BEV vehicles' range significantly improves?\n\nSales Growth\nLi Auto's vehicle, Li One's, sales data is growing at an unimaginable speed. Li Auto delivered 32,624 vehicles in 2020. Surprisingly, about 44% of the sales came from Q4 alone, which means that Li Auto's delivery is increasing significantly quarter over quarter. In 2021, Li Auto delivered 5379 vehicles in January,2300 vehicles in February, and 4900 vehicles in March. In total, the company delivered 12579 vehicles for the quarter ending in March, which is about a 344% increase year over year. Also. because the management team estimated sales between 10500 to 1150 0vehicle deliveries in the first quarter, Li Auto proved that their EREV vehicle is still in high demand. Thus, Li Auto will most likely report great earnings and show strong revenue growth in 2021 as well.\nLi Auto's Growth\nLi Auto started selling its vehicle Li-One in late 2019, and Li Auto's revenue has been growing at an exponential rate since then.Li Auto had a revenue of 40.9 million dollars in December 2019 quarter. In the September 2020 quarter, Li Auto had revenue of 369.8 million dollars, and in December 2020 quarter, Li Auto had revenue of 635.3 million dollars.\n\nLi Auto's quarter-over-quarter revenue growth from the quarter ending in September to December in 2020 was 72%. On top of this,According to Yahoo Finance, Li Auto's 2021 full-year revenue estimate is about 2.9 billion dollars, which is up over 100% from 1.4 billion dollars in 2020 revenue. Li Auto's exponential growth cannot be denied. Revenues show that Li Auto is growing faster than XPeng and Nio at the moment, and if this trend can continue, Li Auto will be one of the best investments for investors.\nHowever, there is a problem. Li Auto's revenue growth was solely based on a single EREV vehicle while the world is transitioning to BEV vehicles. EREV vehicles do have advantages with longer range than BEV vehicles, but regulators and consumers will eventually move toward BEV vehicles. Also, in my opinion, Li Auto's most significant competitive advantage is the fact that its vehicle is an EREV, which means that customers are favoring Li One's long-range compared to its competitors. For example, according to Li Auto,Li-One has a range of 500 miles while Nio's ET7 has a range of 310 miles and up to 435 miles. This is a significant risk. BEV vehicles' ranges are increasing significantly fast, which means that Li Auto's competitive advantage is decreasing. New batteries such as solid-state batteries will increase the range even further for BEV vehicles. This has the potential to dent Li Auto's sales. Also, once the company transitions to BEV vehicles, customers might migrate to Li Auto's competitors since the competitive advantage of being EREV disappeared. After all, the BEV vehicle market in China is ultra-competitive with multiple start-ups and traditional automakers. I believe this risk is going to be a problem for Li Auto until the company can prove that its BEV vehicles can retain similar sales as its EREV vehicles.\nSource - The picture shows a layout of an EREV vehicle\nOn the bright side, Li Auto is closest to profitability among Nio and XPeng. Li Auto had a net income of 16.5 million dollars in the quarter ending in December 2020 while Nio and XPeng lost 228.6 and 418.5 million dollars, respectively. Although Li Auto posted positive net income during the December quarter, the company is still expected to report a small amount of loss at about -0.06 per share before reaching profitability in 2022. All in all, Li Auto seems to be managing its cost better than its competitors, while growing at a faster pace.\nLi Auto's ability to grow exponentially while being close to profitability is showing strong bullish signs for the company; however, questions of Li Auto's sustainability with EREV vehicles remain.\nBalance Sheet and Valuation\nLi Auto, in my opinion, has a very healthy balance sheet, and when considering that the company is growing at an exponential rate, the balance sheet seems even better. Li Auto has 4.3 billion dollars in cash and short-term investments with only 78 million dollars in long-term debt. Furthermore, the company's total liability to total asset ratio (L/S) is at only 18%. Considering that Li Auto is barely losing money, I think it's more than reasonable to say that Li Auto has a healthy balance sheet. If I were to address any concern in the balance sheet, it would be 213.3 million dollars in capital lease, but this will not be a significant problem for the company with its current growth.\nLi Auto also has a very attractive valuation compared to Nio and XPeng at 12.5 p/s ratios compared to Nio's 18.45 and XPeng's 13.63. Li Auto is trading cheaper than these companies with healthier balance sheets and stronger growth. However, Li Auto's cheaper valuation might be from the fact that the company is not selling BEV vehicles.\nI cannot deny that Li Auto's valuation in terms of p/s and its balance sheet is great; however, I think the EV industry as a whole is slightly overvalued. For example, Li Auto is expected to report 0.18 eps in 2022, which means that Li Auto is trading at about 111 times its 2022 earnings. Also, Nio and XPeng are not even expected to be profitable by 2022. I understand that earnings do not matter for these high-growth companies, but eventually, I think, earnings will matter, eventually.\nConclusion\nAlthough I have more reasons to be bullish for Li Auto than being bearish, I am still doubtful. The revenue is indeed growing at an unimaginable pace, and it is also true that Li Auto has an attractive valuation compared to its competitors while having a healthier balance sheet. But, the uncertainty of sustainability of an EREV vehicle, and the demand for EREV as BEVs get better is troubling. Also, Li Auto's transition from EREV to BEV might not be as smooth as many investors are expecting. I will be cheering for Li Auto and wait until the company's management team provides clearer guidelines for BEV vehicles. Therefore, I believe that this company is perfect for risk-tolerant investors or investors seeking extremely high risk and high reward ratios. I would advise investors to be careful even when being optimistic about Li Auto's success.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":199,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":359692821,"gmtCreate":1616389389063,"gmtModify":1634526098019,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[得意]&nbsp;","listText":"[得意]&nbsp;","text":"[得意]","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ce826a730b81ae23e96c493d9cb7c04b","width":"1080","height":"3123"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/359692821","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":84,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":123096205,"gmtCreate":1624402598107,"gmtModify":1634006802780,"author":{"id":"3575498845973925","authorId":"3575498845973925","name":"f123bb0","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","listText":"[微笑]&nbsp;","text":"[微笑]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/123096205","repostId":"1118580429","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118580429","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":1624376537,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1118580429?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-22 23:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Krispy Kreme eyes near $4 bln valuation in U.S. IPO","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118580429","media":"Reuters","summary":"June 22 (Reuters) - Krispy Kreme Inc is looking to raise as much as $640 million through a U.S. init","content":"<p>June 22 (Reuters) - Krispy Kreme Inc is looking to raise as much as $640 million through a U.S. initial public offering, according to a regulatory filing on Tuesday, valuing the donut chain at nearly $4 billion.
