Its shares are scheduled to begin trading Wednesday in a direct listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SQSP.</p>\n<p>The company offers various tools for website creation, including domains, e-commerce functions and marketing capabilities. Squarespace aims to work with small businesses that have limited web expertise as well as “large brands” that need greater flexibility to customize based on their needs.</p>\n<p>Squarespace sees itself playing into a number of trends, including a growing need for businesses to maintain direct relationships with their customers and an increased emphasis on do-it-yourself solutions that are “rapidly displacing expensive agencies and making equivalent design quality out-of-the-box, accessible and easy-to-use for all,” the company said in&nbsp;its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</p>\n<p>The company raised $300 million in a March funding round that gave the company an enterprise valuation of $10 billion, and is not raising any new funding as it lists. Here is what else you need to know about the company.</p>\n<p><b>Growing Revenue, Shrinking Profits</b></p>\n<p>Squarespace posted $621 million in revenue during 2020, up from $485 million a year earlier. Revenue was up 28% in the latest fiscal year, ahead of the 24% growth rate seen in the prior period.</p>\n<p>The company classifies 94% of its revenue as subscription-based. Squarespace added about 700,000 new unique subscriptions in 2020 and the company disclosed that more than two thirds of total subscriptions are annual.</p>\n<p>About 70% of Squarespace’s revenue last year came from the U.S., while the rest was international.</p>\n<p>Squarespace was profitable last year, recording about $30.6 million in net income, though profits were down from $58.2 million in 2019. The company’s “fundamentals highlight a rare combo of profitability and growth at scale,” wrote MKM Partners analyst Rohit Kulkarni.</p>\n<p>Despite a string of profitability on an annual basis, Squarespace generated a net loss of $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2021 compared with a loss of $1.1 million a year earlier. The company posted profits in each of the last three quarters of 2020.</p>\n<p><b>Competition Aplenty</b></p>\n<p>The company competes with a variety of different players across the e-commerce industry, according to its filing. Squarespace counts web-creation platforms like&nbsp;Wix.com&nbsp;(ticker: WIX) and Square’s (SQ) Weebly among its competition, along with e-commerce powerhouse&nbsp;Shopify&nbsp;(ticker: SHOP),&nbsp;which lets businesses set up online shops.</p>\n<p>Squarespace also calls out competitors like GoDaddy (GDDY) that offer domain-name tools, as well as those providing email-marketing and scheduling functions, while arguing that its own “comprehensive, all-in-one platform, multichannel commerce capabilities” are an asset.</p>\n<p>Jefferies analyst Brent Thill notes that Wix is larger than Squarespace, with revenue of $989 million last year versus $621 million for Squarespace.

Its shares are scheduled to begin trading Wednesday in a direct listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker SQSP.\nThe company offers various tools for website creation, including domains, e-commerce functions and marketing capabilities. Squarespace aims to work with small businesses that have limited web expertise as well as “large brands” that need greater flexibility to customize based on their needs.\nSquarespace sees itself playing into a number of trends, including a growing need for businesses to maintain direct relationships with their customers and an increased emphasis on do-it-yourself solutions that are “rapidly displacing expensive agencies and making equivalent design quality out-of-the-box, accessible and easy-to-use for all,” the company said in its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nThe company raised $300 million in a March funding round that gave the company an enterprise valuation of $10 billion, and is not raising any new funding as it lists. Here is what else you need to know about the company.\nGrowing Revenue, Shrinking Profits\nSquarespace posted $621 million in revenue during 2020, up from $485 million a year earlier. Revenue was up 28% in the latest fiscal year, ahead of the 24% growth rate seen in the prior period.\nThe company classifies 94% of its revenue as subscription-based. Squarespace added about 700,000 new unique subscriptions in 2020 and the company disclosed that more than two thirds of total subscriptions are annual.\nAbout 70% of Squarespace’s revenue last year came from the U.S., while the rest was international.\nSquarespace was profitable last year, recording about $30.6 million in net income, though profits were down from $58.2 million in 2019. The company’s “fundamentals highlight a rare combo of profitability and growth at scale,” wrote MKM Partners analyst Rohit Kulkarni.\nDespite a string of profitability on an annual basis, Squarespace generated a net loss of $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2021 compared with a loss of $1.1 million a year earlier. The company posted profits in each of the last three quarters of 2020.\nCompetition Aplenty\nThe company competes with a variety of different players across the e-commerce industry, according to its filing. Squarespace counts web-creation platforms like Wix.com (ticker: WIX) and Square’s (SQ) Weebly among its competition, along with e-commerce powerhouse Shopify (ticker: SHOP), which lets businesses set up online shops.\nSquarespace also calls out competitors like GoDaddy (GDDY) that offer domain-name tools, as well as those providing email-marketing and scheduling functions, while arguing that its own “comprehensive, all-in-one platform, multichannel commerce capabilities” are an asset.\nJefferies analyst Brent Thill notes that Wix is larger than Squarespace, with revenue of $989 million last year versus $621 million for Squarespace. In addition, Squarespace’s revenue last year was similar to what Wix posted in 2018, but Wix was posting faster growth at that scale, and without the benefit of the pandemic-driven acceleration in e-commerce more broadly, he wrote.\nOn the Menu\nSquareSpace recently closed its $415 million acquisition of Tock, a company focused on the restaurant and hospitality industries. Tock’s services allow businesses to manage reservations, takeout, event ticketing and more.\nThis part of the business may position SquareSpace against more tech giants, suggested MKM’s Kulkarni.\n“SquareSpace’s offering with Tock faces competition from delivery services such as Uber Eats (UBER),DoorDash (DASH) and Grubhub (GRUB), along with other restaurant [customer-relationship management] services such as TouchBistro and Toast,” he wrote.\nAt the same time, the acquisition is an example of one way Squarespace has “smartly diversified into selling not just physical goods online but also adding calendar/scheduling capabilities (restaurant or gym reservations), content sales, and subscriptions,” he continued.\nMarketing Bucks\nSquarespace’s marketing and sales costs are growing far faster than its revenue. The company incurred $3.1 million in such expenses last year, up from $1.7 million in 2019, making for a 45% increase, whereas revenue was up 28% in the same span.\nThe company’s podcast advertisements may be familiar to frequent listeners, though Squarespace notes in its prospectus that it advertises its services broadly, using “online keyword search, sponsorships and celebrity endorsements, television, podcasts, print and online advertising, email and social media marketing.”\nAmong its risk factors, Squarespace points to the possibility that Alphabet’s (GOOGL) Google could change its algorithm or raise the costs of its search-engine-marketing tools.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":246,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":192832420,"gmtCreate":1621174713660,"gmtModify":1634193589810,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/192832420","repostId":"1163454382","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":384,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196040977,"gmtCreate":1621001329999,"gmtModify":1634194645756,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/196040977","repostId":"1187261016","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1187261016","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":1621000005,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1187261016?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-14 21:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. senators expected to announce $52 bln chips funding deal -- sources","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1187261016","media":"Reuters","summary":"May 14  - A bipartisan group of U.S. senators is expected to unveil a $52 billion proposal on Friday that would significantly boost U.S. semiconductor chip production and research over five years, sources briefed on the matter said.Senators Mark Kelly, John Cornyn, Mark Warner and Tom Cotton have been negotiating a compromise measure to address the issue in the face of rising Chinese semiconductor production and shortages impacting automakers and other U.S. industries.

However Walmart.com is the second largest eCommerce player after<b>Amazon</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>). It’s about one-fifth the size of Amazon’s sales but is growing fast. In 2020 Walmart eCommerce grew 79% while Amazon’s retail business grew 34%.</p>\n<p>As Walmart races to catch Amazon in the eCommerce game, they are spending and investing heavily in online and omni-channel initiatives. As a separate segment, Walmart.com operates at a loss, currently estimated at approximately $1 billion. That heavy spending also distorts the P/E ratio for WMT stock, as the eCommerce business is expected to eventually generate billions in operating profits.</p>\n<p>However, Walmart management’s apparent obsession with Amazon and the desire for Walmart.com to be #1 in eCommerce is worrying. I never understood why certain companies, and Walmart may fall into this category,<i>have</i>to be #1. Why not just produce strong and consistent double digit revenue growth as well as a satisfactory return on capital above their cost of capital. That’s it!&nbsp; That’s all they need to do. Massive spending to be #1 instead of just excellent may eventually end up being detrimental to Walmart shareholders.</p>\n<p><b>International</b></p>\n<p>Walmart’s international business has 6,101 stores and operates in 25 countries using over 50 brands such as Asda, Massmart, Seiyu and Walmart de Mexico. Steady revenue growth is often elusive for this segment due to currency fluctuations and the changing ownership structures of their overseas interests. However the international business is profitable with operating margins of 3.0%, 2.8%, and 4.0% over the past three years.</p>\n<p>If this segment was ever spun off as a publicly traded company, it may garner high emerging market valuations. For this year, Walmart International is expected to grow faster than the U.S. business on a constant currency basis.</p>\n<p><b>Sam’s Club</b></p>\n<p>Started in 1983, Walmart’s version of a bulk, or wholesale store model has grown to 599 stores. Sam’s Club is about one-third&nbsp;the size of<b>Costco</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>COST</u></b>) with revenues of $63 billion compared to revenues of $184 billion for Costco.</p>\n<p>It may be wise to spin off Sam’s Club at some point. Although doubtful it could obtain Costco’shigh valuation multiple, the focus of a stand alone company may be beneficial to shareholders.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<p>WMT stock trades at 26 times this year’s estimated EPS with an enterprise value of 12.3 times.&nbsp; Walmart’s historical P/E ratio has averaged in the low-to-mid teens for most of its history. The law of large numbers and the large established physical store base typically inhibit the rapid growth that can lead to a higher P/E ratio.</p>\n<p>WMT’s current high valuation ratios may just be a factor of thecrazy stock market environmentthat we’re living through. However, one needs to factor in the billions that is being spent on eCommerce initiatives. That spending is temporarily depressing EPS numbers until the eCommerce segment generates profits on a stand-alone basis. That brings down the “normalized” P/E a couple of notches.</p>\n<p>In addition, the International segment has below company average operating margins and is depressing overall results.

However Walmart.com is the second largest eCommerce player afterAmazon(NASDAQ:AMZN). It’s about one-fifth the size of Amazon’s sales but is growing fast. In 2020 Walmart eCommerce grew 79% while Amazon’s retail business grew 34%.\nAs Walmart races to catch Amazon in the eCommerce game, they are spending and investing heavily in online and omni-channel initiatives. As a separate segment, Walmart.com operates at a loss, currently estimated at approximately $1 billion. That heavy spending also distorts the P/E ratio for WMT stock, as the eCommerce business is expected to eventually generate billions in operating profits.\nHowever, Walmart management’s apparent obsession with Amazon and the desire for Walmart.com to be #1 in eCommerce is worrying. I never understood why certain companies, and Walmart may fall into this category,haveto be #1. Why not just produce strong and consistent double digit revenue growth as well as a satisfactory return on capital above their cost of capital. That’s it!  That’s all they need to do. Massive spending to be #1 instead of just excellent may eventually end up being detrimental to Walmart shareholders.\nInternational\nWalmart’s international business has 6,101 stores and operates in 25 countries using over 50 brands such as Asda, Massmart, Seiyu and Walmart de Mexico. Steady revenue growth is often elusive for this segment due to currency fluctuations and the changing ownership structures of their overseas interests. However the international business is profitable with operating margins of 3.0%, 2.8%, and 4.0% over the past three years.\nIf this segment was ever spun off as a publicly traded company, it may garner high emerging market valuations. For this year, Walmart International is expected to grow faster than the U.S. business on a constant currency basis.\nSam’s Club\nStarted in 1983, Walmart’s version of a bulk, or wholesale store model has grown to 599 stores. Sam’s Club is about one-third the size ofCostco(NASDAQ:COST) with revenues of $63 billion compared to revenues of $184 billion for Costco.\nIt may be wise to spin off Sam’s Club at some point. Although doubtful it could obtain Costco’shigh valuation multiple, the focus of a stand alone company may be beneficial to shareholders.\nValuation\nWMT stock trades at 26 times this year’s estimated EPS with an enterprise value of 12.3 times.  Walmart’s historical P/E ratio has averaged in the low-to-mid teens for most of its history. The law of large numbers and the large established physical store base typically inhibit the rapid growth that can lead to a higher P/E ratio.\nWMT’s current high valuation ratios may just be a factor of thecrazy stock market environmentthat we’re living through. However, one needs to factor in the billions that is being spent on eCommerce initiatives. That spending is temporarily depressing EPS numbers until the eCommerce segment generates profits on a stand-alone basis. That brings down the “normalized” P/E a couple of notches.\nIn addition, the International segment has below company average operating margins and is depressing overall results. As operations in various countries can bring their infrastructure up to what domestic units have achieved, that will bring an additional boost to EPS down the road.\nWMT stock is not cheap, but on the other hand, its not substantially overvalued due to the factors mentioned above. Short-term investors may wait for a slightly cheaper entry point to be on the safe side, but longer-term investors should buy now if their holding period is five to ten years.\nLikeBerkshire Hathaway(NYSE:BRK-A, NYSE:BRK-B), Walmart plans for decades or even centuries of longevity. They’ll be around for a long time, just likeSam Waltonwould have wanted.\nOn the date of publication Tom Kerr did not have (either directly or indirectly) any positions in the securities mentioned in this article.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":369,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":106679750,"gmtCreate":1620117565570,"gmtModify":1634207684224,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/106679750","repostId":"1162810357","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":289,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101375327,"gmtCreate":1619853032969,"gmtModify":1634209459307,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/101375327","repostId":"1138497242","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1138497242","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":1619794882,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1138497242?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-30 23:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Twitter may struggle to replicate bumper 2020 growth","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1138497242","media":"Reuters","summary":"Twitter Inc will struggle to replicate a bumper 2020 dominated by the U.S. political battles, civil ","content":"<p>Twitter Inc will struggle to replicate a bumper 2020 dominated by the U.S. political battles, civil unrest and the COVID-19 crisis as people venture out following vaccine rollouts, Wall Street analysts said on Friday.</p><p>The lifting of restrictions as people get vaccinated has largely seen benefiting other digital ad firms such as Facebook Inc and Alphabet Inc’s Google whose stocks soared after reporting blockbuster results this week.</p><p>Not so with Twitter.

Murphy rates Microsoft at Overweight and has a target of $245 for the stock price.Wedbush analyst Dan Ives forecast “another masterpiece quarter,” driven by growth of at least 45% from Azure, which he thinks is taking market share from Amazon Web Services. He said the current work-from-home environment is encouraging more businesses to make strategic moves toward cloud-based operations “with Microsoft across the board with Azure growth remaining brisk.” He maintained an Outperform rating, with a target of $300 for the share price.Citi analyst Tyler Radke last week reiterated a Buy rating on Microsoft shares, lifting his price target to $302, from $292, and setting a “positive catalyst watch” on the stock ahead of the results. He wrote that a combination of a survey of resellers and channel checks made him more confident that Microsoft can propel revenue across all three primary business segments, with strength in personal computer demand from both consumers and businesses, robust upgrade activity on server software, and continued strength in Azure as a result of “continued strong enterprise consumption growth.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":234,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374840003,"gmtCreate":1619440558802,"gmtModify":1634273478773,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/374840003","repostId":"1184404050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1184404050","pubTimestamp":1619319329,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1184404050?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-25 10:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What to watch in the markets this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1184404050","media":"CNBC","summary":"The last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House.Big Tech is a highlight of the earnings calendar, with Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet all releasing results.The Fed is not expected to take any action, but economists expect it to defend its policy to let inflation run hot.There is some key data including first-quarter gross domestic product a","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/23/taxes-and-inflation-will-be-key-themes-for-markets-in-the-week-ahead.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992. They manage through it and lately they’ve been delivering,” he said.Week ahead calendarMondayEarnings:Tesla,Canadian National Railway, Canon,Check Point Software,Otis Worldwide, Vale,Ameriprise,NXP

Fool","summary":"With short-haul leisure travel leading the recovery, United's traditional reliance on business travel and long-haul international routes will drag down its near-term performance.","content":"<p>Over the past year, <b>United Airlines</b> (NASDAQ:UAL) has been near the top of the U.S. airline industry in terms of limiting its cash burn. Considering its heavy exposure to hard-hit long-haul travel, United's cash burn performance was impressive.</p><p>Cash burn continued to improve last quarter. Moreover, United reported that \"core\" cash flow turned positive in the month of March, driven by pent-up leisure travel demand. Nevertheless, with short-haul leisure travel driving the post-pandemic rebound, United Airlines is poised to fall behind top rival <b>Delta Air Lines</b> (NYSE:DAL) during the next stage of the recovery.</p><h2>Decent progress last quarter</h2><p>United Airlines' revenue fell 60% year over year in the first quarter of 2021. Despite aggressive cost cuts, United posted an adjusted pre-tax loss of $3.1 billion and an adjusted net loss of $2.4 billion.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F622240%2Fairline-united-continental-ual-boeing-737.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: United Airlines.</p><p>These results were slightly worse than the airline's fourth-quarter results. That matches the typical seasonality of the airline industry. Delta suffered a much bigger sequential increase in its pre-tax loss, making United's result look good by comparison.</p><p>United also reported that core cash burn narrowed to $9 million per day last quarter from $19 million a quarter earlier. Core cash burn even turned positive in the month of March. That said, it's important to note that this non-standard metric may make United's cash flow look stronger than it really is.</p><h2>Q2 guidance leaves something to be desired</h2><p>Like peers, United Airlines will benefit from improving travel demand in the second quarter. However, its reliance on long-haul international travel and business travel -- even compared to full-service airline rivals Delta Air Lines and <b>American Airlines</b> -- may start to weigh on its relative performance.</p><p>Management currently projects that unit revenue will be down about 20% from the second quarter of 2019 on 45% less capacity. This implies that total revenue will come in right around $5 billion: down 56% from two years earlier.</p><p>Furthermore, United expects its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin to be approximately -20% this quarter. That implies an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1 billion and an adjusted pre-tax loss of around $2 billion. For comparison, Delta's management recently projected that the carrier's adjusted pre-tax loss will narrow to between $1 billion and $1.5 billion this quarter.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F622240%2Fairline-delta-air-lines-dal-airbus-a330-300.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"465\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Delta expects a much smaller loss than United this quarter. Image source: Delta Air Lines.</p><p>Obviously, United could beat its guidance -- or Delta could miss its forecast. However, United has a suboptimal hub structure and fleet for the current demand environment, which is heavily weighted toward short-haul leisure travel. Thus, it wouldn't be surprising if the airline's disappointing Q2 forecast turns out to be roughly accurate.</p><h2>Do you believe in management's long-term optimism?</h2><p>United's management expects demand to continue recovering over the next few quarters, but the airline isn't making big promises about its near-term performance. By contrast, United Airlines executives are extremely bullish about the company's long-term prospects. They expect the carrier's adjusted EBITDA margin to surpass its 2019 level by 2023, with further growth beyond then.</p><p>An optimistic view of long-term business travel demand underpins this outlook. Most airlines are preparing for the possibility that growing comfort with videoconferencing tools will keep business travel demand below 2019 levels permanently. Meanwhile, United expects a full recovery in business travel by the summer of 2023.</p><p>During United's earnings call, CEO Scott Kirby provided some anecdotal evidence to support this view. He noted that the CEO of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> major corporate customer expects to increase business travel to beyond 2019 levels in the near term in order to reconnect with customers and rebuild the company culture.</p><p>Pessimists' predictions about massive long-term reductions in business travel are probably overblown.

Considering its heavy exposure to hard-hit long-haul travel, United's cash burn performance was impressive.Cash burn continued to improve last quarter. Moreover, United reported that \"core\" cash flow turned positive in the month of March, driven by pent-up leisure travel demand. Nevertheless, with short-haul leisure travel driving the post-pandemic rebound, United Airlines is poised to fall behind top rival Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) during the next stage of the recovery.Decent progress last quarterUnited Airlines' revenue fell 60% year over year in the first quarter of 2021. Despite aggressive cost cuts, United posted an adjusted pre-tax loss of $3.1 billion and an adjusted net loss of $2.4 billion.Image source: United Airlines.These results were slightly worse than the airline's fourth-quarter results. That matches the typical seasonality of the airline industry. Delta suffered a much bigger sequential increase in its pre-tax loss, making United's result look good by comparison.United also reported that core cash burn narrowed to $9 million per day last quarter from $19 million a quarter earlier. Core cash burn even turned positive in the month of March. That said, it's important to note that this non-standard metric may make United's cash flow look stronger than it really is.Q2 guidance leaves something to be desiredLike peers, United Airlines will benefit from improving travel demand in the second quarter. However, its reliance on long-haul international travel and business travel -- even compared to full-service airline rivals Delta Air Lines and American Airlines -- may start to weigh on its relative performance.Management currently projects that unit revenue will be down about 20% from the second quarter of 2019 on 45% less capacity. This implies that total revenue will come in right around $5 billion: down 56% from two years earlier.Furthermore, United expects its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin to be approximately -20% this quarter. That implies an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1 billion and an adjusted pre-tax loss of around $2 billion. For comparison, Delta's management recently projected that the carrier's adjusted pre-tax loss will narrow to between $1 billion and $1.5 billion this quarter.Delta expects a much smaller loss than United this quarter. Image source: Delta Air Lines.Obviously, United could beat its guidance -- or Delta could miss its forecast. However, United has a suboptimal hub structure and fleet for the current demand environment, which is heavily weighted toward short-haul leisure travel. Thus, it wouldn't be surprising if the airline's disappointing Q2 forecast turns out to be roughly accurate.Do you believe in management's long-term optimism?United's management expects demand to continue recovering over the next few quarters, but the airline isn't making big promises about its near-term performance. By contrast, United Airlines executives are extremely bullish about the company's long-term prospects. They expect the carrier's adjusted EBITDA margin to surpass its 2019 level by 2023, with further growth beyond then.An optimistic view of long-term business travel demand underpins this outlook. Most airlines are preparing for the possibility that growing comfort with videoconferencing tools will keep business travel demand below 2019 levels permanently. Meanwhile, United expects a full recovery in business travel by the summer of 2023.During United's earnings call, CEO Scott Kirby provided some anecdotal evidence to support this view. He noted that the CEO of one major corporate customer expects to increase business travel to beyond 2019 levels in the near term in order to reconnect with customers and rebuild the company culture.Pessimists' predictions about massive long-term reductions in business travel are probably overblown. Nevertheless, Kirby's belief that there will be no long-term impact on business travel seems like wishful thinking. (For comparison, Delta CEO Ed Bastian has estimated that business travel demand could permanently be 10% to 20% lower than it was before the pandemic.)Without a full recovery in business travel, United will remain at a relative disadvantage within the airline industry. Investors should probably wait for proof that United's aggressive long-term profit forecasts are achievable before betting big on this struggling airline.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371956827,"gmtCreate":1618905305669,"gmtModify":1634290007662,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/371956827","repostId":"2128689062","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128689062","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":1618862511,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2128689062?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-20 04:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street slips off record highs, Tesla drops after fatal crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128689062","media":"Reuters","summary":"Tesla falls after fatal crash, bitcoin slumpsGameStop shares jump as CEO exitsCoca-Cola rises as revenue beats estimates.

Analysts expect first-quarter earnings to have grown 30.9% from a year ago, according to Refinitiv IBES data.The U.S. economy is poised to boom as consumers hold $2 trillion in savings in excess of what they held before the pandemic, said Doug Peta, chief U.S. investment strategist at BCA Research, adding markets are in pause mode.\"If indeed we do keep grinding higher that would be healthy, that would suggest that the grinding higher is sustainable,\" Peta said. \"The pullbacks along the way are healthy.\"Nvidia fell after the UK government said it would look into the national security implications of Nvidia's purchase of British chip designer ARM Holdings, raising a question mark over the $40 billion deal.Coca-Cola Co rose after the beverage maker trounced estimates for quarterly profit and revenue, benefiting from the easing of pandemic curbs and wide vaccine rollouts.International Business Machines Corp   , another blue-chip company, slipped ahead of its results due after the market close.\"The market has had a huge jump to the upside so it needs to take a little bit of rest,\" said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Spartan Capital Securities in New York.\"For now it's just a little bit of profit taking as traders await results from big tech names on Wall Street.\"Unofficially, the Dow Jones Industrial Average    fell 0.35% to end at 34,082.44 points, while the S&P 500    lost 0.52% to 4,163.64.The Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.98% to 13,914.77.A recent retreat in benchmark 10-year Treasury yields from 14-month highs has helped high-flying technology stocks to rebound, while strong economic data has lifted the S&P 500 and the Dow to record levels.The S&P 500 has gained the past four weeks, its longest winning streak since August 2020.GameStop Corp    jumped on the announcement of its chief executive's resignation.Crypto stocks including miners Riot Blockchain    and Marathon Digital    each slumped as bitcoin took a hammering.Harley-Davidson Inc    jumped after the motorcycle maker raised it full-year forecast for sales growth.(Reporting by Shivani Kumaresan and Medha Singh in Bengaluru; Editing by Shounak Dasgupta, Bernard Orr and Richard Chang)","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":290,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373164455,"gmtCreate":1618832954977,"gmtModify":1634290555322,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/373164455","repostId":"2128525488","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":222,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379889479,"gmtCreate":1618715203791,"gmtModify":1634291295256,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/379889479","repostId":"1175692875","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175692875","pubTimestamp":1618582708,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1175692875?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-16 22:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175692875","media":"zerohedge","summary":"While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire","content":"<p>While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire, may of which will be worthless, and others will be providing a supporting \"pin\" to underlying prices.

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.How to trade this?As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations wherea large amount of open interest is set to expire.In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX  (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.  Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.  Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":164,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347753867,"gmtCreate":1618532515359,"gmtModify":1634292312080,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment please thanks","listText":"Like and comment please thanks","text":"Like and comment please thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/347753867","repostId":"1149662624","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":245,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347610351,"gmtCreate":1618492395173,"gmtModify":1634292583685,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578742007799495","idStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/347610351","repostId":"1125635474","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":61,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":197350603,"gmtCreate":1621430427602,"gmtModify":1634189230813,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578742007799495","authorIdStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like n comment&nbsp;","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/197350603","repostId":"1158638540","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158638540","pubTimestamp":1621409180,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1158638540?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-19 15:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Things to Know Ahead of the Squarespace’s Direct Listing","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158638540","media":"Barrons","summary":"The pandemic prompted many small businesses to gain online storefronts for the first time, creating an e-commerce wave that helped website-creation platform Squarespace Inc. accelerate its revenue growth.Now Squarespace will test the resilience of that e-commerce momentum as a public company.

The company incurred $3.1 million in such expenses last year, up from $1.7 million in 2019, making for a 45% increase, whereas revenue was up 28% in the same span.\nThe company’s podcast advertisements may be familiar to frequent listeners, though Squarespace notes in its prospectus that it advertises its services broadly, using “online keyword search, sponsorships and celebrity endorsements, television, podcasts, print and online advertising, email and social media marketing.”\nAmong its risk factors, Squarespace points to the possibility that Alphabet’s (GOOGL) Google could change its algorithm or raise the costs of its search-engine-marketing tools.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":246,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196040977,"gmtCreate":1621001329999,"gmtModify":1634194645756,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578742007799495","authorIdStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/196040977","repostId":"1187261016","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":295,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372279730,"gmtCreate":1619224413420,"gmtModify":1634287679182,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578742007799495","authorIdStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/372279730","repostId":"1122047796","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1122047796","pubTimestamp":1619190353,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1122047796?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-23 23:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Inovio Stock Is Crashing Today","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122047796","media":" Motley Fool ","summary":"The biotech just lost funding for the late-stage study of its COVID-19 vaccine candidate.\nWhat happe","content":"<p>The biotech just lost funding for the late-stage study of its COVID-19 vaccine candidate.</p>\n<p><b>What happened</b></p>\n<p>Shares of&nbsp;<b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:INO)&nbsp;were crashing 26.8% as of 11:05 a.m. EDT on Friday.

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992.

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.</p><p><b>In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.</b>As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.</p><p>How to trade this?</p><p>As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations where<b>a large amount of open interest is set to expire.</b>In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.</p><p>What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.</p><p>So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"<i>expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"</i></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0dac61cb87c2f2700d8a0e8e64324f81\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"638\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"</p><p>According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).<b>These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX&nbsp; (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae7a60d873792b825bdda669cafa0ed3\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"297\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:</p><blockquote>When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. <b>We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.</b></blockquote><p>With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.&nbsp; Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.&nbsp; Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.</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>$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move</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;

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.How to trade this?As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations wherea large amount of open interest is set to expire.In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX  (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.  Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.  Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":181,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":875487340,"gmtCreate":1637679300357,"gmtModify":1637679300498,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578742007799495","authorIdStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/875487340","repostId":"1120900378","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1120900378","pubTimestamp":1637677187,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1120900378?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-23 22:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Gold dips below $1,800 as dollar, yields firm on rate hike bets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1120900378","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - Gold eased below $1,800 on Tuesday as the dollar hit 16-month highs and Treasury yields ","content":"<p>(Reuters) - Gold eased below $1,800 on Tuesday as the dollar hit 16-month highs and Treasury yields firmed, with expectations that U.S. interest rates will rise next year shored up by the renomination of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.</p>\n<p>Spot gold was down 0.4% at $1,797.16 per ounce by 1022 GMT, while U.S. gold futures eased 0.5% to $1,797.70.</p>\n<p>The dollar index hit a fresh 16-month peak and U.S. Treasury yields firmed after Powell was nominated for a second term as Fed Chair, adding to confidence that the U.S. central bank will lift interest rates in 2022.

To get there, the stock needs to rise to $264.55.</p><p>The shares have gained 18% year to date.</p><p>Analysts expect another strong quarter from the company’s Azure and Office 365 cloud businesses, and will be looking for signs of accelerating growth in its enterprise operation. Sales of Surface hardware—laptops and whiteboards—were likely strong in the quarter, given the huge recent growth in PC purchases, although there is some potential that shortages of components resulted in unfilled demand. Strength in the PC market also bodes well for sales of the Windows operating system.&nbsp;</p><p>Microsoft breaks down its results into&nbsp;three segments: Productivity and Business Processes, which includes Office 365, Dynamics, and LinkedIn; Intelligence Cloud, which includes Azure and enterprise server software; and More Personal Computing, which includes Windows, Xbox, Surface hardware, and Bing.</p><p>When Microsoft reported its results for its fiscal second quarter in late January,CFO Amy Hood provided revenue guidance for each segment. For Productivity and Business Processes, she projected revenue of $13.35 billion to $13.6 billion. The call for Intelligent Cloud was for revenue of $14.7 billion to $14.95 billion, while she predicted $12.3 billion to $12.7 billion for More Personal Computing. If revenue for each segment came in at the top of its forecast range, the total would be $41.25 billion.</p><p>In research notes, several analysts cited positive comments from customers and resellers in projecting strong results.</p><p>Last week, KeyBanc Capital’s Michael Turits repeated his Overweight rating on the stock while lifting his target for the price to $295, from $280. He says the company is likely benefiting from a combination of strong IT demand and continuing strength in PC shipments.</p><p>“We continue to see Microsoft’s combination of expanding Azure scope, broad enterprise application innovation, and aggressive bundling seeing success in the market,” he wrote. “Nearly all North American Microsoft distributors/resellers we spoke with reported Microsoft channel revenue on or above plan.”</p><p>J.P. Morgan analyst Mark Murphy came away from his own new survey of resellers of Microsoft products encouraged about the outlook. He says those companies’ quarterly sales of Microsoft goods came in an average of 3.3% above their expectations, driven by improving enterprise demand. He reported strength across the company’s enterprise product lines, with growth in Azure, Teams, Office 365, and security products, among other places. Murphy rates Microsoft at Overweight and has a target of $245 for the stock price.</p><p>Wedbush analyst Dan Ives&nbsp;forecast “another masterpiece quarter,” driven by growth of at least 45% from Azure, which he thinks is taking market share from Amazon Web Services.

To get there, the stock needs to rise to $264.55.The shares have gained 18% year to date.Analysts expect another strong quarter from the company’s Azure and Office 365 cloud businesses, and will be looking for signs of accelerating growth in its enterprise operation. Sales of Surface hardware—laptops and whiteboards—were likely strong in the quarter, given the huge recent growth in PC purchases, although there is some potential that shortages of components resulted in unfilled demand. Strength in the PC market also bodes well for sales of the Windows operating system. Microsoft breaks down its results into three segments: Productivity and Business Processes, which includes Office 365, Dynamics, and LinkedIn; Intelligence Cloud, which includes Azure and enterprise server software; and More Personal Computing, which includes Windows, Xbox, Surface hardware, and Bing.When Microsoft reported its results for its fiscal second quarter in late January,CFO Amy Hood provided revenue guidance for each segment. For Productivity and Business Processes, she projected revenue of $13.35 billion to $13.6 billion. The call for Intelligent Cloud was for revenue of $14.7 billion to $14.95 billion, while she predicted $12.3 billion to $12.7 billion for More Personal Computing. If revenue for each segment came in at the top of its forecast range, the total would be $41.25 billion.In research notes, several analysts cited positive comments from customers and resellers in projecting strong results.Last week, KeyBanc Capital’s Michael Turits repeated his Overweight rating on the stock while lifting his target for the price to $295, from $280. He says the company is likely benefiting from a combination of strong IT demand and continuing strength in PC shipments.“We continue to see Microsoft’s combination of expanding Azure scope, broad enterprise application innovation, and aggressive bundling seeing success in the market,” he wrote. “Nearly all North American Microsoft distributors/resellers we spoke with reported Microsoft channel revenue on or above plan.”J.P. Morgan analyst Mark Murphy came away from his own new survey of resellers of Microsoft products encouraged about the outlook. He says those companies’ quarterly sales of Microsoft goods came in an average of 3.3% above their expectations, driven by improving enterprise demand. He reported strength across the company’s enterprise product lines, with growth in Azure, Teams, Office 365, and security products, among other places. Murphy rates Microsoft at Overweight and has a target of $245 for the stock price.Wedbush analyst Dan Ives forecast “another masterpiece quarter,” driven by growth of at least 45% from Azure, which he thinks is taking market share from Amazon Web Services. He said the current work-from-home environment is encouraging more businesses to make strategic moves toward cloud-based operations “with Microsoft across the board with Azure growth remaining brisk.” He maintained an Outperform rating, with a target of $300 for the share price.Citi analyst Tyler Radke last week reiterated a Buy rating on Microsoft shares, lifting his price target to $302, from $292, and setting a “positive catalyst watch” on the stock ahead of the results. He wrote that a combination of a survey of resellers and channel checks made him more confident that Microsoft can propel revenue across all three primary business segments, with strength in personal computer demand from both consumers and businesses, robust upgrade activity on server software, and continued strength in Azure as a result of “continued strong enterprise consumption growth.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":234,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378804583,"gmtCreate":1619013939242,"gmtModify":1634289214534,"author":{"id":"3578742007799495","authorId":"3578742007799495","name":"Kristyng","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6d3bead6fea6f6f414ce5a1a3ed5771","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578742007799495","authorIdStr":"3578742007799495"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/378804583","repostId":"2129346872","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2129346872","pubTimestamp":1619013480,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2129346872?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-21 21:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"United Airlines' Recovery Trajectory Fails to Impress","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2129346872","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With short-haul leisure travel leading the recovery, United's traditional reliance on business travel and long-haul international routes will drag down its near-term performance.","content":"<p>Over the past year, <b>United Airlines</b> (NASDAQ:UAL) has been near the top of the U.S. airline industry in terms of limiting its cash burn.
