For US customers aged 60 and above, searches on Airbnb for summer travel rose by more than 60% between February and March.</p>\n<p>The company is also ready for more customers to use Airbnb for longer-term stays as they take advantage of greater acceptance of remote work. It said that nearly a quarter of stays last quarter were for 28 days or more, up 14% from 2019. Shares are down slightly in premarket trading.</p>\n<p>DoorDash: People are still ordering lots of food delivery even as restaurants open back up for traditional dining. DoorDash reported a 198% jump in revenue last quarter to $1.1 billion even as it dealt with a shortage of workers, and increased its full-year outlook.</p>\n<p>\"As markets continued reopening and in-store dining increased across the US, the impact to our order volume was smaller than we expected, which contributed to strong performance in the quarter,\" the company said, though it cautioned that may have been partially attributable to stimulus checks. Shares are up almost 9% in premarket trading.</p>\n<p>Disney: Streaming has carried Disney through the pandemic, with Disney+ growing to more than 100 million subscribers. Yet the biggest star in Disney's media universe appears to be shining a little less bright, sending shares down 4%.</p>\n<p>The company said Thursday that Disney+ now has 103.6 million subscribers, below the 110 million Wall Street was expecting. That's forced investors to wonder: Is that because people are getting vaccinated and stepping away from streaming? Netflix also reported sluggish subscription growth last quarter.</p>\n<p>Down but not out: Disney said it remains on track to reach its long-term subscriber goals despite the apparent slowdown. It's betting that as the pandemic eases, it will be able to produce more movies and shows, helping to bring in new customers.</p>\n<p>Whether it's right will become clearer in the months ahead, which will pose the true test of whether people actually ditch their sweatpants, get out of the house and shake up the economy once again.</p>\n<p><b>It could get easier to get a credit card without a credit score</b></p>\n<p>For years, if you didn't have a credit score it was extremely difficult to get a credit card or certain types of loans. But a new plan among some of the nation's largest banks may help Americans without traditional credit histories get approved.</p>\n<p>Ten banks — including JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC) and U.S. Bancorp (USB) — have tentatively agreed to a plan to share data like bank account deposits and bill payment activity to help qualify borrowers without traditional credit histories, according to the Wall Street Journal.</p>\n<p>The push for financial institutions to come to a data sharing agreement came from a program run by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The OCC has confirmed there is a plan, but the details of the agreement among the banks still need to be worked out.</p>\n<p>Should the proposed arrangement go through, it would mean that if you don't have a credit score but you have a bank account at Wells Fargo, for example, you can use that financial history to help you get a credit card with another bank, like JPMorgan Chase.</p>\n<p>\"This will give millions of Americans the opportunity to access credit that's essential to building wealth — buying a home, starting a business, or financing education,\" Trish Wexler, a spokesperson for JPMorgan Chase, told CNN Business.</p>\n<p>The backstory: There are currently 53 million people without a credit score, according to the Fair Isaac Corporation, the creator of FICO credit scores. These consumers, who are disproportionately lower income and people of color, face higher borrowing costs because they're forced to turn to products like payday loans.</p>\n<p>Banks and lenders refer to those without credit history as \"credit invisible.\" This group can include young people or recent immigrants, as well as people who haven't used credit in a long time or who have lost their access due to financial difficulties.</p>\n<p>The business angle: Big banks may also be eager to revise their policies as online upstarts chip away at demand for their products.</p>\n<p>\"Some of this cooperation among the biggest banks may be a bit of reaction to smaller banks and fintech companies infringing on their space,\" said Matt Schulz, chief industry analyst at LendingTree.</p>\n<p><b>Target will temporarily stop selling trading cards amid frenzy</b></p>\n<p>Target (TGT) has announced that it will stop selling trading cards in its stores following a violent dispute at one of its locations — a sign of just how overheated the market for collectibles has become.</p>\n<p>The details: Last week, a Target in Wisconsin was locked down after a man was physically assaulted by four others over sports trading cards.</p>\n<p>\"The safety of our guests and our team is our top priority,\" Target said in a statement. \"Out of an abundance of caution, we've decided to temporarily suspend the sale of MLB, NFL, NBA and Pokémon trading cards within our stores, effective [Friday].\"</p>\n<p>The cards will still be available online, the company said.</p>\n<p>Remember: The value of trading cards has skyrocketed in recent months during the Covid-19 pandemic. That's grabbed interest from both amateur and professional investors looking to cash in on spectacular returns.</p>\n<p>Target previously was limiting card purchases to just one item a day, saying that guests were lining up overnight to get their hands on hot items, per CNN affiliate WISN.</p>\n<p>Walmart (WMT), for its part, said it will keep selling cards in stores for now.</p>\n<p>\"We are determining what, if any, changes are needed to meet customer demand while ensuring a safe and enjoyable shopping experience,\" a spokesperson said in a statement.</p>\n<p><b>Up next</b></p>\n<p>Data on US retail sales, import and export prices and industrial production arrives at 8:30 a.m. ET.</p>\n<p>Coming next week: Home Depot (HD) and Lowe's (LOW) report earnings as the housing market booms.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

For US customers aged 60 and above, searches on Airbnb for summer travel rose by more than 60% between February and March.\nThe company is also ready for more customers to use Airbnb for longer-term stays as they take advantage of greater acceptance of remote work. It said that nearly a quarter of stays last quarter were for 28 days or more, up 14% from 2019. Shares are down slightly in premarket trading.\nDoorDash: People are still ordering lots of food delivery even as restaurants open back up for traditional dining. DoorDash reported a 198% jump in revenue last quarter to $1.1 billion even as it dealt with a shortage of workers, and increased its full-year outlook.\n\"As markets continued reopening and in-store dining increased across the US, the impact to our order volume was smaller than we expected, which contributed to strong performance in the quarter,\" the company said, though it cautioned that may have been partially attributable to stimulus checks. Shares are up almost 9% in premarket trading.\nDisney: Streaming has carried Disney through the pandemic, with Disney+ growing to more than 100 million subscribers. Yet the biggest star in Disney's media universe appears to be shining a little less bright, sending shares down 4%.\nThe company said Thursday that Disney+ now has 103.6 million subscribers, below the 110 million Wall Street was expecting. That's forced investors to wonder: Is that because people are getting vaccinated and stepping away from streaming? Netflix also reported sluggish subscription growth last quarter.\nDown but not out: Disney said it remains on track to reach its long-term subscriber goals despite the apparent slowdown. It's betting that as the pandemic eases, it will be able to produce more movies and shows, helping to bring in new customers.\nWhether it's right will become clearer in the months ahead, which will pose the true test of whether people actually ditch their sweatpants, get out of the house and shake up the economy once again.\nIt could get easier to get a credit card without a credit score\nFor years, if you didn't have a credit score it was extremely difficult to get a credit card or certain types of loans. But a new plan among some of the nation's largest banks may help Americans without traditional credit histories get approved.\nTen banks — including JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC) and U.S. Bancorp (USB) — have tentatively agreed to a plan to share data like bank account deposits and bill payment activity to help qualify borrowers without traditional credit histories, according to the Wall Street Journal.\nThe push for financial institutions to come to a data sharing agreement came from a program run by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The OCC has confirmed there is a plan, but the details of the agreement among the banks still need to be worked out.\nShould the proposed arrangement go through, it would mean that if you don't have a credit score but you have a bank account at Wells Fargo, for example, you can use that financial history to help you get a credit card with another bank, like JPMorgan Chase.\n\"This will give millions of Americans the opportunity to access credit that's essential to building wealth — buying a home, starting a business, or financing education,\" Trish Wexler, a spokesperson for JPMorgan Chase, told CNN Business.\nThe backstory: There are currently 53 million people without a credit score, according to the Fair Isaac Corporation, the creator of FICO credit scores. These consumers, who are disproportionately lower income and people of color, face higher borrowing costs because they're forced to turn to products like payday loans.\nBanks and lenders refer to those without credit history as \"credit invisible.\" This group can include young people or recent immigrants, as well as people who haven't used credit in a long time or who have lost their access due to financial difficulties.\nThe business angle: Big banks may also be eager to revise their policies as online upstarts chip away at demand for their products.\n\"Some of this cooperation among the biggest banks may be a bit of reaction to smaller banks and fintech companies infringing on their space,\" said Matt Schulz, chief industry analyst at LendingTree.\nTarget will temporarily stop selling trading cards amid frenzy\nTarget (TGT) has announced that it will stop selling trading cards in its stores following a violent dispute at one of its locations — a sign of just how overheated the market for collectibles has become.\nThe details: Last week, a Target in Wisconsin was locked down after a man was physically assaulted by four others over sports trading cards.\n\"The safety of our guests and our team is our top priority,\" Target said in a statement. \"Out of an abundance of caution, we've decided to temporarily suspend the sale of MLB, NFL, NBA and Pokémon trading cards within our stores, effective [Friday].\"\nThe cards will still be available online, the company said.\nRemember: The value of trading cards has skyrocketed in recent months during the Covid-19 pandemic.

It’s perhaps most famously illustrated by the stock-market adage, “sell in May and go away,,” which refers to the historical tendency for the stock market to perform better from November through April than from May through October.</p>\n<p>As deGraaf indicated, such seasonal factors typically aren’t viewed as sufficient in themselves to justify making trading calls.</p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average,S&amp;P 500&nbsp;and Nasdaq Composite&nbsp;pulled back Tuesday after finishing at record levels in the previous session.

SEBASTIEN SALOM-GOMIS/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE/GETTY IMAGES\nIt’s the most unfavorable time of the year when it comes to stock-market “seasonality”, and while that’s usually not enough to dictate market calls, it’s worth paying attention to, a top Wall Street chart watcher warned on Wednesday.\n“We are now standing at the weakest point in market seasonality for the next three months,” said Jeff deGraaf, founder of Renaissance Macro Research, in a Thursday note, referring to the chart tracking seasonal 3-month forward returns below:\nRENAISSANCE MACRO\n“The data goes back to 1928 and is rarely a sufficient catalyst to make a call, but with breadth divergences, elevated sentiment, and peak-data we suspect seasonal patterns will be more typical than not,” he wrote.\nSeasonality refers to the tendency of markets to perform better or worse during certain periods of the year. It’s perhaps most famously illustrated by the stock-market adage, “sell in May and go away,,” which refers to the historical tendency for the stock market to perform better from November through April than from May through October.\nAs deGraaf indicated, such seasonal factors typically aren’t viewed as sufficient in themselves to justify making trading calls.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average,S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite pulled back Tuesday after finishing at record levels in the previous session. Stocks were putting in a mixed performance on Wednesday.\nSo what does he expect the next three months to look like?\n“It’s likely to be a readjustment period, rotational and important to pay attention to relative strength changes,” he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":134,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127628545,"gmtCreate":1624846912987,"gmtModify":1633948031810,"author":{"id":"3581738574656138","authorId":"3581738574656138","authorIdStr":"3581738574656138","name":"victorchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6956fe8619a628c2db9e1c2e265981c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581738574656138"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍😁","listText":"👍😁","text":"👍😁","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/127628545","repostId":"2146007118","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146007118","pubTimestamp":1624826996,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2146007118?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-28 04:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"June jobs report, Consumer confidence: What to know this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146007118","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This week's packed slate of economic data reports will include an update on the labor market and new data on consumer confidence, offering fresh looks at the pace and perception of the COVID-19 recovery for many Americans.On Friday, the Labor Department will release its June jobs report.

This means that Apple will likely take most control of hardware and software that goes into the car, but not so much about the production side of it.</p>\n<p>Indeed, there has been some news about apotential agreementbetween Apple and<b>Hyundai-Kia</b>(OTCPK:HYMPY) for the production of the Apple Car, probably in the carmaker’s assembly plant in West Point, Georgia. However, these discussions have reportedly been terminated and also there have been rumors about a potential agreement with<b>Magna International</b>(MGA) and LG for the production of the Apple Car, but so far, this still seems to be in discussion.</p>\n<p>More recently, there has been somenews regarding the battery, with a potential deal with Chinese producers in the making. Reportedly, Apple is in discussions with<b>BYD</b>(OTCPK:BYDDY) and CATL for the production of electric batteries, with building U.S. manufacturing facilities in the U.S. a condition to reach an agreement.</p>\n<p>Apple intends to make the battery a key distinctive factor of the Apple Car over competitors, favoring lithium iron phosphate batteries, instead of lithium-ion, as they are cheaper to build because they don’t use nickel or cobalt. Therefore, it is very important to select a supplier with experience in this field that has the capacity to build with good quality, something that these Chinese suppliers already have.</p>\n<p>From a technological standpoint, this is where Apple most likely can have some competitive advantage over traditional original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and<b>Tesla</b>(TSLA), with a likely deep integration with its iOS software.</p>\n<p>This means that from an ‘ecosystem’ perspective, the Apple Car may make sense, given that in the future, it is expected that cars will drive by themselves and people will spend much of their time in the car using infotainment or other electronic devices for entertainment. Obviously, this is something that may take a while to happen as it requires a ‘full driving car’ capability, which would be a significant leap forward compared to what current autonomous driving systems can accomplish.</p>\n<p>If Apple can indeed reach such a level of self-driving capabilities, it may be the first to offer a robotaxi service which would be important in the future mobility market, even though it does not necessarily mean a competitive advantage over other tech/auto companies.

If demand is not there for an Apple Car, this means that the company will lose billions of dollars in this project, which could instead have been used elsewhere. The automotive industry has some good examples of how things can turn out badly, like the<b>Volkswagen</b>(OTCPK:VWAGY) Phaeton model in which the German carmaker wanted to enter the luxury market, but haslost about $1 billionin this model alone.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25796c6ab6e9dc77fd3202621ee961da\" tg-width=\"283\" tg-height=\"338\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source: Wikipedia</i></p>\n<p>Even though Apple has an excellent consumer brand globally, it is not exactly the same thing to sell $1,500 smartphones and $100,000 cars. Thus, there is a significant risk for Apple that consumers may continue to prefer a Tesla, Audi(OTCPK:AUDVF), BMW(OTCPK:BMWYY), or Mercedes rather than an Apple-branded car in the high-end to luxury segment, just like it happened with the VW Phaeton.</p>\n<p>If an Apple Car does not reach enough sales volume, it means that most likely Apple will lose a good part of the money it has invested in the car’s development. It is not possible to know how much Apple is spending on research &amp; development (R&amp;D) related to the Apple Car project, but certainly, it is already spending billions per year. If the Apple Car eventually does not go ahead, this spending will not be possible to fully monetize. On the other hand, it may lead to a more advanced autonomous driving system than competitors and Apple may sell it to other carmakers, at least monetizing some part of its investment.</p>\n<p>Even assuming that the car is successful and has good sales volumes, this is a project that is expected to generate below-average profitability for Apple, being therefore a questionable path for the company over the long term.</p>\n<p>This may happen because the car industry’s profitability is not impressive, and compared to Apple’s business segments, an Apple Car should have among the lowest gross margins.In the last year, Apple’s gross margin was 38.2%, with the Products segment reporting a gross margin of 31.5% while Services had a gross margin of 66%.</p>\n<p>In the automotive business, Tesla has a gross margin of about 21%, while the German premium carmakers have gross margins between 15-20%, thus an Apple Car should not have a much different gross margin. This will clearly be a relatively low-margin product for Apple, being completely contrary to its recent strategy to push growth in the Services segment that has above-average profitability.</p>\n<p>However, the Apple Car most likely will compete with high-end models, like the Tesla Model S, and most likely Apple will not want to become a mass-market carmaker in the foreseeable future, which means that unit sales should be somewhat limited even if the car is successful.</p>\n<p>It is difficult to forecast how many cars Apple will be able to sell per year, but assuming 150,000 units per year in the first years and an average selling price of about $100,000, this will generate some $15 billion in sales per year. Considering that Apple generated about $275 billion in revenues last year, this shows that an Apple Car should have a limited impact on the company’s financial figures and a weight of less than 5% of its total revenues.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Apple is a great company and historically innovation has been one of its key strengths, a situation that has changed in recent years as the company has struggled to offer new products that make a real impact. An Apple Car seems to make some sense from an ‘ecosystem’ perspective, and if Apple is able to reach full autonomous driving capabilities, it will be ahead of competition.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, from a financial perceptive, this is not so much compelling because it requires significant investments and the automotive industry has much lower profitability than the rest of its business. Apple is a great company, but it doesn’t need to do everything and an Apple Car seems to be a project with a risk-reward profile that is more geared to the downside as it requires big financial commitments and returns may be lower than for its other products.</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>Apple: Does It Make Sense To Enter The Car Industry?</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\">\nApple: Does It Make Sense To Enter The Car Industry?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 15:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4436127-apple-car-does-it-make-sense><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple is a great company, but has struggled to truly innovate in recent years.\nAn Apple Car is increasingly expected to be its next ‘big thing’, but there are considerable risks.\nFrom a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4436127-apple-car-does-it-make-sense\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4436127-apple-car-does-it-make-sense","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1128236138","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple is a great company, but has struggled to truly innovate in recent years.\nAn Apple Car is increasingly expected to be its next ‘big thing’, but there are considerable risks.\nFrom a technological perspective, it may make sense to produce a car, but from a financial perspective, it is not so much compelling.\n\nApple(AAPL) has been struggling to bring innovative products over recent years and much expectation has been created about its Apple Car project.

Apple is a great company, but it doesn’t need to do everything and an Apple Car seems to be a project with a risk-reward profile that is more geared to the downside as it requires big financial commitments and returns may be lower than for its other products.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":153,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":153741219,"gmtCreate":1625053872831,"gmtModify":1633945426782,"author":{"id":"3581738574656138","authorId":"3581738574656138","authorIdStr":"3581738574656138","name":"victorchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6956fe8619a628c2db9e1c2e265981c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581738574656138"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/153741219","repostId":"2147857298","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":166288136,"gmtCreate":1624012083125,"gmtModify":1634024150489,"author":{"id":"3581738574656138","authorId":"3581738574656138","authorIdStr":"3581738574656138","name":"victorchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6956fe8619a628c2db9e1c2e265981c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581738574656138"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/166288136","repostId":"2144226637","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2144226637","pubTimestamp":1624001400,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2144226637?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-18 15:30","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Microsoft plans massive China expansion in Asia-wide cloud push","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144226637","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"(BLOOMBERG) - Microsoft plans to add four new data centres within China by early 2022 in a wider eff","content":"<div>\n<p>(BLOOMBERG) - Microsoft plans to add four new data centres within China by early 2022 in a wider effort to expand its service capacity across Asia, according to people familiar with its strategy who ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/microsoft-plans-massive-china-expansion-in-asia-wide-cloud-push\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Redmond, Washington-based tech giant already has six data centres in the country, operated by local partner 21Vianet, and now seeks to capitalise on a global surge in demand for internet services during the pandemic.\nA Microsoft spokesman declined to comment.\nThe rapid growth is driven by Chinese businesses, slow to digitise in years past, now migrating to the cloud. New regulations, including a sweeping set of data security edicts coming into effect in September, are also prompting domestic and foreign enterprises to shift to local data management and boosting IT spending. The cloud market in China is expected to grow to US$46 billion in 2023, according to a government white paper cited by Microsoft.\nLike Apple, Microsoft is expanding data capabilities within China in concert with a local partner, anticipating a boom in data storage and management needs. But it will be going head to head with Alibaba Group Holding and Huawei Technologies, the two domestic leaders in providing cloud infrastructure.\nMicrosoft can count on the maturity and ubiquity of its cloud services. Its Azure enterprise offering enables customers to host data and run applications in the cloud while Office 365 delivers internet-based versions of its familiar word processing, spreadsheet and collaboration programs. The company said its planned northern China expansion in 2022 would \"effectively double\" its intelligent cloud capacity in the country in the coming years.\nThe Redmond firm's commercial cloud sales in the quarter that ended March 31 rose 33 per cent to US$17.7 billion. In that same period, the company reported US$6 billion in capital expenditures and forecast it will lay out an even larger sum in the current quarter. It does not break out cloud earnings by geography.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":44,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":118975041,"gmtCreate":1622716660483,"gmtModify":1634098847659,"author":{"id":"3581738574656138","authorId":"3581738574656138","authorIdStr":"3581738574656138","name":"victorchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6956fe8619a628c2db9e1c2e265981c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581738574656138"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/118975041","repostId":"1192697639","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192697639","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1622703096,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1192697639?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-03 14:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"BlackBerry Overtakes AMC To Become Top WallStreetBets Interest","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192697639","media":"Benzinga","summary":"BlackBerry Limited continues to see increased interest from retail investors and has now overtaken A","content":"<p><b>BlackBerry Limited</b>&nbsp;continues to see increased interest from retail investors and has now overtaken&nbsp;<b>AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc.</b>&nbsp;to emerge as the most-mentioned stock on Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets forum.</p>\n<p><b>What Happened</b>: Canada-based tech company BlackBerry had 7,957 mentions on the Reddit forum during the last 24 hours, data from Quiver Quantitative showed.</p>\n<p>In comparison, movie theatre chain AMC Entertainment was talked about 7,834 times during the same period.

Tuesday, three speculative names with high short interest are jumping higher. Shares of space tourism company<b>Virgin Galactic Holdings</b>(NYSE:SPCE), electric vehicle hopeful<b>Nikola</b>(NASDAQ:NKLA), and hydrogen fuel cell maker<b>Bloom Energy</b>(NYSE:BE)all jumped Tuesday. As of 3:35 p.m. EDT:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Virgin Galactic was up 9.2%</li>\n <li>Nikola was up 7.7%</li>\n <li>Bloom Energy was up 4.5%</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>So what</b></p>\n<p>With its share price trading around $40, it's notable that the July 16, 2021 $100 call options on Virgin Galactic had some of the highest implied volatility of all equity options Tuesday, according to Yahoo! Finance. Along with trading volume already more than double the 60-day daily average, this implies traders are hoping shares surge more than 150% to record highs in just the next three weeks.</p>\n<p>Part of the thinking of traders in Virgin Galactic call options may be that high short interest in the stock could set shares up to move higher. As of late May, 28% of the public share float was sold short. Retail traders likely are hoping for ashort squeezesimilar to what occurred in other meme stocks. Similarly, Nikola and Bloom Energy had a respective 32% and 12% of their floats sold short, according to data from MarketWatch.</p>\n<p><b>Now what</b></p>\n<p>Each of these stocks is speculative, and Virgin Galactic and Nikola aren't yet even bringing in revenue. Nothing of note was announced by these companies Tuesday to explain the stock movement. Nikola did file a Securities and Exchange Commission statement registering more than 18 million shares for potential sale. But that was related to capital it recently raised through a private deal, and any proceeds from the newly registered shares would be going to the stockholder, and not the company.</p>\n<p>Investors may be interested in Bloom Energy Tuesday because of a quarterly financial release from fellow hydrogen fuel cell technology company<b>Plug Power</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:PLUG).That report was a mix of strong sales growthoffset by continued net losses from that company.

Tuesday, three speculative names with high short interest are jumping higher. Shares of space tourism companyVirgin Galactic Holdings(NYSE:SPCE), electric vehicle hopefulNikola(NASDAQ:NKLA), and hydrogen fuel cell makerBloom Energy(NYSE:BE)all jumped Tuesday. As of 3:35 p.m. EDT:\n\nVirgin Galactic was up 9.2%\nNikola was up 7.7%\nBloom Energy was up 4.5%\n\nSo what\nWith its share price trading around $40, it's notable that the July 16, 2021 $100 call options on Virgin Galactic had some of the highest implied volatility of all equity options Tuesday, according to Yahoo! Finance. Along with trading volume already more than double the 60-day daily average, this implies traders are hoping shares surge more than 150% to record highs in just the next three weeks.\nPart of the thinking of traders in Virgin Galactic call options may be that high short interest in the stock could set shares up to move higher. As of late May, 28% of the public share float was sold short. Retail traders likely are hoping for ashort squeezesimilar to what occurred in other meme stocks. Similarly, Nikola and Bloom Energy had a respective 32% and 12% of their floats sold short, according to data from MarketWatch.\nNow what\nEach of these stocks is speculative, and Virgin Galactic and Nikola aren't yet even bringing in revenue. Nothing of note was announced by these companies Tuesday to explain the stock movement. Nikola did file a Securities and Exchange Commission statement registering more than 18 million shares for potential sale. But that was related to capital it recently raised through a private deal, and any proceeds from the newly registered shares would be going to the stockholder, and not the company.\nInvestors may be interested in Bloom Energy Tuesday because of a quarterly financial release from fellow hydrogen fuel cell technology companyPlug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG).That report was a mix of strong sales growthoffset by continued net losses from that company. A growing hydrogen economy would be good news for Bloom, and company management expressed optimism in its recently released first quarter report for the period ended March 31, 2021. Revenue growth was also strong, and Bloom Energy CFO Greg Cameron said in a statement, \"We are confident in our guidance and are on the way to being a $1 billion revenue business that is well positioned for future growth.\"\nBut Tuesday's stock action seems more likely influenced by retail traders looking to turn high short interest into a rising stock price if shorts areforced to cover sold shares. For long-term investors, this type of move isn't critical to an investing thesis -- even for speculative stocks like these.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":74,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
