Indeed, from 2016 to 2020, revenue almost tripled, growing from $8.8 billion to $25 billion. In addition to providing quality service that attracts viewers, Netflix is the beneficiary or arguably the cause of a shift away from linear TV to streaming content. </p> <p>After all, signing up to Netflix is more convenient than a traditional cable subscription. The cable option comes with long-term contracts, a complex installation that requires a professional, and a higher price. In contrast, you can sign up for Netflix and start watching content in minutes, and for less than $1 per day. It's no surprise then that consumers are flocking to the service by the millions.&nbsp;</p> \n <div></div> <p>Still, there is a long runway for this growth to continue as Netflix currently consumes less overall attention from viewers than linear TV. </p> <h2>Netflix is growing efficiently&nbsp;</h2> <p>Moreover, Netflix is managing its growth efficiently. The company is not spending on content with reckless abandon. Management looks at how much revenue will come in for a given quarter or year and plans content spending based on that revenue total, making sure to leave room for steady operating profit expansion. Since January 2016, management has committed to a goal of increasing operating profit margin by 300 basis points per year, and so far, it is hitting the target (see chart).&nbsp;</p> \n <div> \n  <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/235bd6191e48fb938ef3f3835309e52b\"> \n  <p>Data by YCharts.</p> \n </div> <h2>Is Netflix stock expensive?&nbsp;</h2> <p>A common question arises whenever a stock rises to record highs: Is the stock too expensive to buy? The critical thing to note with Netflix is that its profits are rising along with its stock price. Over the last five years, earnings per share have increased substantially: starting with $0.43 in 2016, $1.25 in 2017, $2.68 in 2018, $4.13 in 2019, and $6.08 in 2020. </p> <p>That means even though Netflix stock is at record highs, it's trading for a price-to-earnings ratio (63) near the cheapest level in the last decade. To answer my question, Netflix is not expensive, and given its solid prospects, it can continue going even higher. </p> \n <div></div> \n <div></div> </span>","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>Netflix Stock Is Making Record Highs; Could It Keep Going Higher?</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\">\nNetflix Stock Is Making Record Highs; Could It Keep Going Higher?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-04 11:44 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/02/netflix-stock-makes-record-is-it-too-late-to-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) stock made another record high today, closing at $610 on Sept. 30. The company continues to sustain the momentum gained at the pandemic's onset when millions of people turned to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/02/netflix-stock-makes-record-is-it-too-late-to-buy/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NFLX":"奈飞"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/02/netflix-stock-makes-record-is-it-too-late-to-buy/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2172964814","content_text":"Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) stock made another record high today, closing at $610 on Sept. 30. The company continues to sustain the momentum gained at the pandemic's onset when millions of people turned to Netflix to make the time cooped up at home more enjoyable.  Investors were concerned that Netflix could shed some subscribers as economies reopened because people now have more options for spending their time and money on entertainment.

In addition to providing quality service that attracts viewers, Netflix is the beneficiary or arguably the cause of a shift away from linear TV to streaming content.  After all, signing up to Netflix is more convenient than a traditional cable subscription. The cable option comes with long-term contracts, a complex installation that requires a professional, and a higher price. In contrast, you can sign up for Netflix and start watching content in minutes, and for less than $1 per day. It's no surprise then that consumers are flocking to the service by the millions. \n Still, there is a long runway for this growth to continue as Netflix currently consumes less overall attention from viewers than linear TV.  Netflix is growing efficiently  Moreover, Netflix is managing its growth efficiently. The company is not spending on content with reckless abandon. Management looks at how much revenue will come in for a given quarter or year and plans content spending based on that revenue total, making sure to leave room for steady operating profit expansion. Since January 2016, management has committed to a goal of increasing operating profit margin by 300 basis points per year, and so far, it is hitting the target (see chart). \n\n\nData by YCharts.\n Is Netflix stock expensive?  A common question arises whenever a stock rises to record highs: Is the stock too expensive to buy? The critical thing to note with Netflix is that its profits are rising along with its stock price. Over the last five years, earnings per share have increased substantially: starting with $0.43 in 2016, $1.25 in 2017, $2.68 in 2018, $4.13 in 2019, and $6.08 in 2020.  That means even though Netflix stock is at record highs, it's trading for a price-to-earnings ratio (63) near the cheapest level in the last decade. To answer my question, Netflix is not expensive, and given its solid prospects, it can continue going even higher.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":571,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":862764179,"gmtCreate":1632916266273,"gmtModify":1632916266654,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/862764179","repostId":"1198528044","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1198528044","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632882697,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1198528044?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-29 10:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Technically Speaking: Is The Market \"Melting-Up?\"","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1198528044","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nGiven the Fed’s ongoing balance sheet operations, investors fully believe they have protect","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Given the Fed’s ongoing balance sheet operations, investors fully believe they have protection from a decline.</li>\n <li>As is always the case, the investing public believes future earnings will justify higher prices during a melt-up.

This $20 billion expansion will bring our total investment in Arizona to more than $50 billion since opening the site over 40 years ago.\n\"As the only U.S.-based leading-edge chipmaker, we are committed to building on this long-term investment and helping the United States regain semiconductor leadership,” Gelsinger said.\nShares of Intel on Friday traded 0.18% higher to $54.32 after hours.\nGelsinger on Thursday participated in a virtual meeting with tech company executives and Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo to address the global semiconductor chip shortage, which has interfered with production in the high-tech, electronics and automotive industries.\nThe two new factories, to be named Fab 52 and Fab 62, will house a total of six semiconductor fabs. The project will create over 3,000 high-tech, high-wage Intel jobs, 3,000 construction jobs and support an estimated 15,000 additional indirect jobs in the local community.\nIntel rival Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.plans to buildits second U.S. chip factory also in Arizona and targets production to begin in 2024.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":642,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":868941715,"gmtCreate":1632582417937,"gmtModify":1632655232644,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/868941715","repostId":"1149730497","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149730497","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632538837,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1149730497?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-25 11:00","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"7 Best Stocks To Buy for Investors Building a ‘Brands’ Portfolio","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1149730497","media":"investorplace","summary":"'Brands' are big and these seven stocks each bring investors a stake in recognized quality products ","content":"<p>'Brands' are big and these seven stocks each bring investors a stake in recognized quality products and services</p>\n<p>I saw a recent article from<i>Quartz at Work</i>about Reebok, other brand reboots, and what<b>Authentic Brands</b>plans to doto revitalize the once-dominant sneaker company. While the rise and fall of Reebok is a fascinating story, the article got me thinking about stocks to buy for the “Brands” portfolio.</p>\n<p>After all, Authentic Brands itself hasfiled to go public. My fellow<i>InvestorPlace</i>contributor Dana Blankenhorn calls it the most fascinating IPO of the year.</p>\n<p>“Authentic’s S-1has more pictures than<b>Pinterest</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PINS</u></b>), but tells little about the business. The numbers are for 2020, before a host of recent deals. It only identifies direct licensing revenue, $488 million of it in that year. But $211 million of that money, 43%, wound up as net income. This is said to justify a $10 billion enterprise valuation,” Dana wrote on Sep. 20.</p>\n<p>I agree with my colleague. It’s definitely up there. Heck, by the time I’ve written this, the company’s stock might be eligible for my newest portfolio.</p>\n<p>But, for now,<i>Finviz.com</i>tells me there are34 public companieswith the word “Brands” as part of their corporate name. So, I’ll recommend the seven best stocks to buy from the bunch.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Restaurant Brands International</b>(NYSE:<b><u>QSR)</u></b></li>\n <li><b>Constellation Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>STZ)</u></b></li>\n <li><b>Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FBHS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Newell Brands</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NWL</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Acuity Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AYI</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Cornerstone Building Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CNR</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>BellRing Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BRBR</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Restaurant Brands International (QSR)</p>\n<p>I begrudgingly put Restaurant Brands International, the owner of Tim Hortons, Burger King and Popeye’s, on my list of stocks to buy.</p>\n<p>Burger King acquired Tim Hortons in 2014 to form RBI. Ever since, I’ve had a hard time accepting the merger, given Burger King’s CEO made each Tim Horton’s head office employee justify their jobs in15-minute interviews.</p>\n<p>To date, I’d say I was right to be concerned about the poor treatment of employees. Over the past five years through Sept. 22, QSR stock has a total return of 9.0%, less than the Canadian market on the whole and nearly half the return of the entire U.S. market.</p>\n<p>In August, Tim Hortons China, a joint-venture between RBI and Hong Kong private equity firm<b>Cartesian Capital</b>, agreed to merge with<b>Silver Crest Acquisition Corp.</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>SLCR</u></b>) in a transaction that valued the Chinese segment of Tim Hortons at$1.7 billion.</p>\n<p>As long as<b>3G Capital</b>continues to own almost 30% of RBI stock, I’ll remain cautious in my praise.</p>\n<p>However, with$1.35 billionin trailing 12-month (TTM) free cash flow (FCF) and a 7.0% FCF yield, now could be an opportune time to pick up some shares.</p>\n<p>Constellation Brands (STZ)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51af367100d1d75a5ca277a1a9675c31\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: ShinoStock / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>A telltale sign Constellation Brands has become a big deal in corporate America is therecent announcementthat it would move 400 of its employees from its offices in Canandaigua, New York, to downtown Rochester.</p>\n<p>“The company investment is estimated at $50 million, while Landers [Peter Landers, majority investor in group that owns the downtown property] says the owners/developers’ will spend close to $35 million on historic restoration, stripping paint from the barrel ceilings and brick walls, and building a 120-space parking structure,” The<i>Democrat &amp; Chronicle</i>reported.</p>\n<p>While Constellation is known for Corona and Modelo beer, Svedka vodka, and Woodbridge wine, amongst others, it isthe company’s investmentin<b>Canopy Growth</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CGC</u></b>) that gets most of the attention.</p>\n<p>That’s because it’s taking forever to see the benefits of its multi-billion-dollar investment in the Canadian cannabis company. Since it acquired9.9% in October 2017, STZ stock has gone sideways over nearly 48 months.</p>\n<p>As a glass-half-full kind of person, I see the potential upside of its Canopy investment as a big reason to buy at current prices.</p>\n<p>Constellation has a TTM FCF of$2.0 billion, good for an FCF yield of 4.9%. When you consider the value yet to be extracted by its investment, STZ’s valuation is more than reasonable.</p>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security (FBHS)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c43d12689a9a34fc77425af4b7ac66d2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"165\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security wasspun offfrom<b>Fortune Brands Inc</b>, part of the then-holding company’s plan to deliver additional value for its shareholders almost a decade ago.</p>\n<p>At the same time, it sold its Acushnet business for $1.225 billion and renamed Fortune Brands as<b>Beam Inc.</b>, the holding company’s spirits business. Beam was subsequently sold to<b>Suntory Holdings</b>in 2014 for $16 billion, including the assumption of debt.</p>\n<p>Fortune shareholders got one share of FBHS for each share in the parent. FBHS stock has generated a total return of 22.4% over the past decade, 548 basis points higher than the entire U.S. market.</p>\n<p>The company hasthree operating segments: Plumbing, Outdoors &amp; Security, and Cabinets. Its brands include Moen faucets, Larson doors, Master Lock locks, MasterBrand cabinets, and many more.</p>\n<p>Together, they have TTM sales of $7.02 billion, $1.03 billion in operating income, $650 million in FCF, and an FCF yield of 5.0%.</p>\n<p>It’s a great business to own for the long haul.</p>\n<p>Newell Brands (NWL)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b002bc9b30d4f4cc62b40222b912a1b0\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Newell CEO Ravi Saligram was recently named one ofAtlanta’s best CEOsby the<i>Atlanta Business Chronicle.</i>Saligram joined Newell as CEO inOctober 2019. Before that, he was CEO of<b>Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers</b>(NYSE:<b><u>RBA</u></b>) from July 2014 to July 2019 and OfficeMax from November 2010 to November 2013. In addition, he oversaw the merger between OfficeMax and Office Depot.</p>\n<p>He’s been an executive for many years working in several different industries. Since joining Newell, NWL stock has gained 32% over nearly 24 months. That compares to 50% for the<b>S&amp;P 500 index</b>over the same period.</p>\n<p>Over the years, Newell Brands became quite bloated, with too many businesses generating too few profits. Newell might have underperformed so far in Saligram’s tenure, but he’s doing his best to set the company up for sustainable growth.</p>\n<p>“Along our journey, we will add capabilities to build competitive advantage. For example, we are building on our eCommerce capabilities and Digital First mindset (over 21% of our global sales are sold online) to become truly omni channel,” Saligram told the<i>Atlanta Business Chronicle.</i></p>\n<p>“We are creating consistent and compelling brand experiences for consumers no matter where they shop, how they shop or when they shop be it buy online, deliver to home, buy online pick up at the store, buy online pick up at curbside or shop at a store.”</p>\n<p>In 2019, Newell had an FCF of$780 million. In the TTM, it was $1.1 billion, a 41% increase. I would expect this FCF growth to continue.</p>\n<p>The performance in the next 24 months ought to be much better than the last 24.</p>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Acuity Brands (AYI)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0fc99bca07cdb144fe2c7208776aed8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>It’s great to see the provider of commercial and residential lighting solutions doing well in the markets after a long stretch of less-than-stellar Acuity Brands shareholder returns.</p>\n<p>For example, if you invested $10,000 in AYI stock in September 2020, today, you would have approximately $17,294. However, if you invested the same $10,000 in its stock three years ago, you’d have $10,609.</p>\n<p>While the company got lost in the woods for a time, it’s been able to find its way back, thanks in part to its hiring of CEO Neil Ashe inJanuary 2020. Ashe has held some high-powered jobs, including being in charge of<b>Walmart’s</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMT</u></b>) eCommerce &amp; Technology unit from 2012 through 2016.</p>\n<p>Ashe replaced Vernon Nagel, who served as Acuity’s CEO for 16 years. Nagel moved into theexecutive chairman role. They ought to make an excellent pairing.</p>\n<p>In the company’s Q3 2021 results, Acuity had a 16% increase in sales to$899.7 million, with a 56% increase in earnings to $2.37 a share. In 2021, it expects growth to continue.</p>\n<p>InJanuary 2019, I suggested that Acuity needed a new CEO who could bring a fresh perspective. Less than a year later, it did just that. Kudos to Nagel for recognizing it was time to move aside.</p>\n<p>Cornerstone Building Brands (CNR)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60a34aa2f9805656c3d30d8bf03763eb\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"227\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: ©iStock.com/Sashick</p>\n<p>Of all the names on this list, Cornerstone Building Brands is the only one I didn’t recognize.</p>\n<p>The North Carolina-based provider of commercial, residential, and repair &amp; remodel building products is the largest manufacturer of exterior building products in North America.</p>\n<p>Although the Cornerstone name only came into existence inNovember 2018after the merger between NCI Building Systems and Ply Gem Parent LLC, the two companies have a history of more than 75 years.</p>\n<p>Since the merger’s completion, CNR stock has experienced its fair share of highs and lows, falling to less than $3 in the March 2020 correction, then recovering to almost $20 in June before settling back into the mid-teens in late September.</p>\n<p>A prominent owner of Cornerstone stock is<b>BlueTower Asset Management</b>, a Texas-based portfolio manager. The company’s Global Value Strategy owns17 stocks, CNR being the largest weighting at 18.6% of the portfolio.</p>\n<p>Here’s what BlueTower had to say about Cornerstone in itsQ2 2021 shareholder letter:</p>\n<p>“As the company realizes acquisition synergies, the housing boom continues, and Cornerstone pays down debt, the company’s value will become apparent to investors and share price will rise to meet its true fundamental value,” BlueTower portfolio manager Andrew Oskoui wrote.</p>\n<p>“Investors who were previously repelled by the high debt levels will invest at lower leverage levels. The share price has already tripled from the average price our long-term investors in the strategy composite paid, but we still believe the company has a high expected forward rate of return.”</p>\n<p>What’s not to like?</p>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: BellRing Brands (BRBR)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00df020d2a1a57e564587b5d95e0c571\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: rblfmr / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>If you’ve ever eaten a PowerBar, you’ve heard of and supported BellRing Brands.</p>\n<p>In October 2019,<b>Post Holdings</b>(NYSE:<b><u>POST</u></b>) spun off its former active nutrition business — PowerBar, Premier Protein, and Dymatize brands — selling 39.43 million shares at $14 per share. It raised approximately$516.4 millionfrom the IPO. It used the proceeds to pay down some debt owed to the parent and buy shares of the operating company, BellRing Brands LLC.</p>\n<p>After the IPO, Post owned 71% of BRBR stock. In August 2021, Post announced thatit plans to distributemost of this stake to shareholders. The move’s expected to include a special cash dividend for Post shareholders.</p>\n<p>At the same time, it announced the distribution; it also announced Q3 2021 results. Sales in the quarter jumped 68% over last year to $342.6 million, while its operating profit increased by 68% to $51.5 million.</p>\n<p>BellRing’s TTM FCF is$214.3 million. Based on a market cap of $1.3 billion, it has an FCF yield of 16.5%, well into value territory.</p>\n<p>If I’m a Post shareholder, I’d be hanging on to my BellRing shares for the long haul.</p>\n<p><i>On the date of publication, Will Ashworthdid not have (either directly or indirectly) any positions in the securities mentioned in this article.The opinions expressed in this article are those of the writer, subject to the</i>InvestorPlace.comPublishing Guidelines<i>.</i></p>\n<p><i>Will Ashworth has written about investments full-time since 2008.

My fellowInvestorPlacecontributor Dana Blankenhorn calls it the most fascinating IPO of the year.\n“Authentic’s S-1has more pictures thanPinterest(NYSE:PINS), but tells little about the business. The numbers are for 2020, before a host of recent deals. It only identifies direct licensing revenue, $488 million of it in that year. But $211 million of that money, 43%, wound up as net income. This is said to justify a $10 billion enterprise valuation,” Dana wrote on Sep. 20.\nI agree with my colleague. It’s definitely up there. Heck, by the time I’ve written this, the company’s stock might be eligible for my newest portfolio.\nBut, for now,Finviz.comtells me there are34 public companieswith the word “Brands” as part of their corporate name. So, I’ll recommend the seven best stocks to buy from the bunch.\n\nRestaurant Brands International(NYSE:QSR)\nConstellation Brands(NYSE:STZ)\nFortune Brands Home & Security(NYSE:FBHS)\nNewell Brands(NASDAQ:NWL)\nAcuity Brands(NYSE:AYI)\nCornerstone Building Brands(NYSE:CNR)\nBellRing Brands(NYSE:BRBR)\n\nStocks to Buy: Restaurant Brands International (QSR)\nI begrudgingly put Restaurant Brands International, the owner of Tim Hortons, Burger King and Popeye’s, on my list of stocks to buy.\nBurger King acquired Tim Hortons in 2014 to form RBI. Ever since, I’ve had a hard time accepting the merger, given Burger King’s CEO made each Tim Horton’s head office employee justify their jobs in15-minute interviews.\nTo date, I’d say I was right to be concerned about the poor treatment of employees. Over the past five years through Sept. 22, QSR stock has a total return of 9.0%, less than the Canadian market on the whole and nearly half the return of the entire U.S. market.\nIn August, Tim Hortons China, a joint-venture between RBI and Hong Kong private equity firmCartesian Capital, agreed to merge withSilver Crest Acquisition Corp.(NASDAQ:SLCR) in a transaction that valued the Chinese segment of Tim Hortons at$1.7 billion.\nAs long as3G Capitalcontinues to own almost 30% of RBI stock, I’ll remain cautious in my praise.\nHowever, with$1.35 billionin trailing 12-month (TTM) free cash flow (FCF) and a 7.0% FCF yield, now could be an opportune time to pick up some shares.\nConstellation Brands (STZ)Source: ShinoStock / Shutterstock.com\nA telltale sign Constellation Brands has become a big deal in corporate America is therecent announcementthat it would move 400 of its employees from its offices in Canandaigua, New York, to downtown Rochester.\n“The company investment is estimated at $50 million, while Landers [Peter Landers, majority investor in group that owns the downtown property] says the owners/developers’ will spend close to $35 million on historic restoration, stripping paint from the barrel ceilings and brick walls, and building a 120-space parking structure,” TheDemocrat & Chroniclereported.\nWhile Constellation is known for Corona and Modelo beer, Svedka vodka, and Woodbridge wine, amongst others, it isthe company’s investmentinCanopy Growth(NASDAQ:CGC) that gets most of the attention.\nThat’s because it’s taking forever to see the benefits of its multi-billion-dollar investment in the Canadian cannabis company. Since it acquired9.9% in October 2017, STZ stock has gone sideways over nearly 48 months.\nAs a glass-half-full kind of person, I see the potential upside of its Canopy investment as a big reason to buy at current prices.\nConstellation has a TTM FCF of$2.0 billion, good for an FCF yield of 4.9%. When you consider the value yet to be extracted by its investment, STZ’s valuation is more than reasonable.\nStocks to Buy: Fortune Brands Home & Security (FBHS)Source: Shutterstock\nFortune Brands Home & Security wasspun offfromFortune Brands Inc, part of the then-holding company’s plan to deliver additional value for its shareholders almost a decade ago.\nAt the same time, it sold its Acushnet business for $1.225 billion and renamed Fortune Brands asBeam Inc., the holding company’s spirits business. Beam was subsequently sold toSuntory Holdingsin 2014 for $16 billion, including the assumption of debt.\nFortune shareholders got one share of FBHS for each share in the parent. FBHS stock has generated a total return of 22.4% over the past decade, 548 basis points higher than the entire U.S. market.\nThe company hasthree operating segments: Plumbing, Outdoors & Security, and Cabinets. Its brands include Moen faucets, Larson doors, Master Lock locks, MasterBrand cabinets, and many more.\nTogether, they have TTM sales of $7.02 billion, $1.03 billion in operating income, $650 million in FCF, and an FCF yield of 5.0%.\nIt’s a great business to own for the long haul.\nNewell Brands (NWL)Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com\nNewell CEO Ravi Saligram was recently named one ofAtlanta’s best CEOsby theAtlanta Business Chronicle.Saligram joined Newell as CEO inOctober 2019. Before that, he was CEO ofRitchie Bros. Auctioneers(NYSE:RBA) from July 2014 to July 2019 and OfficeMax from November 2010 to November 2013. In addition, he oversaw the merger between OfficeMax and Office Depot.\nHe’s been an executive for many years working in several different industries. Since joining Newell, NWL stock has gained 32% over nearly 24 months. That compares to 50% for theS&P 500 indexover the same period.\nOver the years, Newell Brands became quite bloated, with too many businesses generating too few profits. Newell might have underperformed so far in Saligram’s tenure, but he’s doing his best to set the company up for sustainable growth.\n“Along our journey, we will add capabilities to build competitive advantage. For example, we are building on our eCommerce capabilities and Digital First mindset (over 21% of our global sales are sold online) to become truly omni channel,” Saligram told theAtlanta Business Chronicle.\n“We are creating consistent and compelling brand experiences for consumers no matter where they shop, how they shop or when they shop be it buy online, deliver to home, buy online pick up at the store, buy online pick up at curbside or shop at a store.”\nIn 2019, Newell had an FCF of$780 million. In the TTM, it was $1.1 billion, a 41% increase. I would expect this FCF growth to continue.\nThe performance in the next 24 months ought to be much better than the last 24.\nStocks to Buy: Acuity Brands (AYI)Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com\nIt’s great to see the provider of commercial and residential lighting solutions doing well in the markets after a long stretch of less-than-stellar Acuity Brands shareholder returns.\nFor example, if you invested $10,000 in AYI stock in September 2020, today, you would have approximately $17,294. However, if you invested the same $10,000 in its stock three years ago, you’d have $10,609.\nWhile the company got lost in the woods for a time, it’s been able to find its way back, thanks in part to its hiring of CEO Neil Ashe inJanuary 2020. Ashe has held some high-powered jobs, including being in charge ofWalmart’s(NYSE:WMT) eCommerce & Technology unit from 2012 through 2016.\nAshe replaced Vernon Nagel, who served as Acuity’s CEO for 16 years. Nagel moved into theexecutive chairman role. They ought to make an excellent pairing.\nIn the company’s Q3 2021 results, Acuity had a 16% increase in sales to$899.7 million, with a 56% increase in earnings to $2.37 a share. In 2021, it expects growth to continue.\nInJanuary 2019, I suggested that Acuity needed a new CEO who could bring a fresh perspective. Less than a year later, it did just that. Kudos to Nagel for recognizing it was time to move aside.\nCornerstone Building Brands (CNR)Source: ©iStock.com/Sashick\nOf all the names on this list, Cornerstone Building Brands is the only one I didn’t recognize.\nThe North Carolina-based provider of commercial, residential, and repair & remodel building products is the largest manufacturer of exterior building products in North America.\nAlthough the Cornerstone name only came into existence inNovember 2018after the merger between NCI Building Systems and Ply Gem Parent LLC, the two companies have a history of more than 75 years.\nSince the merger’s completion, CNR stock has experienced its fair share of highs and lows, falling to less than $3 in the March 2020 correction, then recovering to almost $20 in June before settling back into the mid-teens in late September.\nA prominent owner of Cornerstone stock isBlueTower Asset Management, a Texas-based portfolio manager. The company’s Global Value Strategy owns17 stocks, CNR being the largest weighting at 18.6% of the portfolio.\nHere’s what BlueTower had to say about Cornerstone in itsQ2 2021 shareholder letter:\n“As the company realizes acquisition synergies, the housing boom continues, and Cornerstone pays down debt, the company’s value will become apparent to investors and share price will rise to meet its true fundamental value,” BlueTower portfolio manager Andrew Oskoui wrote.\n“Investors who were previously repelled by the high debt levels will invest at lower leverage levels. The share price has already tripled from the average price our long-term investors in the strategy composite paid, but we still believe the company has a high expected forward rate of return.”\nWhat’s not to like?\nStocks to Buy: BellRing Brands (BRBR)Source: rblfmr / Shutterstock.com\nIf you’ve ever eaten a PowerBar, you’ve heard of and supported BellRing Brands.\nIn October 2019,Post Holdings(NYSE:POST) spun off its former active nutrition business — PowerBar, Premier Protein, and Dymatize brands — selling 39.43 million shares at $14 per share. It raised approximately$516.4 millionfrom the IPO. It used the proceeds to pay down some debt owed to the parent and buy shares of the operating company, BellRing Brands LLC.\nAfter the IPO, Post owned 71% of BRBR stock. In August 2021, Post announced thatit plans to distributemost of this stake to shareholders. The move’s expected to include a special cash dividend for Post shareholders.\nAt the same time, it announced the distribution; it also announced Q3 2021 results. Sales in the quarter jumped 68% over last year to $342.6 million, while its operating profit increased by 68% to $51.5 million.\nBellRing’s TTM FCF is$214.3 million. Based on a market cap of $1.3 billion, it has an FCF yield of 16.5%, well into value territory.\nIf I’m a Post shareholder, I’d be hanging on to my BellRing shares for the long haul.\nOn the date of publication, Will Ashworthdid not have (either directly or indirectly) any positions in the securities mentioned in this article.The opinions expressed in this article are those of the writer, subject to theInvestorPlace.comPublishing Guidelines.\nWill Ashworth has written about investments full-time since 2008.

I'm not talking about the reasons now, they are obvious. But this fact alone makes the market extremely volatile:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/10623d7cecd8dec70bb229b809458b68\" tg-width=\"1242\" tg-height=\"918\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Bank of America</span></p>\n<p>Second, the relative size of the US stock market has exceeded 200% of nominal GDP. In principle, this is not a fundamental limit. But it was the ultra-soft monetary policy that allowed the US stock market to reach its current record level. And most likely, in this context, a reversal is&nbsp;already outlined.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f69cd6450737ddf3e5fcbd6406c793ba\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: VisualizedAnalytics</span></p>\n<p>And finally the third. The macrocycle also allows us to expect the market to enter a phase of increased volatility and tightening of monetary policy:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d6a6a794dde6f4e1d3e6e9149b55060\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: VisualizedAnalytics</span></p>\n<p>So, objectively, the likelihood of the next correction of the stock market at least deserves attention. And in this context, I propose to answer the question:<i>in case of a correction, which company is inclined to fall harder - Apple (AAPL) or Microsoft (MSFT)?</i></p>\n<p><b>Why Apple vs. Microsoft?</b></p>\n<p>The decision to compare exactly these two companies was dictated by two factors.</p>\n<p>Firstly, these are the two largest companies in the tech sector, together accounting for more than 10% of the total capitalization of the US stock market. These companies are so large that, in principle, their dynamics alone can cause a new wave of correction:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cf3ef401b67c298ecbd9d56d31fc6927\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31417d34d6eacb724c20b3a274068467\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: VisualizedAnalytics</span></p>\n<p>Secondly, both companies pay dividends. In matters of fundamental valuation, this factor plays a significant role.</p>\n<p><b>Some Statistics</b></p>\n<p>To begin with, let's take a look at what price dynamics both companies have shown during strong market fluctuations in the recent past.</p>\n<p>To do this, I have broken the three-year span into eight periods of market movement:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/edfd9dec91d94990cf5217aa649758ac\" tg-width=\"947\" tg-height=\"578\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TradingView, Author</span></p>\n<p>Here are the results that companies have shown in each of the periods:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/868067f19c2251bfdb0658a251596fcc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"214\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author</span></p>\n<p>At first glance, the statistics are unambiguous:<i>during periods of correction, the price of Microsoft tends to decrease less than that of Apple.</i>But on the other hand, Apple has consistently performed better during periods of market growth. And in this case, the result obtained can simply be explained by the technical factors of the market behavior.</p>\n<p>But in the current period of growth, both companies demonstrate approximately the same return. And therefore, here we do not find a clue to our question...</p>\n<p><b>Fundamentals</b></p>\n<p>Exclusively in an investment context, the price of a company's share can be viewed from two points of view.</p>\n<p>On the one hand, the price reflects the present value of the company's&nbsp;<b>future cash flow</b>. On the other hand, the price is the present value of the sum of&nbsp;<b>all potential dividends</b>that the company will pay in the future. Let's model these prices for Apple and Microsoft. And for this I will build, respectively, the Discounted Cash Flow Model and the Dividend Discount Model.</p>\n<p>In order for the models to be less subjective, I will take as a basis the average expectations of analysts regarding the revenue and EPS of the companies in the next decade.</p>\n<p>Let's start with&nbsp;<b>Apple</b>. Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2f8fc4e5dc7025dd1227ea5279073aa5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Author</span></p>\n<p>Notes:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.33%).</li>\n <li>I used the current&nbsp;value&nbsp;of the three-year beta coefficient.

I mean, Apple and Microsoft tend to be undervalued in terms of future cash flow, and overvalued in terms of potential dividends.</p>\n<p>This suggests that during periods of market growth, investors are not particularly inclined to pay attention to dividends. Moreover, most likely dividends are perceived simply as a bonus.</p>\n<p>But during periods of market correction, the present value of potential dividends is the minimum level below which it is difficult for the price to fall.

I'm not talking about the reasons now, they are obvious. But this fact alone makes the market extremely volatile:\nSource: Bank of America\nSecond, the relative size of the US stock market has exceeded 200% of nominal GDP. In principle, this is not a fundamental limit. But it was the ultra-soft monetary policy that allowed the US stock market to reach its current record level. And most likely, in this context, a reversal is already outlined.\nSource: VisualizedAnalytics\nAnd finally the third. The macrocycle also allows us to expect the market to enter a phase of increased volatility and tightening of monetary policy:\nSource: VisualizedAnalytics\nSo, objectively, the likelihood of the next correction of the stock market at least deserves attention. And in this context, I propose to answer the question:in case of a correction, which company is inclined to fall harder - Apple (AAPL) or Microsoft (MSFT)?\nWhy Apple vs. Microsoft?\nThe decision to compare exactly these two companies was dictated by two factors.\nFirstly, these are the two largest companies in the tech sector, together accounting for more than 10% of the total capitalization of the US stock market. These companies are so large that, in principle, their dynamics alone can cause a new wave of correction:\n\nSource: VisualizedAnalytics\nSecondly, both companies pay dividends. In matters of fundamental valuation, this factor plays a significant role.\nSome Statistics\nTo begin with, let's take a look at what price dynamics both companies have shown during strong market fluctuations in the recent past.\nTo do this, I have broken the three-year span into eight periods of market movement:\nSource: TradingView, Author\nHere are the results that companies have shown in each of the periods:\nSource: Author\nAt first glance, the statistics are unambiguous:during periods of correction, the price of Microsoft tends to decrease less than that of Apple.But on the other hand, Apple has consistently performed better during periods of market growth. And in this case, the result obtained can simply be explained by the technical factors of the market behavior.\nBut in the current period of growth, both companies demonstrate approximately the same return. And therefore, here we do not find a clue to our question...\nFundamentals\nExclusively in an investment context, the price of a company's share can be viewed from two points of view.\nOn the one hand, the price reflects the present value of the company's future cash flow. On the other hand, the price is the present value of the sum of all potential dividendsthat the company will pay in the future. Let's model these prices for Apple and Microsoft. And for this I will build, respectively, the Discounted Cash Flow Model and the Dividend Discount Model.\nIn order for the models to be less subjective, I will take as a basis the average expectations of analysts regarding the revenue and EPS of the companies in the next decade.\nLet's start with Apple. Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:\nSource: Author\nNotes:\n\nIn order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.33%).\nI used the current value of the three-year beta coefficient. For a terminal year, I used Beta equal to 1.\nTo calculate the Cost of Debt, I used the interest expense for 2020 divided by the average debt in 2019 and 2018.\n\nHere is the DCF model:\nSource: Author\nThe DCF-based target price for Apple's shares is about $181 (+22%).\nIn the case of Apple, when building the Dividend Discount Model it is also necessary to take into account the fact that the company continues to actively buy back:\nData by YCharts\nContinuing the current dynamics, the model assumes that by the terminal year the number of diluted shares will be reduced to 13.5 billion.\nApple spends an average of 25% of its net income on dividends. I assume that the payout ratio will remain at this level.\nHere is the Dividend Discount Model itself:\nSource: Author\nThe DDM-based target price for Apple's shares is $69 (-54%).\nNow let's take a look at Microsoft.\nHere is the calculation of the WACC:\nSource: Author\nAnd here is the DCF model:\nSource: Author\nThe DCF-based target price for Microsoft's shares is about $353 (+18%).\nMicrosoft is also actively buying back shares:\nData by YCharts\nI proceed from the assumption that the dynamics of the last two years will continue, and by the terminal year, the number of diluted shares will be reduced to 7.2 billion.\nHere is the Dividend Discount Model:\nSource: Author\nThe DDM-based target price for Microsoft's shares is $203 (-32%).\nLet's summarize:\n\nIt is worth noting that I have already been observing similar results in the case of these companies for a long time. I mean, Apple and Microsoft tend to be undervalued in terms of future cash flow, and overvalued in terms of potential dividends.\nThis suggests that during periods of market growth, investors are not particularly inclined to pay attention to dividends. Moreover, most likely dividends are perceived simply as a bonus.\nBut during periods of market correction, the present value of potential dividends is the minimum level below which it is difficult for the price to fall. And in this context, I think Microsoft is in a better position than Apple.\nBottom line\nAt the current stage of the market cycle, when the likelihood of a correction has gone beyond formal, in my opinion, investing in Microsoft is less risky compared to Apple.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":230,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":882230947,"gmtCreate":1631694005389,"gmtModify":1631888526733,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/882230947","repostId":"1148341685","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1148341685","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631660884,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1148341685?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-15 07:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. stocks close lower on worries over recovery, corporate tax hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1148341685","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing likelihood of a corporate tax rate hike dampened investor sentiment and prompted a broad sell-off despite signs of easing inflation.</p>\n<p>Optimism faded throughout the session, reversing an initial rally following the Labor Department’s consumer price index report.

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":64,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":888111346,"gmtCreate":1631454845785,"gmtModify":1631888526768,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/888111346","repostId":"1189654544","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1189654544","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631406130,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1189654544?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-12 08:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US IPO Week Ahead: The Fall IPO market kicks off with a 10 IPO week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189654544","media":"Renaissance Capital","summary":"After a wave of launches in the short holiday week, 10 IPOs are scheduled to raise over $3 billion i","content":"<p>After a wave of launches in the short holiday week, 10 IPOs are scheduled to raise over $3 billion in the week ahead.</p>\n<p>Tech consultancy&nbsp;<b>Thoughtworks</b>(TWKS) plans to raise $700 million at a $6.3 billion market cap.

Apple’s own payment system takes a 30% cut from large developers.</p>\n<p>Data from the app tracker SensorTower shows that in calendar 2020, Apple had overall revenue from the App Store of $72.3 billion, generating an estimated $21.7 billion in fees, or about 7% of Apple’s overall revenues. That includes $21 billion in spending in the U.S., generating about $6.3 billion in fees, or about 2% of annualized revenues.</p>\n<p>SensorTower estimates that mobile-game spending in the App Store in calendar 2020 was $47.6 billion, generating $14.3 billion in fees, or a little under 5% of Apple’s total revenues.</p>\n<p>Gene Munster, managing director of the venture firm Loup Capital and a former sell-side analyst with a long history of tracking Apple, estimated that the App Store accounts for about 14% of the company’s profits. But he sees limited risk from Friday’s ruling.</p>\n<p>Munster thinks most app developers will stay inside of the Apple system. He sees “at most” a 2% headwind to overall revenue, and a potential 4% hit to profits.</p>\n<p>“After the first year of these changes, app store growth rates will return to normal,” he said. “Bottom line, it’s at most a one-year headwind and does not change the big picture of where Apple is going over the next 5 years.”</p>\n<p>Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani said in a research note that the ruling is a setback for Apple, but that the eventual impact is likely to be manageable, given Apple has alternative ways to generate revenue from the store, including its growing in-store ad business.

Apple’s own payment system takes a 30% cut from large developers.\nData from the app tracker SensorTower shows that in calendar 2020, Apple had overall revenue from the App Store of $72.3 billion, generating an estimated $21.7 billion in fees, or about 7% of Apple’s overall revenues. That includes $21 billion in spending in the U.S., generating about $6.3 billion in fees, or about 2% of annualized revenues.\nSensorTower estimates that mobile-game spending in the App Store in calendar 2020 was $47.6 billion, generating $14.3 billion in fees, or a little under 5% of Apple’s total revenues.\nGene Munster, managing director of the venture firm Loup Capital and a former sell-side analyst with a long history of tracking Apple, estimated that the App Store accounts for about 14% of the company’s profits. But he sees limited risk from Friday’s ruling.\nMunster thinks most app developers will stay inside of the Apple system. He sees “at most” a 2% headwind to overall revenue, and a potential 4% hit to profits.\n“After the first year of these changes, app store growth rates will return to normal,” he said. “Bottom line, it’s at most a one-year headwind and does not change the big picture of where Apple is going over the next 5 years.”\nEvercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani said in a research note that the ruling is a setback for Apple, but that the eventual impact is likely to be manageable, given Apple has alternative ways to generate revenue from the store, including its growing in-store ad business. And he noted that Apple actually got a win on a bigger issue in the case: The judge rejected Epic’s assertion that the App Store is an illegal monopoly. Daryanani estimated the risk to Apple’s per-share earnings at 2% to 4%.\nWedbush analyst Dan Ives told Barron’s he thinks the worst-case scenario is a 3% to 4% hit to revenues, describing the risk as a “rounding error.” While Ives said the Street had expected an across-the-board win for Apple, the mixed decision removes an overhang on the stock and that investors are likely relieved to put the issue to rest.\nThe ruling is more a positive for companies like Spotify Technology and Match Group than it is a negative for Apple, he said. Apple stock fell 3.3% to $148.97 on Friday, while Spotify and March gained 0.7% and 4.2%, respectively.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":91,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883727747,"gmtCreate":1631275937489,"gmtModify":1631888526803,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/883727747","repostId":"2166532071","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":47,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":127657189,"gmtCreate":1624847703541,"gmtModify":1631892507504,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls!","listText":"Like pls!","text":"Like pls!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/127657189","repostId":"2146007118","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146007118","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624826996,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2146007118?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-28 04:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"June jobs report, Consumer confidence: What to know this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146007118","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This week's packed slate of economic data reports will include an update on the labor market and new data on consumer confidence, offering fresh looks at the pace and perception of the COVID-19 recovery for many Americans.On Friday, the Labor Department will release its June jobs report.

Many have agreed that a combination of childcare concerns, fears of contracting COVID-19 and ongoing enhanced federal unemployment benefits have contributed to the still-elevated levels of joblessness, but that each of these should diminish as schools reopen, vaccinations continue and jobless benefits get phased out over the next several months.</p>\n<p>\"Labor supply may soon pick up,\" Meyer said. \"We find evidence of a quicker drop in unemployment insurance (UI) applications in states that discontinued generous federal UI benefits.\"</p>\n<p>\"Four states — Alaska, Iowa, Mississippi and Missouri — opted out in June 12 and UI applications in those states have fallen faster compared to other states, according to the latest initial jobless claims figures,\" she added. \"With another eight states opting out in the week ending June 19 and a total of 25 states by end of the summer, more workers should return to the workforce, helping to ease wage pressures and help meet the strong labor demand in the economy.\"</p>\n<h2>Consumer confidence</h2>\n<h2></h2>\n<p>Another closely watched economic data print this week will be the Conference Board's June consumer confidence index, which is expected to reflect a strong pick-up in sentiment during the recovery and heading into the summer. The report is due for release Tuesday morning.</p>\n<p>The headline index is likely to rise to 119.0 for June from 117.2 in May, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would mark the highest level since February 2020's 132.6, which itself had been a near two-decade high.</p>\n<p>Like investors, consumers have begun to warm to the notion that inflationary pressures seen during the early stages of the economic recovery may prove transitory. This has helped raise consumers' future expectations for their spending power and boosted sentiment at large, according to other consumer sentiment surveys including the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers.</p>\n<p>Not only did year-ahead inflation expectations fall slightly to 4.2% in June from May's decade peak of 4.6%, consumers also believed that the price surges will mostly be temporary,\" Richard Curtin, chief economist for the Surveys of Consumers, said on Friday.</p>\n<p>\"When the pandemic first started, consumers were quite uncertain about their job and income prospects, but reported widespread declines in market prices for homes, vehicles, and household durables,\" he added. \"Those favorable price references have dropped to the most negative in a decade, and job and income prospects have improved, but not quite as favorable as in the last few years of the prior expansion.\"</p>\n<p>Still, in a sign of some downside risk in Tuesday's report from the Conference Board, the University of Michigan's June final sentiment index edged lower to 85.5, coming in below the 86.4 preliminary print, but still above May's reading of 82.9.</p>\n<h2>Economic Calendar</h2>\n<ul>\n <li><p><b>Monday: </b>Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity Index, June (32.5 expected, 34.9 in May)</p></li>\n <li><p><b>Tuesday: </b>FHFA House Price Index, month-on-month, April (1.7% expected, 1.4% in March);

Many have agreed that a combination of childcare concerns, fears of contracting COVID-19 and ongoing enhanced federal unemployment benefits have contributed to the still-elevated levels of joblessness, but that each of these should diminish as schools reopen, vaccinations continue and jobless benefits get phased out over the next several months.\n\"Labor supply may soon pick up,\" Meyer said. \"We find evidence of a quicker drop in unemployment insurance (UI) applications in states that discontinued generous federal UI benefits.\"\n\"Four states — Alaska, Iowa, Mississippi and Missouri — opted out in June 12 and UI applications in those states have fallen faster compared to other states, according to the latest initial jobless claims figures,\" she added. \"With another eight states opting out in the week ending June 19 and a total of 25 states by end of the summer, more workers should return to the workforce, helping to ease wage pressures and help meet the strong labor demand in the economy.\"\nConsumer confidence\n\nAnother closely watched economic data print this week will be the Conference Board's June consumer confidence index, which is expected to reflect a strong pick-up in sentiment during the recovery and heading into the summer. The report is due for release Tuesday morning.\nThe headline index is likely to rise to 119.0 for June from 117.2 in May, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would mark the highest level since February 2020's 132.6, which itself had been a near two-decade high.\nLike investors, consumers have begun to warm to the notion that inflationary pressures seen during the early stages of the economic recovery may prove transitory. This has helped raise consumers' future expectations for their spending power and boosted sentiment at large, according to other consumer sentiment surveys including the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers.\nNot only did year-ahead inflation expectations fall slightly to 4.2% in June from May's decade peak of 4.6%, consumers also believed that the price surges will mostly be temporary,\" Richard Curtin, chief economist for the Surveys of Consumers, said on Friday.\n\"When the pandemic first started, consumers were quite uncertain about their job and income prospects, but reported widespread declines in market prices for homes, vehicles, and household durables,\" he added. \"Those favorable price references have dropped to the most negative in a decade, and job and income prospects have improved, but not quite as favorable as in the last few years of the prior expansion.\"\nStill, in a sign of some downside risk in Tuesday's report from the Conference Board, the University of Michigan's June final sentiment index edged lower to 85.5, coming in below the 86.4 preliminary print, but still above May's reading of 82.9.\nEconomic Calendar\n\nMonday: Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity Index, June (32.5 expected, 34.9 in May)\nTuesday: FHFA House Price Index, month-on-month, April (1.7% expected, 1.4% in March);

However, the company also said it produced none of its higher-end Model S sedans or Model X SUVs for the period ending March. It delivered2,020 older Model S sedans and Model X SUVs from inventory.</p><p>On Monday’s earnings call, Musk said the new version of the company’s Model S sedans will finally be delivered to customers starting in May 2021, with Model X deliveries to begin in the third quarter of the year. Musk and CFO Zachary Kirkhorn both said supply chain issues are likely to remain a challenge for Tesla this year.</p><p>In January 2021 (during a fourth-quarter 2020 earnings update) Musk had said that the Model S Plaid was already in production would be delivered starting in February 2021. But he admitted on Monday, “There were more challenges than expected,” in producing the refreshed version of these vehicles. He did not elaborate.</p><p>Tesla is now aiming to produce 2,000 Model S and X vehicles per week later this year.</p><p>The company said Monday it expects more than 50% vehicle delivery growth in 2021 overall, which implies minimum deliveries around 750,000 vehicles this year.</p><p>The fact Tesla grew vehicle unit sales by more than 100% year over year but grew service centers by only 28% and its mobile service fleet by only 22% explains why some Tesla customers face frustratingly long wait times for repairs. Service expansion is not keeping pace with the volume of vehicles sold.</p><p>Tesla said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.” It did not disclose the names of its new suppliers.</p><p>It also reiterated Musk’s frequent claim that cameras, not radar, are a better path toward autonomous vehicles. “Our AI-based software architecture has been increasingly reliant on cameras, to the point where radar is becoming unnecessary earlier than expected. As a result, our FSD [Full Self-Driving] team is fully focused on evolving to a vision-based autonomous system and we are nearly ready to switch the US market to Tesla Vision,” the company said in its earnings release.</p><p>Revenue for its energy generation and storage business nearly doubled for Tesla versus the same period in 2020, when Musk said Covid, then an emerging pandemic, had slowed its energy business to a crawl. But energy revenue declined from $787 million in the fourth quarter to $595 million in the first quarter of 2021.</p><p>Recently, Tesla increased prices for its solar rooftops by 50%, and now requires anyone ordering solar photovoltaics (including Tesla solar roof tiles) to also order the Powerwall, Tesla’s home energy storage system. The sudden price change applied retroactively to some&nbsp;vexed customers.</p><p>Musk said on the Q1 2021 call that he is aiming for homes with solar rooftops and batteries from Tesla to function as a “giant distributed utility” that can help incumbent electrical utilities supply customers with all the electricity they need as demand and extreme weather events increase.</p><p>Executives did not say how they would change their production or mix of battery cells from suppliers in order to make a higher volume of vehicles and energy storage products in 2021.</p><p>Musk said the company’s 4680 cells, which it developed independently and makes at a pilot plant in Fremont, California, are not yet reliable enough to be shipped in Tesla vehicles.

All three major U.S. stock indexes ended in negative territory in a reminder that September is a historically rough month for stocks.\nSo far this month the S&P 500 is down nearly 1.8% even as the benchmark index has gained over 18% since the beginning of the year.\n“There is a possibility that the market is simply ready to go through an overdue correction,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research in New York. “From a seasonality perspective, September tends to be the window dressing period for fund managers.”\nThe advent of the highly contagious Delta COVID variant has driven an increase in bearish sentiment regarding the recovery from the global health crisis, and many now expect a substantial correction in stock markets by the end of the year.\n“We’re still in a corrective mode that people have been calling for months,” said Paul Nolte, portfolio manager at Kingsview Asset Management in Chicago. “Economic data points have been missing estimates, and that has coincided with the rise in the Delta variant.”\nThe CPI report delivered a lower-than-consensus August reading, a deceleration that supports Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s assertion that spiking inflation is transitory and calms market fears that the central bank will begin tightening monetary policy sooner than expected.\nU.S. Treasury yields dropped on the data, which pressured financial stocks, and investor favor pivoted back to growth at the expense of value. [US/]\nThe long expected corporate tax hikes, to 26.5% from 21% if Democrats prevail, are coming nearer to fruition with U.S. President Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget package inching closer to passage.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 292.06 points, or 0.84%, to 34,577.57; the S&P 500 lost 25.68 points, or 0.57%, at 4,443.05; and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 67.82 points, or 0.45%, to 15,037.76.\nAll 11 major sectors in the S&P 500 ended the session red, with energy and financials suffering the largest percentage drops.\nApple Inc unveiled its iPhone 13 and added new features to its iPad and Apple Watch gadgets in its biggest product launch event of the year as the company faces increased scrutiny in the courts over its business practices. Its shares closed down 1.0% and were the heaviest drag on the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq.\nIntuit Inc gained 1.9% following the TurboTax maker’s announcement that it would acquire digital marketing company Mailchimp for $12 billion.\nCureVac slid 8.0% after the German biotechnology company canceled manufacturing deals for its experimental COVID-19 vaccine.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.25-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.40-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted two new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 50 new highs and 107 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 10.07 billion shares, compared with the 9.38 billion average over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":123,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":882938576,"gmtCreate":1631638836095,"gmtModify":1631888526735,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/882938576","repostId":"1132829556","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1132829556","kind":"news","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":1631633374,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1132829556?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-14 23:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"ASML shares rose more than 2% to a record high","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1132829556","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"ASML shares rose more than 2% to a record high.\n\nASML Holding is a Dutch multinational company speci","content":"<p>ASML shares rose more than 2% to a record high.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cd6348a23222a85407f86801d5c1403f\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>ASML Holding&nbsp;is a Dutch multinational company specializing in developing, producing, and maintaining photolithography machines.

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992. They manage through it and lately they’ve been delivering,” he said.Week ahead calendarMondayEarnings:Tesla,Canadian National Railway, Canon,Check Point Software,Otis Worldwide, Vale,Ameriprise,NXP Semiconductor,Albertsons, Royal Phillips8:30 a.m. Durable goodsTuesdayFOMC begins two day meetingEarnings:Microsoft,Alphabet,Visa,Amgen,Advanced Micro Devices,3M,General Electric,Eli Lilly, Hasbro,United Parcel Service,BP,Novartis,JetBlue,Pultegroup,Archer Daniels Midland,Waste Management,Starbucks,Texas Instrument,Chubb,Mondelez,FireEye,Corning,Raytheon9:00 a.m. S&P/Case-Shiller9:00 a.m. FHFA home prices10:00 a.m. Consumer confidence10:00 a.m. Housing vacanciesWednesdayEarnings:Apple, Boeing,Facebook,Qualcomm,Ford,MGM Resorts,Humana,Norfolk Southern,General Dynamics,Boston Scientific, eBay, Samsung Electronics, GlaxoSmithKline,Yum Brands, SiriusXM, Aflac,Cheesecake Factory,Community Health System,CIT Group,Entergy,CME Group,Hess,Ryder System8:30 a.m. Advance economic indicators2:00 p.m. Fed statement2:30 p.m. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell briefingThursdayEarnings:Amazon,Caterpillar,McDonald’s,Twitter,Bristol-Myers Squibb,Comcast,Merck,Northrop Grumman, Airbus,Kraft Heinz,Intercontinental Exchange,Mastercard,Gilead Sciences,U.S. Steel, Cirrus Logic,Texas Roadhouse, Cabot Oil, PG&E,Royal Dutch Shell,Church & Dwight, Carlyle Group,Southern Co.8:30 a.m. Initial jobless claims8:30 a.m. Real GDP Q110:00 a.m. Pending home salesFridayEarnings:ExxonMobil,Chevron,Colgate-Palmolive,AstraZeneca,Clorox,Barclays, AbbVie, BNP Paribas,Weyerhaeuser,Illinois Tool Works, CBOE Global Markets, Lazard,Newell Brands,Aon,LyondellBasell,Pitney Bowes,Phillips 66,Charter Communications8:30 a.m. Personal income and spending8:30 a.m. Employment cost index Q19:45 a.m. Chicago PMI10:00 a.m. Consumer sentimentSaturdayEarnings:Berkshire Hathaway","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371728066,"gmtCreate":1618973571655,"gmtModify":1634289490833,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Help me to like pls!

The new thinner design looks a lot like a big iPad.\nApple launches new iMac with new colors.Source: Apple Inc.\nApple says the volume of the computer has been reduced by 50%, resulting in a smaller computer that can fit on a desk more easily. It comes with a 24-inch built-in display and an improved camera that can record 1080p video in low light. Apple says the display runs at \"4.5K\" resolution.\nIt ships with a new magnetic power connector reminiscent of Apple's previous MagSafe laptop chargers and a slightly updated keyboard with an emoji key and a fingerprint sensor.

It will be on store shelves on April 30.\nIt uses Apple technology called Find My, which uses a network of iPhones to find lost objects. It’s using a technique Apple calls “precision finding” that it says is privacy-sensitive.\nThis product has been the source of some scrutiny from lawmakers who have heard that Apple is privileging its own lost-item trackers over others’ using anticompetitive practices and access to the iPhone operating system. Find My opened to third-party accessory makers last month.— Kif Leswing\nApple introduces new iPhone 12 color: Purple\nApple launches a new purple color iPhone for Spring.Source: Apple\nIt goes up for preorder on Friday and will ship on April 30.— Kif Leswing\nApple launching podcast subscription service\nApple announced that it’s launching its podcast subscription service next month, putting itself up further against Spotify and other competitors in the audio streaming wars.\nThe company is also redesigning its Apple Podcast app.\n— Jessica Bursztynsky\nApple says that credit scores are unfair, expands Apple Card to kids over 13 years old\nCEO Tim Cook said Apple will allow partners and spouses to share a credit line on a credit card, allowing both people to build credit scores.

In 2019, Apple’s spring announcement focused on services such asApple TV+and theApple Card. But it also announced new iPads in 2018 during an education-focused event at a school in Chicago.\nLast fall, Apple broadcast three prerecorded product launch events in three months, each of which garnered millions of live viewers on YouTube.— Kif Leswing\nYes, the Apple online store is down. No, it’s not a problem, it’s a tradition.\nScreenshot/Apple.com\nOne of Apple’s silliest traditions is that on the morning of an event it pulls its online Apple store down, giving up a few hours of online sales in exchange for building hype over its new products. Apple has done this for years, and technology has certainly gotten to the point where Apple could update its store without downtime — it does it all the time — but why mess with a tradition?— Kif Leswing\nWhat’s at stake for Apple?\nI wrote yesterday about some of thetensions bubbling under the surface at Apple. Yes, this is just another product event, but there are a lot of headaches on the horizon that could threaten its growth, especially in the App Store.\nThere’s the war of words withFacebookover theimpending iOS privacy feature. There’s the upcoming trial with Epic Games that centers on Apple’s control of the App Store. And then there’s Apple’s dependence on China, which is an obvious target for Apple critics. (Just ask Peter Thiel.)\nRead all about it right here.\n— Steve Kovach\nCook gets ready to kick off the event\nAppleCEO Tim Cook is gearing up for Tuesday’s “Spring Loaded” event, where the company is expected to announce new iPads and potentially a handful of other products. “It’s a beautiful spring morning for an #AppleEvent!

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

Millions of Americans were out of work, stores were physically shut down and there was a growing list of retail bankruptcies. Last June, the World Bank predicted Covid-19 would gut the global economy, triggering the “worst recession since World War II.”Economists are far more optimistic these days. With vaccines making their way into arms and life beginning to return to a sense of normalcy,the U.S. economy is projected to boomin the second quarter. Consumer spending is expected to lead the way in making the economy “sizzle.” These seven hot stocks arePortfolio Grader“A-rated” picks.Each is set to reward investors as an explosion of consumerism fuels growth:Boston Beer Company (NYSE:SAM)BRP Group (NASDAQ:DOOO)Hain Celestial (NASDAQ:HAIN)Nio (NYSE:NIO)Nu Skin Enterprises (NYSE:NUS)Simply Good Foods (NASDAQ:SMPL)Sony (NYSE:SONY)If you’re eyeing any of these hot stocks, don’t wait too long. While previously untouchabletech stocks have struggled in 2021, some of these have already kicked off impressive growth trajectories this year.1、Hot Stocks: Boston Beer Company (SAM)2020 was a year marked by restaurant closures, cancelled vacations, requests for people to self-isolate and frowned-upon social gatherings. Not great news for a beer company, you would think.However, despite the challenging circumstances, Boston Beer Company continued its streak ofquarterly double-digit volume growth throughout the year.In its fourth quarter, the company reported shipments up 54% year-over-year, while revenue was up 53%. The company is starting out 2021 by adding Truly Iced Tea hard seltzer to its established brands, including Samuel Adams, Twisted Tea and Dogfish Head.SAM stock posted an impressive gain of 163% in 2020. It has followed that up with a gain of 30% so far in 2021. With restaurants and bars re-opening, backyard BBQs back on and summer vacations looking like a possibility, look for that growth to continue.2、BRP Group (DOOO)BRP Group owns a long list of brands that are very well-known among outdoor activities enthusiasts. The company makes Ski-Doo snowmobiles, Evinrude outboard boat engines, Can-Am three-wheel motorcycles, Sea-Doo watercraft and others.All of these products have one things in common: their market is primarily recreational. When the economy is sputtering and people are laid off, big-ticket recreational purchases suffer. Temporarily shuttered showrooms don’t help. Neither does having to shut down manufacturing facilities during Covid-19 outbreaks.The impact of the pandemic was felt by BRP Group, which saw itsQ2 revenue drop 15.5% YoY.DOOO stock took a big hit early last year, but rallied as the summer approached. It closed at a new high of $32.58 last November, marking 121% growth over six months. With the economy heating up along with the weather andstimulus checks arriving in the mail, DOOO stock is positioned for another hot summer of growth. In fact it may be one of the top hot stocks on the list.3、Hain Celestial(HAIN)When we were in lockdown, trying to save money because of layoffs, and/or avoiding crowds in grocery stores in 2020, food was about getting in the essentials. People were fighting overbasics like flour!Now that we’re in recovery, consumers can afford to be pickier. In addition, after a year of the pandemic,many people have gained weightand are concerned about their health.That sets the stage for Hain Celestial to make big gains in the supermarket. The company offers a wide range of food brands, many of them aimed at healthy eaters. You’ll find names like Avalon Organics, Celestial Seasonings, Earth’s Best Organic, Health Valley and Yves Veggie Cuisine under the Hain Celestial umbrella.After a four-year slide that saw HAIN stock shed three quarters of its value, the company’s fortunes turned around in 2019. In 2020, that accelerated. So far in 2021, shares are up 12% and that trend is only going to expand as health-conscious consumers open their wallets.4、Nio (NIO)Don’t make the mistake of leaving China out of the equation. Yes, the company makes many of the products that American consumers are expecting to be shelling out for. But Chinese consumers are also a force to be reckoned with. That country was the first to recover from the pandemic, and it’s the first to be experiencing a big economic rebound.Chinese consumers aren’t just buying clothes and electronics. They’re buying big-ticket items, including cars. EV sales are on fire in the U.S. and they are also surging in popularity in China. Chinese EV pioneer Nio wasstruggling to survive in 2019. In 2020, it fixed its quality control issues, released new models, and introduced a popular Battery-as-a-Service model.Nio EVs are an aspirational purchase for affluent Chinese consumers, and they have been snapping up the cars. In March, that amounted to an all-time record 7,257 EVs delivered for the company — up 373% YoY.NIO stock neared $63 in February (it closed off 2019 below $2.50), before being caught up in the tech stock selloff. With shares now around $40, NIO stock is a big opportunity. It’s not only one of the hot stocks to take advantage of the explosion in consumer spending, it’s also a great pick to ride the EV wave.5、Nu Skin (NUS)After a year of avoiding crowds, wearing masks and often working from home, the beauty industry was upended by the pandemic. Products like lipstick saw sales plummet. However, skin care was in. The market was already on the rise, but concerns like “maskne” — that’s acne caused by wearing a mask for hours at a time — really helped to push skin care to the forefront.NuSkin primarily specializes in skin care and anti-aging regimes including cleansers, toners, peels, creams and even $300+ powered devices for home spa treatments. Much of that is sold directly by the company, online. In the fourth quarter,Nu Skin sold $748.2 million worth of these home skin care treatments. That’s a 28% YoY increase. Q4 earnings of $1.40 per share were up 94% and smashed Wall Street estimates.Over the past 12 months, NUS stock is up 138%. It’s on a trajectory that shows no sign of levelling out any time soon.6、Simply Good Foods (SMPL)After a year of snacking and eating comfort food, Americans have paid the price. According to a survey published onWebMD,76% of Americans packed on the pounds during the pandemic. The so-called “the quarantine 15” is real. Being able to dress casual isn’t the only reason why sweatpants have been so popular.Simply Good Foods brands owns two popular weight loss and nutritional snacking brands: Atkins and Quest. These saw softer sales during the pandemic.The company noted the effect of “temporary softer consumer interest in weight management during COVID-19 era along with lower on-the-go usage occasions.”However, consumers have proven they’re willing to spend money to get rid of extra weight — especially if they can do so without having to spend hours at the gym or give up on snacking altogether. In addition, as the country re-opens and workers start moving back to the office, on-the-go snacking will begin again. That’s a recipe for growth for Simply Good Foods. SMPL stock has posted a gain of 88% over the past 12 months. As sales ramp back up, it’s in a great position to continue that growth.7、Sony (SONY)Sony still makes many of the gadgets the company used to be known for, including TVs and audio equipment. It still has a thriving image sensor and camera business. Believe it or not, the company isstill in the smartphone business. It has valuable movie and music businesses as well. But all of these pale in comparison to video games.Video game consoles, Sony video games and membership fees for gaming servicesaccounted for over 40% of the company’s profit last year.One of 2020’s must-have purchases was the Sony PlayStation 5 next-gen game console. Despite only being launched in November, the company sold 4.5 million of them last year. Four months into 2021, PS5 consoles remain difficult to find on store shelves. An industry-wide processor shortage isn’t helping, but the fact is the PS5 is hot. With the console just starting its life-cycle, look for Sony to be enjoying years of benefits, including sales of games, accessories and gaming memberships.After a rough 12 years, from 2000 to 2012 (during which shares lost over 90% of their value), SONY stock has been posting solid growth. That includes a 82% gain over the past 12 months. With gamers snapping up new PlayStation consoles at $399 and $499 a pop, look for this hot stock to be a big performer for the foreseeable future.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":181,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881463407,"gmtCreate":1631377299809,"gmtModify":1631888526796,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/881463407","repostId":"1147045390","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147045390","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631321547,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1147045390?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-11 08:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Apple’s Risk Is Limited","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147045390","media":"Barrons","summary":"Apple faces real, but limited, risk to its revenue and profits from Friday’s ruling that requires it to allow developers to offer alternative payment methods for purchases made in apps downloaded through the Apple app store.In a case filed by Fortnite publisher Epic Games, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a permanent injunction that requires Apple  to allow developers the option to include links to alternative payment methods in their apps.

Apple stock fell 3.3% to $148.97 on Friday, while Spotify and March gained 0.7% and 4.2%, respectively.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":91,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883727747,"gmtCreate":1631275937489,"gmtModify":1631888526803,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/883727747","repostId":"2166532071","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":47,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":830819165,"gmtCreate":1629042747157,"gmtModify":1631892507451,"author":{"id":"3575936957429593","authorId":"3575936957429593","name":"alvernsim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2fe3d62fe9cea4c6c6e6417f045322d","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575936957429593","authorIdStr":"3575936957429593"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/830819165","repostId":"1127633167","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127633167","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1628997765,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1127633167?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-15 11:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 10 Standout Stocks Could Be the Next Amazon","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127633167","media":"Barrons","summary":"One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors loo","content":"<p>One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors looking for the next Amazon.com, Costco Wholesale, Nike, or Visa seek to identify companies capable of generating double-digit compound growth in revenue and earnings—preferably both—for years to come.</p>\n<p>The idea is that stock prices should compound in line with revenue and profits, enabling investors to generate high returns over a holding period of five to 10 years.

But the shares, around $185, are off nearly 30% after the company recently cut 2021 financial guidance, citing Covid-related staffing and cost issues, mostly in acquired hospice operations. The 2021 earnings estimate is now $6.13 a share, down from nearly $7. The stock trades for 30 times projected 2021 profits. Cole says that the company remains capable of generating 10% annual gains in earnings per share.</p>\n<p>Amyris(AMRS) is a leader in synthetic biology. It fans say its opportunity is to supplant, in an eco-friendly way, a range of products now made from petrochemicals, animals, and plants.</p>\n<p>Using genetically re-engineered yeast and sugar cane, Amyris produces such things as squalane, a high-end moisturizer formerly made from shark livers; vanillin, the flavoring for vanilla; and a no-calorie sweetener normally derived from plants. The stock trades around $13.</p>\n<p><i>Barron’s</i>&nbsp;wrote&nbsp;favorably on the company in July. Amyris sees sales reaching $2 billion by 2025, up from an estimated $400 million this year, driven by its consumer brands.</p>\n<p>“The world needs clean chemistry, and Amyris is the point on the spear to create it,” says Randy Baron, a portfolio manager at Pinnacle Associates, which owns Amyris shares. He thinks they could hit $75 by the end of 2022.</p>\n<p>Booz Allen Hamilton Holding(BAH) is an important consultant to the Defense Department and other agencies. The U.S. government accounted for 97% of its revenue in its latest fiscal year. Booz Allen has built robust ties to the government over the years by providing an array of services, like cybersecurity. Its stock trades around $81, for a 1.8% yield.</p>\n<p>“It has built a strong, partnership-like culture and has a long record of steady growth,” says Josh Spencer, manager of the T. Rowe Price New Horizons fund. He sees Booz Allen as capable of generating 9% to 10% annual growth in revenue and yearly gains of 15% to 16% in earnings, in line with its historical performance. The stock is off 20% from its peak of $100, amid concerns about more restrained military spending. Spencer sees the pullback as a buying opportunity, with the stock valued at less than 20 times earnings.</p>\n<p>J.B. Hunt Transport Services(JBHT) is a leader in intermodal freight, which involves the fuel-efficient movement of trucks over rail lines. It has been one of the most successful trucking companies. Its stock has risen 30-fold over the past 20 years, to a recent $173. “It has an incredible franchise,” says Henry Ellenbogen, chief investment officer at Durable Capital Partners and a member of the&nbsp;Barron’s Roundtable.</p>\n<p>J.B. Hunt’s relationship with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad gives it a strong position in intermodal freight, he notes. J.B. Hunt also has a growing business taking over the trucking operations of smaller companies. And it is involved in digital freight brokerage—matching truckers with shipping customers.</p>\n<p>Ellenbogen says the stock is reasonable at 22 times estimated 2022 profits, given a mid-teens annual growth outlook for earnings.</p>\n<p>Marriott Vacations Worldwide(VAC) is one of the top companies in the timeshare industry. It has 700,000 owners, a resilient business model with significant revenue from fees, and more exposure than its peers to luxury properties in places including Hawaii and Orlando, Fla.</p>\n<p>“It has the best customer base, with the highest spending and an impeccable balance sheet,” says David Baron, a manager of the Baron Focused Growth fund. Marriott Vacations, whose shares recently were trading around $145, should reinstate its dividend later this year, he adds.</p>\n<p>The shares, Baron argues, are cheap at a 11% free-cash-flow yield, based on 2022 estimates. He says that the stock, little changed since 2018, could produce 20% annual returns for shareholders in the coming years.</p>\n<p>SiteOne Landscape Supply(SITE) is the country’s top supplier of landscaping products, with ample opportunity to expand, given that it has just a 13% market share in a highly fragmented industry.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>“It’s growing organically and has lots of acquisition opportunities,” says Columbia’s Cole, who considers the company to be capable of 10% to 15% annual revenue growth.</p>\n<p>The stock, around $197, has a rich valuation, trading for 43 times projected 2022 earnings of $4.54 a share.</p>\n<p>Staar Surgical(STAA) has developed an implantable lens to correct myopia (nearsightedness). That addresses a potentially huge market, given the rising global incidence of that vision problem. The company expects the lens, which has been available in Europe and Asia for at least five years, to be on the U.S. market in the fourth quarter, pending Food and Drug Administration approval.</p>\n<p>“It could do substantial volumes,’’ says Doug Brodie, a global manager at Baillie Gifford. “It’s early in a journey and is largely devoid of competition.”</p>\n<p>Lenses for both eyes can be implanted in less than an hour, and they don’t involve the removal of the natural lenses. The wholesale cost in the U.S. could be around $1,000 per lens.</p>\n<p>At a recent $138, Staar shares are richly valued at more than 20 times projected 2022 sales and 140 times estimated 2022 earnings. But the market opportunity is enormous: Some five billion people worldwide could have myopia by 2050.</p>\n<p>Stitch Fix(SFIX) has developed a subscription service for clothing, shoes, and other accessories and boasts over four million customers.</p>\n<p>“This could be the Nordstrom of the future,” says Mario Cibelli, chief investment officer at Marathon Partners Equity Management, a Stitch Fix holder. “This a potentially huge market and nobody is addressing it in the same way.” Using a staff of 6,000 personal stylists and lots of data, Stitch Fix seeks to identify subscriber tastes to generate high satisfaction and limit returns on packages sent at intervals and determined by subscribers.</p>\n<p>Its shares, around $44, are down 60% from their level earlier in the year, on investors’ worries about potential churn and the business’s ultimate profitability.</p>\n<p>Yet Cibelli sees revenue growth of 20%-plus annually, opportunities outside its current U.S. and U.K. markets, and a potentially very profitable business in two to three years.</p>\n<p>Trex(TREX) is the top producer of a high-end wood alternative for decks that comes from 95% recycled material, making it an eco-friendly housing play. The shares, at $105, trade for 43 times projected 2022 earnings.</p>\n<p>T. Rowe Price’s Spencer views Trex as worth the price, based on his view that it can generate sustainable annual revenue growth of 15% to 20%. Earnings are expected to climb by about 20% in 2022 and at a similar pace in the following years. “If you roll the clock forward three years, it doesn’t look as expensive,” he says.</p>\n<p>Upwork(UPWK), an online marketplace for freelance workers, is favored by Baillie Gifford’s Brodie, who says it offers a play on the greater acceptance of freelancers by businesses.</p>\n<p>The shares, recently around $44, aren’t cheap. Upwork is valued at $5.7 billion, or more than 10 times this year’s projected sales of nearly $500 million. It operates at a slight loss.</p>\n<p>The investment case is about rapid sales growth leading to ample earnings. Sales are expected to rise by 30%-plus this year and 25% for 2022.</p>\n<p>“Freelancers are more accepted by small to midsize business, but they’ve been frowned on by the HR departments at large businesses,” Brodie says. Upwork aims to change that perception by vetting its freelancers and by offering thousands of skill sets. “Upwork could become a trusted partner for an increasing number of enterprise-grade partners,” he says.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>These 10 Standout Stocks Could Be the Next Amazon</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\">\nThese 10 Standout Stocks Could Be the Next Amazon\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-15 11:22 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.barrons.com/articles/stocks-potential-compounder-growth-51628888840?mod=hp_LEADSUPP_2><strong>Barrons</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors looking for the next Amazon.com, Costco Wholesale, Nike, or Visa seek to identify companies capable of ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.barrons.com/articles/stocks-potential-compounder-growth-51628888840?mod=hp_LEADSUPP_2\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"STAA":"STAAR Surgical Company","SFIX":"Stitch Fix Inc.","TREX":"Trex Co Inc","JBHT":"JB Hunt运输服务","VAC":"万豪度假环球","AMED":"阿米斯医疗","AMRS":"阿米瑞斯","SITE":"SiteOne Landscape Supply, Inc.","BAH":"博思艾伦咨询公司","UPWK":"Upwork Inc."},"source_url":"https://www.barrons.com/articles/stocks-potential-compounder-growth-51628888840?mod=hp_LEADSUPP_2","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1127633167","content_text":"One of the most popular buzzwords in investing today is “compounders.” Growth-oriented investors looking for the next Amazon.com, Costco Wholesale, Nike, or Visa seek to identify companies capable of generating double-digit compound growth in revenue and earnings—preferably both—for years to come.\nThe idea is that stock prices should compound in line with revenue and profits, enabling investors to generate high returns over a holding period of five to 10 years.

The 2021 earnings estimate is now $6.13 a share, down from nearly $7. The stock trades for 30 times projected 2021 profits. Cole says that the company remains capable of generating 10% annual gains in earnings per share.\nAmyris(AMRS) is a leader in synthetic biology. It fans say its opportunity is to supplant, in an eco-friendly way, a range of products now made from petrochemicals, animals, and plants.\nUsing genetically re-engineered yeast and sugar cane, Amyris produces such things as squalane, a high-end moisturizer formerly made from shark livers; vanillin, the flavoring for vanilla; and a no-calorie sweetener normally derived from plants. The stock trades around $13.\nBarron’s wrote favorably on the company in July. Amyris sees sales reaching $2 billion by 2025, up from an estimated $400 million this year, driven by its consumer brands.\n“The world needs clean chemistry, and Amyris is the point on the spear to create it,” says Randy Baron, a portfolio manager at Pinnacle Associates, which owns Amyris shares. He thinks they could hit $75 by the end of 2022.\nBooz Allen Hamilton Holding(BAH) is an important consultant to the Defense Department and other agencies. The U.S. government accounted for 97% of its revenue in its latest fiscal year. Booz Allen has built robust ties to the government over the years by providing an array of services, like cybersecurity. Its stock trades around $81, for a 1.8% yield.\n“It has built a strong, partnership-like culture and has a long record of steady growth,” says Josh Spencer, manager of the T. Rowe Price New Horizons fund. He sees Booz Allen as capable of generating 9% to 10% annual growth in revenue and yearly gains of 15% to 16% in earnings, in line with its historical performance. The stock is off 20% from its peak of $100, amid concerns about more restrained military spending. Spencer sees the pullback as a buying opportunity, with the stock valued at less than 20 times earnings.\nJ.B. Hunt Transport Services(JBHT) is a leader in intermodal freight, which involves the fuel-efficient movement of trucks over rail lines. It has been one of the most successful trucking companies. Its stock has risen 30-fold over the past 20 years, to a recent $173. “It has an incredible franchise,” says Henry Ellenbogen, chief investment officer at Durable Capital Partners and a member of the Barron’s Roundtable.\nJ.B. Hunt’s relationship with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad gives it a strong position in intermodal freight, he notes. J.B. Hunt also has a growing business taking over the trucking operations of smaller companies. And it is involved in digital freight brokerage—matching truckers with shipping customers.\nEllenbogen says the stock is reasonable at 22 times estimated 2022 profits, given a mid-teens annual growth outlook for earnings.\nMarriott Vacations Worldwide(VAC) is one of the top companies in the timeshare industry. It has 700,000 owners, a resilient business model with significant revenue from fees, and more exposure than its peers to luxury properties in places including Hawaii and Orlando, Fla.\n“It has the best customer base, with the highest spending and an impeccable balance sheet,” says David Baron, a manager of the Baron Focused Growth fund. Marriott Vacations, whose shares recently were trading around $145, should reinstate its dividend later this year, he adds.\nThe shares, Baron argues, are cheap at a 11% free-cash-flow yield, based on 2022 estimates. He says that the stock, little changed since 2018, could produce 20% annual returns for shareholders in the coming years.\nSiteOne Landscape Supply(SITE) is the country’s top supplier of landscaping products, with ample opportunity to expand, given that it has just a 13% market share in a highly fragmented industry.\n\n“It’s growing organically and has lots of acquisition opportunities,” says Columbia’s Cole, who considers the company to be capable of 10% to 15% annual revenue growth.\nThe stock, around $197, has a rich valuation, trading for 43 times projected 2022 earnings of $4.54 a share.\nStaar Surgical(STAA) has developed an implantable lens to correct myopia (nearsightedness). That addresses a potentially huge market, given the rising global incidence of that vision problem. The company expects the lens, which has been available in Europe and Asia for at least five years, to be on the U.S. market in the fourth quarter, pending Food and Drug Administration approval.\n“It could do substantial volumes,’’ says Doug Brodie, a global manager at Baillie Gifford. “It’s early in a journey and is largely devoid of competition.”\nLenses for both eyes can be implanted in less than an hour, and they don’t involve the removal of the natural lenses. The wholesale cost in the U.S. could be around $1,000 per lens.\nAt a recent $138, Staar shares are richly valued at more than 20 times projected 2022 sales and 140 times estimated 2022 earnings. But the market opportunity is enormous: Some five billion people worldwide could have myopia by 2050.\nStitch Fix(SFIX) has developed a subscription service for clothing, shoes, and other accessories and boasts over four million customers.\n“This could be the Nordstrom of the future,” says Mario Cibelli, chief investment officer at Marathon Partners Equity Management, a Stitch Fix holder. “This a potentially huge market and nobody is addressing it in the same way.” Using a staff of 6,000 personal stylists and lots of data, Stitch Fix seeks to identify subscriber tastes to generate high satisfaction and limit returns on packages sent at intervals and determined by subscribers.\nIts shares, around $44, are down 60% from their level earlier in the year, on investors’ worries about potential churn and the business’s ultimate profitability.\nYet Cibelli sees revenue growth of 20%-plus annually, opportunities outside its current U.S. and U.K. markets, and a potentially very profitable business in two to three years.\nTrex(TREX) is the top producer of a high-end wood alternative for decks that comes from 95% recycled material, making it an eco-friendly housing play. The shares, at $105, trade for 43 times projected 2022 earnings.\nT. Rowe Price’s Spencer views Trex as worth the price, based on his view that it can generate sustainable annual revenue growth of 15% to 20%. Earnings are expected to climb by about 20% in 2022 and at a similar pace in the following years. “If you roll the clock forward three years, it doesn’t look as expensive,” he says.\nUpwork(UPWK), an online marketplace for freelance workers, is favored by Baillie Gifford’s Brodie, who says it offers a play on the greater acceptance of freelancers by businesses.\nThe shares, recently around $44, aren’t cheap. Upwork is valued at $5.7 billion, or more than 10 times this year’s projected sales of nearly $500 million. It operates at a slight loss.\nThe investment case is about rapid sales growth leading to ample earnings. Sales are expected to rise by 30%-plus this year and 25% for 2022.\n“Freelancers are more accepted by small to midsize business, but they’ve been frowned on by the HR departments at large businesses,” Brodie says. Upwork aims to change that perception by vetting its freelancers and by offering thousands of skill sets. “Upwork could become a trusted partner for an increasing number of enterprise-grade partners,” he says.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":119,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
