Square is seeking to complement its business with new features over time, such as Buy Now and Pay Later via <b>Afterpay</b>.</p>\n<p>The Afterpay acquisition will give it access to 16 million consumers located both inside and outside of the United States. It could give the company momentum for expansion of Cash App in new markets, especially those where consumers are underbanked, like in emerging markets. Square reported net income of $574 million for Q2 2021 which was an increase of 89% year over year. In addition, the company has experienced revenue growth of 188% over the past three years.

Netflix has begun to generate robust operating cash flow, $713 million over the first six months of this year, despite investing a whopping $7 billion in new content.

We have shortages and supply line issues that hamper production and profitability. All of this will pass.</p>\n<p>What is the problem? Our government is dysfunctional, and we need leadership, especially now, to handle the myriad of domestic and foreign issues facing all of us. We will muddle through and finally get a much-needed traditional infrastructure bill and possibly a scaled-down $2 trillion social spending bill along with lower-than-expected punitive tax increases, this year but 2022 could be a great year, not just a very good year, if only we worked together.</p>\n<p>We have not altered our view that S&amp;P earnings could exceed $220/share in 2022 and $235/share in 2023 as operating margins hit nearly 14% in 2023, up from 11.5% in 2019. Why? Corporations have learned to do more with less during the pandemic; shortages and supply line issues will ease, and substantial increases in technology spending will go a long way, offsetting higher labor costs while improving operations/efficiencies on all levels. Powell will be right that higher inflationary pressures will be transitory, but it may take longer to normalize. We will continue to have accommodative fiscal and monetary policies in 2022. Not a bad market scenario, so use corrections as opportunities to add to your positions. So, as I've said before, invest, don't trade.</p>\n<p>Economies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked. Domestic cases have declined 23% and deaths 13% over the 14 days and 17% and 14%, respectively, globally. More than 6.43 billion doses have been administered globally across 184 countries at a daily rate of 28.7 million doses per day. In the U.S., 398 million doses have been given so far at an elevated rate of 931,983 doses per day.</p>\n<p>We still see over 75% of the global population vaccinated within six months and herd immunity sooner. Pfizer(NYSE:PFE)filed Thursday with the FDA its vaccine for children ages 5-11, bringing shots for all school-age children closer, which will boost the economy as parents can return to work. We expect that both Pfizer and Merck's(NYSE:MRK)filings with the FDA will be approved well before year-end. All good news!</p>\n<p>The Fed is itching to start tapering, ending its extraordinary monetary support, which is no longer needed as the economy is on firm footing, and it appears that the Delta variant is subsiding. Unfortunately, Powell and the Fed have been called out for oversight over board members' trading. Two governors have already resigned, and we expect one more may leave shortly. Tapering will probably begin before year-end if the next employment report improves from September and be finished by the third quarter of 2022.</p>\n<p>Again, tapering is NOT tightening, and we do not expect the Fed to start hiking the funds' rate until early 2023. The \"real\" funds' rate will be negative for some time which is NOT tightening at all. By the way, we disagree with Elizabeth Warren's criticism of Chairman Powell and hope that he is renominated next year. The bottom line is that the Fed will remain your friend for at least another 18 months. Don't fight the Fed!</p>\n<p>We are so frustrated by what is happening in D.C. It is all about politics, no surprise, and not about doing what is best for this country. Why do we always have to go to the brink before action is taken? That is precisely what happened this week when the Republicans caved and offered a two-month short-term debt limit extension letting the Dems off the hook from going the route of reconciliation. It passed Thursday night. Daily negotiations continue for the massive social infrastructure program. It will be much smaller than initially proposed, closer to $2 trillion rather than $3.5 trillion.

Interestingly the unemployment rate fell to 4.8% which is the Fed's year-end target as the participation rate declined to 61.6. Hourly earnings rose 0.6% and are up 4.3% in the year through August.

Unfortunately, OPEC opted against a big output boost lifting production by only 400,000 barrels/day, which will not be enough to limit further price increases, especially if we have a cold winter.

We have shortages and supply line issues that hamper production and profitability. All of this will pass.\nWhat is the problem? Our government is dysfunctional, and we need leadership, especially now, to handle the myriad of domestic and foreign issues facing all of us. We will muddle through and finally get a much-needed traditional infrastructure bill and possibly a scaled-down $2 trillion social spending bill along with lower-than-expected punitive tax increases, this year but 2022 could be a great year, not just a very good year, if only we worked together.\nWe have not altered our view that S&P earnings could exceed $220/share in 2022 and $235/share in 2023 as operating margins hit nearly 14% in 2023, up from 11.5% in 2019. Why? Corporations have learned to do more with less during the pandemic; shortages and supply line issues will ease, and substantial increases in technology spending will go a long way, offsetting higher labor costs while improving operations/efficiencies on all levels. Powell will be right that higher inflationary pressures will be transitory, but it may take longer to normalize. We will continue to have accommodative fiscal and monetary policies in 2022. Not a bad market scenario, so use corrections as opportunities to add to your positions. So, as I've said before, invest, don't trade.\nEconomies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked. Domestic cases have declined 23% and deaths 13% over the 14 days and 17% and 14%, respectively, globally. More than 6.43 billion doses have been administered globally across 184 countries at a daily rate of 28.7 million doses per day. In the U.S., 398 million doses have been given so far at an elevated rate of 931,983 doses per day.\nWe still see over 75% of the global population vaccinated within six months and herd immunity sooner. Pfizer(NYSE:PFE)filed Thursday with the FDA its vaccine for children ages 5-11, bringing shots for all school-age children closer, which will boost the economy as parents can return to work. We expect that both Pfizer and Merck's(NYSE:MRK)filings with the FDA will be approved well before year-end. All good news!\nThe Fed is itching to start tapering, ending its extraordinary monetary support, which is no longer needed as the economy is on firm footing, and it appears that the Delta variant is subsiding. Unfortunately, Powell and the Fed have been called out for oversight over board members' trading. Two governors have already resigned, and we expect one more may leave shortly. Tapering will probably begin before year-end if the next employment report improves from September and be finished by the third quarter of 2022.\nAgain, tapering is NOT tightening, and we do not expect the Fed to start hiking the funds' rate until early 2023. The \"real\" funds' rate will be negative for some time which is NOT tightening at all. By the way, we disagree with Elizabeth Warren's criticism of Chairman Powell and hope that he is renominated next year. The bottom line is that the Fed will remain your friend for at least another 18 months. Don't fight the Fed!\nWe are so frustrated by what is happening in D.C. It is all about politics, no surprise, and not about doing what is best for this country. Why do we always have to go to the brink before action is taken? That is precisely what happened this week when the Republicans caved and offered a two-month short-term debt limit extension letting the Dems off the hook from going the route of reconciliation. It passed Thursday night. Daily negotiations continue for the massive social infrastructure program. It will be much smaller than initially proposed, closer to $2 trillion rather than $3.5 trillion.

What are they doing for money? ","content":"<p>Almost one-third of all working-age men in America aren’t doing diddly-squat. They don’t have a job, and they aren’t looking for one either. One-third of all working-age men. That’s almost 30 million people!</p>\n<p>How do they live? What are they doing for money? To me, this is one of the great mysteries of our time.</p>\n<p>I’m certainly not the first person to make note of this shocking statistic. You’ve heard people bemoaning this \"labor participation rate,\" which is simply the number of working-age men (usually counted as ages 16 to 64) not working or not looking for work, as a percentage of the overall labor force.</p>\n<p>It’s true that the pandemic, which of course produced a number of factors that made working more difficult never mind dangerous, pushed the labor participation rate to a record low. But the fact that millions of American males have not been working precedes COVID-19 by decades. In fact, the participation rate for men peaked at 87.4% in October 1949 and has been dropping steadily ever since. It now stands at 67.7%.</p>\n<p>As a business journalist for a good portion of those 70-plus years, I’ve looked at thousands of charts and graphs in my life, and I have to say this one is as jaw dropping as it is vexing:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/056158b8fa7157238c3d1521dd05c02e\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"259\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Chart of the U.S. labor force participation rate for men over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve</p>\n<p>Economists, sociologists, politicians, and cable news pundits each have their pet factors to explain the groundswell of non-work. But after digging down here, I’ve concluded there are many different forces at play. That’s what I want to explore today, which is: how men can live in America without working.</p>\n<p>I’m not talking about why men have lost their jobs — factories closing, layoffs, automation, outsourcing jobs overseas, even perhaps women entering the workforce, (in fact, the participation rate by women over the same time period is way up). What I want to get at is how they’re living without holding a \"real\" job, and by that I mean doing work where one reports income to the IRS, pays taxes and Social Security, etc.</p>\n<p>It’s important to note that every man in this group has his own story. They range from mentally ill homeless men who desperately need our help, to the I’m-doing-just-fine-thank-you-very-much, retired early, and former Silicon Valley coder. And there are infinite scenarios in between those two extremes, including, for instance, the many men who have chosen to bestay-at-home dadswhile their spouses work.</p>\n<p>It’s also the case that some men in this group may be unemployed and not seeking work because they’ve given up looking just for now — perhaps waiting for COVID to abate — and will start the search again soon. Here too, society needs to help.</p>\n<p>Still, none of this explains decade after decade of falling male employment.</p>\n<p>To that end, here to my mind are seven ways men are living without working in America:</p>\n<p><b>-Unemployment insurance</b></p>\n<p>Let’s start with this one because it’s a hot button issue. Conservatives and some liberals too have made the claim that state unemployment aid, coupled with $600 a week from the CARES Act, which was rolled out in March 2020, have reduced men’s need to work. (There are actually a variety of social programs at play,spelled out nicely hereby think tank The Century Foundation, which estimates that overall these programs have pumped $800 billion in the economy.) We’ll be getting a good read on whether all this relief did suppress employment now that CARES aid ended for some 7.5 million Americans earlier this month. But as Yahoo Finance’s Denitsa Tsekova reportedhereandhere, states that ended federal aid programs early didn’t see big increases in employment. That may mean these payments really weren’t enough to live off, or not enough to live off by themselves, which speaks to men looking to a combination of sources, like under the table income or family support and possibly some savings (see below).</p>\n<p><b>-Early retirement, pensions, disability and lawsuits</b></p>\n<p>Admittedly, this is a bit of a hodgepodge. And as is the case with many of these categories, hard data is tough to come by, but it is the case that millions of men under 64 are at least partly living off of pensions and 401(k)s. This would include everything from C-suite executives to union members. And don’t forget municipal workers, who make up almost 14% of the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 6,000 public sector retirement systems in the U.S.Collectively these plans have $4.5 trillion in assets,with 14.7 million working members and 11.2 million retirees. The plans distribute $323 billion in benefits annually, and again, some to men who are younger than 64. In fact in almost two-thirds of these plans,if you started working at 25, you max out at 57, a real inducement to stop working — at least at that job of course.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53e26b293f8a939a54b78315c3375a18\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Volunteers load cars with turkeys and other food assistance for laid off Walt Disney World cast members and others at a food distribution event on December 12, 2020 in Orlando, Florida. (Photo by Paul Hennessy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)More</p>\n<p>There’s also disability insurance from the Social Security Administration that is beingpaid to some 9 million Americanswhomay receive payments many years before retirement age. That's why I am including disability here, but not plain vanilla Social Security, which you can’t receive until age 62. The maximum disability benefit amount you can receive each month is currently $3,148. (However, the average beneficiary receives about $1,277 per month, according to the law group Social Security Disability Advocates.) Overall, it looks like theSSA pays out some $130 billion in disability annually.That’s not nothing. Then there’s money paid out in medical malpractice each year, smaller true, but stillestimated to be in excess of $3 billion.And don't forgetpayments from legal settlements and class action lawsuits.</p>\n<p>You argue all day about the right or wrong when it comes to these payouts, but the fact is many of them didn’t exist, or not at this magnitude, decades ago.</p>\n<p><b>-Savings, trading stocks, and bitcoin</b></p>\n<p>Consider now men are living off savings, or from money made in the market or maybe even selling NFTs. How many is it exactly? Who knows, but quite a few for sure. First off, Americans on average do have some money in the bank. Savings as a percentage of disposable income,according to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City,hit a record high of 33% in the spring of 2020 and is still at 14%, or nearly twice as high as it was prior to the pandemic.</p>\n<p>And according to arecent survey by Northwestern Mutual,average personal savings are up over 10% compared to last year, from $65,900 last year to $73,100. Average retirement savings increased 13%, from $87,500 last year to $98,800 today. So there’s that.</p>\n<p>Next let’s look at investing — first stocks. It is not irrelevant to this narrative that the S&amp;P 500 has climbed from 2,480 on March 12, 2020 — the day after the World Health Organization declared COVID a pandemic— to 4,441 today, or almost 80%. That’s a huge gain. Much of the action of course has been retail investors and the meme stock boom, as millions of American males stuck at home with nothing to do all day for the past 18 months passed the time trading stocks. Credit Suisse estimates that since the beginning of 2020, “retail trading as a share of overall market activityhas nearly doubledfrom between 15% and 18% to over 30%,” as CNBC reported. How many men were doing this and supporting themselves? Unclear, but upstart trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) — the broker dealer of choice for many of these new investors — reported that it had22.5 million funded user accountslast month, up from 7.2 million in March of 2020. Let’s just say 15 million new accounts is quite a number.</p>\n<p>Now crypto. You can laugh all you want, but the simple fact is that theprice of bitcoinis up from $4,861 on March 12, 2000 to $47,763 today, or basically up 10X, (and remember it even hit $64,888.99 this spring). Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/809084435ffdcbc0695311d158bb7a98\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Robinhood Markets, Inc. CEO and co-founder Vlad Tenev and co-founder Baiju Bhatt pose with Robinhood signage on Wall Street after the company's IPO in New York City, U.S., July 29, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly<b>-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy</b></p>\n<p>This one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer.

They don’t have a job, and they aren’t looking for one either. One-third of all working-age men. That’s almost 30 million people!\nHow do they live? What are they doing for money? To me, this is one of the great mysteries of our time.\nI’m certainly not the first person to make note of this shocking statistic. You’ve heard people bemoaning this \"labor participation rate,\" which is simply the number of working-age men (usually counted as ages 16 to 64) not working or not looking for work, as a percentage of the overall labor force.\nIt’s true that the pandemic, which of course produced a number of factors that made working more difficult never mind dangerous, pushed the labor participation rate to a record low. But the fact that millions of American males have not been working precedes COVID-19 by decades. In fact, the participation rate for men peaked at 87.4% in October 1949 and has been dropping steadily ever since. It now stands at 67.7%.\nAs a business journalist for a good portion of those 70-plus years, I’ve looked at thousands of charts and graphs in my life, and I have to say this one is as jaw dropping as it is vexing:\nChart of the U.S. labor force participation rate for men over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve\nEconomists, sociologists, politicians, and cable news pundits each have their pet factors to explain the groundswell of non-work. But after digging down here, I’ve concluded there are many different forces at play. That’s what I want to explore today, which is: how men can live in America without working.\nI’m not talking about why men have lost their jobs — factories closing, layoffs, automation, outsourcing jobs overseas, even perhaps women entering the workforce, (in fact, the participation rate by women over the same time period is way up). What I want to get at is how they’re living without holding a \"real\" job, and by that I mean doing work where one reports income to the IRS, pays taxes and Social Security, etc.\nIt’s important to note that every man in this group has his own story. They range from mentally ill homeless men who desperately need our help, to the I’m-doing-just-fine-thank-you-very-much, retired early, and former Silicon Valley coder. And there are infinite scenarios in between those two extremes, including, for instance, the many men who have chosen to bestay-at-home dadswhile their spouses work.\nIt’s also the case that some men in this group may be unemployed and not seeking work because they’ve given up looking just for now — perhaps waiting for COVID to abate — and will start the search again soon. Here too, society needs to help.\nStill, none of this explains decade after decade of falling male employment.\nTo that end, here to my mind are seven ways men are living without working in America:\n-Unemployment insurance\nLet’s start with this one because it’s a hot button issue. Conservatives and some liberals too have made the claim that state unemployment aid, coupled with $600 a week from the CARES Act, which was rolled out in March 2020, have reduced men’s need to work. (There are actually a variety of social programs at play,spelled out nicely hereby think tank The Century Foundation, which estimates that overall these programs have pumped $800 billion in the economy.) We’ll be getting a good read on whether all this relief did suppress employment now that CARES aid ended for some 7.5 million Americans earlier this month. But as Yahoo Finance’s Denitsa Tsekova reportedhereandhere, states that ended federal aid programs early didn’t see big increases in employment. That may mean these payments really weren’t enough to live off, or not enough to live off by themselves, which speaks to men looking to a combination of sources, like under the table income or family support and possibly some savings (see below).\n-Early retirement, pensions, disability and lawsuits\nAdmittedly, this is a bit of a hodgepodge. And as is the case with many of these categories, hard data is tough to come by, but it is the case that millions of men under 64 are at least partly living off of pensions and 401(k)s. This would include everything from C-suite executives to union members. And don’t forget municipal workers, who make up almost 14% of the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 6,000 public sector retirement systems in the U.S.Collectively these plans have $4.5 trillion in assets,with 14.7 million working members and 11.2 million retirees. The plans distribute $323 billion in benefits annually, and again, some to men who are younger than 64. In fact in almost two-thirds of these plans,if you started working at 25, you max out at 57, a real inducement to stop working — at least at that job of course.\nVolunteers load cars with turkeys and other food assistance for laid off Walt Disney World cast members and others at a food distribution event on December 12, 2020 in Orlando, Florida. (Photo by Paul Hennessy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)More\nThere’s also disability insurance from the Social Security Administration that is beingpaid to some 9 million Americanswhomay receive payments many years before retirement age. That's why I am including disability here, but not plain vanilla Social Security, which you can’t receive until age 62. The maximum disability benefit amount you can receive each month is currently $3,148. (However, the average beneficiary receives about $1,277 per month, according to the law group Social Security Disability Advocates.) Overall, it looks like theSSA pays out some $130 billion in disability annually.That’s not nothing. Then there’s money paid out in medical malpractice each year, smaller true, but stillestimated to be in excess of $3 billion.And don't forgetpayments from legal settlements and class action lawsuits.\nYou argue all day about the right or wrong when it comes to these payouts, but the fact is many of them didn’t exist, or not at this magnitude, decades ago.\n-Savings, trading stocks, and bitcoin\nConsider now men are living off savings, or from money made in the market or maybe even selling NFTs. How many is it exactly? Who knows, but quite a few for sure. First off, Americans on average do have some money in the bank. Savings as a percentage of disposable income,according to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City,hit a record high of 33% in the spring of 2020 and is still at 14%, or nearly twice as high as it was prior to the pandemic.\nAnd according to arecent survey by Northwestern Mutual,average personal savings are up over 10% compared to last year, from $65,900 last year to $73,100. Average retirement savings increased 13%, from $87,500 last year to $98,800 today. So there’s that.\nNext let’s look at investing — first stocks. It is not irrelevant to this narrative that the S&P 500 has climbed from 2,480 on March 12, 2020 — the day after the World Health Organization declared COVID a pandemic— to 4,441 today, or almost 80%. That’s a huge gain. Much of the action of course has been retail investors and the meme stock boom, as millions of American males stuck at home with nothing to do all day for the past 18 months passed the time trading stocks. Credit Suisse estimates that since the beginning of 2020, “retail trading as a share of overall market activityhas nearly doubledfrom between 15% and 18% to over 30%,” as CNBC reported. How many men were doing this and supporting themselves? Unclear, but upstart trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) — the broker dealer of choice for many of these new investors — reported that it had22.5 million funded user accountslast month, up from 7.2 million in March of 2020. Let’s just say 15 million new accounts is quite a number.\nNow crypto. You can laugh all you want, but the simple fact is that theprice of bitcoinis up from $4,861 on March 12, 2000 to $47,763 today, or basically up 10X, (and remember it even hit $64,888.99 this spring). Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)\nRobinhood Markets, Inc. CEO and co-founder Vlad Tenev and co-founder Baiju Bhatt pose with Robinhood signage on Wall Street after the company's IPO in New York City, U.S., July 29, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy\nThis one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer. For example, my electrician Luis just told me he can’t get anyone to work for him anymore — they all want to get paid in cash.\n-Living off family members\nJust to take one facet,the Pew Research Center reportedlast year that the pandemic “has pushed millions of Americans, especially young adults, to move in with family members. The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading [in early 2020], surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era.

Who knows, but some. Ditto for males who have moved in with in-laws or siblings. And again, many men are choosing to stay home and take care of kids while their spouses work.\n-Illegal work\nFront and center here is selling illegal drugs.

The total value of cryptocurrencies briefly surpassed $2.5 trillion in May as a plethora of new investors jumped in, and now approximately 14% of American adults own cryptocurrencies.</p>\n<p>Cryptocurrencies are digital assets that are exchanged online on exchanges like Coinbase . Cryptocurrencies are hardly new. Bitcoin, the first and largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, was created in 2009 and has been followed by more than 7,700 others. You may have also heard of ethereum, tether, or even dogecoin, which began as a joke and now sits among the 10 largest cryptocurrencies.</p>\n<p>While some people are investing purely to speculate, others look at cryptos as a way to store value or hedge against inflation.

What are they doing for money? ","content":"<p>Almost one-third of all working-age men in America aren’t doing diddly-squat. They don’t have a job, and they aren’t looking for one either. One-third of all working-age men. That’s almost 30 million people!</p>\n<p>How do they live? What are they doing for money? To me, this is one of the great mysteries of our time.</p>\n<p>I’m certainly not the first person to make note of this shocking statistic. You’ve heard people bemoaning this \"labor participation rate,\" which is simply the number of working-age men (usually counted as ages 16 to 64) not working or not looking for work, as a percentage of the overall labor force.</p>\n<p>It’s true that the pandemic, which of course produced a number of factors that made working more difficult never mind dangerous, pushed the labor participation rate to a record low. But the fact that millions of American males have not been working precedes COVID-19 by decades. In fact, the participation rate for men peaked at 87.4% in October 1949 and has been dropping steadily ever since. It now stands at 67.7%.</p>\n<p>As a business journalist for a good portion of those 70-plus years, I’ve looked at thousands of charts and graphs in my life, and I have to say this one is as jaw dropping as it is vexing:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/056158b8fa7157238c3d1521dd05c02e\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"259\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Chart of the U.S. labor force participation rate for men over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve</p>\n<p>Economists, sociologists, politicians, and cable news pundits each have their pet factors to explain the groundswell of non-work. But after digging down here, I’ve concluded there are many different forces at play. That’s what I want to explore today, which is: how men can live in America without working.</p>\n<p>I’m not talking about why men have lost their jobs — factories closing, layoffs, automation, outsourcing jobs overseas, even perhaps women entering the workforce, (in fact, the participation rate by women over the same time period is way up). What I want to get at is how they’re living without holding a \"real\" job, and by that I mean doing work where one reports income to the IRS, pays taxes and Social Security, etc.</p>\n<p>It’s important to note that every man in this group has his own story. They range from mentally ill homeless men who desperately need our help, to the I’m-doing-just-fine-thank-you-very-much, retired early, and former Silicon Valley coder. And there are infinite scenarios in between those two extremes, including, for instance, the many men who have chosen to bestay-at-home dadswhile their spouses work.</p>\n<p>It’s also the case that some men in this group may be unemployed and not seeking work because they’ve given up looking just for now — perhaps waiting for COVID to abate — and will start the search again soon. Here too, society needs to help.</p>\n<p>Still, none of this explains decade after decade of falling male employment.</p>\n<p>To that end, here to my mind are seven ways men are living without working in America:</p>\n<p><b>-Unemployment insurance</b></p>\n<p>Let’s start with this one because it’s a hot button issue. Conservatives and some liberals too have made the claim that state unemployment aid, coupled with $600 a week from the CARES Act, which was rolled out in March 2020, have reduced men’s need to work. (There are actually a variety of social programs at play,spelled out nicely hereby think tank The Century Foundation, which estimates that overall these programs have pumped $800 billion in the economy.) We’ll be getting a good read on whether all this relief did suppress employment now that CARES aid ended for some 7.5 million Americans earlier this month. But as Yahoo Finance’s Denitsa Tsekova reportedhereandhere, states that ended federal aid programs early didn’t see big increases in employment. That may mean these payments really weren’t enough to live off, or not enough to live off by themselves, which speaks to men looking to a combination of sources, like under the table income or family support and possibly some savings (see below).</p>\n<p><b>-Early retirement, pensions, disability and lawsuits</b></p>\n<p>Admittedly, this is a bit of a hodgepodge. And as is the case with many of these categories, hard data is tough to come by, but it is the case that millions of men under 64 are at least partly living off of pensions and 401(k)s. This would include everything from C-suite executives to union members. And don’t forget municipal workers, who make up almost 14% of the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 6,000 public sector retirement systems in the U.S.Collectively these plans have $4.5 trillion in assets,with 14.7 million working members and 11.2 million retirees. The plans distribute $323 billion in benefits annually, and again, some to men who are younger than 64. In fact in almost two-thirds of these plans,if you started working at 25, you max out at 57, a real inducement to stop working — at least at that job of course.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53e26b293f8a939a54b78315c3375a18\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Volunteers load cars with turkeys and other food assistance for laid off Walt Disney World cast members and others at a food distribution event on December 12, 2020 in Orlando, Florida. (Photo by Paul Hennessy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)More</p>\n<p>There’s also disability insurance from the Social Security Administration that is beingpaid to some 9 million Americanswhomay receive payments many years before retirement age. That's why I am including disability here, but not plain vanilla Social Security, which you can’t receive until age 62. The maximum disability benefit amount you can receive each month is currently $3,148. (However, the average beneficiary receives about $1,277 per month, according to the law group Social Security Disability Advocates.) Overall, it looks like theSSA pays out some $130 billion in disability annually.That’s not nothing. Then there’s money paid out in medical malpractice each year, smaller true, but stillestimated to be in excess of $3 billion.And don't forgetpayments from legal settlements and class action lawsuits.</p>\n<p>You argue all day about the right or wrong when it comes to these payouts, but the fact is many of them didn’t exist, or not at this magnitude, decades ago.</p>\n<p><b>-Savings, trading stocks, and bitcoin</b></p>\n<p>Consider now men are living off savings, or from money made in the market or maybe even selling NFTs. How many is it exactly? Who knows, but quite a few for sure. First off, Americans on average do have some money in the bank. Savings as a percentage of disposable income,according to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City,hit a record high of 33% in the spring of 2020 and is still at 14%, or nearly twice as high as it was prior to the pandemic.</p>\n<p>And according to arecent survey by Northwestern Mutual,average personal savings are up over 10% compared to last year, from $65,900 last year to $73,100. Average retirement savings increased 13%, from $87,500 last year to $98,800 today. So there’s that.</p>\n<p>Next let’s look at investing — first stocks. It is not irrelevant to this narrative that the S&amp;P 500 has climbed from 2,480 on March 12, 2020 — the day after the World Health Organization declared COVID a pandemic— to 4,441 today, or almost 80%. That’s a huge gain. Much of the action of course has been retail investors and the meme stock boom, as millions of American males stuck at home with nothing to do all day for the past 18 months passed the time trading stocks. Credit Suisse estimates that since the beginning of 2020, “retail trading as a share of overall market activityhas nearly doubledfrom between 15% and 18% to over 30%,” as CNBC reported. How many men were doing this and supporting themselves? Unclear, but upstart trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) — the broker dealer of choice for many of these new investors — reported that it had22.5 million funded user accountslast month, up from 7.2 million in March of 2020. Let’s just say 15 million new accounts is quite a number.</p>\n<p>Now crypto. You can laugh all you want, but the simple fact is that theprice of bitcoinis up from $4,861 on March 12, 2000 to $47,763 today, or basically up 10X, (and remember it even hit $64,888.99 this spring). Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/809084435ffdcbc0695311d158bb7a98\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Robinhood Markets, Inc. CEO and co-founder Vlad Tenev and co-founder Baiju Bhatt pose with Robinhood signage on Wall Street after the company's IPO in New York City, U.S., July 29, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly<b>-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy</b></p>\n<p>This one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer. For example, my electrician Luis just told me he can’t get anyone to work for him anymore — they all want to get paid in cash.</p>\n<p><b>-Living off family members</b></p>\n<p>Just to take one facet,the Pew Research Center reportedlast year that the pandemic “has pushed millions of Americans, especially young adults, to move in with family members. The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading [in early 2020], surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era. In July, 52% of young adults resided with one or both of their parents, up from 47% in February.” How many of these individuals are males living rent free (and sharing food too), which maybe means they don’t have to work? Who knows, but some. Ditto for males who have moved in with in-laws or siblings. And again, many men are choosing to stay home and take care of kids while their spouses work.</p>\n<p><b>-Illegal work</b></p>\n<p>Front and center here is selling illegal drugs. Sadly, business looks to be booming, that is if overdoses are any sort of measure.According to the Washington Post, overdose deaths hit 93,000 last year, up a stunning 30% from 2019. Most of the overdoses were attributed to opioids; heroin, synthetic opioids like OxyContin and in particular Fentanyl. (This despite drug dealers facingsupply chain issuesduring COVID.) How many Americans are in this business and who are they? A number is almost impossible to come by here, but as for who they are,a government report on drug trafficking arrestsfrom five years ago notes that ”the majority of drug trafficking offenders were male (84.9%), the average age of these offenders at sentencing was 36 years, 70% were United States citizens (although this rate varied substantially depending on the type of drug involved), and that almost half (49.4%) of drug traffickers had little or no prior criminal history.” How big a business is selling drugs in America? Could beas much as $100 billion.I think it’s fair to say that a market that size requires many thousands of employees.</p>\n<p>What about other types of crime and criminals, everything from robbers and thieves to prostitutes and pimps? To that point there aresome 2 million people incarcerated in the U.S.right now. (We have the highest absolute number and the highest per capita on the planet, and holdsome 25% of the world's total prisoners, according to the ACLU.) Being in prison is another way of living in America without working, I guess. But not counting those locked up, how many bad guys are out there on the street? Conservatively, it has to be thousands and thousands, and speaking to this story, they're all doing their thing and not participating in the labor force.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f8f4b3e6a5aa97a10f5c7bb22dec1d7\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">ORLEANS, MASSACHUSETTS - JULY 10: A man holds onto a clamming rake while clamming at low tide July 10, 2021 in Town Cove, Orleans, Massachusetts. He filled a bushel basket of cherry stone clams. (Photo by Robert Nickelsberg/Getty Images)More<b>-Living off the land</b></p>\n<p>This would include gardening, fishing, hunting, clamming, berrying, and just general foraging. The numbers here seem to be climbing. Here for instancefrom The Guardian:</p>\n<p>“Fishing and huntinglicense sales increased 10%in California during the pandemic, reversing years of decline. Clamming has grown in popularity for several reasons: people are looking for safe activities to do outdoors, but also some are clamming for subsistence and trying to get money from selling the shellfish (which is illegal without a commercial license).”</p>\n<p>Ditto for Washington state, according to The Spokesman-Review:</p>\n<p>“From the start of the 2020 licensing year in May through Dec. 31, WDFW [Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife] sold nearly 45,000 more fishing licenses and 12,000 more hunting licenses than 2019. The number of new license holders — defined as someone who hadn’t purchased one for the previous five years — went up 16% for fishing licenses and almost 40% for hunters.”</p>\n<p>As for growing vegetables in home gardens, yes, it is up, way up too. Even before the pandemic, there were estimates thata third of American families grew vegetables.Now this,NPRreported last year:</p>\n<p>“‘We're being flooded with vegetable orders,’ says George Ball, executive chairman of the Burpee Seed Company, based in Warminster, Penn.</p>\n<p>Ball says he has noticed spikes in seed sales during bad times: the stock market crash of 1987, the dot com bubble burst of 2000, and he remembers the two oil crises of the 1970s from his childhood. But he says he has not seen a spike this large and widespread.</p>\n<p>So there you have it. It’s a whole range of ways and means, behaviors and experiences. I’m sure I missed some, too. Again, some non-working men are in dire straits and need our help. Others are living non-working lives without burdening society or others, such as a fireman on early retirement (though some argue municipal employee pensions are too high), or an investor who made a ton of money in the market and called it quits, or maybe a wilderness guy living off the land in Alaska.</p>\n<p>And some non-working men are not playing fair. Like getting paid under the table, fudging insurance claims or social programs. Some freeload off relatives. And some engage in overtly illegal behavior like boosting branded goods from chain stores to sell online or dealing heroin.</p>\n<p>I would imagine that more than a few of these men create a portfolio of sources, though I’m not sure they really think of it that way. Take for example a hypothetical guy in a rural area who lives with his grandmother rent free, (he does help her with the garden some). This guy also does some cash carpentry work, hunts for game, gets some food off his ex-wife’s WIC and helps his brother sell some weed. Can you get by this way? Some men probably are. Is this the new American way? For some men it probably is.</p>\n<p>That example perhaps, and to be sure of all of the above, I think go a long way toward explaining that chart from the beginning of the story, the one that shows the labor participation rate falling off a cliff over the past seven decades. And speaking of charts, another striking one came to mind when I was writing this, which I put here below. It shows U.S. GDP over the same time period as the labor participation rate.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0f197be5c6c11483ec906a1757293e4d\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"259\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Chart of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve</p>\n<p>Of course, the line on this GDP chart is inversely correlated with the line on the labor participation graph. And I think there is a relationship between the two. Which is to say, the wealthier our nation has become over the decades, the less men are working. Fact is there is just a ton of money sloshing around in our country. And men seem to be able to get their hands on it, whether obtained legally, borrowed, leached off of or stolen.</p>\n<p>It seems like working legally to provide for yourself in America is really just one option these days.</p>\n<p><b><i>This article was featured in a Saturday edition of the Morning Brief on September 18, 2021.

They don’t have a job, and they aren’t looking for one either. One-third of all working-age men. That’s almost 30 million people!\nHow do they live? What are they doing for money? To me, this is one of the great mysteries of our time.\nI’m certainly not the first person to make note of this shocking statistic. You’ve heard people bemoaning this \"labor participation rate,\" which is simply the number of working-age men (usually counted as ages 16 to 64) not working or not looking for work, as a percentage of the overall labor force.\nIt’s true that the pandemic, which of course produced a number of factors that made working more difficult never mind dangerous, pushed the labor participation rate to a record low. But the fact that millions of American males have not been working precedes COVID-19 by decades. In fact, the participation rate for men peaked at 87.4% in October 1949 and has been dropping steadily ever since. It now stands at 67.7%.\nAs a business journalist for a good portion of those 70-plus years, I’ve looked at thousands of charts and graphs in my life, and I have to say this one is as jaw dropping as it is vexing:\nChart of the U.S. labor force participation rate for men over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve\nEconomists, sociologists, politicians, and cable news pundits each have their pet factors to explain the groundswell of non-work. But after digging down here, I’ve concluded there are many different forces at play. That’s what I want to explore today, which is: how men can live in America without working.\nI’m not talking about why men have lost their jobs — factories closing, layoffs, automation, outsourcing jobs overseas, even perhaps women entering the workforce, (in fact, the participation rate by women over the same time period is way up). What I want to get at is how they’re living without holding a \"real\" job, and by that I mean doing work where one reports income to the IRS, pays taxes and Social Security, etc.\nIt’s important to note that every man in this group has his own story. They range from mentally ill homeless men who desperately need our help, to the I’m-doing-just-fine-thank-you-very-much, retired early, and former Silicon Valley coder. And there are infinite scenarios in between those two extremes, including, for instance, the many men who have chosen to bestay-at-home dadswhile their spouses work.\nIt’s also the case that some men in this group may be unemployed and not seeking work because they’ve given up looking just for now — perhaps waiting for COVID to abate — and will start the search again soon. Here too, society needs to help.\nStill, none of this explains decade after decade of falling male employment.\nTo that end, here to my mind are seven ways men are living without working in America:\n-Unemployment insurance\nLet’s start with this one because it’s a hot button issue. Conservatives and some liberals too have made the claim that state unemployment aid, coupled with $600 a week from the CARES Act, which was rolled out in March 2020, have reduced men’s need to work. (There are actually a variety of social programs at play,spelled out nicely hereby think tank The Century Foundation, which estimates that overall these programs have pumped $800 billion in the economy.) We’ll be getting a good read on whether all this relief did suppress employment now that CARES aid ended for some 7.5 million Americans earlier this month. But as Yahoo Finance’s Denitsa Tsekova reportedhereandhere, states that ended federal aid programs early didn’t see big increases in employment. That may mean these payments really weren’t enough to live off, or not enough to live off by themselves, which speaks to men looking to a combination of sources, like under the table income or family support and possibly some savings (see below).\n-Early retirement, pensions, disability and lawsuits\nAdmittedly, this is a bit of a hodgepodge. And as is the case with many of these categories, hard data is tough to come by, but it is the case that millions of men under 64 are at least partly living off of pensions and 401(k)s. This would include everything from C-suite executives to union members. And don’t forget municipal workers, who make up almost 14% of the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are some 6,000 public sector retirement systems in the U.S.Collectively these plans have $4.5 trillion in assets,with 14.7 million working members and 11.2 million retirees. The plans distribute $323 billion in benefits annually, and again, some to men who are younger than 64. In fact in almost two-thirds of these plans,if you started working at 25, you max out at 57, a real inducement to stop working — at least at that job of course.\nVolunteers load cars with turkeys and other food assistance for laid off Walt Disney World cast members and others at a food distribution event on December 12, 2020 in Orlando, Florida. (Photo by Paul Hennessy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)More\nThere’s also disability insurance from the Social Security Administration that is beingpaid to some 9 million Americanswhomay receive payments many years before retirement age. That's why I am including disability here, but not plain vanilla Social Security, which you can’t receive until age 62. The maximum disability benefit amount you can receive each month is currently $3,148. (However, the average beneficiary receives about $1,277 per month, according to the law group Social Security Disability Advocates.) Overall, it looks like theSSA pays out some $130 billion in disability annually.That’s not nothing. Then there’s money paid out in medical malpractice each year, smaller true, but stillestimated to be in excess of $3 billion.And don't forgetpayments from legal settlements and class action lawsuits.\nYou argue all day about the right or wrong when it comes to these payouts, but the fact is many of them didn’t exist, or not at this magnitude, decades ago.\n-Savings, trading stocks, and bitcoin\nConsider now men are living off savings, or from money made in the market or maybe even selling NFTs. How many is it exactly? Who knows, but quite a few for sure. First off, Americans on average do have some money in the bank. Savings as a percentage of disposable income,according to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City,hit a record high of 33% in the spring of 2020 and is still at 14%, or nearly twice as high as it was prior to the pandemic.\nAnd according to arecent survey by Northwestern Mutual,average personal savings are up over 10% compared to last year, from $65,900 last year to $73,100. Average retirement savings increased 13%, from $87,500 last year to $98,800 today. So there’s that.\nNext let’s look at investing — first stocks. It is not irrelevant to this narrative that the S&P 500 has climbed from 2,480 on March 12, 2020 — the day after the World Health Organization declared COVID a pandemic— to 4,441 today, or almost 80%. That’s a huge gain. Much of the action of course has been retail investors and the meme stock boom, as millions of American males stuck at home with nothing to do all day for the past 18 months passed the time trading stocks. Credit Suisse estimates that since the beginning of 2020, “retail trading as a share of overall market activityhas nearly doubledfrom between 15% and 18% to over 30%,” as CNBC reported. How many men were doing this and supporting themselves? Unclear, but upstart trading platform Robinhood (HOOD) — the broker dealer of choice for many of these new investors — reported that it had22.5 million funded user accountslast month, up from 7.2 million in March of 2020. Let’s just say 15 million new accounts is quite a number.\nNow crypto. You can laugh all you want, but the simple fact is that theprice of bitcoinis up from $4,861 on March 12, 2000 to $47,763 today, or basically up 10X, (and remember it even hit $64,888.99 this spring). Back to Robinhood, which according to The New York Times, also reported last month that “revenue from cryptocurrency trading fees totaled $233 million, a nearly 50-fold jump from $5 million a year earlier.” (And those are just fees off the trades, mind you.) Bottom line: Folks have made money here. (Of course these guys should be paying taxes on all those stock and crypto gains.)\nRobinhood Markets, Inc.

REUTERS/Andrew Kelly-Working for cash, aka the under-the-table economy\nThis one is very tough to measure, too.A study by the Federal Reserve of St. Louisestimates that the average size of the “informal economy” in developed countries is 13% of GDP. Honestly, that could be off by many percentage points, but just to give you a ballpark, GDP in the U.S. this year is about $22 trillion. So 13% of that is $2.86 trillion. As it turns out, $2 trillion-plus, is a number that has been thrown around quite a bit (hereandherefor instance) when it comes to estimating the size of the cash economy in the U.S. Even if half that money is paid out to women, that still leaves, say, $1 trillion dollars being made by men in this country off the books. That’s a big chunk of change. Are more people than ever working for cash these days? Again, another question that’s impossible to answer. I would bet it’s not fewer. For example, my electrician Luis just told me he can’t get anyone to work for him anymore — they all want to get paid in cash.\n-Living off family members\nJust to take one facet,the Pew Research Center reportedlast year that the pandemic “has pushed millions of Americans, especially young adults, to move in with family members. The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading [in early 2020], surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era. In July, 52% of young adults resided with one or both of their parents, up from 47% in February.” How many of these individuals are males living rent free (and sharing food too), which maybe means they don’t have to work? Who knows, but some. Ditto for males who have moved in with in-laws or siblings. And again, many men are choosing to stay home and take care of kids while their spouses work.\n-Illegal work\nFront and center here is selling illegal drugs. Sadly, business looks to be booming, that is if overdoses are any sort of measure.According to the Washington Post, overdose deaths hit 93,000 last year, up a stunning 30% from 2019. Most of the overdoses were attributed to opioids; heroin, synthetic opioids like OxyContin and in particular Fentanyl. (This despite drug dealers facingsupply chain issuesduring COVID.) How many Americans are in this business and who are they? A number is almost impossible to come by here, but as for who they are,a government report on drug trafficking arrestsfrom five years ago notes that ”the majority of drug trafficking offenders were male (84.9%), the average age of these offenders at sentencing was 36 years, 70% were United States citizens (although this rate varied substantially depending on the type of drug involved), and that almost half (49.4%) of drug traffickers had little or no prior criminal history.” How big a business is selling drugs in America? Could beas much as $100 billion.I think it’s fair to say that a market that size requires many thousands of employees.\nWhat about other types of crime and criminals, everything from robbers and thieves to prostitutes and pimps? To that point there aresome 2 million people incarcerated in the U.S.right now. (We have the highest absolute number and the highest per capita on the planet, and holdsome 25% of the world's total prisoners, according to the ACLU.) Being in prison is another way of living in America without working, I guess. But not counting those locked up, how many bad guys are out there on the street? Conservatively, it has to be thousands and thousands, and speaking to this story, they're all doing their thing and not participating in the labor force.\nORLEANS, MASSACHUSETTS - JULY 10: A man holds onto a clamming rake while clamming at low tide July 10, 2021 in Town Cove, Orleans, Massachusetts. He filled a bushel basket of cherry stone clams. (Photo by Robert Nickelsberg/Getty Images)More-Living off the land\nThis would include gardening, fishing, hunting, clamming, berrying, and just general foraging. The numbers here seem to be climbing. Here for instancefrom The Guardian:\n“Fishing and huntinglicense sales increased 10%in California during the pandemic, reversing years of decline. Clamming has grown in popularity for several reasons: people are looking for safe activities to do outdoors, but also some are clamming for subsistence and trying to get money from selling the shellfish (which is illegal without a commercial license).”\nDitto for Washington state, according to The Spokesman-Review:\n“From the start of the 2020 licensing year in May through Dec. 31, WDFW [Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife] sold nearly 45,000 more fishing licenses and 12,000 more hunting licenses than 2019. The number of new license holders — defined as someone who hadn’t purchased one for the previous five years — went up 16% for fishing licenses and almost 40% for hunters.”\nAs for growing vegetables in home gardens, yes, it is up, way up too. Even before the pandemic, there were estimates thata third of American families grew vegetables.Now this,NPRreported last year:\n“‘We're being flooded with vegetable orders,’ says George Ball, executive chairman of the Burpee Seed Company, based in Warminster, Penn.\nBall says he has noticed spikes in seed sales during bad times: the stock market crash of 1987, the dot com bubble burst of 2000, and he remembers the two oil crises of the 1970s from his childhood. But he says he has not seen a spike this large and widespread.\nSo there you have it. It’s a whole range of ways and means, behaviors and experiences. I’m sure I missed some, too. Again, some non-working men are in dire straits and need our help. Others are living non-working lives without burdening society or others, such as a fireman on early retirement (though some argue municipal employee pensions are too high), or an investor who made a ton of money in the market and called it quits, or maybe a wilderness guy living off the land in Alaska.\nAnd some non-working men are not playing fair. Like getting paid under the table, fudging insurance claims or social programs. Some freeload off relatives. And some engage in overtly illegal behavior like boosting branded goods from chain stores to sell online or dealing heroin.\nI would imagine that more than a few of these men create a portfolio of sources, though I’m not sure they really think of it that way. Take for example a hypothetical guy in a rural area who lives with his grandmother rent free, (he does help her with the garden some). This guy also does some cash carpentry work, hunts for game, gets some food off his ex-wife’s WIC and helps his brother sell some weed. Can you get by this way? Some men probably are. Is this the new American way? For some men it probably is.\nThat example perhaps, and to be sure of all of the above, I think go a long way toward explaining that chart from the beginning of the story, the one that shows the labor participation rate falling off a cliff over the past seven decades. And speaking of charts, another striking one came to mind when I was writing this, which I put here below. It shows U.S. GDP over the same time period as the labor participation rate.\nChart of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product over time, courtesy of the St. Louis Federal Reserve\nOf course, the line on this GDP chart is inversely correlated with the line on the labor participation graph. And I think there is a relationship between the two. Which is to say, the wealthier our nation has become over the decades, the less men are working. Fact is there is just a ton of money sloshing around in our country. And men seem to be able to get their hands on it, whether obtained legally, borrowed, leached off of or stolen.\nIt seems like working legally to provide for yourself in America is really just one option these days.\nThis article was featured in a Saturday edition of the Morning Brief on September 18, 2021.

Square</h2>\n<table border=\"1\">\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Analyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:</td>\n   <td>31%</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Digital banking is a real threat to the traditional banking industry because of its lower costs to acquire users, and fintech company <b>Square</b> (NYSE:SQ) is among those leading the charge. The company is growing its Cash App, which enables users to store and send money.&nbsp;Now with 40 million monthly users, Cash App has a long growth runway ahead of it. Square is seeking to complement its business with new features over time, such as Buy Now and Pay Later via <b>Afterpay</b>.</p>\n<p>The Afterpay acquisition will give it access to 16 million consumers located both inside and outside of the United States. It could give the company momentum for expansion of Cash App in new markets, especially those where consumers are underbanked, like in emerging markets. Square reported net income of $574 million for Q2 2021 which was an increase of 89% year over year. In addition, the company has experienced revenue growth of 188% over the past three years. With more opportunities to expand on the horizon, this stock could be a great place for tech investors to look.</p>\n<h2>2. Tesla</h2>\n<table border=\"1\">\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Analyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:</td>\n   <td>37%</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p><b>Tesla</b>'s (NASDAQ:TSLA) Model S pioneered the electric vehicle industry a decade ago. It's continuing to ramp up its deliveries years later, and Tesla could continue to grow through its other ventures, including solar energy and autonomous driving. The electric car market is growing more than 20% per year and the market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 34% by 2027. So Tesla's leadership (79% market share in the U.S.) in the category could translate to ongoing growth over the coming years.</p>\n<p>Tesla's revenue has grown 50% per year on average over the past five years, and the business is thriving. The Cybertruck hasn't yet entered production, and its presence could further disrupt legacy automakers, especially domestic competitors who rely on pickup trucks as their most profitable models. As the company reported net income of $1 billion for the second quarter which was nearly a 1,000% gain over last year, investors have plenty to look forward to.</p>\n<h2>3. Netflix</h2>\n<table border=\"1\">\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Analyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:</td>\n   <td>30%</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Young investors might have a hard time believing that there was no such thing as streaming just over a decade ago. <b>Netflix</b> (NASDAQ:NFLX) transitioned from mail-order DVDs to streaming content in 2007, and the rest is history. Today, Netflix makes much of its own content and is expanding outside of the United States, while getting into gaming, which could continue to drive its growth moving forward.</p>\n<p>The company has spent years investing to build its own content, no longer relying on third-party partners to license it. Netflix has begun to generate robust operating cash flow, $713 million over the first six months of this year, despite investing a whopping $7 billion in new content. This high rate of investment creates a competitive moat that few others can afford to spend to compete with. Since Netflix has reported net income growth of 128% and revenue growth of 58% over the past three years, the company's content investment seems worthwhile.</p>\n<h2>4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a></h2>\n<table border=\"1\">\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Analyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:</td>\n   <td>22%</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Social media is now <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the primary ways people interact, maintain relationships, and make friends. <b>Facebook</b> (NASDAQ:FB) not only owns its namesake social media platform but other leading networks such as Instagram and messaging app WhatsApp. Altogether, more than 2.8 billion people use a Facebook product each month. That massive number of users creates substantial revenue streams for the company through advertising. Over the past five years, the company has reported revenue growth of 211% and net income growth of 185%, showing the billions of users have translated into serious cash.</p>\n<p>Facebook's long-term frontier has become the metaverse, which Mark Zuckerberg has personally stressed the importance of to the company's future. The company already owns virtual reality hardware company Oculus and is dedicating a full staff to working on its metaverse business. The metaverse could be worth as much as $280 billion by 2025, and Facebook wants to make sure its advertising presence is felt within it.</p>\n<h2>5. Shopify</h2>\n<table border=\"1\">\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td>Analyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:</td>\n   <td>27%</td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Small businesses need to compete in e-commerce to thrive in today's environment, and <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP) helps them do it by providing the software for any merchant to own and operate an online store. More than 1.7 million merchants use Shopify's platform, and it cumulatively drives more web traffic than Amazon. There are tens of millions of merchants around the world, providing a huge addressable market for Shopify, which could continue growing for years.

Technology is evolving, and traditionally non-technical industries are being infiltrated by innovation as time goes by. High-quality technology stocks can provide robust investment returns over the long term.\nBut tech stocks can be tricky, often unprofitable, and innovation from competition remains a constant threat. Consider these five high-quality tech stocks enjoying \"big picture\" growth trends as potential building blocks for your portfolio.\nImage Source: Getty Images.\n1. Square\n\n\n\nAnalyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:\n31%\n\n\n\nDigital banking is a real threat to the traditional banking industry because of its lower costs to acquire users, and fintech company Square (NYSE:SQ) is among those leading the charge. The company is growing its Cash App, which enables users to store and send money. Now with 40 million monthly users, Cash App has a long growth runway ahead of it. Square is seeking to complement its business with new features over time, such as Buy Now and Pay Later via Afterpay.\nThe Afterpay acquisition will give it access to 16 million consumers located both inside and outside of the United States. It could give the company momentum for expansion of Cash App in new markets, especially those where consumers are underbanked, like in emerging markets. Square reported net income of $574 million for Q2 2021 which was an increase of 89% year over year. In addition, the company has experienced revenue growth of 188% over the past three years. With more opportunities to expand on the horizon, this stock could be a great place for tech investors to look.\n2. Tesla\n\n\n\nAnalyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:\n37%\n\n\n\nTesla's (NASDAQ:TSLA) Model S pioneered the electric vehicle industry a decade ago. It's continuing to ramp up its deliveries years later, and Tesla could continue to grow through its other ventures, including solar energy and autonomous driving. The electric car market is growing more than 20% per year and the market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 34% by 2027. So Tesla's leadership (79% market share in the U.S.) in the category could translate to ongoing growth over the coming years.\nTesla's revenue has grown 50% per year on average over the past five years, and the business is thriving. The Cybertruck hasn't yet entered production, and its presence could further disrupt legacy automakers, especially domestic competitors who rely on pickup trucks as their most profitable models. As the company reported net income of $1 billion for the second quarter which was nearly a 1,000% gain over last year, investors have plenty to look forward to.\n3. Netflix\n\n\n\nAnalyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:\n30%\n\n\n\nYoung investors might have a hard time believing that there was no such thing as streaming just over a decade ago. Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) transitioned from mail-order DVDs to streaming content in 2007, and the rest is history. Today, Netflix makes much of its own content and is expanding outside of the United States, while getting into gaming, which could continue to drive its growth moving forward.\nThe company has spent years investing to build its own content, no longer relying on third-party partners to license it. Netflix has begun to generate robust operating cash flow, $713 million over the first six months of this year, despite investing a whopping $7 billion in new content. This high rate of investment creates a competitive moat that few others can afford to spend to compete with. Since Netflix has reported net income growth of 128% and revenue growth of 58% over the past three years, the company's content investment seems worthwhile.\n4. Facebook\n\n\n\nAnalyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:\n22%\n\n\n\nSocial media is now one of the primary ways people interact, maintain relationships, and make friends. Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) not only owns its namesake social media platform but other leading networks such as Instagram and messaging app WhatsApp. Altogether, more than 2.8 billion people use a Facebook product each month. That massive number of users creates substantial revenue streams for the company through advertising. Over the past five years, the company has reported revenue growth of 211% and net income growth of 185%, showing the billions of users have translated into serious cash.\nFacebook's long-term frontier has become the metaverse, which Mark Zuckerberg has personally stressed the importance of to the company's future. The company already owns virtual reality hardware company Oculus and is dedicating a full staff to working on its metaverse business. The metaverse could be worth as much as $280 billion by 2025, and Facebook wants to make sure its advertising presence is felt within it.\n5. Shopify\n\n\n\nAnalyst estimated 3-5 year earnings per share growth rate:\n27%\n\n\n\nSmall businesses need to compete in e-commerce to thrive in today's environment, and Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) helps them do it by providing the software for any merchant to own and operate an online store. More than 1.7 million merchants use Shopify's platform, and it cumulatively drives more web traffic than Amazon. There are tens of millions of merchants around the world, providing a huge addressable market for Shopify, which could continue growing for years. That addressable market has already shown growth with the company reporting revenue of $1 billion in the second quarter, up 57% year over year.\nAs of this summer, Shopify is now powering e-commerce functions within TikTok, the video-based social media platform with one billion monthly active users. E-commerce and social media have begun to integrate in recent years, and Shopify's new presence on TikTok could \"move the needle\" on growing that 1.7 million merchant base. This growth could be the tip of the iceberg for this company in the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":510,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":828115433,"gmtCreate":1633864000735,"gmtModify":1633864000735,"author":{"id":"3579498036403181","authorId":"3579498036403181","name":"caius","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579498036403181","authorIdStr":"3579498036403181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!","listText":"Great!","text":"Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/828115433","repostId":"1194780749","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1194780749","pubTimestamp":1633828304,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1194780749?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-10 09:11","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2022 Could Be A Great Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1194780749","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Economies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked.We could have a great year in 2022 if our government could get its act together.We have concentrated on the producers that will benefit from a robust global economy and tech companies benefitting from the digitalization boom.Even though we are rapidly putting the delta variant in the rear-view mirror, financial markets are struggling due to a lack of leadership in D.C.

Our government is dysfunctional, and we need leadership, especially now, to handle the myriad of domestic and foreign issues facing all of us. We will muddle through and finally get a much-needed traditional infrastructure bill and possibly a scaled-down $2 trillion social spending bill along with lower-than-expected punitive tax increases, this year but 2022 could be a great year, not just a very good year, if only we worked together.</p>\n<p>We have not altered our view that S&amp;P earnings could exceed $220/share in 2022 and $235/share in 2023 as operating margins hit nearly 14% in 2023, up from 11.5% in 2019. Why? Corporations have learned to do more with less during the pandemic; shortages and supply line issues will ease, and substantial increases in technology spending will go a long way, offsetting higher labor costs while improving operations/efficiencies on all levels. Powell will be right that higher inflationary pressures will be transitory, but it may take longer to normalize. We will continue to have accommodative fiscal and monetary policies in 2022. Not a bad market scenario, so use corrections as opportunities to add to your positions. So, as I've said before, invest, don't trade.</p>\n<p>Economies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked. Domestic cases have declined 23% and deaths 13% over the 14 days and 17% and 14%, respectively, globally. More than 6.43 billion doses have been administered globally across 184 countries at a daily rate of 28.7 million doses per day. In the U.S., 398 million doses have been given so far at an elevated rate of 931,983 doses per day.</p>\n<p>We still see over 75% of the global population vaccinated within six months and herd immunity sooner. Pfizer(NYSE:PFE)filed Thursday with the FDA its vaccine for children ages 5-11, bringing shots for all school-age children closer, which will boost the economy as parents can return to work. We expect that both Pfizer and Merck's(NYSE:MRK)filings with the FDA will be approved well before year-end. All good news!</p>\n<p>The Fed is itching to start tapering, ending its extraordinary monetary support, which is no longer needed as the economy is on firm footing, and it appears that the Delta variant is subsiding. Unfortunately, Powell and the Fed have been called out for oversight over board members' trading. Two governors have already resigned, and we expect one more may leave shortly. Tapering will probably begin before year-end if the next employment report improves from September and be finished by the third quarter of 2022.</p>\n<p>Again, tapering is NOT tightening, and we do not expect the Fed to start hiking the funds' rate until early 2023. The \"real\" funds' rate will be negative for some time which is NOT tightening at all. By the way, we disagree with Elizabeth Warren's criticism of Chairman Powell and hope that he is renominated next year. The bottom line is that the Fed will remain your friend for at least another 18 months. Don't fight the Fed!</p>\n<p>We are so frustrated by what is happening in D.C. It is all about politics, no surprise, and not about doing what is best for this country. Why do we always have to go to the brink before action is taken? That is precisely what happened this week when the Republicans caved and offered a two-month short-term debt limit extension letting the Dems off the hook from going the route of reconciliation. It passed Thursday night. Daily negotiations continue for the massive social infrastructure program. It will be much smaller than initially proposed, closer to $2 trillion rather than $3.5 trillion. We expect the individual and corporate tax increases to be much more reasonable than initially proposed, which is a clear positive for the economy and financial markets.</p>\n<p>The domestic economy is recovering from the Delta variant, which penalized growth during the summer months. The areas hit most over the summer; travel, dining, and leisure are coming back strongly, as evidenced by the recovery in the high-frequency data.</p>\n<p>Other recent data points include: initial jobless claims fell more than expected to 326,000; the index of consumer sentiment rose in September to 72.9, current economic conditions increased to 80.1, and consumer expectations rose to 68.1; the September Manufacturing PMI increased to 61.1, new orders to 66.7, employment up to 50.1, supplier deliveries to 73.4 and prices index increased to 81.2; the services index grew for the 15th month hitting 60.1, new orders at 63.2, employment at 53.7 and supplier deliveries at 69.6; new orders for manufactured goods increased 1.2% while shipments rose 0.1% and unfilled orders increased 1.0%; and the trade deficit widened to $73.3 billion as imports increased more rapidly than exports due to the strength of the domestic economy.</p>\n<p>Growth and profitability would be even more robust if not for shortages and supply line issues. But that will turn around in 2022 and be a big plus. The September employment data was disappointing with only 194,000 jobs created. The private sector did better adding 317,000 jobs while the public sector lost 123,000 jobs. Interestingly the unemployment rate fell to 4.8% which is the Fed's year-end target as the participation rate declined to 61.6. Hourly earnings rose 0.6% and are up 4.3% in the year through August. The Fed will most likely wait to see the next employment report before beginning tapering.</p>\n<p>The Eurozone economy has finally exceeded pre-covid levels, with most of the 20 indices that we monitor accelerating in recent weeks as cases/deaths have declined meaningfully. Shortages and supply line issues have hampered production while increasing inflationary pressures and won't ease until mid-2022. Energy costs are a real problem and may penalize growth next year. Unfortunately, OPEC opted against a big output boost lifting production by only 400,000 barrels/day, which will not be enough to limit further price increases, especially if we have a cold winter. And natural gas prices have gone through the roof, which will crimp consumer spending and hurt corporate operating margins.</p>\n<p>The global economy is improving as the number of covid cases, and deaths have peaked. Growth would even be more robust if not for shortages and supply line issues, but that will reverse as we move through 2022.</p>\n<p>Investment Conclusions</p>\n<p>Thursday, there was a massive sigh of relief when Congress agreed to extend the debt limit two months, ending the stalemate. We expect the Dems to coalesce around a roughly $2 trillion social infrastructure bill that will permit passage of the much-needed $1 trillion traditional infrastructure bill. What is a government? Fiscal policy will remain stimulative for years to come.</p>\n<p>Then we have a monetary policy. We expect the Fed to remain accommodative for a few more years. We do expect tapering to begin before year-end if the November employment report improves from the last one, but we do&nbsp;<b>not</b>&nbsp;see a rate hike until 2023, and even then, the \"real\" funds' rate will be negative, which is not restrictive at all.</p>\n<p>Shortages and supply line issues have played havoc on production and profitability for many industries/companies around the world in 2021, but this will reverse as we move through 2022, creating opportunities for investors willing to look over the valley.</p>\n<p>The bottom line is that we could have a great year in 2022 if our government could get its act together. The key remains keeping the coronavirus out of the picture, so we must vaccinate all the unvaccinated.</p>\n<p>While we have not seen many changes in our portfolio over the last few months, we have concentrated on the producers that will benefit from a robust global economy and tech companies benefitting from the digitalization boom. We recently added some financials and energy companies as we expect the yield curve to steepen more than previously anticipated. Higher energy prices are immediately ahead as demand outstrips supply. Next year, the big story will be the significant increase in dividends and buybacks well above the historical trend.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>2022 Could Be A Great Year</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\">\n2022 Could Be A Great Year\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-10 09:11 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459137-2022-could-be-a-great-year><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nEconomies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked.\nWe could have a great year in 2022 if our government could get its act together.\nWe have concentrated on the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459137-2022-could-be-a-great-year\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459137-2022-could-be-a-great-year","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1194780749","content_text":"Summary\n\nEconomies are reaccelerating as the number of Delta cases and death have peaked.\nWe could have a great year in 2022 if our government could get its act together.\nWe have concentrated on the producers that will benefit from a robust global economy and tech companies benefitting from the digitalization boom.\n\nEven though we are rapidly putting the delta variant in the rear-view mirror, financial markets are struggling due to a lack of leadership in D.C.

Unfortunately, Powell and the Fed have been called out for oversight over board members' trading. Two governors have already resigned, and we expect one more may leave shortly. Tapering will probably begin before year-end if the next employment report improves from September and be finished by the third quarter of 2022.\nAgain, tapering is NOT tightening, and we do not expect the Fed to start hiking the funds' rate until early 2023. The \"real\" funds' rate will be negative for some time which is NOT tightening at all. By the way, we disagree with Elizabeth Warren's criticism of Chairman Powell and hope that he is renominated next year. The bottom line is that the Fed will remain your friend for at least another 18 months. Don't fight the Fed!\nWe are so frustrated by what is happening in D.C. It is all about politics, no surprise, and not about doing what is best for this country. Why do we always have to go to the brink before action is taken? That is precisely what happened this week when the Republicans caved and offered a two-month short-term debt limit extension letting the Dems off the hook from going the route of reconciliation. It passed Thursday night. Daily negotiations continue for the massive social infrastructure program. It will be much smaller than initially proposed, closer to $2 trillion rather than $3.5 trillion. We expect the individual and corporate tax increases to be much more reasonable than initially proposed, which is a clear positive for the economy and financial markets.\nThe domestic economy is recovering from the Delta variant, which penalized growth during the summer months. The areas hit most over the summer; travel, dining, and leisure are coming back strongly, as evidenced by the recovery in the high-frequency data.\nOther recent data points include: initial jobless claims fell more than expected to 326,000; the index of consumer sentiment rose in September to 72.9, current economic conditions increased to 80.1, and consumer expectations rose to 68.1; the September Manufacturing PMI increased to 61.1, new orders to 66.7, employment up to 50.1, supplier deliveries to 73.4 and prices index increased to 81.2; the services index grew for the 15th month hitting 60.1, new orders at 63.2, employment at 53.7 and supplier deliveries at 69.6; new orders for manufactured goods increased 1.2% while shipments rose 0.1% and unfilled orders increased 1.0%; and the trade deficit widened to $73.3 billion as imports increased more rapidly than exports due to the strength of the domestic economy.\nGrowth and profitability would be even more robust if not for shortages and supply line issues. But that will turn around in 2022 and be a big plus. The September employment data was disappointing with only 194,000 jobs created. The private sector did better adding 317,000 jobs while the public sector lost 123,000 jobs. Interestingly the unemployment rate fell to 4.8% which is the Fed's year-end target as the participation rate declined to 61.6. Hourly earnings rose 0.6% and are up 4.3% in the year through August. The Fed will most likely wait to see the next employment report before beginning tapering.\nThe Eurozone economy has finally exceeded pre-covid levels, with most of the 20 indices that we monitor accelerating in recent weeks as cases/deaths have declined meaningfully. Shortages and supply line issues have hampered production while increasing inflationary pressures and won't ease until mid-2022. Energy costs are a real problem and may penalize growth next year. Unfortunately, OPEC opted against a big output boost lifting production by only 400,000 barrels/day, which will not be enough to limit further price increases, especially if we have a cold winter. And natural gas prices have gone through the roof, which will crimp consumer spending and hurt corporate operating margins.\nThe global economy is improving as the number of covid cases, and deaths have peaked. Growth would even be more robust if not for shortages and supply line issues, but that will reverse as we move through 2022.\nInvestment Conclusions\nThursday, there was a massive sigh of relief when Congress agreed to extend the debt limit two months, ending the stalemate. We expect the Dems to coalesce around a roughly $2 trillion social infrastructure bill that will permit passage of the much-needed $1 trillion traditional infrastructure bill. What is a government? Fiscal policy will remain stimulative for years to come.\nThen we have a monetary policy. We expect the Fed to remain accommodative for a few more years. We do expect tapering to begin before year-end if the November employment report improves from the last one, but we do not see a rate hike until 2023, and even then, the \"real\" funds' rate will be negative, which is not restrictive at all.\nShortages and supply line issues have played havoc on production and profitability for many industries/companies around the world in 2021, but this will reverse as we move through 2022, creating opportunities for investors willing to look over the valley.\nThe bottom line is that we could have a great year in 2022 if our government could get its act together. The key remains keeping the coronavirus out of the picture, so we must vaccinate all the unvaccinated.\nWhile we have not seen many changes in our portfolio over the last few months, we have concentrated on the producers that will benefit from a robust global economy and tech companies benefitting from the digitalization boom. We recently added some financials and energy companies as we expect the yield curve to steepen more than previously anticipated. Higher energy prices are immediately ahead as demand outstrips supply. Next year, the big story will be the significant increase in dividends and buybacks well above the historical trend.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":386,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":885533328,"gmtCreate":1631802065064,"gmtModify":1632806103615,"author":{"id":"3579498036403181","authorId":"3579498036403181","name":"caius","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579498036403181","authorIdStr":"3579498036403181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmmmm","listText":"Hmmmm","text":"Hmmmm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/885533328","repostId":"2167287516","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2167287516","pubTimestamp":1631773899,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2167287516?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-16 14:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Keeps Selling Tesla, Unloading $62 Million of Shares","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2167287516","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Cathie Wood’s exchange-traded funds sold more Tesla Inc. shares, taking the total value of the electric vehicle maker’s stock they’ve offloaded this month to about $266 million.The ARK Innovation and ARK Next Generation Internet ETFs sold over 81,600 shares in Tesla on Wednesday, according to ARK Investment’s daily trading update.

For those with a cast-iron constitution, however, finding 10-baggers isn't as difficult as you might imagine.</p>\n<p>With that in mind, here are three disruptive growth stocks that have the potential to turn $100,000 into $1 million.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646122%2Ftwo-family-members-sitting-on-a-couch-watching-television.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Roku: A digital advertising powerhouse</h2>\n<p>When investors consider <b>Roku</b> (NASDAQ:ROKU), they no doubt conjure up images of streaming video dominance, and with good reason. The company surpassed <b>Amazon</b>'s (NASDAQ:AMZN) Fire TV in 2020 as the streaming platform with the most users. More importantly, Roku's viewer base has been growing more quickly, even as Fire TV's growth was decelerating. Roku's active accounts accelerated by 39% year over year, while Amazon's growth slowed to 25%.</p>\n<p>Yet Roku's streaming platform is just a small part of the equation and a means to an end. The company uses its platform to serve up digital advertising, which is by far the largest part of its business.</p>\n<p>Roku's platform segment uses a three-pronged attack to continue to expand its ecosystem. The Roku Channel serves up fan-favorite content and the company keeps all the advertising that appears on its home-grown channel.</p>\n<p>It also developed a state-of-the-art connected TV (CTV) operating system (OS) from the ground up that it licenses to smart TV manufacturers so they don't have to reinvent the wheel. As a result, roughly 38% of all smart TVs sold in the U.S. last year contained the Roku OS, while it had a 31% market share in Canada. This strategy was so successful that Roku is expanding into new international markets, including the U.K., Germany, and Latin America, among others.</p>\n<p>Finally, the company controls 30% of the advertising space for the streaming apps and channels that show ads on its platform, while also getting a cut from streaming services when customers sign up via its platform.</p>\n<p>The platform segment and the resulting digital advertising account for the bulk of Roku's revenue, and business is booming. Last year, platform revenue grew 81% year over year, helping push gross profit up 63%.</p>\n<p>Yet that could be just the beginning. Roku has a total addressable market that's projected to grow to $769 billion by 2024. When viewed through the lens of the company's revenue of $1.78 billion last year, the magnitude of the opportunity comes clearly into focus.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646122%2Ftwo-young-professional-looking-at-a-laptop-in-a-data-center.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>2. MongoDB: The changing face of the database</h2>\n<p>When the original database was first designed, most information fit easily into rows and columns. Nowadays, however, data has evolved and consists of entire documents, video and audio files, photos, social media posts, and much more. Those working with legacy databases struggle to make it all work.</p>\n<p>That's where <b>MongoDB</b> (NASDAQ:MDB) comes in. The company hosts a state-of-the-art cloud-based platform that empowers users to pull and store data from a variety of non-traditional sources. This also provides new flexibility to developers, giving them greater leeway than ever before to design the next great app.</p>\n<p>MongoDB provides a free-to-use offering that lets customers get a feel for the ease of use and utility of its product, encouraging them to upgrade to its fully managed database-as-a-service (DBaaS) product, Atlas, which will propel the company to its next phase of growth.</p>\n<p>The company's financial results illustrate its success. Second-quarter revenue grew 44% year over year, but revenue from Atlas grew 83%, and accounted for 56% of MongoDB's total sales. That's impressive performance for a product that didn't exist five years ago. It's important to note that the company has yet to swing to profitability as it continues to invest heavily to ensure future growth.</p>\n<p>MongoDB's customer acquisition continues to propel its financial results. The company's customer base grew and surpassed 29,000, up 44% year over year. Perhaps more importantly, existing customers are spending more with each passing year, as evidenced by MongoDB's net AR expansion rate of 120%. Put another way, existing customers spent 20% more this year than they did the year before. The company now has 1,126 customers that spend $100,000 or more, an increase of 37%.</p>\n<p>Finally, MongoDB has a massive addressable market. CEO Dev Ittycheria cites data from IDC that the company operates in \"one of the largest and fastest-growing markets in all of software,\" with a total addressable market that's expected to top $97 billion by 2023. Considering MongoDB posted fiscal 2021 revenue of just $590 million, it has a long runway of growth ahead.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646122%2Fperson-electronically-signing-a-document-esignature.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>3. DocuSign: (E) sign here</h2>\n<p>Fairly often, an investing opportunity is the result of a disconnect between what a company does and what investors \"think\" it does. Such is the case with <b>DocuSign</b> (NASDAQ:DOCU)</p>\n<p>When it comes to electronic signature (e-signature) technology, DocuSign is the industry leader. The company has a dominant 70% share in the large and growing digital signature market. What investors may not know, however, is that e-signature is just the <i>beginning</i> of DocuSign's opportunity, as CEO Dan Springer is quick to point out.</p>\n<p>\"Typically, e-signature is the first step that many customers take on their broader digital transformation journey with us,\" Springer said on a recent earnings call. \"So from a financial point of view, we believe this surge in e-signature adoption bodes well for future Agreement Cloud expansion.\" The digital signature acts as a funnel to introduce businesses to DocuSign's&nbsp;other services.</p>\n<p>The Agreement Cloud debuted in 2019, offering a laundry list of products and integrations that helps organizations digitally transform the archaic systems surrounding contracts and agreements. It provides cloud-based tools to prepare, sign, act on, and manage agreements. Users use the one-click consent feature online, automate the process to authenticate government-issued IDs, and manage the life cycle of agreements from concept to implementation.</p>\n<p>The company's financial results show that this strategy is bearing fruit. Last year, DocuSign's revenue grew 49% year over year and its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) grew 208%.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the most exciting aspect of the Agreement Cloud is its effect on DocuSign's total addressable market, which management estimates has doubled to more than $50 billion.

The rarest of these game-changers is the 10-bagger, an investment that increases to 10 times its original value.\nFinding stocks that can grow many times over isn't for the faint of heart, as investors must be prepared to withstand the inevitable peaks and valleys that come as a stock travels the road to greatness. For those with a cast-iron constitution, however, finding 10-baggers isn't as difficult as you might imagine.\nWith that in mind, here are three disruptive growth stocks that have the potential to turn $100,000 into $1 million.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Roku: A digital advertising powerhouse\nWhen investors consider Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU), they no doubt conjure up images of streaming video dominance, and with good reason. The company surpassed Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Fire TV in 2020 as the streaming platform with the most users. More importantly, Roku's viewer base has been growing more quickly, even as Fire TV's growth was decelerating. Roku's active accounts accelerated by 39% year over year, while Amazon's growth slowed to 25%.\nYet Roku's streaming platform is just a small part of the equation and a means to an end. The company uses its platform to serve up digital advertising, which is by far the largest part of its business.\nRoku's platform segment uses a three-pronged attack to continue to expand its ecosystem. The Roku Channel serves up fan-favorite content and the company keeps all the advertising that appears on its home-grown channel.\nIt also developed a state-of-the-art connected TV (CTV) operating system (OS) from the ground up that it licenses to smart TV manufacturers so they don't have to reinvent the wheel. As a result, roughly 38% of all smart TVs sold in the U.S. last year contained the Roku OS, while it had a 31% market share in Canada. This strategy was so successful that Roku is expanding into new international markets, including the U.K., Germany, and Latin America, among others.\nFinally, the company controls 30% of the advertising space for the streaming apps and channels that show ads on its platform, while also getting a cut from streaming services when customers sign up via its platform.\nThe platform segment and the resulting digital advertising account for the bulk of Roku's revenue, and business is booming. Last year, platform revenue grew 81% year over year, helping push gross profit up 63%.\nYet that could be just the beginning. Roku has a total addressable market that's projected to grow to $769 billion by 2024. When viewed through the lens of the company's revenue of $1.78 billion last year, the magnitude of the opportunity comes clearly into focus.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n2. MongoDB: The changing face of the database\nWhen the original database was first designed, most information fit easily into rows and columns. Nowadays, however, data has evolved and consists of entire documents, video and audio files, photos, social media posts, and much more. Those working with legacy databases struggle to make it all work.\nThat's where MongoDB (NASDAQ:MDB) comes in. The company hosts a state-of-the-art cloud-based platform that empowers users to pull and store data from a variety of non-traditional sources. This also provides new flexibility to developers, giving them greater leeway than ever before to design the next great app.\nMongoDB provides a free-to-use offering that lets customers get a feel for the ease of use and utility of its product, encouraging them to upgrade to its fully managed database-as-a-service (DBaaS) product, Atlas, which will propel the company to its next phase of growth.\nThe company's financial results illustrate its success. Second-quarter revenue grew 44% year over year, but revenue from Atlas grew 83%, and accounted for 56% of MongoDB's total sales. That's impressive performance for a product that didn't exist five years ago. It's important to note that the company has yet to swing to profitability as it continues to invest heavily to ensure future growth.\nMongoDB's customer acquisition continues to propel its financial results. The company's customer base grew and surpassed 29,000, up 44% year over year. Perhaps more importantly, existing customers are spending more with each passing year, as evidenced by MongoDB's net AR expansion rate of 120%. Put another way, existing customers spent 20% more this year than they did the year before. The company now has 1,126 customers that spend $100,000 or more, an increase of 37%.\nFinally, MongoDB has a massive addressable market. CEO Dev Ittycheria cites data from IDC that the company operates in \"one of the largest and fastest-growing markets in all of software,\" with a total addressable market that's expected to top $97 billion by 2023. Considering MongoDB posted fiscal 2021 revenue of just $590 million, it has a long runway of growth ahead.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n3. DocuSign: (E) sign here\nFairly often, an investing opportunity is the result of a disconnect between what a company does and what investors \"think\" it does. Such is the case with DocuSign (NASDAQ:DOCU)\nWhen it comes to electronic signature (e-signature) technology, DocuSign is the industry leader. The company has a dominant 70% share in the large and growing digital signature market. What investors may not know, however, is that e-signature is just the beginning of DocuSign's opportunity, as CEO Dan Springer is quick to point out.\n\"Typically, e-signature is the first step that many customers take on their broader digital transformation journey with us,\" Springer said on a recent earnings call. \"So from a financial point of view, we believe this surge in e-signature adoption bodes well for future Agreement Cloud expansion.\" The digital signature acts as a funnel to introduce businesses to DocuSign's other services.\nThe Agreement Cloud debuted in 2019, offering a laundry list of products and integrations that helps organizations digitally transform the archaic systems surrounding contracts and agreements. It provides cloud-based tools to prepare, sign, act on, and manage agreements. Users use the one-click consent feature online, automate the process to authenticate government-issued IDs, and manage the life cycle of agreements from concept to implementation.\nThe company's financial results show that this strategy is bearing fruit. Last year, DocuSign's revenue grew 49% year over year and its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) grew 208%.\nPerhaps the most exciting aspect of the Agreement Cloud is its effect on DocuSign's total addressable market, which management estimates has doubled to more than $50 billion. Given that DocuSign generated revenue of just $1.5 billion last year, this illustrates the tremendous opportunity that remains.\nData by YCharts.\nWorth paying up for\nEach of these growth stocks has been a long-term winner, but still has a market cap of between $30 billion and $50 billion -- giving them room to grow 10-fold in the coming years, as long as they continue along their current trajectory.\nThere's another thing these companies have in common: Each has something of a hefty price tag when measured using traditional valuation metrics. MongoDB, DocuSign, and Roku are selling for 39, 28, and 19 times sales, respectively -- when a good price-to-sales ratio is generally between 1 and 2.\nThat said, the killer combination of industry leadership, impressive, ongoing execution, and large addressable markets has convinced investors that these stocks are worth paying up for. Considering the breadth and length of the opportunities ahead for each company, now is the time to buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":591,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":883864908,"gmtCreate":1631233479804,"gmtModify":1632883800954,"author":{"id":"3579498036403181","authorId":"3579498036403181","name":"caius","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579498036403181","authorIdStr":"3579498036403181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ooo","listText":"Ooo","text":"Ooo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/883864908","repostId":"2166426123","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2166426123","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":1631228094,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2166426123?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-10 06:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street ends down after jobless claims hit 18-month low","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2166426123","media":"Reuters","summary":"Sept 9  - Wall Street ended lower on Thursday after weekly jobless claims fell to a near 18-month low, allaying fears of a slowing economic recovery, but also stoking worries the Fed could move sooner than expected to scale back its accommodative policies.The Labor Department said initial claims for state unemployment benefits dropped 35,000 to a seasonally adjusted 310,000 for the week ended Sept. 4, the lowest level since mid-March 2020.

Today, because of the jobs claims report, everyone is buying cyclical stocks,\" said Jay Hatfield, chief executive of Infrastructure Capital Management in New York. “We see it as a rangebound market, between 4,400 and 4,600 (on the S&P 500).”\nInvestors have become more worried in recent sessions after a recent monthly jobs report showed a slowdown in U.S. hiring, suggesting the economic recovery may be losing steam faster than expected. Also dragging on sentiment has been uncertainty about when the U.S. Federal Reserve's will scale back massive measures enacted last year to shield the economy from the coronavirus pandemic.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.43% to end at 34,879.38 points, while the S&P 500 lost 0.46% to 4,493.28.\nThe Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.25% to 15,248.25.\nLululemon Athletica soared 10% after providing a strong annual forecast, as demand for its yoga pants remains strong despite the easing of coronavirus restrictions.\nReports that Beijing slowed down approval for all new online video games sent shares of U.S.-listed gaming stocks Activision Blizzard Inc, Electronic Art Inc, and Take-Two Interactive Software Inc down more than 1%.\nDigital Realty slid 5% after the data center REIT announced a public offering of 6.25 million shares.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 9.3 billion shares, compared with the 9.1 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.03-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.12-to-1 ratio favored advancers.\nThe S&P 500 posted 29 new 52-week highs and 1 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 67 new highs and 38 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187549917,"gmtCreate":1623760204839,"gmtModify":1634028847682,"author":{"id":"3579498036403181","authorId":"3579498036403181","name":"caius","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579498036403181","authorIdStr":"3579498036403181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bitcoin!","listText":"Bitcoin!","text":"Bitcoin!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/187549917","repostId":"2143735752","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143735752","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":1623750480,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2143735752?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15 17:48","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"What you need to know to start investing in cryptocurrency right now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143735752","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"From Robinhood to SoFi Invest, Coinbase to Gemini to eToro, here are some of the ways to invest in c","content":"<p>From Robinhood to SoFi Invest, Coinbase to Gemini to eToro, here are some of the ways to invest in crypto -- and advice on whether you should dive in.</p>\n<p>MarketWatch has highlighted these products and services because we think readers will find them useful.

Ether, the second-largest token, fell almost 18 per cent before paring losses.\nSeveral online reports attributed the plunge to speculation the US Treasury may crack down on money laundering that's carried out through digital assets.\n\n\n\nBitcoin hit a record high of US$64,869.78 last week ahead of the debut trade for the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global on the Nasdaq on Wednesday. The original crypto coin, bitcoin is valued at more than US$1 trillion after a more than 800 per cent surge in the past year.\nGrowing mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies has spurred bitcoin's rally, as well as lifted other tokens to record highs. Interest in crypto went on the rise again after companies from PayPal to Square started enabling transactions in bitcoin on their systems, and Wall Street firms like Morgan Stanley began providing access to the tokens to some of the wealthiest clients.\nThat's despite lingering concerns over their volatility and usefulness as a method of payment. Dogecoin, a token created as a joke and which has been boosted by the likes of Elon Musk and Mark Cuban, rallied more than 110 per cent on Friday before dropping the next day. Demand was so brisk for the token that investors trying to trade it on Robinhood crashed the site, the online exchange said in a blog post on Friday.\n\n\n\n\nGovernments are inspecting risks around the sector more closely as the investor base widens.\nFederal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell last week said Bitcoin \"is a little bit like gold\" in that it's more a vehicle for speculation than making payments. European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde in January took aim at bitcoin's role in facilitating criminal activity, saying the cryptocurrency has been enabling \"funny business.\"\nTurkey's central bank banned the use of cryptocurrencies as a form of payment from April 30, saying the level of anonymity behind the digital tokens brings the risk of \"non-recoverable\" losses. India will propose a law that bans cryptocurrencies and fines anyone trading or holding such assets, Reuters reported in March, citing an unidentified senior government official with direct knowledge of the plan.\nCrypto firms are beefing up their top ranks to shape the emerging regulatory environment and tackle lingering skepticism about digital tokens. Bitcoin's most ardent proponents see it as a modern-day store of value and inflation hedge, while others fear a speculative bubble is building.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":118,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
