Travel the world to capture moments and beautiful photos. Sony Alpha User/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Introduction</b></p>\n<p>My thesis is that the future is bright for Spotify (SPOT) as paid subscribers, gross margins and ad revenue continue with prodigious growth. CEO Daniel Ek and the rest of Spotify have ardor to be a huge part of audio as the world keeps moving towards streaming and podcasts.</p>\n<p>In the 3Q21 earnings&nbsp;call, CEO Ek talked about Spotify’s opportunities as the world shifts away from terrestrial radio:</p>\n<blockquote>\n A good reminder,\n <b>Linear Radio still has a 46% share of audio listening</b>&nbsp;in the U.S. alone, this despite consumption shifting steadily away from it. In this year,\n <b>more than 60% of all audio ads spending will go to traditional radio</b>. I think this clearly shows that we have plenty of room to grow both in listening time and in our effective monetization.\n</blockquote>\n<p>At the time of this writing the exchange rate is about $1.16 per €1.</p>\n<p><b>Paid Subscribers Keep Rising</b></p>\n<p>It’s a no-brainer for new subscribers to continue signing up as streaming music is one of the cheapest forms of entertainment available per the June 2021 Music is Universal&nbsp;presentation&nbsp;by Pershing Square:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0fb02c3b21b98d3c77807c1dd039f633\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"571\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image Source: June 2021 Music is Universal presentation by Pershing Square</span></p>\n<p>Size begets size as new streaming customers like to go with the market leader. There is no one close to Spotify in terms of paid subscribers in the audio landscape. Apple (AAPL) might be a distant number two; they are well behind and they stopped disclosing their numbers some time ago. Also, Apple’s worldwide smartphone penetration isn’t nearly as high as their U.S. level.</p>\n<p>Years ago Barry McCarthy was the CFO at Netflix (NFLX) and he learned the importance of being the earlier leader in the race to acquire paid subscribers. He left Netflix with the right structure and took that knowledge to Spotify where he served as CFO, laying down a solid foundation before handing the reins to current CFO, Paul Vogel. Spotify is catching up with Netflix with respect to paid subscribers but both companies are still growing nicely which is partially due to the contributions made by former CFO McCarthy. Back in 2015, Spotify only had 37% as many subscribers as Netflix but through 3Q21 they were up to 81%. I put together a chart to help visualize the growth for both companies:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d4899bdb38637d477621ecfa1d6c920a\" tg-width=\"784\" tg-height=\"440\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image Source: Author’s spreadsheet</span></p>\n<p><b>The Gross Margin Keeps Improving</b></p>\n<p>Per the 3Q21&nbsp;financial statements, Spotify’s 3Q21 gross margin was 26.7% which is a nice improvement from the 3Q20 gross margin of 24.8% below:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa7b0f76e8b23068fd5054d67d0568a6\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"612\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image Source: 3Q21 financial statements</span></p>\n<p>The 3Q21&nbsp;press release&nbsp;talks about this improvement:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Gross Margin finished at 26.7% in Q3, above the top end of our guidance range and reflecting nearly 200 bps of Y/Y expansion. The Gross Margin improvement reflected a favorable revenue mix shift towards podcasts, marketplace activity, improved music advertising operating leverage, and Other Cost of Revenue efficiencies (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs), which were partially offset by higher non-music and other content costs and publishing rate increases. Premium Gross Margin was 29.1% in Q3, up 182 bps Y/Y, and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 10.5% in Q3, up 993 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.\n</blockquote>\n<p>These days Netflix enjoys a gross margin north of 40% but it was down at 27.2% [$983.4 million/$3,609.3 million] for 2012 per the&nbsp;10-K&nbsp;from that year. Per the Spotify 3Q21&nbsp;financial statements, their 9M21 gross margin is 26.9% [€1,879 million/€ 6,979 million] so they’re almost up to the 2012 level at Netflix. Spotify has come a long way from their gross margin of 11.6% for 2015 in their S-1&nbsp;filing&nbsp;and they aim to keep going up to a level of 30% to 40%. CFO Paul Vogel answered a question about getting to the 40% level at the September 2021 Bank of America&nbsp;Conference. He noted that podcasts are a drag on gross margins right now but said that will flip as the business matures and they have more of a fixed cost structure than a variable cost structure:</p>\n<blockquote>\n One is, we think advertising is going to continue to grow, continue to be a bigger part of our business. Right now, it’s 10% of our business. We think there’s opportunity to improve the ad margins on the music side alone, because right now they’re lower than their premium side. We think there’s an opportunity there. And then you delve into the podcasting side where, as you said,\n <b>as more and more of our business can move over to a fixed cost nature versus variable costs nature, we think there’s a big opportunity to grow gross margin</b>, on top of the podcasting business, and we sort of modeled that over a long period of time. And even though&nbsp;\n <b>right now, the podcast business is actually a drag on gross margins</b>. We think over time, that will flip and will be a benefit to gross margins, if not a significant benefit to the gross margin.\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Ad Dollars Are Increasing</b></p>\n<p>Quarterly ad revenue grew 75% year-over-year:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/813c508a4233806d0b0c40878e880126\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"405\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image Source: 3Q21 financial statements</span></p>\n<p>Podcasts are a key part of ad revenue and the progress in this area was illustrated in the 3Q21 earnings call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n We started our journey&nbsp;\n <b>3 years ago in podcasting with a catalog of about 185,000 podcasts</b>. And we were really nowhere compared to the largest players in the industry.\n <b>Today, we have 3.2 million podcasts</b>on the platform, a growth rate of over 1,500%. But despite the fact that we're still a relatively new entrant, previous data indicated we have become the top platform for podcast consumption, in 60-plus countries. And now, according to Edison research and our own internal sources, we recently became&nbsp;\n <b>the number one podcast platform U.S. listeners use the most</b>.\n</blockquote>\n<p>In the 3Q21 earnings call, it was noted that advertising revenues as a percentage of total revenues hit 13%. A question was asked by Rich Greenfield about the mix of revenues in five years and that mix shift impacting margins. CEO Daniel Ek answered by saying advertising should eventually be at least 20% of revenues and maybe even more than 40% of revenues in 5 to 10 years:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Maybe I'll talk about the size of this and Paul can chime in on the impact on margins. I'm really excited about ads. I think we have had a tremendous quarter with 75% growth year-over-year.\n <b>But this is just the beginning, as I stated in my opening remarks. Long term, I believe at the very least, this should be 20% of our revenues. But it might possibly be a lot more than that 30%, 40% even over the next 5 to 10 years.</b>We're very excited about this being the second big revenue driver for Spotify and are obviously investing behind that both in product and platform improvements, but also as you may have read in hiring staff across the world that helps service these advertisers.\n</blockquote>\n<p>CFO Vogel chimed in on the mix of revenues question with some answers as well, noting that margins were up almost 1,000 basis points on the ad side:</p>\n<blockquote>\n And then from advertising generals, as Daniel said, it was up 75% in the quarter. We saw really nice, healthy gains on the music side. It was up significantly on the advertising side. And then podcasts advertising growth was in the triple digits. So we're seeing it across the board. What's really interesting is that the increased inventory is bringing increased demand. The demand is really high across all of our products. Podcasting is helping significantly on that. And then from a margin standpoint, obviously, the podcasting margin is helpful over time. We think having a fixed cost nature of the podcasting business and being able to grow that advertising will help margins. But additionally, just bringing more advertising into the platform, we're seeing the free music margins move up as well as you guys are aware, our free music margins are below our premium music margin. So to the extent that we can drive incremental advertising across not just podcasting, but music in general, that will help margins as well.\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<p>In my March&nbsp;article, I thought Spotify was worth about $55 billion. Some of the numbers coming in since that time have been even better than expected. Also, management has increased the bottom end of the range for 4Q21 total revenue and gross margin. I now think Spotify is worth close to $60 billion. Today’s market cap is $58 billion based on the November 2nd share price of $298.08 and the 194,614,910 share count as of September 30, 2021 in the 2Q21 6-K&nbsp;filing. The enterprise value is fairly close to the market cap and I believe the stock is reasonably priced for the long run.</p>","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>Spotify Is Looking Better Than Ever</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\">\nSpotify Is Looking Better Than Ever\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-04 20:42 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4465297-spotify-stock-paid-subscriber-growth-back-on-track><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nPaid subscriber growth is back on track.\nPodcasts shift part of the business from a variable cost structure to a fixed cost structure.\nAd revenue is up 75% year-over-year!\n\nAvid Photographer....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4465297-spotify-stock-paid-subscriber-growth-back-on-track\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPOT":"Spotify Technology S.A."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4465297-spotify-stock-paid-subscriber-growth-back-on-track","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1191996183","content_text":"Summary\n\nPaid subscriber growth is back on track.\nPodcasts shift part of the business from a variable cost structure to a fixed cost structure.\nAd revenue is up 75% year-over-year!\n\nAvid Photographer. Travel the world to capture moments and beautiful photos. Sony Alpha User/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nIntroduction\nMy thesis is that the future is bright for Spotify (SPOT) as paid subscribers, gross margins and ad revenue continue with prodigious growth. CEO Daniel Ek and the rest of Spotify have ardor to be a huge part of audio as the world keeps moving towards streaming and podcasts.\nIn the 3Q21 earnings call, CEO Ek talked about Spotify’s opportunities as the world shifts away from terrestrial radio:\n\n A good reminder,\n Linear Radio still has a 46% share of audio listening in the U.S. alone, this despite consumption shifting steadily away from it. In this year,\n more than 60% of all audio ads spending will go to traditional radio. I think this clearly shows that we have plenty of room to grow both in listening time and in our effective monetization.\n\nAt the time of this writing the exchange rate is about $1.16 per €1.\nPaid Subscribers Keep Rising\nIt’s a no-brainer for new subscribers to continue signing up as streaming music is one of the cheapest forms of entertainment available per the June 2021 Music is Universal presentation by Pershing Square:\nImage Source: June 2021 Music is Universal presentation by Pershing Square\nSize begets size as new streaming customers like to go with the market leader. There is no one close to Spotify in terms of paid subscribers in the audio landscape. Apple (AAPL) might be a distant number two; they are well behind and they stopped disclosing their numbers some time ago. Also, Apple’s worldwide smartphone penetration isn’t nearly as high as their U.S. level.\nYears ago Barry McCarthy was the CFO at Netflix (NFLX) and he learned the importance of being the earlier leader in the race to acquire paid subscribers. He left Netflix with the right structure and took that knowledge to Spotify where he served as CFO, laying down a solid foundation before handing the reins to current CFO, Paul Vogel. Spotify is catching up with Netflix with respect to paid subscribers but both companies are still growing nicely which is partially due to the contributions made by former CFO McCarthy. Back in 2015, Spotify only had 37% as many subscribers as Netflix but through 3Q21 they were up to 81%. I put together a chart to help visualize the growth for both companies:\nImage Source: Author’s spreadsheet\nThe Gross Margin Keeps Improving\nPer the 3Q21 financial statements, Spotify’s 3Q21 gross margin was 26.7% which is a nice improvement from the 3Q20 gross margin of 24.8% below:\nImage Source: 3Q21 financial statements\nThe 3Q21 press release talks about this improvement:\n\n Gross Margin finished at 26.7% in Q3, above the top end of our guidance range and reflecting nearly 200 bps of Y/Y expansion. The Gross Margin improvement reflected a favorable revenue mix shift towards podcasts, marketplace activity, improved music advertising operating leverage, and Other Cost of Revenue efficiencies (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs), which were partially offset by higher non-music and other content costs and publishing rate increases. Premium Gross Margin was 29.1% in Q3, up 182 bps Y/Y, and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 10.5% in Q3, up 993 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.\n\nThese days Netflix enjoys a gross margin north of 40% but it was down at 27.2% [$983.4 million/$3,609.3 million] for 2012 per the 10-K from that year. Per the Spotify 3Q21 financial statements, their 9M21 gross margin is 26.9% [€1,879 million/€ 6,979 million] so they’re almost up to the 2012 level at Netflix. Spotify has come a long way from their gross margin of 11.6% for 2015 in their S-1 filing and they aim to keep going up to a level of 30% to 40%. CFO Paul Vogel answered a question about getting to the 40% level at the September 2021 Bank of America Conference. He noted that podcasts are a drag on gross margins right now but said that will flip as the business matures and they have more of a fixed cost structure than a variable cost structure:\n\n One is, we think advertising is going to continue to grow, continue to be a bigger part of our business. Right now, it’s 10% of our business. We think there’s opportunity to improve the ad margins on the music side alone, because right now they’re lower than their premium side. We think there’s an opportunity there. And then you delve into the podcasting side where, as you said,\n as more and more of our business can move over to a fixed cost nature versus variable costs nature, we think there’s a big opportunity to grow gross margin, on top of the podcasting business, and we sort of modeled that over a long period of time. And even though \n right now, the podcast business is actually a drag on gross margins. We think over time, that will flip and will be a benefit to gross margins, if not a significant benefit to the gross margin.\n\nAd Dollars Are Increasing\nQuarterly ad revenue grew 75% year-over-year:\nImage Source: 3Q21 financial statements\nPodcasts are a key part of ad revenue and the progress in this area was illustrated in the 3Q21 earnings call:\n\n We started our journey \n 3 years ago in podcasting with a catalog of about 185,000 podcasts. And we were really nowhere compared to the largest players in the industry.\n Today, we have 3.2 million podcastson the platform, a growth rate of over 1,500%. But despite the fact that we're still a relatively new entrant, previous data indicated we have become the top platform for podcast consumption, in 60-plus countries. And now, according to Edison research and our own internal sources, we recently became \n the number one podcast platform U.S. listeners use the most.\n\nIn the 3Q21 earnings call, it was noted that advertising revenues as a percentage of total revenues hit 13%. A question was asked by Rich Greenfield about the mix of revenues in five years and that mix shift impacting margins. CEO Daniel Ek answered by saying advertising should eventually be at least 20% of revenues and maybe even more than 40% of revenues in 5 to 10 years:\n\n Maybe I'll talk about the size of this and Paul can chime in on the impact on margins. I'm really excited about ads. I think we have had a tremendous quarter with 75% growth year-over-year.\n But this is just the beginning, as I stated in my opening remarks. Long term, I believe at the very least, this should be 20% of our revenues. But it might possibly be a lot more than that 30%, 40% even over the next 5 to 10 years.We're very excited about this being the second big revenue driver for Spotify and are obviously investing behind that both in product and platform improvements, but also as you may have read in hiring staff across the world that helps service these advertisers.\n\nCFO Vogel chimed in on the mix of revenues question with some answers as well, noting that margins were up almost 1,000 basis points on the ad side:\n\n And then from advertising generals, as Daniel said, it was up 75% in the quarter. We saw really nice, healthy gains on the music side. It was up significantly on the advertising side. And then podcasts advertising growth was in the triple digits. So we're seeing it across the board. What's really interesting is that the increased inventory is bringing increased demand. The demand is really high across all of our products. Podcasting is helping significantly on that. And then from a margin standpoint, obviously, the podcasting margin is helpful over time. We think having a fixed cost nature of the podcasting business and being able to grow that advertising will help margins. But additionally, just bringing more advertising into the platform, we're seeing the free music margins move up as well as you guys are aware, our free music margins are below our premium music margin. So to the extent that we can drive incremental advertising across not just podcasting, but music in general, that will help margins as well.\n\nValuation\nIn my March article, I thought Spotify was worth about $55 billion. Some of the numbers coming in since that time have been even better than expected. Also, management has increased the bottom end of the range for 4Q21 total revenue and gross margin. I now think Spotify is worth close to $60 billion. Today’s market cap is $58 billion based on the November 2nd share price of $298.08 and the 194,614,910 share count as of September 30, 2021 in the 2Q21 6-K filing. The enterprise value is fairly close to the market cap and I believe the stock is reasonably priced for the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1060,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":848766494,"gmtCreate":1636030784367,"gmtModify":1636030784918,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"OK","listText":"OK","text":"OK","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/848766494","repostId":"1158417116","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158417116","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":1636027483,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1158417116?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-04 20:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Thursday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158417116","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures were at record highs on Thursday, propped up by a slew of stellar earnings reports and as investors shrugged off the Federal Reserve's first steps to begin paring its pandemic-era support.At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 17 points, or 0.05%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 5.25 points, or 0.11%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 60.5 points, or 0.38%.Tesla Inc added 1.9% and was set for a record open, while other mega-cap technology titans Microsoft Corp, Google-owner A","content":"<p>The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq futures were at record highs on Thursday, propped up by a slew of stellar earnings reports and as investors shrugged off the Federal Reserve's first steps to begin paring its pandemic-era support.</p>\n<p>At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 17 points, or 0.05%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were up 5.25 points, or 0.11%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 60.5 points, or 0.38%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/34b82a3a6bcc1b43dfa28ebacdf9efcb\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Tesla Inc&nbsp;added 1.9% and was set for a record open, while other mega-cap technology titans Microsoft Corp, Google-owner Alphabet Inc, Amazon.com&nbsp;and Meta Platforms&nbsp;also edged higher.</p>\n<p>The U.S. unemployment picture improved again last week, with initial filings for unemployment insurance falling to another pandemic-era low.First-time claims dropped to 269,000 for the week ended Oct. 30, down 14,000 from the previous period and better than the Dow Jones estimate for 275,000, the Labor Department reported Thursday.</p>\n<p>Continuing state jobless claims fall 134,000 to 2.1million;U.S. productivity sinks 5% in third quarter;U.S. trade gap widens to record $80.9 billion in September from revised $72.8 billion in prior month;U.S. output rises 1.7% in third quarter, hours worked jump 7%;U.S. unit-labor costs surge 8.3% in the third quarter.</p>\n<p><b>Stocks making the biggest moves premarket: </b></p>\n<p><b>Moderna(MRNA)</b> – Moderna tumbled 11.5% in premarket action, following quarterly shortfalls in both earnings and revenue as well as a cut in the drug maker’s full-year earnings outlook.

She has used at least five more since to buy face cream, T-shirts and birthday gifts.</p>\n<p>Installment plans are back&nbsp;in style.PayPal Holdings&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;last week&nbsp;said it was buying Japanese installment payment startup&nbsp;Paidy Inc., following Square Inc.’s&nbsp;$29 billion deal&nbsp;for&nbsp;Afterpay&nbsp;Ltd.Macy’s&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Bed Bath &amp; Beyond&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;have added the option at checkout over the past year. Even&nbsp;Amazon.com&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;is doing it.</p>\n<p>One reason: shoppers like Ms. Luedtke who don’t qualify for credit cards. Buy-now-pay-later companies say they rely less on—and in some cases bypass altogether—traditional credit scores and reports. Doing so allows them to approve more consumers. Shoppers gain the ability to buy things even without cash on hand—translating to higher sales for retailers.</p>\n<p>Afterpay said it expects the company’s U.S. merchants will see an $8.2 billion increase in sales this year because of payment plans.Affirm Holdings&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;last year said purchases made with its payment plans were 85% larger, on average.</p>\n<p>Shoppers spend more at Macy’s when they use installment plans offered through Klarna Bank AB, Macy’s CEO Jeff Gennette said on a recent earnings call. Klarna also is helping the retailer attract younger customers, he said.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40620bab35c446816da175fb2334c05e\" tg-width=\"435\" tg-height=\"562\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>“The value that most retailers see in buy now, pay later is customer acquisition,” said David Sykes, Klarna’s North America head.</p>\n<p>Ms. Luedtke, 26, has credit cards now but still prefers installment plans. Just last month, she used them to buy about $40 of Peter Thomas Roth skin-care products and $65 in clothing from Shein.</p>\n<p>“It definitely influences how much more I buy or would spend,” she said. “It’s easier to pay $200 over so many weeks compared to $200 right now.”</p>\n<p>Buy now, pay later is a new twist on an old idea. Big retailers have for decades offered installment plans for big-ticket items like washing machines. Today, these plans come in a variety of flavors. Afterpay offers payment plans that shoppers usually attach to their debit cards. Others, like Affirm, also facilitate new loans.</p>\n<p>Interest rates and other terms vary by payment-plan provider.

She has used at least five more since to buy face cream, T-shirts and birthday gifts.\nInstallment plans are back in style.PayPal Holdings Inc. last week said it was buying Japanese installment payment startup Paidy Inc., following Square Inc.’s $29 billion deal for Afterpay Ltd.Macy’s Inc. and Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. have added the option at checkout over the past year. Even Amazon.com Inc. is doing it.\nOne reason: shoppers like Ms. Luedtke who don’t qualify for credit cards. Buy-now-pay-later companies say they rely less on—and in some cases bypass altogether—traditional credit scores and reports. Doing so allows them to approve more consumers. Shoppers gain the ability to buy things even without cash on hand—translating to higher sales for retailers.\nAfterpay said it expects the company’s U.S. merchants will see an $8.2 billion increase in sales this year because of payment plans.Affirm Holdings Inc. last year said purchases made with its payment plans were 85% larger, on average.\nShoppers spend more at Macy’s when they use installment plans offered through Klarna Bank AB, Macy’s CEO Jeff Gennette said on a recent earnings call. Klarna also is helping the retailer attract younger customers, he said.\n\n“The value that most retailers see in buy now, pay later is customer acquisition,” said David Sykes, Klarna’s North America head.\nMs. Luedtke, 26, has credit cards now but still prefers installment plans. Just last month, she used them to buy about $40 of Peter Thomas Roth skin-care products and $65 in clothing from Shein.\n“It definitely influences how much more I buy or would spend,” she said. “It’s easier to pay $200 over so many weeks compared to $200 right now.”\nBuy now, pay later is a new twist on an old idea. Big retailers have for decades offered installment plans for big-ticket items like washing machines. Today, these plans come in a variety of flavors. Afterpay offers payment plans that shoppers usually attach to their debit cards. Others, like Affirm, also facilitate new loans.\nInterest rates and other terms vary by payment-plan provider. Affirm interest rates range from 0% to 30%, with some 43% of its transactions during its last fiscal year not charging interest at all. The company doesn’t charge late fees. Afterpay doesn’t charge interest but does collect late fees.\n\nMerchants take no credit risk with these plans, but the fees they incur can be higher than on credit-card purchases—often between 3% and 5% of the purchase price, according to people familiar with the matter.\nBuy-now-pay-later companies say they can approve more customers than banks, including people who have thin or no borrowing history. Some 53 million adults in the U.S. lack traditional credit scores, according to FICO score creator Fair Isaac Corp.Installment plans are safer, they say, because they are often smaller than credit-card spending limits and approved on a per-transaction basis.\nAffirm said that it had a net charge-off rate of 1% in the quarter ended June 30, down from 2% a year earlier. Afterpay said it wrote off 0.6% of the total dollars it processed in payments during the company’s fiscal year ended June 30, up from 0.4% the year prior.\nWorking with a web of retailers, buy-now-pay-later companies can create self-contained payment ecosystems. They factor payment behavior into future underwriting decisions. Customers who pay late or not at all risk losing the installment option at other participating retailers.\n“Most merchants want a partner who has real advantage and real ability to underwrite,” said Affirm CEO Max Levchin. “These are not deeper approvals, but they are different approvals.”\nAffirm facilitates new loans among other payment plans.\nAmazon and Walmart Inc. are both working with Affirm. Both have said they want their financial partners to extend credit to more of their customers.\nAmazon is reviewing proposals, as it weighs whether to replace its longtime card issuer, JPMorgan Chase & Co. Amazon is looking for “commitments to underwrite competitively to widen the acquisition funnel,” the retailer said in a request for proposals reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.\nA desire to boost loan approvals was among the reasons Walmart in 2018 decided to end its decadeslong credit-card partnership with Synchrony Financial.(Capital One Financial Corp. now issues Walmart-branded credit cards.) The retailer made Affirm loans available to most of its customers the following year.\n“Our goal is financial inclusion for all,” said Julia Unger, Walmart’s vice president of financial services.\nSome banks now offer installment options on their credit cards.Citigroup Inc. saw a sevenfold increase in the dollar amount of credit-card purchases converted to installment loans in July, compared with the same month a year prior, said Gonzalo Luchetti, head of Citigroup’s U.S. consumer bank.\nSynchrony, the largest U.S. store-credit-card issuer, will launch a buy-now, pay-later plan in October.

Amazon Video and Kindle are also frequently cited as examples of reader apps.</p>\n<p>Spotify and Netflix once allowed users to pay for services in-app, but have since stopped that form of billing for new members amid a dispute with Apple over the hefty commission it charges. Downloading the Netflix app, for example, will allow you to sign in — but only if you have an existing account. The app otherwise tells you to \"join and come back\" once you have an account.</p>\n<p>Spotify did not immediately respond to a request from CNN Business for comment about the change. Netflix declined to comment.</p>\n<p>\"To ensure a safe and seamless user experience, the App Store's guidelines require developers to sell digital services and subscriptions using Apple's in-app payment system,\" Apple said, adding that it is allowing for the change \"because developers of reader apps do not offer in-app digital goods and services for purchase.\"</p>\n<p>The update will make it easier for some developers to bypass hefty charges imposed by Apple. The company's commissions go as high as 30% on some purchases made through its platform. Developers have said they have little choice but to comply, since Apple does not allow customers to download apps from any source other than the company's official store.</p>\n<p><b>'Divide and conquer'?</b></p>\n<p>The issue is at the heart of an EU antitrust investigation and a lawsuit brought against Apple by Fortnite-maker Epic Games.

Amazon Video and Kindle are also frequently cited as examples of reader apps.\nSpotify and Netflix once allowed users to pay for services in-app, but have since stopped that form of billing for new members amid a dispute with Apple over the hefty commission it charges. Downloading the Netflix app, for example, will allow you to sign in — but only if you have an existing account. The app otherwise tells you to \"join and come back\" once you have an account.\nSpotify did not immediately respond to a request from CNN Business for comment about the change. Netflix declined to comment.\n\"To ensure a safe and seamless user experience, the App Store's guidelines require developers to sell digital services and subscriptions using Apple's in-app payment system,\" Apple said, adding that it is allowing for the change \"because developers of reader apps do not offer in-app digital goods and services for purchase.\"\nThe update will make it easier for some developers to bypass hefty charges imposed by Apple. The company's commissions go as high as 30% on some purchases made through its platform. Developers have said they have little choice but to comply, since Apple does not allow customers to download apps from any source other than the company's official store.\n'Divide and conquer'?\nThe issue is at the heart of an EU antitrust investigation and a lawsuit brought against Apple by Fortnite-maker Epic Games. A verdict in the Fortnite case is due any day now. Epic CEO Tim Sweeney tweeted late Wednesday that Apple's \"special deal\" for some media apps amounted to the latest in a \"day-by-day recalculation of divide and conquer in hopes of getting away with most of their tying practices.\"\n\"Apple should open up iOS on the basis of hardware, stores, payments and services each competing individually and on their merits,\" he wrote.\nApple's announcement comes about a week after the company said it would relax some restrictions on how iPhone app makers could communicate with customers outside its App Store.\nThe company said last week that \"developers can use communications, such as email, to share information about payment methods outside of their iOS app,\" as long as users consent to receiving those emails and have the right to opt out.\nThe announcement also comes after South Korea passed a law that will allow developers to select which payment systems to use to process in-app purchases. That means they may be able to bypass hefty charges imposed by Apple and Google (GOOGL).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":171,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":817673715,"gmtCreate":1630961499137,"gmtModify":1631889356844,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/817673715","repostId":"1149410892","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149410892","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1630932652,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1149410892?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-06 20:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Reportedly Targeting $25,000 \"Model 2\" With No Steering Wheel By 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1149410892","media":"zerohedge","summary":"Apparently having not lied enough over the last few weeks with the revelation of the \"Tesla humanoid","content":"<p>Apparently having not lied enough over the last few weeks with the revelation of the \"Tesla humanoid robot\", Elon Musk may be seeking to one-up himself by reportedly telling his employees that Tesla is going to release a $25,000 car in 2023.</p>\n<p>Landing hours aftera reportthat Apple was seeking to have a mass market vehicle in production by 2024,&nbsp;<i>electrek</i>reportedthat Tesla is aiming to release the proposed $25,000 vehicle<i>without a steering wheel.</i></p>\n<p>Musk first announced the idea of a $25,000 vehicle at Tesla's battery day last year,<i>electrek</i>notes<i>.</i>Musk is hoping to be able to hit the $25,000 price point by leveraging a new battery cell and manufacturing process, which eventually could reduce the costs associated with a battery by over 50%.</p>\n<p>There has been little in the way of updates as to how that battery effort is moving along since then.</p>\n<p>Musk is also hoping the new vehicle, which has been unofficially dubbed the \"Model 2\", will be fully autonomous.&nbsp;“Do we want to have this car come with a steering wheel and pedals?” Musk reportedly asked his employees, suggesting the vehicle may not need them.</p>\n<p>Renderings show it as a compact style hatchback.</p>\n<p>Last year, Tesla disclosed plans to establish a research and development center in China to help build a \"Chinese style\" electric vehicle, which may wind up being similar, or the same, as the proposed \"Model 2\".</p>\n<p>Sources told&nbsp;<i>electrek</i>production could start as soon as 2023.

And beyond that, it will keep buying bonds under the regular asset-purchase program it launched in 2014 to help it meet its inflation target.</p>\n<p>The debate about tapering has never been about whether or not it will happen — it will, and it should, since central banks must shrink their massive balance sheets if they want to be able to meet future major crises with the type of efficiency they demonstrated when faced with the coronavirus pandemic. The immediate question is rather whether or not they should speed up the phasing out of quantitative easing because of the supposed return of inflation.</p>\n<p>A string of surveys of business managers released last week showed that inflation isn’t only due to oil prices catching up after historic lows last year, or some goods becoming more expensive because consumers are finally spending the money they were forced to save during the many lockdowns of the past 18 months.</p>\n<p>Cost inflation is now putting pressure on businesses, and they in turn have to choose whether they pass it on to their customers, or compress their margins by putting a priority on preserving market shares.</p>\n<p>A slow spread of inflation throughout the economy could then contribute to make it more pervasive, and push price expectations for the future even higher among both businesses and consumers, who might in turn seek higher wages.</p>\n<p>But is that a credible threat? Catherine Mann, the former Citibank chief economist who is now a member of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee, cautioned Monday that we should not look at the current inflation through the eyes of the traumatized generation that endured the double-digit inflation of the 1970s.</p>\n<p>Today is different, Mann explained, in part because wages and prices were more closely indexed to each other back then, and because labor markets and wages were more tightly interrelated.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, she added, companies today are more reluctant to pass on cost inflation to their customers and clients.</p>\n<p>But how long will businesses hold? Europe and the U.S. may diverge here.

And beyond that, it will keep buying bonds under the regular asset-purchase program it launched in 2014 to help it meet its inflation target.\nThe debate about tapering has never been about whether or not it will happen — it will, and it should, since central banks must shrink their massive balance sheets if they want to be able to meet future major crises with the type of efficiency they demonstrated when faced with the coronavirus pandemic. The immediate question is rather whether or not they should speed up the phasing out of quantitative easing because of the supposed return of inflation.\nA string of surveys of business managers released last week showed that inflation isn’t only due to oil prices catching up after historic lows last year, or some goods becoming more expensive because consumers are finally spending the money they were forced to save during the many lockdowns of the past 18 months.\nCost inflation is now putting pressure on businesses, and they in turn have to choose whether they pass it on to their customers, or compress their margins by putting a priority on preserving market shares.\nA slow spread of inflation throughout the economy could then contribute to make it more pervasive, and push price expectations for the future even higher among both businesses and consumers, who might in turn seek higher wages.\nBut is that a credible threat? Catherine Mann, the former Citibank chief economist who is now a member of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee, cautioned Monday that we should not look at the current inflation through the eyes of the traumatized generation that endured the double-digit inflation of the 1970s.\nToday is different, Mann explained, in part because wages and prices were more closely indexed to each other back then, and because labor markets and wages were more tightly interrelated.\nFurthermore, she added, companies today are more reluctant to pass on cost inflation to their customers and clients.\nBut how long will businesses hold? Europe and the U.S. may diverge here. According to IHS Markit ‘s most recent Purchasing Managers Index, the pace of inflation cost is at a record high in U.S. manufacturing, and “favorable demand conditions allowed finished goods prices to also rise at an unprecedented rate, as firms sought to protect their margins,” noted IHS chief economist Siân Jones last week. In the eurozone, on the other hand, IHS Markit noted “a slight cooling of input cost inflation.”\nTo “promote effectively the goal of maximum employment” is the first aim assigned to the Fed under its mandate from Congress, whereas the ECB’s sole remit is to achieve stable prices — which it has defined as an annual inflation of 2%. Both can find good reasons in the latest numbers or surveys to continue their bond purchases for now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":135,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":819925190,"gmtCreate":1630028902110,"gmtModify":1704954832973,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/819925190","repostId":"2162113720","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2162113720","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1630024696,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2162113720?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-27 08:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Marvell CEO says chip customers more concerned about supply than price","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162113720","media":"Reuters","summary":"Aug 26 (Reuters) - Marvell Technology Inc customers have broadly been willing to accept price increa","content":"<p>Aug 26 (Reuters) - Marvell Technology Inc&nbsp;customers have broadly been willing to accept price increases in exchange for steady chip supply, the company's chief executive said on Thursday as it reported better-than-expected quarterly sales.</p>\n<p>\"It really is a discussion and engagement with each of your customers,\" CEO Matt Murphy told Reuters in an interview. \"Ultimately, what they care about is capacity?

But now, he’s predicting an imminent fall. If he’s right, investors are sure to feel some pain in the coming months.</p>\n<p>And if some act fast, there could be plenty of opportunities as well.</p>\n<h2>What Citigroup is warning about</h2>\n<p>Levkovich has been warning about a correction for months now.</p>\n<p>“Hitting new highs, leading to new highs means markets never correct, which doesn’t quite make sense,” Levkovich told the hosts of CNBC’s Closing Bell in June.</p>\n<p>That same month, Levkovich wrote a note to Citi clients expressing that the company would be maintaining its cautious view over the short term.</p>\n<p>In the letter, he adamantly stuck to his year-end target of 4,000 for the S&amp;P 500, which was 5% below the index’s level at the time. At current levels, that target represents downside of up to 10%.</p>\n<p>And he’s not the only <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> worrying about the future. Just a few months before that note, Suze Orman was predicting a slide, too.</p>\n<p>But now, Levkovich is anticipating the correction could come as soon as September.</p>\n<h2>Levkovich is worried about four factors in particular</h2>\n<p>What’s got Levkovich so concerned about the market’s near future?</p>\n<p>There are four factors at play, he says: the Federal Reserve’s discussion on tapering, rising inflation, pressure on profit margins and corporate tax hikes.</p>\n<h3>The Fed’s impact</h3>\n<p>The Fed has been purchasing Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities rapidly at about $80 billion per month and $40 billion per month, respectively.</p>\n<p>It said back in June that it would continue that practice until “substantial further progress” had been made toward the Fed’s employment and price stability goals.</p>\n<p>Some analysts are anticipating that may happen sooner than later.</p>\n<p>This worries Levkovich because a significant part of the S&amp;P 500’s move back to record highs is due to the Fed’s easy-money policies and abundance of capital flooding the market.</p>\n<p>The Fed had previously committed to keeping interest rates close to 0% until March 2024, but with the threat of inflation rising higher than previously anticipated, observers are now preparing for as many as two rate hikes in 2023.</p>\n<h3>Corporate margins narrowing</h3>\n<p>President Joe Biden has proposed raising the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%, which opponents worry could disrupt the country’s fragile economic recovery and a big cut to earnings — as much as 13% according to some estimates.</p>\n<p>While evidence suggests that corporate tax increases have been far from disastrous to U.S. stock performance historically, profits will certainly be constrained.</p>\n<p>Finally, companies are facing even narrower margins these days as consumer prices continue to bump up against 13-year highs. And as legendary investor Warren Buffett once said, “Inflation acts as a gigantic corporate tapeworm.”</p>\n<h2>How investors should use this information</h2>\n<p>The combination of those four risk factors has Levkovich calling for a double-digit slide stock market slide in the coming weeks.</p>\n<p>That being said, he adds that not every industry will be as impacted by a downturn.</p>\n<p>Investors can’t afford to be complacent about their stock choices. When deciding between an asset that promises value or growth, Levkovich suggests investors should prioritize value.</p>\n<p>It’s a strategy that the “Oracle of Omaha” Warren Buffett relies on even in a bull market.</p>\n<p>And while Levkovich does anticipate growth will see a resurgence later this year, he’s not entirely sold on it as a well-rounded long-term investing strategy.</p>\n<p>“If you think of the last decade or so, you’ve had growth outperforming value tremendously so investors are conditioned to buy growth,” Levkovich told the Closing Bell in July. “And as a result, one of the things I worry about is the idea that value is kind of a dalliance, it’s a fling, and then they go back to their true love: growth.”</p>\n<h2>Picking investments to ride out the ups and downs</h2>\n<p>All this means is that a red-hot stock market has made it easy for investors — until now.</p>\n<p>Going forward, you’ll have to be more intentional about where you invest.</p>\n<p>Borrowing Buffett’s strategy, look for companies that offer clear value, regardless of the state of the economy.</p>\n<p>One asset Bill Gates is partial to is investing in farmland. Over the years, agriculture has even been shown to perform better than stocks and real estate.</p>\n<p>Levkovich has warned that while the overall index may take a hit, individual stock pickers can still do well.

But now, he’s predicting an imminent fall. If he’s right, investors are sure to feel some pain in the coming months.\nAnd if some act fast, there could be plenty of opportunities as well.\nWhat Citigroup is warning about\nLevkovich has been warning about a correction for months now.\n“Hitting new highs, leading to new highs means markets never correct, which doesn’t quite make sense,” Levkovich told the hosts of CNBC’s Closing Bell in June.\nThat same month, Levkovich wrote a note to Citi clients expressing that the company would be maintaining its cautious view over the short term.\nIn the letter, he adamantly stuck to his year-end target of 4,000 for the S&P 500, which was 5% below the index’s level at the time. At current levels, that target represents downside of up to 10%.\nAnd he’s not the only one worrying about the future. Just a few months before that note, Suze Orman was predicting a slide, too.\nBut now, Levkovich is anticipating the correction could come as soon as September.\nLevkovich is worried about four factors in particular\nWhat’s got Levkovich so concerned about the market’s near future?\nThere are four factors at play, he says: the Federal Reserve’s discussion on tapering, rising inflation, pressure on profit margins and corporate tax hikes.\nThe Fed’s impact\nThe Fed has been purchasing Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities rapidly at about $80 billion per month and $40 billion per month, respectively.\nIt said back in June that it would continue that practice until “substantial further progress” had been made toward the Fed’s employment and price stability goals.\nSome analysts are anticipating that may happen sooner than later.\nThis worries Levkovich because a significant part of the S&P 500’s move back to record highs is due to the Fed’s easy-money policies and abundance of capital flooding the market.\nThe Fed had previously committed to keeping interest rates close to 0% until March 2024, but with the threat of inflation rising higher than previously anticipated, observers are now preparing for as many as two rate hikes in 2023.\nCorporate margins narrowing\nPresident Joe Biden has proposed raising the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%, which opponents worry could disrupt the country’s fragile economic recovery and a big cut to earnings — as much as 13% according to some estimates.\nWhile evidence suggests that corporate tax increases have been far from disastrous to U.S. stock performance historically, profits will certainly be constrained.\nFinally, companies are facing even narrower margins these days as consumer prices continue to bump up against 13-year highs. And as legendary investor Warren Buffett once said, “Inflation acts as a gigantic corporate tapeworm.”\nHow investors should use this information\nThe combination of those four risk factors has Levkovich calling for a double-digit slide stock market slide in the coming weeks.\nThat being said, he adds that not every industry will be as impacted by a downturn.\nInvestors can’t afford to be complacent about their stock choices. When deciding between an asset that promises value or growth, Levkovich suggests investors should prioritize value.\nIt’s a strategy that the “Oracle of Omaha” Warren Buffett relies on even in a bull market.\nAnd while Levkovich does anticipate growth will see a resurgence later this year, he’s not entirely sold on it as a well-rounded long-term investing strategy.\n“If you think of the last decade or so, you’ve had growth outperforming value tremendously so investors are conditioned to buy growth,” Levkovich told the Closing Bell in July. “And as a result, one of the things I worry about is the idea that value is kind of a dalliance, it’s a fling, and then they go back to their true love: growth.”\nPicking investments to ride out the ups and downs\nAll this means is that a red-hot stock market has made it easy for investors — until now.\nGoing forward, you’ll have to be more intentional about where you invest.\nBorrowing Buffett’s strategy, look for companies that offer clear value, regardless of the state of the economy.\nOne asset Bill Gates is partial to is investing in farmland. Over the years, agriculture has even been shown to perform better than stocks and real estate.\nLevkovich has warned that while the overall index may take a hit, individual stock pickers can still do well. But individual stocks can get expensive. With the help of a popular investing app, you can buy fractional shares of big-name stocks to get a slice of their profits.\nThis article provides information only and should not be construed as advice.

The analysts, led by Andrew Sheets, observed in a Friday note that realized, one-month equity volatility across the U.S., Europe and emerging markets has fallen to the 25th percentile of the last 15 years.</p>\n<p>But below the surface, “volatility has jumped” for other assets, they wrote, unveiling a new cross-asset gauge, dubbed the Composite Sigma Indicator, which stands at its highest reading in five years with the exception of the COVID-induced turmoil of the second quarter of 2020 (see chart below). That reflects a rising number of extreme one-day moves, defined as a standard deviation of larger than 1.5.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a225428109bc24bddb8dbd14801b7065\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"408\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>MORGAN STANLEY RESEARCH</span></p>\n<p>Anyone who has paid attention to the U.S. and global government bond markets in recent weeks probably won’t be surprised to learn that rates markets are at the heart of those moves. Indeed, the Composite Sigma Indicator has been driven by extreme moves in yield curves; inflation breakevens, which measure the difference between inflation-protected and nominal debt of the same maturity; and 2-year rates, the analysts said.</p>\n<p>Short-term government bond yields, including those on 2-year U.S. Treasury notes,&nbsp;began a sharp rise in September as investors began to pencil in a more aggressive stance by global central banks in response to inflation that has proven more persistent than expected. The gap between short- and long-dated yields narrowed significantly, a yield-curve phenomenon known as flattening.</p>\n<p>The speed of the move has been interpreted by some investors as the potential harbinger of&nbsp;a “policy mistake,”in which central banks spark an economic downturn by tightening too aggressively. The moves also wrong-footed investors, leaving some high-profile hedge funds with large October losses,according to The Wall Street Journal.</p>\n<p>Two-year rates in Poland, meanwhile, have risen by 85 basis points, or 0.85 percentage point, a 12.2 sigma deviation on the distribution of weekly moves for the rate, the analysts noted. The U.K. saw “extreme dislocations” as short-term rates rose and long-term rates fell, while in commodities markets, iron-ore prices are down 20%.</p>\n<p>“Rates are the sole driver of this move, while other assets are unusually calm.

The analysts, led by Andrew Sheets, observed in a Friday note that realized, one-month equity volatility across the U.S., Europe and emerging markets has fallen to the 25th percentile of the last 15 years.\nBut below the surface, “volatility has jumped” for other assets, they wrote, unveiling a new cross-asset gauge, dubbed the Composite Sigma Indicator, which stands at its highest reading in five years with the exception of the COVID-induced turmoil of the second quarter of 2020 (see chart below). That reflects a rising number of extreme one-day moves, defined as a standard deviation of larger than 1.5.\nMORGAN STANLEY RESEARCH\nAnyone who has paid attention to the U.S. and global government bond markets in recent weeks probably won’t be surprised to learn that rates markets are at the heart of those moves. Indeed, the Composite Sigma Indicator has been driven by extreme moves in yield curves; inflation breakevens, which measure the difference between inflation-protected and nominal debt of the same maturity; and 2-year rates, the analysts said.\nShort-term government bond yields, including those on 2-year U.S. Treasury notes, began a sharp rise in September as investors began to pencil in a more aggressive stance by global central banks in response to inflation that has proven more persistent than expected. The gap between short- and long-dated yields narrowed significantly, a yield-curve phenomenon known as flattening.\nThe speed of the move has been interpreted by some investors as the potential harbinger of a “policy mistake,”in which central banks spark an economic downturn by tightening too aggressively. The moves also wrong-footed investors, leaving some high-profile hedge funds with large October losses,according to The Wall Street Journal.\nTwo-year rates in Poland, meanwhile, have risen by 85 basis points, or 0.85 percentage point, a 12.2 sigma deviation on the distribution of weekly moves for the rate, the analysts noted. The U.K. saw “extreme dislocations” as short-term rates rose and long-term rates fell, while in commodities markets, iron-ore prices are down 20%.\n“Rates are the sole driver of this move, while other assets are unusually calm. Risk management in global rates feels very different from equities or FX heading into year-end,” the analysts wrote.\nStocks stumbled in September, but major indexes roared back in October and continue to press to all-time highs this month. The S&P 500 was up 26.9% year to date through Friday, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average has rallied 21.2% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 23.9%.\nSo what does it all mean? “It suggests that the liquidity environment is already shifting, even if not readily apparent in the S&P 500,” they said.\nIt also means that risk premium matters (see chart below).\nMORGAN STANLEY RESEARCH\n“Many of the markets with the largest recent moves were those priced for the calmest environments. As idiosyncratic risk rises, and risk management becomes more challenging, we see opportunities in high versus low risk premium markets,” they wrote.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":589,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":152484205,"gmtCreate":1625327931207,"gmtModify":1631891688101,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;Wow 😲","listText":"&nbsp;Wow 😲","text":"Wow 😲","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/152484205","repostId":"1188153141","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1188153141","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625276221,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1188153141?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-03 09:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Suze Orman worries about a market crash — here's what you should do","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188153141","media":"MoneyWise","summary":"As stock markets continue setting records, fallout from COVID-19 continues to create problems for th","content":"<p>As stock markets continue setting records, fallout from COVID-19 continues to create problems for the economy.</p>\n<p>That clash has worried investing experts, including Suze Orman, who's gone so far as to say she’s now preparing for an inevitable market crash.</p>\n<p>And a famous measurement popularized by Warren Buffett — known as the Buffett Indicator — shows Orman might be onto something.</p>\n<p>Here’s an explanation of where the concern is coming from and some techniques you can use tokeep your investment portfolio growingeven if the market goes south.</p>\n<p><b>What does Suze Orman think?</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be8dc3ad363faad96bc575a22235562d\" tg-width=\"703\" tg-height=\"293\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Mediapunch/Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Suze Orman has avidly watched the market for decades.

Traditional IRAs, on the other hand, aren’t taxed when you make contributions, so you’ll end up paying later.\nIf you find you need a little more guidance, working with aprofessional financial adviser, can help point you in the right direction so you can confidently ride out any market volatility.\nWhile everyone else is veering off course or overcorrecting, you’ll be firmly in the driver’s seat with your sunset years planned for.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":193,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":848766494,"gmtCreate":1636030784367,"gmtModify":1636030784918,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"OK","listText":"OK","text":"OK","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/848766494","repostId":"1158417116","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158417116","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":1636027483,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1158417116?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-04 20:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Thursday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158417116","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures were at record highs on Thursday, propped up by a slew of stellar earnings reports and as investors shrugged off the Federal Reserve's first steps to begin paring its pandemic-era support.At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 17 points, or 0.05%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 5.25 points, or 0.11%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 60.5 points, or 0.38%.Tesla Inc added 1.9% and was set for a record open, while other mega-cap technology titans Microsoft Corp, Google-owner A","content":"<p>The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq futures were at record highs on Thursday, propped up by a slew of stellar earnings reports and as investors shrugged off the Federal Reserve's first steps to begin paring its pandemic-era support.</p>\n<p>At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 17 points, or 0.05%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were up 5.25 points, or 0.11%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 60.5 points, or 0.38%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/34b82a3a6bcc1b43dfa28ebacdf9efcb\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Tesla Inc&nbsp;added 1.9% and was set for a record open, while other mega-cap technology titans Microsoft Corp, Google-owner Alphabet Inc, Amazon.com&nbsp;and Meta Platforms&nbsp;also edged higher.</p>\n<p>The U.S. unemployment picture improved again last week, with initial filings for unemployment insurance falling to another pandemic-era low.First-time claims dropped to 269,000 for the week ended Oct. 30, down 14,000 from the previous period and better than the Dow Jones estimate for 275,000, the Labor Department reported Thursday.</p>\n<p>Continuing state jobless claims fall 134,000 to 2.1million;U.S. productivity sinks 5% in third quarter;U.S. trade gap widens to record $80.9 billion in September from revised $72.8 billion in prior month;U.S. output rises 1.7% in third quarter, hours worked jump 7%;U.S. unit-labor costs surge 8.3% in the third quarter.</p>\n<p><b>Stocks making the biggest moves premarket: </b></p>\n<p><b>Moderna(MRNA)</b> – Moderna tumbled 11.5% in premarket action, following quarterly shortfalls in both earnings and revenue as well as a cut in the drug maker’s full-year earnings outlook.

She has used at least five more since to buy face cream, T-shirts and birthday gifts.</p>\n<p>Installment plans are back&nbsp;in style.PayPal Holdings&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;last week&nbsp;said it was buying Japanese installment payment startup&nbsp;Paidy Inc., following Square Inc.’s&nbsp;$29 billion deal&nbsp;for&nbsp;Afterpay&nbsp;Ltd.Macy’s&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Bed Bath &amp; Beyond&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;have added the option at checkout over the past year. Even&nbsp;Amazon.com&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;is doing it.</p>\n<p>One reason: shoppers like Ms. Luedtke who don’t qualify for credit cards. Buy-now-pay-later companies say they rely less on—and in some cases bypass altogether—traditional credit scores and reports. Doing so allows them to approve more consumers. Shoppers gain the ability to buy things even without cash on hand—translating to higher sales for retailers.</p>\n<p>Afterpay said it expects the company’s U.S. merchants will see an $8.2 billion increase in sales this year because of payment plans.Affirm Holdings&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;last year said purchases made with its payment plans were 85% larger, on average.</p>\n<p>Shoppers spend more at Macy’s when they use installment plans offered through Klarna Bank AB, Macy’s CEO Jeff Gennette said on a recent earnings call. Klarna also is helping the retailer attract younger customers, he said.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/40620bab35c446816da175fb2334c05e\" tg-width=\"435\" tg-height=\"562\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>“The value that most retailers see in buy now, pay later is customer acquisition,” said David Sykes, Klarna’s North America head.</p>\n<p>Ms. Luedtke, 26, has credit cards now but still prefers installment plans. Just last month, she used them to buy about $40 of Peter Thomas Roth skin-care products and $65 in clothing from Shein.</p>\n<p>“It definitely influences how much more I buy or would spend,” she said. “It’s easier to pay $200 over so many weeks compared to $200 right now.”</p>\n<p>Buy now, pay later is a new twist on an old idea. Big retailers have for decades offered installment plans for big-ticket items like washing machines. Today, these plans come in a variety of flavors. Afterpay offers payment plans that shoppers usually attach to their debit cards. Others, like Affirm, also facilitate new loans.</p>\n<p>Interest rates and other terms vary by payment-plan provider. Affirm interest rates range from 0% to 30%, with some 43% of its transactions during its last fiscal year not charging interest at all. The company doesn’t charge late fees. Afterpay doesn’t charge interest but does collect late fees.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/223a1da79b30869fc443b06f41a959eb\" tg-width=\"441\" tg-height=\"556\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Merchants take no credit risk with these plans, but the fees they incur can be higher than on credit-card purchases—often between 3% and 5% of the purchase price, according to people familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>Buy-now-pay-later companies say they can approve more customers than banks, including people who have thin or no borrowing history. Some 53 million adults in the U.S. lack traditional credit scores, according to FICO score creator&nbsp;Fair Isaac&nbsp;Corp.Installment plans are safer, they say, because they are often smaller than credit-card spending limits and approved on a per-transaction basis.</p>\n<p>Affirm said that it had a net charge-off rate of 1% in the quarter ended June 30, down from 2% a year earlier. Afterpay said it wrote off 0.6% of the total dollars it processed in payments during the company’s fiscal year ended June 30, up from 0.4% the year prior.</p>\n<p>Working with a web of retailers, buy-now-pay-later companies can create self-contained payment ecosystems. They factor payment behavior into future underwriting decisions. Customers who pay late or not at all risk losing the installment option at other participating retailers.</p>\n<p>“Most merchants want a partner who has real advantage and real ability to underwrite,” said Affirm CEO Max Levchin. “These are not deeper approvals, but they are different approvals.”</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2f0a5ab7e1c7d6de154b68c230f13b49\" tg-width=\"1050\" tg-height=\"700\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Affirm facilitates new loans among other payment plans.</span></p>\n<p>Amazon&nbsp;and&nbsp;Walmart&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;are both working with Affirm. Both have said they want their financial partners to extend credit to more of their customers.</p>\n<p>Amazon is reviewing proposals, as it weighs whether to replace its longtime card issuer, JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. Amazon is looking for “commitments to underwrite competitively to widen the acquisition funnel,” the retailer said in a request for proposals reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.</p>\n<p>A desire to boost loan approvals was among the reasons Walmart in 2018 decided to end its decadeslong credit-card partnership with&nbsp;Synchrony Financial.(Capital One Financial Corp. now issues Walmart-branded credit cards.) The retailer made Affirm loans available to most of its customers the following year.</p>\n<p>“Our goal is financial inclusion for all,” said Julia Unger, Walmart’s vice president of financial services.</p>\n<p>Some banks now offer installment options on their credit cards.Citigroup&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;saw a sevenfold increase in the dollar amount of credit-card purchases converted to installment loans in July, compared with the same month a year prior, said Gonzalo Luchetti, head of Citigroup’s U.S. consumer bank.</p>\n<p>Synchrony, the largest U.S. store-credit-card issuer, will launch a buy-now, pay-later plan in October.

She has used at least five more since to buy face cream, T-shirts and birthday gifts.\nInstallment plans are back in style.PayPal Holdings Inc. last week said it was buying Japanese installment payment startup Paidy Inc., following Square Inc.’s $29 billion deal for Afterpay Ltd.Macy’s Inc. and Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. have added the option at checkout over the past year. Even Amazon.com Inc. is doing it.\nOne reason: shoppers like Ms. Luedtke who don’t qualify for credit cards. Buy-now-pay-later companies say they rely less on—and in some cases bypass altogether—traditional credit scores and reports. Doing so allows them to approve more consumers. Shoppers gain the ability to buy things even without cash on hand—translating to higher sales for retailers.\nAfterpay said it expects the company’s U.S. merchants will see an $8.2 billion increase in sales this year because of payment plans.Affirm Holdings Inc. last year said purchases made with its payment plans were 85% larger, on average.\nShoppers spend more at Macy’s when they use installment plans offered through Klarna Bank AB, Macy’s CEO Jeff Gennette said on a recent earnings call. Klarna also is helping the retailer attract younger customers, he said.\n\n“The value that most retailers see in buy now, pay later is customer acquisition,” said David Sykes, Klarna’s North America head.\nMs. Luedtke, 26, has credit cards now but still prefers installment plans. Just last month, she used them to buy about $40 of Peter Thomas Roth skin-care products and $65 in clothing from Shein.\n“It definitely influences how much more I buy or would spend,” she said. “It’s easier to pay $200 over so many weeks compared to $200 right now.”\nBuy now, pay later is a new twist on an old idea. Big retailers have for decades offered installment plans for big-ticket items like washing machines. Today, these plans come in a variety of flavors. Afterpay offers payment plans that shoppers usually attach to their debit cards. Others, like Affirm, also facilitate new loans.\nInterest rates and other terms vary by payment-plan provider. Affirm interest rates range from 0% to 30%, with some 43% of its transactions during its last fiscal year not charging interest at all. The company doesn’t charge late fees. Afterpay doesn’t charge interest but does collect late fees.\n\nMerchants take no credit risk with these plans, but the fees they incur can be higher than on credit-card purchases—often between 3% and 5% of the purchase price, according to people familiar with the matter.\nBuy-now-pay-later companies say they can approve more customers than banks, including people who have thin or no borrowing history. Some 53 million adults in the U.S. lack traditional credit scores, according to FICO score creator Fair Isaac Corp.Installment plans are safer, they say, because they are often smaller than credit-card spending limits and approved on a per-transaction basis.\nAffirm said that it had a net charge-off rate of 1% in the quarter ended June 30, down from 2% a year earlier. Afterpay said it wrote off 0.6% of the total dollars it processed in payments during the company’s fiscal year ended June 30, up from 0.4% the year prior.\nWorking with a web of retailers, buy-now-pay-later companies can create self-contained payment ecosystems. They factor payment behavior into future underwriting decisions. Customers who pay late or not at all risk losing the installment option at other participating retailers.\n“Most merchants want a partner who has real advantage and real ability to underwrite,” said Affirm CEO Max Levchin. “These are not deeper approvals, but they are different approvals.”\nAffirm facilitates new loans among other payment plans.\nAmazon and Walmart Inc. are both working with Affirm. Both have said they want their financial partners to extend credit to more of their customers.\nAmazon is reviewing proposals, as it weighs whether to replace its longtime card issuer, JPMorgan Chase & Co. Amazon is looking for “commitments to underwrite competitively to widen the acquisition funnel,” the retailer said in a request for proposals reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.\nA desire to boost loan approvals was among the reasons Walmart in 2018 decided to end its decadeslong credit-card partnership with Synchrony Financial.(Capital One Financial Corp. now issues Walmart-branded credit cards.) The retailer made Affirm loans available to most of its customers the following year.\n“Our goal is financial inclusion for all,” said Julia Unger, Walmart’s vice president of financial services.\nSome banks now offer installment options on their credit cards.Citigroup Inc. saw a sevenfold increase in the dollar amount of credit-card purchases converted to installment loans in July, compared with the same month a year prior, said Gonzalo Luchetti, head of Citigroup’s U.S. consumer bank.\nSynchrony, the largest U.S. store-credit-card issuer, will launch a buy-now, pay-later plan in October. Capital One will test out its own offering later this year, CEO Richard Fairbank said at a conference Monday.\nWells Fargo & Co. and Bank of America Corp. are exploring adding installment plans on their credit cards, according to people familiar with the matter.Visa Inc. said it has been testing out ways for shoppers to check if they qualify for installment plans when they enter their card numbers at checkout.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":124,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":808676330,"gmtCreate":1627579243620,"gmtModify":1631889356905,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp; Like","listText":"&nbsp; Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/808676330","repostId":"1131907757","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":122796969,"gmtCreate":1624632370351,"gmtModify":1631893414325,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/122796969","repostId":"1100357819","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1100357819","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624631602,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1100357819?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 22:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Three reasons why analysts view Google’s delayed cookie change as good news for ad tech stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1100357819","media":"cnbc","summary":"Googlesaid Thursday it waspushing backits timeline to kill third-party tracking cookies, sending ad ","content":"<div>\n<p>Googlesaid Thursday it waspushing backits timeline to kill third-party tracking cookies, sending ad tech stocks flying.

Though the change is still slated to happen in 2023, analysts say more time is a positive for players likeThe Trade DeskandCriteo.\nCookies are small pieces of code that websites deliver to a visitor’s browser and stick around as the person visits other sites. They can be used to track users across multiple sites to target ads and see how they perform. Googlesaid last yearit would end support for those cookies in Chrome by early 2022 once it figured out how to address the needs of users, publishers and advertisers and come up with tools to mitigate workarounds. But this week, Googleupdated that timeline, saying in a blog post that it was clear more time was needed.\n“We believe this is ... good news for ad tech stocks, as it removes a near-term overhang, pushing it out by up to two years, with further delays possible,” Macquarie analysts wrote Thursday.\nThe Trade Desk surged 16% Thursday. Magnite closed up 8% Thursday. Criteo jumped to a new 52-week-high Friday, up 1% after closing 12% higher Thursday.\nHere are three ways analysts see the change as a positive for ad tech stocks:\nMore time to diversify revenue away from cookies\nNeedham analysts wrote that the delay impacts the allocation of $400 billion dollars a year globally of digital ad revenue between walled gardens like Google andFacebookand open internet ad tech companies like The Trade Desk or Magnite. They wrote that the delay means cookie-based revenues at those open internet companies will be lesser at the time of the change. Companies like The Trade Desk and Magnite have a growing presence in connected TV, a sector that’s not impacted by the cookie change.\nKeybanc analysts agree the updated timeline gives companies more time to grow in cookie-free channels like CTV.\n“By the time 3P cookies are deprecated, we believe there is a strong likelihood advertisers and AdTech providers will have lower revenue exposures to 3P cookies and face minimal (if any) business disruption,” they wrote.\nTargeting alternatives have more time\nAd tech firms and industry bodies have been working together on other types of solutions for a post-cookie future. Unified ID 2.0,an initiativethat some top ad-tech firms are working on together, would rely on email addresses that are hashed and encrypted from consumers who give their consent. Public companyLiveRampalso has what it callsits “Authenticated Traffic Solution,”which it says involves consumers opting in to gain control of their data, and on the other side, brands and publishers being able to use that data.\nAnalysts said the delay means more time for these alternatives to gain traction.\n“People-based targeting substitutes to Cookies, such as Unified ID 2.0 and ATS, will now have 2 additional years to aggregate consumers and ecosystem partners,” Needham analysts wrote.\nTruist analysts agreed.\n“A delay in cookie deprecation should give TTD and others more time to refine their offering, attract more partners and increase adoption, in our view,” they wrote.\nPotential of more delays\nU.K. antitrust authorities said earlier this year they areinvestigatingwhether the plan to remove third-party cookies from Chrome could hurt online ad competition. The Competition and Markets Authority said it will look into whether Google’s plans could cause advertisers to shift spend to Google’s own tools at the expense of its competitors.\n“Subject to our engagement with the United Kingdom’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) and in line with thecommitmentswe have offered, Chrome could then phase out third-party cookies over a three month period, starting in mid-2023 and ending in late 2023,” Google’s post Thursday said.\nBut Needham analysts seem skeptical about that timeline.\n“We believe late 2023 will not be long enough since the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has agreed to oversee and approve any Chrome changes,” they wrote. “Google said its new timeline was in line with this UK settlement agreement, but our view is that 2 years is too fast for governments to accomplish such a large economic transfer of wealth, such as reallocating economics between Walled Gardens and the Open Internet. Since politicians are victims of every group that’s injured in the change, we think this increases the likelihood that it takes longer than 2 years and/or that it never happens.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":121,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121365757,"gmtCreate":1624454477479,"gmtModify":1634005938704,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;Wow","listText":"&nbsp;Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/121365757","repostId":"1121798334","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121798334","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624451302,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1121798334?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-23 20:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin And The 2000 Technology Bubble Have A Lot In Common","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121798334","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nBitcoin has many similarities to the speculative nature of the stock market of the late 199","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Bitcoin has many similarities to the speculative nature of the stock market of the late 1990s.</li>\n <li>There's nothing fundamental about Bitcoin to anchor its valuation.</li>\n <li>The technicals suggest it falls to between 16,000 and 19,000.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Volatility in Bitcoin (BTC-USD) is picking up once again, and it isn't likely to go away anytime soon. The cryptocurrency has been trading in a range between 30,000 and 40,000 over the past few weeks. That volatility may only persist as it tests key levels of technical support.</p>\n<p>There are plenty of reasons for the recent weakness. China is cracking down on bitcoin mining operations. In addition, the country has told banks and payment services to stop supporting digital currency transactions. This comes on top of the potential for regulatory risk in the US and the potential environmental damages mining for bitcoin creates.</p>\n<p><b>No Anchor</b></p>\n<p>On top of external factors that seem to be creating volatility in Bitcoin, investors need to wonder about its stability and whether or not it can act as a hedge against the dollar, and what a stronger dollar may mean. To this point, Bitcoin has been anything but stable and anything but a hedge against the dollar or any investment for that matter.</p>\n<p>The big swings, higher or massive losses, reflect that of a highly speculative asset class. The big swings are because there's nothing to anchor Bitcoin to since there's an absence of anything that even remotely appears to be fundamental to make it an attractive option versus another asset class.</p>\n<p><b>Bubble</b></p>\n<p>Bitcoin has many similarities to that of speculative bubbles in the past. For example, the most recent one is the technology bubble of the late 1990s. All a company had to do was add a dot.com to the end of their corporate name or say they were launching a website. This would send the stock soaring, even though there was nothing fundamental that actually change.</p>\n<p>Back then, investors came up with all sorts of ingenious ways how to value some of these dot.com stocks. Even though some of those valuations made no sense, there was something to show how one could arrive at that valuation. Investors could look to extrapolate cash flow or the potential revenue and earnings growth. At least there was something because the company either created something or had something of value to sell.</p>\n<p>With Bitcoin, there seems to be plenty of reason why the crypto can rise, but very little to support some of these far-fetched valuations. Bitcoin produces nothing, clearly has no store of value or stability, and offers no dividend. There is no revenue, no cash flow, nothing. At least in the speculative technology bubble of the late 1990s, even though the valuation was a stretch, an investor could decide if they agreed or disagreed with the analysis. Bitcoin offers investors no such way to do that.</p>\n<p><b>Technicals</b></p>\n<p>The only thing an investor is left with are technical charts, and those continue to look really weak. It's currently testing support around 30,000 and is likely heading even lower to complete a 5 wave cycle. Based on a projection of this 5 wave counted, Bitcoin is likely heading toward 16,300.

The cryptocurrency has been trading in a range between 30,000 and 40,000 over the past few weeks. That volatility may only persist as it tests key levels of technical support.\nThere are plenty of reasons for the recent weakness. China is cracking down on bitcoin mining operations. In addition, the country has told banks and payment services to stop supporting digital currency transactions. This comes on top of the potential for regulatory risk in the US and the potential environmental damages mining for bitcoin creates.\nNo Anchor\nOn top of external factors that seem to be creating volatility in Bitcoin, investors need to wonder about its stability and whether or not it can act as a hedge against the dollar, and what a stronger dollar may mean. To this point, Bitcoin has been anything but stable and anything but a hedge against the dollar or any investment for that matter.\nThe big swings, higher or massive losses, reflect that of a highly speculative asset class. The big swings are because there's nothing to anchor Bitcoin to since there's an absence of anything that even remotely appears to be fundamental to make it an attractive option versus another asset class.\nBubble\nBitcoin has many similarities to that of speculative bubbles in the past. For example, the most recent one is the technology bubble of the late 1990s. All a company had to do was add a dot.com to the end of their corporate name or say they were launching a website. This would send the stock soaring, even though there was nothing fundamental that actually change.\nBack then, investors came up with all sorts of ingenious ways how to value some of these dot.com stocks. Even though some of those valuations made no sense, there was something to show how one could arrive at that valuation. Investors could look to extrapolate cash flow or the potential revenue and earnings growth. At least there was something because the company either created something or had something of value to sell.\nWith Bitcoin, there seems to be plenty of reason why the crypto can rise, but very little to support some of these far-fetched valuations. Bitcoin produces nothing, clearly has no store of value or stability, and offers no dividend. There is no revenue, no cash flow, nothing. At least in the speculative technology bubble of the late 1990s, even though the valuation was a stretch, an investor could decide if they agreed or disagreed with the analysis. Bitcoin offers investors no such way to do that.\nTechnicals\nThe only thing an investor is left with are technical charts, and those continue to look really weak. It's currently testing support around 30,000 and is likely heading even lower to complete a 5 wave cycle. Based on a projection of this 5 wave counted, Bitcoin is likely heading toward 16,300. Additionally, the relative strength index is falling, suggesting the bulls have no control over it at this point. Even the MACD is showing a downward sloping trend line as well. This is also a big negative.\n\nA log chart of Bitcoin also shows that it's breaking down, with Bitcoin falling below an uptrend that started in March2020. This also shows that once support at 30,000 breaks, it could send Bitcoin to around 19,000.\n\nBitcoin has had an impressive run, but perhaps, speculators finally realize the trade is over.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":140,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182580991,"gmtCreate":1623588704813,"gmtModify":1634031389485,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/182580991","repostId":"2142204448","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":121,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182517560,"gmtCreate":1623588645550,"gmtModify":1634031389978,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/182517560","repostId":"2142206100","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2142206100","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1623470400,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2142206100?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-12 12:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"15 momentum stocks expected to show the best sales growth over the next two years, including Carvana, Tesla and Palantir","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142206100","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Several companies on a stock screen have estimated two-year revenue growth of over 100%.\nThere are m","content":"<p>Several companies on a stock screen have estimated two-year revenue growth of over 100%.</p>\n<p>There are many broad approaches to the stock market for selecting individual companies or groups for investments.

But shares of Merck &amp; Co.

From here, the financials might not be the best place to look for rapidly rising revenue over the next two years.</p>\n<p>Starting with the 125 momentum stocks held by MTUM, here are the 15 companies expected by analysts polled by FactSet to increase revenue the most over the next two calendar years, with 2021 as the baseline. The figures are in millions of dollars:</p>\n<p>Those are stellar sales-growth numbers -- if the analysts are close to being correct. Many of the stocks are also expensive relative to the expected 2023 sales numbers. In comparison, the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EMDI\">iShares</a> S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IVW\">$(IVW)$</a> (which tracks the entire S&amp;P 500 Growth Index) trades for 4.2 times estimated 2023 sales.</p>\n<p>Plug Power Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PLUG\">$(PLUG)$</a> tops the list, with analysts expecting sales to increase to $1.1 billion in 2023. The company said on June 10 it would build a hydrogen-production plant in Camden County, Ga.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNAP\">Snap Inc</a>. (SNAP) CEO Evan Spiegal said recently the company had grown to 500 million active daily users and that almost half of U.S. smartphone users were using Snapchat.</p>\n<p>Novavax Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVAX\">$(NVAX)$</a> expects to apply for FDA approval of its coronavirus vaccine during the third quarter.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVNA\">Carvana Co.</a> (CVNA) has been on a tear, with used-car demand spiking in the wake of component shortages for automobile production. The company's sales by units increased 76% in the first quarter from a year earlier.</p>\n<p>Uber Technologies Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UBER\">$(UBER)$</a> and Lyft Inc <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LYFT\">$(LYFT)$</a> are also expected to ride the economic recovery wave, although analysts expect Lyft to take longer to exceed its pre-pandemic revenue level .</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PLTR\">Palantir Technologies Inc.</a> (PLTR) rounds out the list. The developer of software used by government defense and intelligence agencies was included in this analysis of meme stocks .</p>\n<p>Earnings</p>\n<p>Some of these companies are still in relatively early growth stages, and aren't expected to achieve full-year profitability until 2023. Here are consensus earnings-per-share estimates for three years:</p>\n<p>Those are very high price-to-earnings ratios based on current stock prices and consensus estimates for 2023. But for rapidly growing companies, earnings typically aren't a priority, which explains why Amazon.com Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a> always trades at a high P/E. In comparison, the the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EMEY\">iShares</a> S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF trades for 23.3 times its weighted aggregate consensus earnings estimate for 2023.</p>\n<p>Wall Street's opinion</p>\n<p>Here's a summary of opinion about the 15 companies held by MTUM that analysts expect to grow their revenue the most over the next two years:</p>\n<p>The 12-month price targets may not be useful -- for traders, this is an eternity; it may be a short period for long-term investors looking to profit for years as sales (and hopefully earnings, eventually) compound. It is important to do your own research and form your own opinion about a company's financial health and its ability to remain competitive.</p>","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>15 momentum stocks expected to show the best sales growth over the next two years, including Carvana, Tesla and Palantir</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\">\n15 momentum stocks expected to show the best sales growth over the next two years, including Carvana, Tesla and Palantir\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-06-12 12:00</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Several companies on a stock screen have estimated two-year revenue growth of over 100%.</p>\n<p>There are many broad approaches to the stock market for selecting individual companies or groups for investments.

But it can also work over the long term.\nBelow is a list of momentum stocks of companies expected to show the strongest sales growth over the next two years.\nMomentum ETF\nTo begin with a large group of momentum stocks, we can look at the iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF (MTUM). This is the largest U.S. ETF that follows a momentum strategy, according to Mark Hulbert performance relative to its benchmark, the S&P 500 Growth Index.\nFor example, the largest holding of the ETF is Tesla Inc. $(TSLA)$, which \"has experienced strong risk-adjusted performance related to the market over the past 12 months,\" according to iShares (a subsidiary of BlackRock Inc. $(BLK)$).

How should I best try to explain to you what is SoftBank? What is Masayoshi Son?”\nSon said he would describe SoftBank as a “capital provider for the information revolution” in the 21stcentury in the same way that Mayer Amschel Rothschild was a capital provider for the industrial revolution in the 19thcentury.\n“In the industrial revolution, one of the main players was Rothschild,” Son said, using one of the quirky slideshows that SoftBank has become well known for to illustrate his points. “We would like to be the capital provider for the information revolution. That is our new definition or new positioning I would say to describe SoftBank Group.”\nSon said there were “many famous inventors (who) did a great job,” during the industrial revolution, calling out steam engine pioneer James Watt.\n“But that industrial revolution did not happen only by inventors,” he said, adding that capitalists were equally as important. “Mr. Watt is quite famous, but Rothschild as the capitalist may not be fully understood, may not be fully valued,” Son said.\nInformation revolution in full bloom\nToday, the “information revolution is? in full bloom,” according to Son, who said artificial intelligence is a particular area of focus for SoftBank.\n“We believe that the we are the biggest in terms of providing capital,” he said on AI, adding that driving, healthcare, retail, finance and education will all be redefined by AI in the years ahead.\nIn the industrial revolution, manpower was replaced by machines, Son said. “In the information revolution, AI will be the one replacing machinery,” he said.\nSoftBank has invested in 264 companies through its two Vision Funds, as well as a dedicated Latin America fund.\n“The majority of the companies are not actually making money,” Son said. “We are taking risks and at the same time providing funds … as a capital provider.”\nNet asset value is a key metric that SoftBank focuses on when measuring its own performance, Son said. At the end of March, SoftBank’s NAV was about 26 trillion Japanese yen ($235 billion), Son said, adding that it fluctuates on a daily basis and sits at around 25 trillion yen today.\nThere have been four main drivers for SoftBank’s business over the years, Son said. Initially it was Yahoo, then it was SoftBank Mobile and eventually it became Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba. But recently the Vision Fund is “taking a good lead in net asset value,” Son said, adding that he’s “spent a lot of time” on it himself.\nSon claimed SoftBank has recorded a 43% internal rate of return every year in the last 25 years and pointed out that the banks provide less than 1% and asset management companies are 8 to 10%.\n“Up until last year, the Vision Fund was criticized or given a hard time,” Son said. “People said that Masa is not as young anymore so Masa is not as good as before and Masa becomes too greedy or you don’t have a lot money or a lot of hair anymore … but finally we started to see some recovery.”\nThat said, Son admitted there are a “lot of lessons” SoftBank has learned after big bets on loan issuer Greensill, office space provider WeWork and dog walking app Wag turned sour. “I felt embarrassed sometimes by those hard lessons,” he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":127,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":848313467,"gmtCreate":1635965935881,"gmtModify":1635965936431,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/848313467","repostId":"1128649961","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1128649961","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1635954934,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1128649961?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-03 23:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon Stock: It's Down 12% From Record.

As worries remain, should investors buy the dip in November?</p>\n<p>Since&nbsp;the company’s second quarter earnings report, Amazon stock&nbsp;has been struggling to find traction. And while some hoped that third quarter results could suggest a post-pandemic recovery in e-commerce, Amazon’s online store sales climbed a mere 12% – low compared to nearly 40% last year.</p>\n<p>Now, AMZN is 12% off its all-time high. Given the current setup, could November be a good month to buy Amazon stock? The Amazon Maven discusses the opportunity below.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/859137fd59747f3531fd786b5fae3a82\" tg-width=\"893\" tg-height=\"500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Figure 1: Amazon fulfillment center.</span></p>\n<p><b>Fundamentals still solid</b></p>\n<p>Few will disagree that Amazon is still the king of e-commerce. The company has been using the “flywheel approach” to its advantage, pulling together demand for its products and services and creating customer loyalty. With the number of Prime members&nbsp;expected to reach nearly 7 out of 10 American households&nbsp;by 2025, we believe that the Seattle-based company is the obvious candidate to capture the most growth opportunities.</p>\n<p>On the cloud side, Amazon seems to have nothing but blue skies ahead (pun intended). AWS (i.e. Amazon Web Services) was instrumental in keeping total company op profits afloat in the third quarter – a combination of top-line momentum and a low marginal cost model. With the cloud space projected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 20% through 2028 at least, market leader Amazon stands to benefit.</p>\n<p><b>Buying the dip</b></p>\n<p>While it is hard to make short-term predictions on price movement, the recent pullback in AMZN could be an opportunity for long-term shareholders.As the Amazon Maven has discussed before, “buying the fear and selling the greed” has worked well for Amazon stock.</p>\n<p>The chart below shows that buying AMZN and holding it for a year has produced an average of 33% in gains over the past two decades. Doing so after a 15% correction or more has led to even better returns of 42%. Therefore, with the stock officially in correction mode (i.e. 10% or more below peak levels), November could prove to be a good time to buy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fe59b47af83bd439a7f35ab6c5325b9b\" tg-width=\"630\" tg-height=\"410\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Figure 2: Median one-year return on AMZN.</span></p>\n<p><b>Wall Street says buy</b></p>\n<p>The pandemic has led analysts to think that shopping habits would be disrupted for good.

As worries remain, should investors buy the dip in November?\nSince the company’s second quarter earnings report, Amazon stock has been struggling to find traction. And while some hoped that third quarter results could suggest a post-pandemic recovery in e-commerce, Amazon’s online store sales climbed a mere 12% – low compared to nearly 40% last year.\nNow, AMZN is 12% off its all-time high. Given the current setup, could November be a good month to buy Amazon stock? The Amazon Maven discusses the opportunity below.\nFigure 1: Amazon fulfillment center.\nFundamentals still solid\nFew will disagree that Amazon is still the king of e-commerce. The company has been using the “flywheel approach” to its advantage, pulling together demand for its products and services and creating customer loyalty. With the number of Prime members expected to reach nearly 7 out of 10 American households by 2025, we believe that the Seattle-based company is the obvious candidate to capture the most growth opportunities.\nOn the cloud side, Amazon seems to have nothing but blue skies ahead (pun intended). AWS (i.e. Amazon Web Services) was instrumental in keeping total company op profits afloat in the third quarter – a combination of top-line momentum and a low marginal cost model. With the cloud space projected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 20% through 2028 at least, market leader Amazon stands to benefit.\nBuying the dip\nWhile it is hard to make short-term predictions on price movement, the recent pullback in AMZN could be an opportunity for long-term shareholders.As the Amazon Maven has discussed before, “buying the fear and selling the greed” has worked well for Amazon stock.\nThe chart below shows that buying AMZN and holding it for a year has produced an average of 33% in gains over the past two decades. Doing so after a 15% correction or more has led to even better returns of 42%. Therefore, with the stock officially in correction mode (i.e. 10% or more below peak levels), November could prove to be a good time to buy.\nFigure 2: Median one-year return on AMZN.\nWall Street says buy\nThe pandemic has led analysts to think that shopping habits would be disrupted for good. However, Amazon’s two most recent earnings reports have proven that e-commerce benefited from a temporary spike in buy-from-home activity in 2020 – and that enough demand has been shifting back to the brick-and-mortar channel this year.\nExpectations seem to have been reset. Still, Wall Street consensus remains highly bullish. Analysts believe that Amazon stock should be worth over $4,000 in the foreseeable future, according to TipRanks. If so, this would represent upside of 22%, even if such gains may take months to materialize.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":814,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":146525149,"gmtCreate":1626092658181,"gmtModify":1631891688025,"author":{"id":"3578563881684908","authorId":"3578563881684908","name":"LPN","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63e3cb5f66016a665aadbe18eaadb09b","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578563881684908","authorIdStr":"3578563881684908"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;Wow","listText":"&nbsp;Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/146525149","repostId":"2150871585","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2150871585","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626091110,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2150871585?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 19:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Everything is happening faster now: Morning Brief","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2150871585","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"The markets, the economy, and the whole business cycle accelerates\nA defining feature of the COVID-1","content":"<p>The markets, the economy, and the whole business cycle accelerates</p>\n<p>A defining feature of the COVID-19 economy has been speed.</p>\n<p>The speed with which the economy shutdown last year rocked markets and the general public.</p>\n<p>The speed with which the economy re-opened was similarly surprising.</p>\n<p>The speed with which a COVID-19 vaccine was developed, and subsequently rolled out in the U.S., is the scientific achievement of a generation.</p>\n<p>And as this cycle has matured, the pace of change has hardly slowed.</p>\n<p>Last week, it seems investors almost all at once noticed the 10-year yield had fallen to multi-month lows.

One place to get some investment ideas is Robinhood's 100 most popular stocks list. Here are two popular Robinhood stocks that could crush Dogecoin going forward.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21859b0af15cb96a0c3a3aa3d6358251\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"420\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>NVIDIA</h2>\n<p>While Dogecoin has nosedived in recent months, <b>NVIDIA</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has taken off. One reason why is NVIDIA's upcoming four-for-<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> stock split. While stock splits don't impact a company's valuation directly, they can attract greater numbers of small investors.</p>\n<p>However, there are plenty of even better reasons to like NVIDIA that have nothing to do with its stock split. The most obvious one is the company's gaming business.</p>\n<p>Gaming remains NVIDIA's biggest moneymaker, generating $2.8 billion of the company's total revenue of nearly $5.7 billion in the first quarter of 2021. And business is booming. NVIDIA's gaming revenue more than doubled year over year.</p>\n<p>It isn't just that gaming is increasing in popularity (although that is the case). NVIDIA benefits from regular hardware upgrade cycles.

What started out as a joke has enabled some to laugh all the way to the bank.\nOn the other hand, skeptics about Dogecoin would be just as quick to note that it has given up more than 60% of its earlier gains. Anyone who jumped on the Dogecoin late is probably sitting on some hefty losses.\nRegardless of what your take is on Dogecoin, what really matters is where you should put your money now. One place to get some investment ideas is Robinhood's 100 most popular stocks list. Here are two popular Robinhood stocks that could crush Dogecoin going forward.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA\nWhile Dogecoin has nosedived in recent months, NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has taken off. One reason why is NVIDIA's upcoming four-for-one stock split. While stock splits don't impact a company's valuation directly, they can attract greater numbers of small investors.\nHowever, there are plenty of even better reasons to like NVIDIA that have nothing to do with its stock split. The most obvious one is the company's gaming business.\nGaming remains NVIDIA's biggest moneymaker, generating $2.8 billion of the company's total revenue of nearly $5.7 billion in the first quarter of 2021. And business is booming. NVIDIA's gaming revenue more than doubled year over year.\nIt isn't just that gaming is increasing in popularity (although that is the case). NVIDIA benefits from regular hardware upgrade cycles. New games require even more processing power, which drives demand for the more powerful graphics processing units (GPUs).\nI especially like that NVIDIA is leveraging its gaming expertise to target new markets. For example, the company recently unveiled Omniverse Enterprise, a platform where design teams can build 3D virtual simulations and collaborate in real-time. In effect, NVIDIA is turning work into play (or vice versa, depending on how you look at it).\nNVIDIA CFO Colette Kress said in the company's Q1 conference call, \"As the world becomes more digital, virtual and collaborative, we see a significant revenue opportunity for Omniverse.\" I think that Kress's optimism is well-founded.\nDon't overlook NVIDIA's potential in the data center market, though.

In particular, the Arm deal would boost NVIDIA's presence in the fast-growing Internet of Things market with chips for mobile devices.\nSure, an overall cryptocurrency crash could cause NVIDIA's shares to fall due to the popularity of the company's GPUs with crypto miners. It's happened before. However, the company has taken steps to segment its gaming business from crypto. I think that any pullback would only be temporary. NVIDIA has too many other strong growth drivers.\nModerna\nMost companies can't honestly say that they've helped change the world. Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) can.\nThe biotech's COVID-19 vaccine was second only to the vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech to win U.S. Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Moderna reported $1.9 billion in sales for the vaccine in Q1, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.\nBased on supply agreements in place as of early May, Moderna projected that its COVID-19 vaccine would rake in sales this year of $19.2 billion.
