That includes building a robust e-commerce business. In 2021, online sales accounted for12% of its revenue.</p>\n<p>In its Q4 2021 conference call in early June, CEO Mark Smucker said that 55% of its brands are taking market share compared to just 26% 18 months ago. In addition, it’s now taken market share in six straight quarters.</p>\n<p>It continues to look for acquisitions in its three operating segments: Pet food, coffee, and snacks.</p>\n<p>In 2021, it generated $1.26 billion in free cash flow, $150 million above its latest projection. More importantly, it has an attractiveFCF margin of 15.8%.

That would be<b>CNA Financial</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CNA</u></b>).It owns 89.5%of the property and casualty insurer. The company’s three other operating businesses are Boardwalk Pipelines (100% ownership), Loews Hotels (100%), and Altium Packaging (53%).</p>\n<p>In March, Loews sold 47% of the packaging company to GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, for a pre-tax gain of$490 million. Bringing in the financial partner will help it scale Altium that much faster. It’s a no-brainer.</p>\n<p>In addition to those four businesses, it has $1.3 billion in net cash. Because it controls a significant portion of CNA’s stock, CNA trades at a discount to its property and casualty peers.</p>\n<p>A sum-of-the-parts valuation suggests L stock is worth more than $14.3 billion. It might not have Ryan Cohen leading the charge, but it remains an attractive investment for risk-averse investors.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>GameStop Isn’t Going to Do Nearly as Well as These 3 Promising Stocks</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\">\nGameStop Isn’t Going to Do Nearly as Well as These 3 Promising Stocks\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-22 20:48 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/07/gme-stock-isnt-going-to-do-nearly-as-well-as-these-3-promising-stocks/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The idea of buying GME stock at almost $200 makes little sense compared to the alternatives.\n\nWith the at-the-market sale of5 million sharesofGameStop(NYSE:GME) stock on June 22, GameStop now has 76.8...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/07/gme-stock-isnt-going-to-do-nearly-as-well-as-these-3-promising-stocks/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/07/gme-stock-isnt-going-to-do-nearly-as-well-as-these-3-promising-stocks/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1182919039","content_text":"The idea of buying GME stock at almost $200 makes little sense compared to the alternatives.\n\nWith the at-the-market sale of5 million sharesofGameStop(NYSE:GME) stock on June 22, GameStop now has 76.8 million shares outstanding for a market capitalization of $14.8 billion.\nSource: Shutterstock / mundissima\nThe last time I wrote about GameStop in late May, I continued to be amazed byGME stock’s resilience.\nSince then, it’s lost 21% of its value and trades under $200, although it has regained some of its losses since mid-July.\nI continue to look to GameStop’s investor relations page for any information about its so-called transformation by e-commerce god, Ryan Cohen.

In 2021, online sales accounted for12% of its revenue.\nIn its Q4 2021 conference call in early June, CEO Mark Smucker said that 55% of its brands are taking market share compared to just 26% 18 months ago. In addition, it’s now taken market share in six straight quarters.\nIt continues to look for acquisitions in its three operating segments: Pet food, coffee, and snacks.\nIn 2021, it generated $1.26 billion in free cash flow, $150 million above its latest projection. More importantly, it has an attractiveFCF margin of 15.8%. By comparison,GameStop’s is 1.7%.\nAnother Alternative\nI find it hard to believe that a capital allocator as historically strong asLoews(NYSE:L) has a market cap that’s less than GameStop at $14.3 billion.\nAt the moment, Loews only has a controlling stake in one public company. That would beCNA Financial(NYSE:CNA).It owns 89.5%of the property and casualty insurer. The company’s three other operating businesses are Boardwalk Pipelines (100% ownership), Loews Hotels (100%), and Altium Packaging (53%).\nIn March, Loews sold 47% of the packaging company to GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, for a pre-tax gain of$490 million. Bringing in the financial partner will help it scale Altium that much faster. It’s a no-brainer.\nIn addition to those four businesses, it has $1.3 billion in net cash. Because it controls a significant portion of CNA’s stock, CNA trades at a discount to its property and casualty peers.\nA sum-of-the-parts valuation suggests L stock is worth more than $14.3 billion. It might not have Ryan Cohen leading the charge, but it remains an attractive investment for risk-averse investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":358,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":170674225,"gmtCreate":1626431759667,"gmtModify":1633926813981,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Got destroyed??

While the Reddit traders have applauded all of the new executive hires at GameStop, they have been particularly enthusiastic about Ryan Cohen joining the company and seem to rally around the stock every time he comments publicly on the video game retailer’s future.\nGive GME Stock Time to Normalize\nGME stock has come to a fork in the road. The company and its stock are either going to experience a flameout and go down in infamy, or management will right the ship and ensure that GameStop remains a going concern as a hybrid online and brick-and-mortar video game retailer. Time will tell which way GameStop ultimately goes. But right now, GameStop is a troubled company that has brought in a new executive team to turn things around after a tumultuous time for its stock and shareholders.\nAs such, its hard to recommend investors take a position in GameStop. Until GME stock legitimately stabilizes and demonstrates that it has normalized, investors should stay away from it. The median price target on GameStop shares is currently $73.75, implying a 65% decline from current levels. At this point, GameStop shares look to have more downside than upside.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":174,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":150193367,"gmtCreate":1624888963559,"gmtModify":1633947451300,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apes don need you to do stock coverage forgme, apes know what they are doing.

That said, investors should aware that the company is under investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for its share run-up, that was primarily orchestrated by the Reddit commmunity WallStreetBets (WSB).</p>\n<p>Many WSB traders publicly disclosed their identities while promoting the stock in the past six months, leading to them becoming prime targets for possible litigation or criminal investigations. Meanwhile, GameStop is taking advantage of the run-up to issue more stock at the expense of existing shareholders. Is the stock still a safe bet for potential investors?</p>\n<h2>The good news</h2>\n<p>GameStop had a spectacular quarter. In Q1 2021, the company closed down 12.7% of its roughly 4,000 stores in operations. Despite this, it managed to grow its sales by 25% year-over-year to $1.277 billion.</p>\n<p>At the same time, GameStop's operating loss narrowed to $21.6 million from $98.8 million a year ago. Thanks to a once-in-a-lifetime short squeeze, the company was able to offer additional equity to pay back all its debt and start afresh. It currently has more than $700 million in cash and investments on its balance sheet.</p>\n<h2>The bad news</h2>\n<p>After the earnings release, GameStop shares fell by as much as 27% in a single trading session. In addition, the company announced it would issue up to five million additional shares over a period of time, representing a dilution of up to 7% to its 70 million shares outstanding.</p>\n<p>That aside, there's the major risk of lawsuits against those involved in the coordinated \"pump and dump\" activities of the WSB community. Reddit user profiles of these traders are pretty much public. In fact, lawsuits have already been filed against prominent members of the community for allegedly promoting GameStop while the stock was at \"artificially high levels\".</p>\n<p>On June 9, the SEC announced it was probing GameStop concerning recent trading activities. While the investigation is still in its infancy, WSB members are growing increasingly concerned about legal and privacy issues from the fallout. The agency could potentially subpoena popular platforms like Reddit to access personal information/identities of members regarding their roles in the run-up. I believe this rapidly spreading fear, especially among those who are \"holding-on-for-dear-life\" (HODLers), is responsible for the sell-off.</p>\n<h2>What's next?</h2>\n<p>The same community that propped up GameStop's stock in a greed-fueled frenzy is equally capable of sending the shares crashing if fear takes center stage. While the company is generating solid growth, the company has a negative free cash flow of about $33.5 million per quarter, including a net cash outflow of nearly $19 million in operating activites. It's a noticeable improvement from $55.9 million negative FCF last year -- but still isn't good news yet. GameStop sold investors on the dream of a turnaround into an e-commerce giant and now has to live up to its reputation.</p>\n<p>There is a lot of uncertainty as to how profitable the new GameStop could be. Maybe its net margins will improve to 5% to 10%; perhaps it will hover around 0%, perhaps it will keep running at a loss for quite some time. After all, its gross margins actually fell 1.8 percentage points to 25.9% in Q1.

If you owned the stock coming into 2021, it was a lot of fun watching the per-share price go from about $17 to the current $212.</p>\n<p>But you shouldn't get lulled into buying the hype surrounding this meme stock. The run was partly fueled by a Reddit group, which promoted the stock and also created a short squeeze that led the price higher. That makes for great headlines, but there are strong reasons to avoid getting pulled in.</p>\n<h2>Trying to transition</h2>\n<p>GameStop, which sells video game consoles and software, was already experiencing weakening sales heading into 2020. Same-store sales (comps) fell by 19.4% in 2019, following that up with a 9.5% drop last year.</p>\n<p>While the company was experiencing strong sales growth for a long time, the last few years have been rough. It posted negative comps in four out of the last five years. That's due in no small part to a world that is changing, and people can increasingly download games from a variety of reputable companies such as Epic Games, Steam, <b> Microsoft</b>, and <b> Sony</b>.</p>\n<p>A major investor saw an opportunity to turn around GameStop's fortunes. RC Ventures, headed by Ryan Cohen, founder of the online company <b>Chewy</b>, built a 13% ownership in the company. He is now chairman of GameStop and has made key management changes, including hiring a new CEO and CFO who previously worked for <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p>Clearly, Cohen has committed his financial resources and time to making GameStop successful. While he built up impressive credentials at Chewy, which PetSmart bought for $3.4 billion (and still owns a majority stake in despite taking the company public), can he work his magic this time around?</p>\n<h2>Don't get fooled</h2>\n<p>It's a tough road to get GameStop moving in the right direction. Management didn't provide a comparable sales figure, but the fiscal first quarter's top line did increase by better than 25% to $1.3 billion for the period ended on May 1. But you shouldn't get overly excited by this impressive headline figure.</p>\n<p>It is difficult to make year-over-year comparisons since the company cut its store base by 12%.

If you owned the stock coming into 2021, it was a lot of fun watching the per-share price go from about $17 to the current $212.\nBut you shouldn't get lulled into buying the hype surrounding this meme stock. The run was partly fueled by a Reddit group, which promoted the stock and also created a short squeeze that led the price higher. That makes for great headlines, but there are strong reasons to avoid getting pulled in.\nTrying to transition\nGameStop, which sells video game consoles and software, was already experiencing weakening sales heading into 2020. Same-store sales (comps) fell by 19.4% in 2019, following that up with a 9.5% drop last year.\nWhile the company was experiencing strong sales growth for a long time, the last few years have been rough. It posted negative comps in four out of the last five years. That's due in no small part to a world that is changing, and people can increasingly download games from a variety of reputable companies such as Epic Games, Steam,  Microsoft, and  Sony.\nA major investor saw an opportunity to turn around GameStop's fortunes. RC Ventures, headed by Ryan Cohen, founder of the online company Chewy, built a 13% ownership in the company. He is now chairman of GameStop and has made key management changes, including hiring a new CEO and CFO who previously worked for Amazon.\nClearly, Cohen has committed his financial resources and time to making GameStop successful. While he built up impressive credentials at Chewy, which PetSmart bought for $3.4 billion (and still owns a majority stake in despite taking the company public), can he work his magic this time around?\nDon't get fooled\nIt's a tough road to get GameStop moving in the right direction. Management didn't provide a comparable sales figure, but the fiscal first quarter's top line did increase by better than 25% to $1.3 billion for the period ended on May 1. But you shouldn't get overly excited by this impressive headline figure.\nIt is difficult to make year-over-year comparisons since the company cut its store base by 12%. While this would make the sales growth seem more impressive, remember, GameStop was forced to close stores last year due to the pandemic. So this depressed the year-ago figure. Then, the current period benefited from Sony and Microsoft releasing new game consoles last year. This will prove to be a temporary lift since it's a one-time purchase.\nThe company will need to follow this up with improved game sales. However, software sales were down during the period. While the company blamed this on lower used game inventory, it has gotten a boost in the past when companies released new systems. This suggests that GameStop's hope for a multi-year bounce from the new systems is already facing hurdles.\nDetails lacking\nWhile the new management team has online e-commerce experience, details on a plan forward remain lacking. Undoubtedly, that is coming as the executives meet and figure out where they want to go. However, with stiff online competition, it is tough to invest in the company without knowing how it will turn itself around and get sales back to sustained profitability.\nThat's why you should leave GameStop's shares on the shelf.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":175,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160064412,"gmtCreate":1623766980736,"gmtModify":1634028623649,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Holding gme to the moon 🌙&nbsp;","listText":"Holding gme to the moon 🌙&nbsp;","text":"Holding gme to the moon 🌙","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/160064412","repostId":"1108391088","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":211,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189071438,"gmtCreate":1623236604524,"gmtModify":1634035523864,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"You get so easily distracted??

But not necessarily.\n“There is always some level of optionality in any business, no matter how prosaic,” Colas told Yahoo Finance. “And that optionality increases in value when there is a ton of cash on the balance sheet because managements have more time to explore the options embedded in the price.”\nIn other words, when these meme stocks have a ton of cash, more than they’ve ever dreamed of, a lot more might be possible, even if it’s a long shot.\n“Now, the options might not be worth much,” Colas added, “but they aren't worth zero until the cash is gone.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":363,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111334780,"gmtCreate":1622651892540,"gmtModify":1634099518681,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","text":"$GameStop(GME)$Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/111334780","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":377,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111045776,"gmtCreate":1622646318395,"gmtModify":1634099595724,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","listText":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","text":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/111045776","repostId":"2140223411","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":130445437,"gmtCreate":1621563064629,"gmtModify":1634188062161,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The only way is to the moon!!!","listText":"The only way is to the moon!!!","text":"The only way is to the moon!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/130445437","repostId":"1188975226","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1188975226","pubTimestamp":1621522126,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1188975226?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-20 22:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GameStop Never Went Back Down, So Profit Off of Those Who Think It Will","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188975226","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Naked puts are a way to profit, as long as GameStop doesn't fall drastically in value\nIt has been ov","content":"<p>Naked puts are a way to profit, as long as GameStop doesn't fall drastically in value</p>\n<p>It has been over 3 months since the first massive short squeeze in&nbsp;<b>GameStop</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>GME</u></b>) stock.

In addition to their extremely online popularity, both companies have spent the first half of 2021 leveraging their meme status to get out from major debt loads with significant new equity offerings.</p>\n<p>But HypeEquity's data indicated that GameStop's day might see a turnaround.</p>\n<p>Comments about buying GameStop outpaced those about selling, and while AMC's social-media action evinced an opposite trend, more than 20% of comments referred to both AMC and GameStop. Perhaps most tellingly, HypeEquity's data showed that roughly 8% of comments on both stocks included the word \"squeeze.\"</p>\n<p>\"When looking at the comments themselves,\" said HypeEquity founder Travis Rehl. \"There's a clear desire for a short squeeze either today or very soon.\"</p>\n<p>Reports of short sellers in GameStop, or those betting for declines in the company's shares, were circulating widely on Monday, and Tuesday's early price action combined to create one clear narrative; fighting hedge funds that users believe are renewing their campaign to short the meme stock. So-called meme stocks are ones that tend to be influenced by hype on social media rather than just company fundamentals.</p>\n<p>\"Remember, their portfolio full of derivatives is nothing against the power of HODLING the stock,\" proclaimed Mexicanred1 on r/Superstonk. \"There's only one way this can go... Just up.\"</p>\n<p>Just after 11 a.m. EST, shares in GameStop appeared to respond to that sentiment, popping more than 4% in less than 10 minutes and going briefly positive on the day. Shares of AMC surged almost 3% in the same period.</p>\n<p>At last check, GameStop shares are down 1.1% but had been up nearly 12% so far this week.

In addition to their extremely online popularity, both companies have spent the first half of 2021 leveraging their meme status to get out from major debt loads with significant new equity offerings.\nBut HypeEquity's data indicated that GameStop's day might see a turnaround.\nComments about buying GameStop outpaced those about selling, and while AMC's social-media action evinced an opposite trend, more than 20% of comments referred to both AMC and GameStop. Perhaps most tellingly, HypeEquity's data showed that roughly 8% of comments on both stocks included the word \"squeeze.\"\n\"When looking at the comments themselves,\" said HypeEquity founder Travis Rehl. \"There's a clear desire for a short squeeze either today or very soon.\"\nReports of short sellers in GameStop, or those betting for declines in the company's shares, were circulating widely on Monday, and Tuesday's early price action combined to create one clear narrative; fighting hedge funds that users believe are renewing their campaign to short the meme stock. So-called meme stocks are ones that tend to be influenced by hype on social media rather than just company fundamentals.\n\"Remember, their portfolio full of derivatives is nothing against the power of HODLING the stock,\" proclaimed Mexicanred1 on r/Superstonk. \"There's only one way this can go... Just up.\"\nJust after 11 a.m. EST, shares in GameStop appeared to respond to that sentiment, popping more than 4% in less than 10 minutes and going briefly positive on the day. Shares of AMC surged almost 3% in the same period.\nAt last check, GameStop shares are down 1.1% but had been up nearly 12% so far this week. In the year to date, GameStop's stock is up nearly 850%, FactSet data show.\nSince GameStop's rise in late January, retail investors have remained bullish on the stock and were re-energized when Keith Gill, the trader on Reddit known as DeepF--ingValue, disclosed that he had doubled down on it.\nMeanwhile, AMC shares are climbing 0.6% on the day and have gained more than 8% since the start of the week. For the year, AMC's stock has risen more than 560%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":147,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":194144892,"gmtCreate":1621349891916,"gmtModify":1634192216882,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Let them have a taste of their own medicinethey deserve it 👍🏻","listText":"Let them have a taste of their own medicinethey deserve it 👍🏻","text":"Let them have a taste of their own medicinethey deserve it 👍🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/194144892","repostId":"2136796277","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2136796277","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":1621337033,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2136796277?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-18 19:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Gamestop, AMC short sellers sit on nearly $1 billion loss - Ortex","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2136796277","media":"Reuters","summary":"LONDON, May 18  - Investors are estimated to have lost $930 million on their short positions in meme stocks GameStop and AMC Entertainment over the last five trading days, data from financial analytics firm Ortex showed on Tuesday.Shares in GameStop, which was at the heart of the so-called \"stonks\" retail trading mania earlier this year, have risen by a third in the last $one$ week, while shares in cinema operator AMC are up 39%.Ortex said short interest in AMC is currently estimated to be 18.3%","content":"<p>LONDON, May 18 (Reuters) - Investors are estimated to have lost $930 million on their short positions in meme stocks GameStop and AMC Entertainment over the last five trading days, data from financial analytics firm Ortex showed on Tuesday.</p>\n<p>Shares in GameStop, which was at the heart of the so-called \"stonks\" retail trading mania earlier this year, have risen by a third in the last <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> week, while shares in cinema operator AMC are up 39%.</p>\n<p>Ortex said short interest in AMC is currently estimated to be 18.3% of freefloat and in GME it is estimated at 21.8% of freefloat.</p>\n<p>Yesterday alone, short-sellers lost over $200 million each in both of those stocks, Ortex data shows.

The current valuation and business challenges present a \"lose/lose\" outcome to investors.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Now considered a \"meme stock\"; gaming retail company GameStop Corp.(NYSE:GME)has seen volatility in its share price over the past year. The stock has bounced between a vast range from low single digits, to more than $480 per share. While much of the excitement has faded away, the stock still trades at more than $140 per share. A business transformation is underway, led by Ryan Cohen, the former CEO and co-founder of animal products e-commerce leader Chewy(NYSE:CHWY). This has many retail investors holding shares in anticipation of a long term rebirth, with GameStop becoming an e-commerce titan of the gaming industry.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the data doesn't point to this outcome. While the company has stabilized itself and now operates on a debt free basis, the company's needed capital investments to flesh out an e-commerce strategy in addition to secular tailwinds lead me to believe that GameStop will be unable to sustain long term profitability. In the event of successful execution, the valuation will take many years to be justified. For these reasons, GameStop is a very poor long term investment. We will outline our bearish thesis below.</p>\n<p><b>GameStop Forced To Go To E-Commerce</b></p>\n<p>GameStop has long been known among consumers as a brick and mortar centric video game retailer. When I was growing up (I'm now in my early 30s), I used to camp out in front of GameStop at midnight, waiting with friends for the latest release of our favorite games. While you could get games at nearly any retailer, the ability to trade in old games for store credit, and large product selection found at a gaming focused store such as GameStop was compelling for me as a gamer.</p>\n<p>Today, the way in which gaming is delivered to the consumer is far different. In many cases, games can be purchased (and pre-ordered) digitally. Fast internet speeds mean that games can be downloaded and played within minutes or sometimes a few hours. The rise of Amazon has brought the shopping experience to one's fingertips.</p>\n<p>These secular changes have slowly deteriorated GameStop's store traffic and resulting revenues.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0690d871cc1287d7d877083b48b74d0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"377\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>This significant decline in GameStop's business has forced the company to evolve, and begin the journey of shifting towards an e-commerce model. This has been led by an activist investor in Chewy co-founder Ryan Cohen, who got involved with GameStop in September of 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/084ae308b6cc58704e8982e61b213408\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"162\">source: GameStop Corp.</p>\n<p>The company's plan is to strip costs out of the business by closing stores, cutting expenses, and devoting its resources to optimizing its product footprint while fleshing out the logistics needed for an e-commerce centric market strategy. These efforts remain in-motion. The company has closed roughly 1,000 stores through the end of 2020, andrecently leaseda 700K square-foot facility that will serve as a fulfillment center.</p>\n<p>To GameStop's credit, the business has seen signs of improvement. The company is currently debt free.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/575ba6c4954d66961e0a8550dcf561af\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>The company has also raised capital with a timely equity raise in early 2021. GameStop raised $551 million on 3.5 million shares, averaging a price per share of $157. Considering the company has repurchased more than a third of its stock since spring 2019 at an average of $5.21/share, this is a phenomenal move on GameStop's part. This newfound capital will be needed as the company's transformation efforts are far from over.</p>\n<p>Multiple Margin Pressures Threaten Profitability</p>\n<p>While successful e-commerce models can be powerful, the formation of the e-commerce model can be costly. Infrastructure needs to be put into place, and the digital marketplace brings competition from all over.</p>\n<p>GameStop's financials are in a much better place at present. However over the long term, its largest challenge in pivoting to e-commerce is making the model profitable over the long term. There are a number of concerns I have about GameStop's ability to do this.</p>\n<p><b>Smaller Scale</b></p>\n<p>E-commerce is a \"cut-throat\" business, where scale is your friend. GameStop is seeking an e-commerce model that will pit it against much larger competitors such as Amazon (AMZN), Walmart (WMT), and Target (TGT). These companies have significantly higher scale than GameStop, including larger revenues (and balance sheets).</p>\n<p>In a retail space where the product is commoditized (gaming hardware/software is the same regardless of where you buy from unless a developer partnership is in place), there is not room for much mark-up and the larger players can take more \"pain\" to take/protect market share.</p>\n<p><b>Product Mix</b></p>\n<p>Another concern I have with GameStop is the company's product mix moving forward. Game distribution continues to move increasingly digital, and is a trend that I don't see reversing. It's simply far too convenient for gamers because they can buy/pre-order a game, and it can be downloaded relatively quickly thanks to faster internet speeds available today.</p>\n<p>This has been reinforced by console makers. The Xbox Series S lacks a disc drive, and the PlayStation 5 also offers a variant that does not include a disc drive.</p>\n<p>GameStop knows that software sales are in secular decline, and has indicated an intention to focus on hardware and accessories including:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Computers</li>\n <li>Monitors</li>\n <li>Game Tables</li>\n <li>Mobile Gaming</li>\n <li>Gaming TVs</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The problem for GameStop, is that these declining software sales carried the highest margins for the company.</p>\n<p>From GameStop's 2020Q4 earnings call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>\"From a product margin standpoint, overall gross margins were 21.1%, down 610 basis points from our more software-led 27.2% gross margin in the fiscal fourth quarter last year. The decline was driven by an expected increase in mix of lower margin hardware sales, a continued increase in industry-wide freight costs, credit card processing fees driven by our higher penetration of e-commerce sales, and a broader promotional stance.\"</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>So GameStop is pivoting to lower margin, higher cost items - probably because it knows it has to. This isn't to say that GameStop can't pull it off, but the conflict is quite obvious.</p>\n<p><b>GameStop Needs To Repair Its Brand Image</b></p>\n<p>Perhaps the largest question mark I have about GameStop - even more than the economics of its future business model, is the company's branding. GameStop talks about being this gamer-centric, customer driven model that consumers love.</p>\n<p>However, this doesn't seem to be the current state of GameStop's brand. The company has been poked fun at on the internet for its \"low-ball\" offers on gamer trade-ins.</p>\n<p>GameStop also possesses a NPS (net promoter score) of -6according to Comparably. As a gamer myself, I had a \"bad taste\" in my mouth when sourcing my Xbox Series X. GameStop often tied its inventory of next-generation consoles to large expansive bundles that included high margin games and accessories that many consumers didn't want. If GameStop expects to become a modernized \"go-to\" shopping experience for gamers, they have work to do in the brand power department.</p>\n<p><b>The Long Path To Profitability Is Too Large A Risk</b></p>\n<p>GameStop can certainly address these concerns over time. The company's recent equity raise if anything, buys them time to try and execute this transition. This is also asking investors in GameStop to take on risk. While shares of GameStop have pulled back considerably, the stock still trades at $143 per share, multiples of what it did as recently as the beginning of the year.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fcc11261f3b8202eaa6b86d9f99c97b0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"375\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>The company is not a growth stock, and therefore should be valued on earnings. But GameStop is losing money, and will not turn a profit anytime soon.

Investing is about risk and reward, and I can't make the case to pay that valuation. Investors have to essentially give up the opportunity cost of investing elsewhere over this time frame, hope that GameStop can execute successfully, and then wait longer for the business to grow into its valuation over a 5+ year time horizon. Frankly, it seems silly.</p>\n<p><b>Wrapping Up</b></p>\n<p>When you put all of this together, GameStop offers a terrible risk/reward to investors. In a worst case scenario, GameStop fails to execute its e-commerce model and goes out of business. In a best case scenario, investors will wait years to justify the current valuation. When the outcome is lose/lose, I would rather not play at all.</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>GameStop: Why The 'Blockbuster' Of Gaming Will Eventually Fail</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\">\nGameStop: Why The 'Blockbuster' Of Gaming Will Eventually Fail\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-12 19:55 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop has been a highly debated stock after a surge of retail interest turned the company into a \"meme stock\" and drove shares into triple figures.\nThe company is pivoting to e-commerce ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1154735458","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop has been a highly debated stock after a surge of retail interest turned the company into a \"meme stock\" and drove shares into triple figures.\nThe company is pivoting to e-commerce and has admittedly cleaned up its balance sheet nicely.\nThe long-term problem is that the company faces margin pressures from a number of angles. The current valuation and business challenges present a \"lose/lose\" outcome to investors.\n\nNow considered a \"meme stock\"; gaming retail company GameStop Corp.(NYSE:GME)has seen volatility in its share price over the past year. The stock has bounced between a vast range from low single digits, to more than $480 per share. While much of the excitement has faded away, the stock still trades at more than $140 per share. A business transformation is underway, led by Ryan Cohen, the former CEO and co-founder of animal products e-commerce leader Chewy(NYSE:CHWY). This has many retail investors holding shares in anticipation of a long term rebirth, with GameStop becoming an e-commerce titan of the gaming industry.\nUnfortunately, the data doesn't point to this outcome. While the company has stabilized itself and now operates on a debt free basis, the company's needed capital investments to flesh out an e-commerce strategy in addition to secular tailwinds lead me to believe that GameStop will be unable to sustain long term profitability. In the event of successful execution, the valuation will take many years to be justified. For these reasons, GameStop is a very poor long term investment. We will outline our bearish thesis below.\nGameStop Forced To Go To E-Commerce\nGameStop has long been known among consumers as a brick and mortar centric video game retailer. When I was growing up (I'm now in my early 30s), I used to camp out in front of GameStop at midnight, waiting with friends for the latest release of our favorite games. While you could get games at nearly any retailer, the ability to trade in old games for store credit, and large product selection found at a gaming focused store such as GameStop was compelling for me as a gamer.\nToday, the way in which gaming is delivered to the consumer is far different. In many cases, games can be purchased (and pre-ordered) digitally. Fast internet speeds mean that games can be downloaded and played within minutes or sometimes a few hours. The rise of Amazon has brought the shopping experience to one's fingertips.\nThese secular changes have slowly deteriorated GameStop's store traffic and resulting revenues.\nsource: YCharts\nThis significant decline in GameStop's business has forced the company to evolve, and begin the journey of shifting towards an e-commerce model. This has been led by an activist investor in Chewy co-founder Ryan Cohen, who got involved with GameStop in September of 2020.\nsource: GameStop Corp.\nThe company's plan is to strip costs out of the business by closing stores, cutting expenses, and devoting its resources to optimizing its product footprint while fleshing out the logistics needed for an e-commerce centric market strategy. These efforts remain in-motion. The company has closed roughly 1,000 stores through the end of 2020, andrecently leaseda 700K square-foot facility that will serve as a fulfillment center.\nTo GameStop's credit, the business has seen signs of improvement. The company is currently debt free.\nsource: YCharts\nThe company has also raised capital with a timely equity raise in early 2021. GameStop raised $551 million on 3.5 million shares, averaging a price per share of $157. Considering the company has repurchased more than a third of its stock since spring 2019 at an average of $5.21/share, this is a phenomenal move on GameStop's part. This newfound capital will be needed as the company's transformation efforts are far from over.\nMultiple Margin Pressures Threaten Profitability\nWhile successful e-commerce models can be powerful, the formation of the e-commerce model can be costly. Infrastructure needs to be put into place, and the digital marketplace brings competition from all over.\nGameStop's financials are in a much better place at present. However over the long term, its largest challenge in pivoting to e-commerce is making the model profitable over the long term. There are a number of concerns I have about GameStop's ability to do this.\nSmaller Scale\nE-commerce is a \"cut-throat\" business, where scale is your friend. GameStop is seeking an e-commerce model that will pit it against much larger competitors such as Amazon (AMZN), Walmart (WMT), and Target (TGT). These companies have significantly higher scale than GameStop, including larger revenues (and balance sheets).\nIn a retail space where the product is commoditized (gaming hardware/software is the same regardless of where you buy from unless a developer partnership is in place), there is not room for much mark-up and the larger players can take more \"pain\" to take/protect market share.\nProduct Mix\nAnother concern I have with GameStop is the company's product mix moving forward. Game distribution continues to move increasingly digital, and is a trend that I don't see reversing. It's simply far too convenient for gamers because they can buy/pre-order a game, and it can be downloaded relatively quickly thanks to faster internet speeds available today.\nThis has been reinforced by console makers. The Xbox Series S lacks a disc drive, and the PlayStation 5 also offers a variant that does not include a disc drive.\nGameStop knows that software sales are in secular decline, and has indicated an intention to focus on hardware and accessories including:\n\nComputers\nMonitors\nGame Tables\nMobile Gaming\nGaming TVs\n\nThe problem for GameStop, is that these declining software sales carried the highest margins for the company.\nFrom GameStop's 2020Q4 earnings call:\n\n\"From a product margin standpoint, overall gross margins were 21.1%, down 610 basis points from our more software-led 27.2% gross margin in the fiscal fourth quarter last year. The decline was driven by an expected increase in mix of lower margin hardware sales, a continued increase in industry-wide freight costs, credit card processing fees driven by our higher penetration of e-commerce sales, and a broader promotional stance.\"\n\nSo GameStop is pivoting to lower margin, higher cost items - probably because it knows it has to.

But, unfortunately, all you’ll find is a July 6 press release about the companysigning a leasefor a 530,000 square foot distribution warehouse in Reno, Nevada.</p>\n<p>Before that, you’ve got the June announcement of its Q1 2021 results and the announcement ofCEO Matt Furlong to its board.</p>\n<p>So naturally, Furlong’s an<b>Amazon</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>) disciple. So, of course, you have to have these types to attract investors.</p>\n<p>Loop Capital Markets analyst Anthony Chukumba recently made an excellent point about GameStop’s obsession with hiring Amazon executives.</p>\n<p>“The doctor’s prescription doesn’t match the disease,”Chukumba told<i>Yahoo Finance’s</i>Brian Sozzi. “Amazon is a great e-commerce retailer, there is no question about that. But GameStop’s primary problem is that more and more gamers are downloading video games.”</p>\n<p>He went on to say that a better website isn’t a solution.</p>\n<p>“It’s like going to the doctor and saying doctor, I have got stage four lung cancer and he gives you a prescription for erectile dysfunction,” he said. “It just doesn’t make a whole [lot] of sense.”</p>\n<p>Like the analyst, I am absolutely<i>not</i>sold on Ryan Cohen’s vision of the future.</p>\n<p>In fact, any of these three equal-sized alternatives are better options over the long haul than GME.</p>\n<p><b>GME Stock Alternatives</b></p>\n<p>My first alternative to GameStop is<b>RH</b>(NYSE:<b><u>RH</u></b>), or Restoration Hardware as it’s commonly known. It currently has a market cap of $13.9 billion.</p>\n<p>The specialty retailer of luxury furniture and home furnishings has gotten off to a strong start in 2021. On May 7, it opened RH Dallas, a70,000 square footretail experience that includes a rooftop bar and restaurant, along with the finest in furniture and design.</p>\n<p>As for Q1 2021, it finished the quarter with$860.8 millionin sales and a pre-tax profit of $174.5 million for a 20.3% operating margin.</p>\n<p>For all of 2021, RH expects sales to increase between 25% and 30%, higher than the company’s original guidance of 17.5% growth at the midpoint.</p>\n<p>As for operating profits, it expects a margin of at least 23.5% in 2021.</p>\n<p>There’s a reason Warren Buffett owns$1.2 billionof its stock.</p>\n<p><b>Consider Smucker</b></p>\n<p>If you’ve held<b>JM Smucker</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SJM</u></b>) for the past decade, you have not gotten rich. While the entire U.S. market generated an annualized total return of 14.7%, SJM could only muster 7.4%, or roughly half.</p>\n<p>The company has some terrific brands, including Folgers, Jif, Smuckers, Robin Hood, Meow Mix, and Milk-Bone. However, it’s had a difficult time convincing investors it’s got long-term growth potential.</p>\n<p>In recent times, it’s been reducing its overhead costs while making Smucker’s a more consumer-centric business. That includes building a robust e-commerce business. In 2021, online sales accounted for12% of its revenue.</p>\n<p>In its Q4 2021 conference call in early June, CEO Mark Smucker said that 55% of its brands are taking market share compared to just 26% 18 months ago. In addition, it’s now taken market share in six straight quarters.</p>\n<p>It continues to look for acquisitions in its three operating segments: Pet food, coffee, and snacks.</p>\n<p>In 2021, it generated $1.26 billion in free cash flow, $150 million above its latest projection. More importantly, it has an attractiveFCF margin of 15.8%. By comparison,GameStop’s is 1.7%.</p>\n<p><b>Another Alternative</b></p>\n<p>I find it hard to believe that a capital allocator as historically strong as<b>Loews</b>(NYSE:<b><u>L</u></b>) has a market cap that’s less than GameStop at $14.3 billion.</p>\n<p>At the moment, Loews only has a controlling stake in one public company. That would be<b>CNA Financial</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CNA</u></b>).It owns 89.5%of the property and casualty insurer. The company’s three other operating businesses are Boardwalk Pipelines (100% ownership), Loews Hotels (100%), and Altium Packaging (53%).</p>\n<p>In March, Loews sold 47% of the packaging company to GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, for a pre-tax gain of$490 million.

But, unfortunately, all you’ll find is a July 6 press release about the companysigning a leasefor a 530,000 square foot distribution warehouse in Reno, Nevada.\nBefore that, you’ve got the June announcement of its Q1 2021 results and the announcement ofCEO Matt Furlong to its board.\nSo naturally, Furlong’s anAmazon(NASDAQ:AMZN) disciple. So, of course, you have to have these types to attract investors.\nLoop Capital Markets analyst Anthony Chukumba recently made an excellent point about GameStop’s obsession with hiring Amazon executives.\n“The doctor’s prescription doesn’t match the disease,”Chukumba toldYahoo Finance’sBrian Sozzi. “Amazon is a great e-commerce retailer, there is no question about that. But GameStop’s primary problem is that more and more gamers are downloading video games.”\nHe went on to say that a better website isn’t a solution.\n“It’s like going to the doctor and saying doctor, I have got stage four lung cancer and he gives you a prescription for erectile dysfunction,” he said. “It just doesn’t make a whole [lot] of sense.”\nLike the analyst, I am absolutelynotsold on Ryan Cohen’s vision of the future.\nIn fact, any of these three equal-sized alternatives are better options over the long haul than GME.\nGME Stock Alternatives\nMy first alternative to GameStop isRH(NYSE:RH), or Restoration Hardware as it’s commonly known. It currently has a market cap of $13.9 billion.\nThe specialty retailer of luxury furniture and home furnishings has gotten off to a strong start in 2021. On May 7, it opened RH Dallas, a70,000 square footretail experience that includes a rooftop bar and restaurant, along with the finest in furniture and design.\nAs for Q1 2021, it finished the quarter with$860.8 millionin sales and a pre-tax profit of $174.5 million for a 20.3% operating margin.\nFor all of 2021, RH expects sales to increase between 25% and 30%, higher than the company’s original guidance of 17.5% growth at the midpoint.\nAs for operating profits, it expects a margin of at least 23.5% in 2021.\nThere’s a reason Warren Buffett owns$1.2 billionof its stock.\nConsider Smucker\nIf you’ve heldJM Smucker(NYSE:SJM) for the past decade, you have not gotten rich. While the entire U.S. market generated an annualized total return of 14.7%, SJM could only muster 7.4%, or roughly half.\nThe company has some terrific brands, including Folgers, Jif, Smuckers, Robin Hood, Meow Mix, and Milk-Bone. However, it’s had a difficult time convincing investors it’s got long-term growth potential.\nIn recent times, it’s been reducing its overhead costs while making Smucker’s a more consumer-centric business. That includes building a robust e-commerce business. In 2021, online sales accounted for12% of its revenue.\nIn its Q4 2021 conference call in early June, CEO Mark Smucker said that 55% of its brands are taking market share compared to just 26% 18 months ago. In addition, it’s now taken market share in six straight quarters.\nIt continues to look for acquisitions in its three operating segments: Pet food, coffee, and snacks.\nIn 2021, it generated $1.26 billion in free cash flow, $150 million above its latest projection. More importantly, it has an attractiveFCF margin of 15.8%. By comparison,GameStop’s is 1.7%.\nAnother Alternative\nI find it hard to believe that a capital allocator as historically strong asLoews(NYSE:L) has a market cap that’s less than GameStop at $14.3 billion.\nAt the moment, Loews only has a controlling stake in one public company. That would beCNA Financial(NYSE:CNA).It owns 89.5%of the property and casualty insurer. The company’s three other operating businesses are Boardwalk Pipelines (100% ownership), Loews Hotels (100%), and Altium Packaging (53%).\nIn March, Loews sold 47% of the packaging company to GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, for a pre-tax gain of$490 million. Bringing in the financial partner will help it scale Altium that much faster. It’s a no-brainer.\nIn addition to those four businesses, it has $1.3 billion in net cash. Because it controls a significant portion of CNA’s stock, CNA trades at a discount to its property and casualty peers.\nA sum-of-the-parts valuation suggests L stock is worth more than $14.3 billion. It might not have Ryan Cohen leading the charge, but it remains an attractive investment for risk-averse investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":358,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":123709955,"gmtCreate":1624437117977,"gmtModify":1634006150317,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Corrupted piece of shit, why investigate ppl who like the stock and buy on their own.

Despite this, it managed to grow its sales by 25% year-over-year to $1.277 billion.</p>\n<p>At the same time, GameStop's operating loss narrowed to $21.6 million from $98.8 million a year ago.

It currently has more than $700 million in cash and investments on its balance sheet.</p>\n<h2>The bad news</h2>\n<p>After the earnings release, GameStop shares fell by as much as 27% in a single trading session. In addition, the company announced it would issue up to five million additional shares over a period of time, representing a dilution of up to 7% to its 70 million shares outstanding.</p>\n<p>That aside, there's the major risk of lawsuits against those involved in the coordinated \"pump and dump\" activities of the WSB community. Reddit user profiles of these traders are pretty much public. In fact, lawsuits have already been filed against prominent members of the community for allegedly promoting GameStop while the stock was at \"artificially high levels\".</p>\n<p>On June 9, the SEC announced it was probing GameStop concerning recent trading activities. While the investigation is still in its infancy, WSB members are growing increasingly concerned about legal and privacy issues from the fallout. The agency could potentially subpoena popular platforms like Reddit to access personal information/identities of members regarding their roles in the run-up. I believe this rapidly spreading fear, especially among those who are \"holding-on-for-dear-life\" (HODLers), is responsible for the sell-off.</p>\n<h2>What's next?</h2>\n<p>The same community that propped up GameStop's stock in a greed-fueled frenzy is equally capable of sending the shares crashing if fear takes center stage. While the company is generating solid growth, the company has a negative free cash flow of about $33.5 million per quarter, including a net cash outflow of nearly $19 million in operating activites. It's a noticeable improvement from $55.9 million negative FCF last year -- but still isn't good news yet. GameStop sold investors on the dream of a turnaround into an e-commerce giant and now has to live up to its reputation.</p>\n<p>There is a lot of uncertainty as to how profitable the new GameStop could be. Maybe its net margins will improve to 5% to 10%; perhaps it will hover around 0%, perhaps it will keep running at a loss for quite some time. After all, its gross margins actually fell 1.8 percentage points to 25.9% in Q1.

In the second quarter, warned the banker, trading volumes at retail brokerages showed as much as a 30% sequential decline in meme stock buying. And of course, it's hard to create a short squeeze without buyers.</p>\n<p>Result: Meme stocks took a tumble, with&nbsp;<b>Eastman Kodak</b>(NYSE:KODK)closing Thursday down 8.5% from Friday's close,<b>BlackBerry Limited</b>(NYSE:BB)losing 10.4%, and&nbsp;<b>GameStop</b>(NYSE:GME)crashing to a 12.8% loss.</p>\n<p>So what</p>\n<p>Only in one instance was there actual news to explain the declines.

In the second quarter, warned the banker, trading volumes at retail brokerages showed as much as a 30% sequential decline in meme stock buying. And of course, it's hard to create a short squeeze without buyers.\nResult: Meme stocks took a tumble, with Eastman Kodak(NYSE:KODK)closing Thursday down 8.5% from Friday's close,BlackBerry Limited(NYSE:BB)losing 10.4%, and GameStop(NYSE:GME)crashing to a 12.8% loss.\nSo what\nOnly in one instance was there actual news to explain the declines. In fact, more than half of GameStop's losses for the week came on just one trading day -- Wednesday -- when Bloomberg reported that Netflix is eying an entryinto the video game space, in which it will de facto compete with GameStop.\nAs for the other companies, though -- and as for meme stocks in general--it's primarily a shift in sentiment against the companies that's weighing on their stock prices. Following up on Goldman's negative take, Franklin Resources CEO Jenny Johnson chimed in on Wednesday with a warning that traders \"could lose everything\" if they persist in buying meme stocks.\nNow what\nAttractive as it might be to think you're \"sticking it to the man\" on Wall Street by buying stocks that \"hedge funds\" are shorting, the simple truth is that neither BlackBerry nor Kodak has earned any profit whatsoever since 2019 -- and GameStop hasn't earned a profit since 2018.\n\"I never like investing where there isn't fundamentals behind it,\" Johnson told Yahoo!

The run was partly fueled by a Reddit group, which promoted the stock and also created a short squeeze that led the price higher. That makes for great headlines, but there are strong reasons to avoid getting pulled in.</p>\n<h2>Trying to transition</h2>\n<p>GameStop, which sells video game consoles and software, was already experiencing weakening sales heading into 2020. Same-store sales (comps) fell by 19.4% in 2019, following that up with a 9.5% drop last year.</p>\n<p>While the company was experiencing strong sales growth for a long time, the last few years have been rough. It posted negative comps in four out of the last five years. That's due in no small part to a world that is changing, and people can increasingly download games from a variety of reputable companies such as Epic Games, Steam, <b> Microsoft</b>, and <b> Sony</b>.</p>\n<p>A major investor saw an opportunity to turn around GameStop's fortunes. RC Ventures, headed by Ryan Cohen, founder of the online company <b>Chewy</b>, built a 13% ownership in the company. He is now chairman of GameStop and has made key management changes, including hiring a new CEO and CFO who previously worked for <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p>Clearly, Cohen has committed his financial resources and time to making GameStop successful. While he built up impressive credentials at Chewy, which PetSmart bought for $3.4 billion (and still owns a majority stake in despite taking the company public), can he work his magic this time around?</p>\n<h2>Don't get fooled</h2>\n<p>It's a tough road to get GameStop moving in the right direction. Management didn't provide a comparable sales figure, but the fiscal first quarter's top line did increase by better than 25% to $1.3 billion for the period ended on May 1. But you shouldn't get overly excited by this impressive headline figure.</p>\n<p>It is difficult to make year-over-year comparisons since the company cut its store base by 12%. While this would make the sales growth seem more impressive, remember, GameStop was forced to close stores last year due to the pandemic. So this depressed the year-ago figure. Then, the current period benefited from Sony and Microsoft releasing new game consoles last year. This will prove to be a temporary lift since it's a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-time purchase.</p>\n<p>The company will need to follow this up with improved game sales. However, software sales were down during the period. While the company blamed this on lower used game inventory, it has gotten a boost in the past when companies released new systems. This suggests that GameStop's hope for a multi-year bounce from the new systems is already facing hurdles.</p>\n<h2>Details lacking</h2>\n<p>While the new management team has online e-commerce experience, details on a plan forward remain lacking. Undoubtedly, that is coming as the executives meet and figure out where they want to go. However, with stiff online competition, it is tough to invest in the company without knowing how it will turn itself around and get sales back to sustained profitability.</p>\n<p>That's why you should leave GameStop's shares on the shelf.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>1 Stock to Avoid No Matter What</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\">\n1 Stock to Avoid No Matter What\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-17 17:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/16/1-stock-to-avoid-no-matter-what-gamestop/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>GameStop (NYSE:GME) has certainly had a wild ride this year.

Shares have surged more than 1,000% in 2021, though the stock has dropped about 6% this month.\n“We are temporarily suspending our rating and price target until the company more clearly articulates new management’s business strategy, which should also allow investors to better assess the company’s intrinsic value and prospects for future free cash flow generation,” Baird’s Colin Sebastian said in a note released Monday.\nBaird recognizes that GameStop is looking to stage a turnaround by shifting focus to e-commerce. Earlier in June, the company named former Amazon executive Matt Furlong as its new CEO.\nHowever, the firm said “share price volatility is tied more closely to non-fundamental trading, social media influences and other factors that make it difficult, at least in the near term, to make a reasonable stock rating recommendation to institutional investors.”\nBefore suspending coverage, Baird held a neutral rating on GameStop and set its 12-month price target at $25.\n“Investors should no longer rely on our prior recommendation or price target when making future investment decisions,” Sebastian said.\nShares of GameStop closed 1.3% lower at $209.51 on Friday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":304,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111334780,"gmtCreate":1622651892540,"gmtModify":1634099518681,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","text":"$GameStop(GME)$Hold the line dear Apes 🦍 to the moon 🌙 🚀","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/111334780","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":377,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":899797147,"gmtCreate":1628214166789,"gmtModify":1631886975259,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HOOD\">$Robinhood Markets, Inc.(HOOD)$</a>Another pump and dump??

He pointed out that the economy is bolstered by record-low rates, record-high fiscal stimulus and a synchronized recovery throughout the world spurred by a post-pandemic return to normal.\nGorman believes that this set of conditions will drive inflation, which will prove to be less transitory than many assume. As a result, the Fed will be forced to raise rates sooner than the market currently expects.\nLooking at the market as a whole, Gorman said meme stocks, the SPAC market and the volatility in cryptocurrencies are examples of \"moments of froth\" and \"spurts of exuberance\" in a market that otherwise has many rational reasons for its advance. He said the overall stock market is supported by \"a very strong\" economic recovery.\nCommenting on the$911 million loss prompted by Archegos, Gorman said he was \"very, very disappointed\" in the event, but that it didn't undermine the value of the overall business. However, he did say that the company had reviewed its margin requirements in the aftermath.\nMorgan Stanley should have never been in a position to sustain such a loss, Gorman admitted, but said the firm had taken some lessons from the event.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":211,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":111045776,"gmtCreate":1622646318395,"gmtModify":1634099595724,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","listText":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","text":"Why we should avoid motley fool, spreading fake news 👎🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/111045776","repostId":"2140223411","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2140223411","pubTimestamp":1622639401,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2140223411?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-02 21:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why You Should Avoid GameStop Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2140223411","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This company's future is not as bright as its stock price indicates.","content":"<p>In the last 12 months, <b>GameStop&nbsp;</b>(NYSE:GME) stock has risen over 5,000% to reach $17 billion in market capitalization.&nbsp;The rise seems to be predominately driven by a short squeeze rather than by fundamentals involving shrinking revenues and compressing margins.</p>\n<p>If you look at social media, I'm sure you can find passionate people telling you why to invest in the company.

At some point, the 1 percent of SPACs that actually work will end up in the S&amp;P 500, driving future returns.

But hidden amid the meme stocks, SPACs, and crypto coins could be some valuable businesses.\n“Somewhere in the hundreds of SPACs and scores of meme stocks are some decent companies and potentially even a few huge opportunities,” DataTrek’s Nicholas Colas wrote in a note this week. “For example: Hertz, which was supposed to be a retail investor graveyard, actually exited bankruptcy with its equity value intact. The same exact thing happened with U-Haul about 20 years ago, by the way.”\nWhile many of the assets used for speculation may have similar price spikes as viral interest or short interest affect people’s perceptions, most of these things are all pretty different, with different stories and long term possibilities.\nTake Hertz. Last year, the company was bankrupt and shares were on a roller coaster – investors could try to double or triple their money in a day. But if an investor held on and didn’t sell shares out of boredom or when the stock stopped being compelling (Yahoo Finance traffic data showed interest and trading volume fell off in July 2020 they would be in a pretty good situation, returns-wise.\n\nHertz had fallen from a June 2020 peak of over $6 to well under a dollar during the months after interest waned and was delisted from the NYSE in 2020. But in May, it ended up being worth over $6 a share when the company emerged from bankruptcy via auction, rewarding shareholders who stayed.\nThe only thesis there would have been “this name-brand rental car company would get its mojo back when people start renting cars again,” not a huge jump.\n'Meme’ stocks and SPACs could have moonshot potential, even if tiny\nOn the SPAC boom, Colas mused that most will probably fail or at least “dramatically underperform,” but that “somewhere in this barrage of moonshots there will almost certainly be a few huge winners that leverage disruptive technology.”\nAccording to a Reuters investigation, 100 SPACs, most of which began trading last year, gained just 2% from their first-traded prices, dramatically underperforming the S&P 500 index.\nBut Colas has a reminder that there is an easy way to get exposure to any breakaway successes in the SPAC world — by simply getting involved in a broad equity portfolio like the S&P 500.\n“If you own a diversified US equity portfolio like the S&P 500, then SPACs and meme stocks are basically free call options,” Colas wrote. “Somewhere in that basket of oddball ideas could be the next Amazon or Apple, and you absolutely want to see those companies funded. At some point, the 1 percent of SPACs that actually work will end up in the S&P 500, driving future returns. And the 99 percent that fail will have cost you nothing.”\n\nWhile you might not get the jaw-dropping ground-floor gains, a transformative company would have plenty of gains still to give an index after it’s added. Just look at Apple, Amazon, or even Tesla. If the company is a good one, it will do well, and even if you don’t get those ground-floor gains, not having the losers is a huge advantage.\nThis is key because you never know what’s going to happen. For a SPAC with a nebulous business, you can have the moon in your sights. The vaguer things are, the higher you can shoot. But for GameStop, AMC, and Hertz, we’re talking about a game store, a movie theater chain, and a car-rental company — hardly the next Apple. At least, you’d think. But not necessarily.\n“There is always some level of optionality in any business, no matter how prosaic,” Colas told Yahoo Finance. “And that optionality increases in value when there is a ton of cash on the balance sheet because managements have more time to explore the options embedded in the price.”\nIn other words, when these meme stocks have a ton of cash, more than they’ve ever dreamed of, a lot more might be possible, even if it’s a long shot.\n“Now, the options might not be worth much,” Colas added, “but they aren't worth zero until the cash is gone.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":363,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":130445437,"gmtCreate":1621563064629,"gmtModify":1634188062161,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The only way is to the moon!!!","listText":"The only way is to the moon!!!","text":"The only way is to the moon!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/130445437","repostId":"1188975226","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":422,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":197116256,"gmtCreate":1621433194175,"gmtModify":1634189190886,"author":{"id":"3575535478532281","authorId":"3575535478532281","name":"MoneyLaiLai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/639a3b03c57fa8d7cf603a5133568706","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3575535478532281","idStr":"3575535478532281"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Can’t wait to see those F.HF burn 🔥&nbsp;GME TO THE MOON 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","listText":"Can’t wait to see those F.HF burn 🔥&nbsp;GME TO THE MOON 🌙 🚀&nbsp;","text":"Can’t wait to see those F.HF burn 🔥 GME TO THE MOON 🌙 🚀","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/197116256","repostId":"2136999820","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":147,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
