While the company's revenue guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was above analysts' consensus estimate, management's view for revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was slightly below what analysts were expecting.\nNow what\nThe market seems to be bearish on tech stocks recently, as investors seem to be paring back on some investments with premium valuations amid worse-than-expected inflation data and potential rate hikes from the Federal Reserve around the corner.\nBut investors may want to put Salesforce stock on their watch list, as the stock has been punished pretty badly recently, falling 17% over the past 30 days. Moreover, the stock's 14% year-to-date gain is well behind the S&P 500's 23% gain this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":649,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":604792643,"gmtCreate":1639444339797,"gmtModify":1639444340560,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple 🍎🚀💪🏻","listText":"Apple 🍎🚀💪🏻","text":"Apple 🍎🚀💪🏻","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/604792643","repostId":"1113010542","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1113010542","pubTimestamp":1639442922,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1113010542?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-14 08:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AAPL Stock Price Predictions: Why One Analyst Just Set a Street-High Target for Apple","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1113010542","media":"investor place","summary":"Tech titan Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has reason for celebration today after investment bank J.P.

(DIS)</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1eb7ad7f596bcaa16827853ace850b05\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">AFM Visuals/Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Disney’s stock got hammered in the pandemic’s early days, shedding about 38% of its value in the month ending March 20, 2020. After rallying for much of last year, it’s down almost 15% since the beginning of 2021. Disney’s earnings in the fiscal fourth quarter, which ended Oct. 2, came in about $200 million short of expectations. Its theme parks are still operating at reduced capacity, so Q4’s results could have been much worse.</p>\n<p>Streaming platform Disney+ is up to 118.1 million subscribers, and the company projects that figure will grow to more than 230 million by 2024. While the company says Disney+ subscriber growth slowed, revenue from subscriptions across Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu was $4.6 billion in Q4 — 38% higher than a year before.</p>\n<p>Disney remains a beloved global brand and says it expects international visitors to parks to pick up later in 2022 as restrictions ease. JPMorgan Chase predicts a full economic rebound from COVID-19 in 2022, and if that’s true, Disney’s theme parks could once again be packed.</p>\n<h2>Mastercard (MA)</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aed78bfcce51f38789bf91a87e4815ed\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">garmoncheg/Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Mastercard’s stock has been mostly trending downward since July, and it recently hit the skids, shrinking by 17% from Nov. 16 through Dec. 1. However, it’s trending upward over the last week or so, recovering most of that recent loss.</p>\n<p>The sell-off of Mastercard’s stock doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the company’s performance. Q3 net revenue was $5 billion, a year-over-year increase of 30%. Purchase volume was up 23% over the same period.</p>\n<p>Mastercard’s in a tricky position. Buy now, pay later apps are doing their best to disrupt the credit card space, and the company doesn’t currently seem to have an answer that will help increase the company’s cache with younger users.</p>\n<p>But that could be more of a long-term issue. In the short-term, inflation-jacked prices mean customers are paying more, and a rebound in tourism and credit card spending should have the company’s users — there’s almost a billion of them — ringing up purchases left and right.</p>\n<h2>AT&amp;T (T)</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2584b9217af4e8f8876958e9a7bf34a2\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Jonathan Weiss/Shutterstock</p>\n<p>AT&amp;T’s stock has been on a downward tumble for a while now. Its share price is 45% lower than it was five years ago, and is down more than 22% this year alone.</p>\n<p>AT&amp;T has taken some big swings that haven’t paid off. Its purchase of DirecTV and Time Warner in 2015 and 2018, respectively, added more than $130 billion in debt to the company’s balance sheet. Last year, T-Mobile replaced AT&amp;T as America’s second-largest wireless carrier.</p>\n<p>None of that sounds particularly enticing, but the company knows changes need to be made. It divested a number of its smaller businesses and some of its real estate holdings and sold 30% of DirecTV to streamline operations and free up capital for the expansion of its 5G network, which could be huge.</p>\n<p>AT&amp;T is still a risky buy with its stumbles this year, but if you believe in the turnaround plan, the anxiety might be worthwhile. Big picture, AT&amp;T continues to boast the scale advantages required to compete in the high-growth wireless space long term.</p>\n<h2>If your faith in the market is flagging …</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eedd4d7004b766d5dc2e8fe34b4c1922\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">MartinLueke/Shutterstock</p>\n<p>With elite investors like Charlie Munger, Michael Burry and Jeremy Grantham all saying the market is due for a correction, it might be worth looking into investments other than stocks.</p>\n<p>There’s no shortage of unique alternative assets you can invest in that have little correlation with the stock market, including luxury vehicles, commercial real estate, blue-chip artworks or even marine finance.</p>\n<p>Traditionally, many alternative asset classes have only been available to millionaires because of the enormous costs involved.

However, it’s trending upward over the last week or so, recovering most of that recent loss.\nThe sell-off of Mastercard’s stock doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the company’s performance. Q3 net revenue was $5 billion, a year-over-year increase of 30%. Purchase volume was up 23% over the same period.\nMastercard’s in a tricky position. Buy now, pay later apps are doing their best to disrupt the credit card space, and the company doesn’t currently seem to have an answer that will help increase the company’s cache with younger users.\nBut that could be more of a long-term issue. In the short-term, inflation-jacked prices mean customers are paying more, and a rebound in tourism and credit card spending should have the company’s users — there’s almost a billion of them — ringing up purchases left and right.\nAT&T (T)\nJonathan Weiss/Shutterstock\nAT&T’s stock has been on a downward tumble for a while now. Its share price is 45% lower than it was five years ago, and is down more than 22% this year alone.\nAT&T has taken some big swings that haven’t paid off. Its purchase of DirecTV and Time Warner in 2015 and 2018, respectively, added more than $130 billion in debt to the company’s balance sheet. Last year, T-Mobile replaced AT&T as America’s second-largest wireless carrier.\nNone of that sounds particularly enticing, but the company knows changes need to be made. It divested a number of its smaller businesses and some of its real estate holdings and sold 30% of DirecTV to streamline operations and free up capital for the expansion of its 5G network, which could be huge.\nAT&T is still a risky buy with its stumbles this year, but if you believe in the turnaround plan, the anxiety might be worthwhile. Big picture, AT&T continues to boast the scale advantages required to compete in the high-growth wireless space long term.\nIf your faith in the market is flagging …\nMartinLueke/Shutterstock\nWith elite investors like Charlie Munger, Michael Burry and Jeremy Grantham all saying the market is due for a correction, it might be worth looking into investments other than stocks.\nThere’s no shortage of unique alternative assets you can invest in that have little correlation with the stock market, including luxury vehicles, commercial real estate, blue-chip artworks or even marine finance.\nTraditionally, many alternative asset classes have only been available to millionaires because of the enormous costs involved. But a new platform is making these opportunities available to retail investors too.\nThis article provides information only and should not be construed as advice.

It may surprise you to learn that technology stocks actually make up over a quarter of the whole index, and that's dominated by big companies like Apple and Microsoft. Similarly, the energy sector, which is actually the best-performing sector of 2021 (even better than tech) only makes up 3% of the index. So, the energy sector could double and it would contribute less than Microsoft stock's 3.47 percentage point contribution so far this year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fd86fe8cdf4105e1711d7983ad648bc\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"635\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>MSFT data by YCharts</span></p>\n<h2>What to do about it</h2>\n<p>One of the biggest mistakes we can make as investors is obsessing over short- to mid-term performance. Zooming in to a particular quarter undermines the big picture. For example, there are plenty of stocks that absolutely crushed the market in 2020 that are underperforming or even down big this year (think <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a>,</b> <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b>, <b>Square</b>, <b>Teladoc</b>, and <b>Peloton</b>, to name a few).</p>\n<p>While it's easy to say that those companies are underperformers this year, keep in mind they are still net winners over the last two years.</p>\n<h2>A note of reassurance</h2>\n<p>Let's say that for a few years now, you've been underperforming the market because you haven't held the stocks that have really driven the index's returns. The truth of the matter is that you're still probably a lot better off because you were in the market in the first place. So if you're up, let's say, half of what the index is, you're still growing your wealth at a much quicker pace than folks who aren't in the market at all.</p>\n<p>The most important priority is your financial goals. If you're investing in dividend stocks to supplement income in retirement, then you're playing a different game than growth-oriented investors. Similarly, if you're a value investor who focuses on stodgy, slow-growing, but safe companies that let you sleep at night, then it's simply expected that you're going to underperform a growth-driven market.</p>\n<h2>Focus on what really matters</h2>\n<p>The point here is that comparing your performance to the S&amp;P 500, for better or for worse, is usually unhelpful. As long as you're investing in companies, cryptos, or other securities that you understand and that are helping you reach your goals, then the rest is little more than bragging rights.</p>\n<p>The market moves in cycles.

That's after a 16% 2020 gain despite the COVID-19 pandemic. Gains this high are not normal, as the market tends to average around 8% a year over the long term.\nWhat's even more remarkable is that the 10 largest components of the S&P 500 are up -- wait for it -- an average of 50% year to date.\nNow if you're looking at your portfolio wondering why it's underperforming the market this year, you aren't alone. Beating the stock market in 2021 is nearly impossible without these 10 stocks. Here's why.\nFlexing their muscles\nThe math here is beautifully simple. The 10 largest holdings of the S&P 500 make up 29% of the index. As mentioned, they are collectively up an average of 50% of the year, which contributes a gain of 13 percentage points to the S&P 500's return. That's around half of the index's gain from these 10 stocks alone. So, without their contribution, the index is up a whole lot less.\n\n\n\nCompany\nS&P 500 Weight\nYTD Gain\nEffect On S&P 500 YTD Return\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)\n6.4%\n54%\n3.47 percentage points\n\n\nApple (NASDAQ:AAPL)\n6.2%\n21%\n1.30 percentage points\n\n\nAmazon (NASDAQ:AMZN)\n4%\n13%\n0.52 percentage points\n\n\nAlphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG)\n2.3%\n70%\n1.58 percentage points\n\n\nTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)\n2.2%\n61%\n1.36 percentage points\n\n\nMeta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB)\n2%\n26%\n0.53 percentage points\n\n\nNvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)\n2%\n153%\n3.03 percentage points\n\n\nBerkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B)\n1.3%\n21%\n0.27 percentage points\n\n\nJPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM)\n1.2%\n27%\n0.33 percentage points\n\n\nHome Depot (NYSE:HD)\n1.1%\n54%\n0.58 percentage points\n\n\n\nData sources: Yahoo! Finance, YCharts, Slickcharts\nDissecting the S&P 500\nWe talk about the S&P 500 all the time, but we don't always discuss what makes up the index and why it moves the way it does. It may surprise you to learn that technology stocks actually make up over a quarter of the whole index, and that's dominated by big companies like Apple and Microsoft. Similarly, the energy sector, which is actually the best-performing sector of 2021 (even better than tech) only makes up 3% of the index. So, the energy sector could double and it would contribute less than Microsoft stock's 3.47 percentage point contribution so far this year.\nMSFT data by YCharts\nWhat to do about it\nOne of the biggest mistakes we can make as investors is obsessing over short- to mid-term performance. Zooming in to a particular quarter undermines the big picture. For example, there are plenty of stocks that absolutely crushed the market in 2020 that are underperforming or even down big this year (think Zoom, PayPal, Square, Teladoc, and Peloton, to name a few).\nWhile it's easy to say that those companies are underperformers this year, keep in mind they are still net winners over the last two years.\nA note of reassurance\nLet's say that for a few years now, you've been underperforming the market because you haven't held the stocks that have really driven the index's returns. The truth of the matter is that you're still probably a lot better off because you were in the market in the first place. So if you're up, let's say, half of what the index is, you're still growing your wealth at a much quicker pace than folks who aren't in the market at all.\nThe most important priority is your financial goals. If you're investing in dividend stocks to supplement income in retirement, then you're playing a different game than growth-oriented investors. Similarly, if you're a value investor who focuses on stodgy, slow-growing, but safe companies that let you sleep at night, then it's simply expected that you're going to underperform a growth-driven market.\nFocus on what really matters\nThe point here is that comparing your performance to the S&P 500, for better or for worse, is usually unhelpful. As long as you're investing in companies, cryptos, or other securities that you understand and that are helping you reach your goals, then the rest is little more than bragging rights.\nThe market moves in cycles. And while we may be living in a multi-year period of growth (especially mega-cap tech growth), there could be a few years where it shifts from growth to value, or from large-cap tech growth to small-cap growth. Hopefully, you're left with a better understanding of what's really driving the S&P 500 and why it's so easy to underperform if you didn't own stocks like Microsoft, Nvidia, or Tesla this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":376,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":603088582,"gmtCreate":1638339284112,"gmtModify":1638339285019,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"[Happy] [Happy] [Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/603088582","repostId":"1154548210","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154548210","pubTimestamp":1638336120,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1154548210?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-01 13:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Porsche, SP Group tie up to launch 3 new EV charging sites","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154548210","media":"businesstimes","summary":"PORSCHE Asia Pacific is partnering utility group SP Group to expand the sports car maker's charging ","content":"<div>\n<p>PORSCHE Asia Pacific is partnering utility group SP Group to expand the sports car maker's charging network in Singapore for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (EV) and battery EVs.\nAs part of the tie-...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/transport/porsche-sp-group-tie-up-to-launch-3-new-ev-charging-sites\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1607307803821","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

For instance, automakers and consumer electronics companies are currently grappling with chip shortages, and those headwinds may last through next year. Of course, that particular problem has actually been a tailwind for chipmakers like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\"><b>Nvidia</b> </a>.</p>\n<p>In fact, Nvidia's share price has skyrocketed 150% since the beginning of 2021 and 455% since the beginning of 2020. The company has a market cap of $814 billion as of this writing, making it the world's largest semiconductor business by a wide margin. But after those tremendous gains, is Nvidia stock still a smart buy?</p>\n<p>Let's dive in.</p>\n<h2>The leader in supercomputing</h2>\n<p>Nvidia specializes in accelerated computing. In 1999, the company invented the graphics processing unit (GPU), a chip designed to parallelize compute-intensive tasks. In other words, GPUs can perform thousands of calculations at the same time. For that reason, they are ideal for generating ultra-realistic video game graphics, and they are shaping the future of evolving technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, and the metaverse.</p>\n<p>However, GPUs also excel at handling complex data center workloads, such as analytics, artificial intelligence, and scientific computing. And last year, Nvidia reinforced its hardware portfolio with the acquisition of Mellanox, a specialist in high-performance networking solutions. That move made Nvidia even more relevant in the data center, expanding the scope of its products. But Nvidia does more than hardware -- it's a full-stack computing company.</p>\n<p>To that end, Nvidia also provides a range of GPU-optimized software, such as TensorFlow for AI training, TensorRT for AI inference, and Rapids for data science workloads. It also offers a range of application frameworks that hasten development such as Merlin&nbsp;for recommender systems, Isaac&nbsp;for robotics, and Drive&nbsp;for autonomous vehicles. In short, Nvidia is an end-to-end solution for accelerated computing.</p>\n<p>More importantly, it has established itself as the industry leader. Its compute platform powers eight of the top 10&nbsp;supercomputers, and Nvidia holds over 90% market share in supercomputer accelerators. Those figures evidence its dominance in the data center, a market that management estimates will reach $100 billion by 2024.</p>\n<p>Likewise, Nvidia chips are still the gold standard for gamers and graphics as it holds 83% market share in discrete GPUs for PCs and over 90% market share in workstation graphics.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, Nvidia's financial performance has been impressive.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e51fa974c041f70217c30c78752ab06\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"409\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Data by YCharts.</p>\n<h2>A robust growth strategy</h2>\n<p>In addition to deploying Nvidia hardware in private data centers, clients can run workloads on Nvidia GPUs in every major public cloud, from <b>Amazon</b> Web Services&nbsp;to<b>&nbsp;Tencent</b>. And Nvidia recently added support for hybrid environments with the launch of AI Enterprise, a suite of software that allows businesses to virtualize AI and analytics workloads across private and public clouds. Virtualization software (in this case, <b>VMware </b>vSphere) creates a pool of resources from the underlying infrastructure, allowing clients to use physical hardware more&nbsp;efficiently.</p>\n<p>To supplement its AI Enterprise suite, Nvidia offers two additional subscription products: Base Command&nbsp;and Fleet Command, which streamline the development and deployment of AI applications. Collectively, all three products are available through Nvidia LaunchPad, a program that provides businesses with immediate access to AI infrastructure.</p>\n<p>However, the more exciting subscription product is Omniverse. This revolutionary platform took Nvidia nearly five years to develop, and it's finally live. Omniverse accelerates 3D workflows by enabling real-time collaboration among creators like architects, engineers, and game developers across a range of 3D design software. It also serves as a simulation engine&nbsp;capable of generating physically accurate synthetic data, meaning Omniverse can be used to train AI models that power autonomous robots and self-driving cars.</p>\n<p>That's incredible, but those use cases only scratch the surface. For instance, Nvidia recently announced Omniverse Avatar, a platform capable of generating AI avatars -- digital automatons that can see, speak, think, and understand. That technology could revolutionize customer service and empower every person with an intelligent digital assistant.

For instance, automakers and consumer electronics companies are currently grappling with chip shortages, and those headwinds may last through next year. Of course, that particular problem has actually been a tailwind for chipmakers like Nvidia .\nIn fact, Nvidia's share price has skyrocketed 150% since the beginning of 2021 and 455% since the beginning of 2020. The company has a market cap of $814 billion as of this writing, making it the world's largest semiconductor business by a wide margin. But after those tremendous gains, is Nvidia stock still a smart buy?\nLet's dive in.\nThe leader in supercomputing\nNvidia specializes in accelerated computing. In 1999, the company invented the graphics processing unit (GPU), a chip designed to parallelize compute-intensive tasks. In other words, GPUs can perform thousands of calculations at the same time. For that reason, they are ideal for generating ultra-realistic video game graphics, and they are shaping the future of evolving technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, and the metaverse.\nHowever, GPUs also excel at handling complex data center workloads, such as analytics, artificial intelligence, and scientific computing. And last year, Nvidia reinforced its hardware portfolio with the acquisition of Mellanox, a specialist in high-performance networking solutions. That move made Nvidia even more relevant in the data center, expanding the scope of its products. But Nvidia does more than hardware -- it's a full-stack computing company.\nTo that end, Nvidia also provides a range of GPU-optimized software, such as TensorFlow for AI training, TensorRT for AI inference, and Rapids for data science workloads. It also offers a range of application frameworks that hasten development such as Merlin for recommender systems, Isaac for robotics, and Drive for autonomous vehicles. In short, Nvidia is an end-to-end solution for accelerated computing.\nMore importantly, it has established itself as the industry leader. Its compute platform powers eight of the top 10 supercomputers, and Nvidia holds over 90% market share in supercomputer accelerators. Those figures evidence its dominance in the data center, a market that management estimates will reach $100 billion by 2024.\nLikewise, Nvidia chips are still the gold standard for gamers and graphics as it holds 83% market share in discrete GPUs for PCs and over 90% market share in workstation graphics.\nNot surprisingly, Nvidia's financial performance has been impressive.\n\nData by YCharts.\nA robust growth strategy\nIn addition to deploying Nvidia hardware in private data centers, clients can run workloads on Nvidia GPUs in every major public cloud, from Amazon Web Services to Tencent. And Nvidia recently added support for hybrid environments with the launch of AI Enterprise, a suite of software that allows businesses to virtualize AI and analytics workloads across private and public clouds. Virtualization software (in this case, VMware vSphere) creates a pool of resources from the underlying infrastructure, allowing clients to use physical hardware more efficiently.\nTo supplement its AI Enterprise suite, Nvidia offers two additional subscription products: Base Command and Fleet Command, which streamline the development and deployment of AI applications. Collectively, all three products are available through Nvidia LaunchPad, a program that provides businesses with immediate access to AI infrastructure.\nHowever, the more exciting subscription product is Omniverse. This revolutionary platform took Nvidia nearly five years to develop, and it's finally live. Omniverse accelerates 3D workflows by enabling real-time collaboration among creators like architects, engineers, and game developers across a range of 3D design software. It also serves as a simulation engine capable of generating physically accurate synthetic data, meaning Omniverse can be used to train AI models that power autonomous robots and self-driving cars.\nThat's incredible, but those use cases only scratch the surface. For instance, Nvidia recently announced Omniverse Avatar, a platform capable of generating AI avatars -- digital automatons that can see, speak, think, and understand. That technology could revolutionize customer service and empower every person with an intelligent digital assistant. In short, Omniverse is a stepping stone to the metaverse, and Nvidia has already established itself as a key player.\nMore broadly, the company's foray into subscription software should translate into a stable revenue stream in the years ahead.\nSome concerns about valuation\nCurrently, Nvidia stock trades at 34 times sales, an incredible premium compared to chipmakers like Advanced Micro Devices and Intel, which trade at about 13 and three times sales, respectively. Perhaps more concerning, Nvidia's current price-to-sales multiple is two times higher than its average over the last three years (and the highest it has been in decades). Put simply, this stock looks very expensive.\nOn the flip side, Nvidia's dominance in accelerated computing has made it a key player in several emerging industries, from artificial intelligence and augmented reality to robotics and the metaverse. And the visionary leadership of founder and CEO Jensen Huang should keep the company on a good trajectory.\nLooking ahead, I certainly think Nvidia can grow its business over the long term, but I'm less certain the stock can beat the market in the near term. For that reason, if you have plenty of time on your hands -- and you're prepared for volatility -- I think it's okay to buy a few shares today. But start small, and build a position slowly through dollar-cost averaging.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":246,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":600379820,"gmtCreate":1638075942201,"gmtModify":1638077759517,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"12% annual returns only an assumption.

For example, investing $300 a month could grow into more than $1 million in 30 years if it can generate a 12% annual return. That's slightly better than the&nbsp;average stock market return&nbsp;over the last 50 years of nearly 11%.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Many companies have a long history of beating the market. Three companies that appear likely to continue doing so in the decades ahead are&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BEP\"><b>Brookfield Renewable</b>&nbsp;</a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CCI\"><b>Crown Castle International</b>&nbsp;</a>, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\"><b>NextEra Energy</b>&nbsp;</a>. Because of that, $100 invested in each one every month could grow into a $1 million nest egg by retirement.</p>\n<h2>Benefiting from a powerful megatrend</h2>\n<p>Brookfield Renewable has enriched its investors over the years. Since its inception, the&nbsp;renewable energy&nbsp;producer has generated an annualized total return of 19%. The company had done that by investing billions of dollars into expanding its renewable energy portfolio. That has powered more than 10% annual growth in its cash flow per share, supporting 6% annual dividend increases over the last decade. </p>\n<p>However, Brookfield's best days appear to lie ahead. The global economy needs to invest trillions of dollars to decarbonize the energy sector over the next 30 years. That should enable Brookfield to continue to invest in expanding its renewable energy portfolio.</p>\n<p>The company currently has 36 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy projects in development. That's bigger than the company's current operating portfolio of about 21 GW. Combined with rising power rates, and its growing scale, these projects should support up to 11% annual cash flow per share growth through at least 2026. </p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Brookfield sees up to another 9% yearly boost from future acquisitions. Add that growing renewable-powered cash flow stream to the company's 3%-yielding dividend, and Brookfield appears to have the power to produce double-digit annual returns for decades to come.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>Connected to the data supercycle</h2>\n<p>Crown Castle has been an exceptional value creator over the years. The infrastructure-focused real estate investment trust (REIT) has delivered a more than 13% annual total return over the two-plus decades since its initial public offering. </p>\n<p>A major driver of those returns has been the billions of dollars the company has poured into expanding its communications infrastructure portfolio. Over the last decade alone, the REIT spent $31 billion on acquisitions and capital expenditures (capex), powering 9% annual dividend growth since 2014.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p>\n<p>The company still sees significant investment opportunities ahead. Crown Castle noted that the telecom industry's rollout of&nbsp;5G networks&nbsp;represents a decade-long investment cycle. Meanwhile, some see a 100-year data infrastructure upgrade investment opportunity to support the digital economy. Because of that, Crown Castle has a lot of growth ahead of it, which should drive continued strong returns. </p>\n<p>Crown Castle expects to grow its 3.2%-yielding dividend at a 7% to 8% annual rate in the near term. That suggests the company could deliver double-digit total returns in the coming years.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>Plugged into several growth catalysts</h2>\n<p>NextEra Energy has also created an enormous amount of wealth for its investors over the years. The&nbsp;utility&nbsp;has generated a roughly 700% total return over the last decade alone, crushing the 276% total return produced by the S&amp;P 500. Powering the company's robust results has been its ability to deliver above-average earnings and dividend growth. It has increased its earnings per share at an 8.7% compound annual rate since 2005, supporting 9.6% compound annual dividend growth. </p>\n<p>A major catalyst has been the company's leadership in renewable energy. It has grown into one of the world's largest wind and&nbsp;solar energy&nbsp;producers.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>That leadership should continue since it has one of the world's biggest backlogs of wind and solar energy development projects. In addition to tried-and-true technologies like wind and solar, NextEra is a leader in emerging technologies, including battery storage and green hydrogen. Meanwhile, it's&nbsp;tapping into other sources of growth&nbsp;like water infrastructure. Because of that, NextEra should have plenty of power to continue growing its earnings and dividend in the decades ahead.</p>\n<h2>Grow rich slowly</h2>\n<p>Compound interest can do wonders for your retirement. Steadily investing a few hundred dollars each month into high-performing stocks can create an enormous amount of wealth. One of the keys to finding stocks that can deliver decades of strong returns is focusing on those benefiting from megatrends.

Its stock is up 120% this year as shoppers flush with cash flock back to stores.</p>\n<p>“Perception of a brand is a hard thing to turn, and it takes time in order to build back trust with your consumer,” Horowitz says in an interview with <i>Barron’s</i>. “So, here we are happy to say in 2021 that we are seeing, obviously, the wonderful effects of all of that hard work.”</p>\n<p>Abercrombie isn’t the only retail brand that is coming into a new period of growth. Over the past year, many of America’s retailers have not only clawed their way out of the abyss, but have harnessed macroeconomic changes ushered in by the pandemic to propel themselves into an unexpected renaissance.</p>\n<p>Brands that successfully merged their bricks-and-mortar operations with digital strategies are seeing sales soar and stock prices rise, lifted by a strong market and consumers champing at the bit to spend their pandemic savings. The stock prices of many major mall-based retailers have soared, including&nbsp;Macy’s&nbsp;(M),Nordstrom&nbsp;(JWN), Famous Footwear parent Caleres&nbsp;(CAL), and&nbsp;Signet Jewelers (SIG), which all gained at least 100% in the past 12 months.</p>\n<p>These companies are now poised to reap the benefits of a potentially record-setting holiday season. Consumers could spend $851 billion, a 9.5% increase from last year’s record $777 billion and more than twice the 4.4% average increase over the past five years, according to the National Retail Federation.</p>\n<p>No one knows whether the party will last or whether these stores are simply capturing sales that would have happened in the future. Before retail sales normalize, companies need to navigate a host of supply-chain and inflationary pressures that could put a damper on holiday sales.</p>\n<p>But the unexpected revival has reaffirmed the faith of many brands in the power of the physical stores. While still heavily investing in online operations, they are continuing to bet big on a bricks-and-mortar future. And as investments in physical stores continue, the demise of the bricks-and-mortar retailer that many once expected no longer seems so certain.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57cd1db2ff23484eff85f5e6ad64d7c8\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Wealthy households plan to spend an average $2,624 this holiday season, 15% more than last year.</span></p>\n<p>The pandemic wasn’t exactly ideal for retailers, but it offered some unique opportunities. The problems were obvious. People were afraid to shop in person. Shoppers—even baby boomers—flocked online in unexpected numbers. Retail behemoths such as&nbsp;Amazon.com&nbsp;(AMZN) and&nbsp;Walmart (WMT) saw their best year ever.</p>\n<p>“The investor sentiment—especially from short term, hedge fund type investors—had just turned very negative on the group,” Columbia Threadneedle Investments retail analyst Mari Shor says. “I just think that investors weren’t really giving the companies, or the consumers, the benefit of the doubt.”</p>\n<p>Shor says the doubt among investors was rooted in the notion that traditional retailers, both prepandemic and postpandemic, wouldn’t make it out alive.</p>\n<p>But the pandemic gave retailers the rare chance to close poorly performing locations and focus on great ones. Many retailers also focused on getting better online, and shifted their sales strategies to target consumers wherever and whenever they wanted to shop—whether online, mobile, or in-store.</p>\n<p>In one example of a company looking to fuel growth while connecting digital and in-store operations, the parent company of Saks Fifth Avenue spun out its e-commerce arm, which is now expected to go public with a target valuation of $6 billion.</p>\n<p>Such approaches proved critical. Online and other non-store sales are expected to increase between 11% and 15% this holiday season, potentially reaching a high of $226 billion, according to National Retail Federation estimates.</p>\n<p>“We’d like to think that the pandemic not only accelerated the adoption of e-commerce around the world but also expanded the market,” says Pedro Palandrani, a research analyst at Global X who covers e-commerce.</p>\n<p>Abercrombie invested hundreds of millions of dollars in its digital strategy, emphasizing smooth transitions from digital to in-store experiences with initiatives such as improving the company’s website and instituting in-store returns and pickups for online purchases. The arrival of the pandemic prompted Abercrombie to close 130 stores worldwide and 50% of the brand’s flagships, bringing total store closures in the past 10 years to about 500, while strategically opening a few key new stores, Horowitz says.</p>\n<p>“Stores matter, but they have to be the right size, the right location, and the right economics,” she says. “You put that together with the digital and it equals magic.”</p>\n<p>Not only are physical stores cost-effective ways to draw in-person shoppers, but they also can serve as crucial distribution centers for online pickups and returns, as well as local shipping, says B. Riley Securities analyst Susan Anderson. In recent years, even online retailers such as Warby Parker (WRBY) have expanded their physical presence to accommodate shopper preferences. “The consumer wants to shop when and where they want to,” Anderson says.</p>\n<p>That behavior can evolve in unexpected ways. Malls and physical stores are growing in popularity among digitally savvy teenagers and young adults.</p>\n<p>According to a survey of 1,000 shoppers earlier this year commissioned by BHDP, a design firm that counts retail among its specialties, 55% of 14-to-17 year olds say they are now shopping at indoor malls, and 90% plan to head to a mall in the next year. The 18-to-24-year-old shoppers surveyed are also back at the mall, trying on products, using in-store promotions, and making returns. Such shifts have led retailers to ditch old views and assumptions about specific demographics, says Rod Sides, vice chairman of U.S. retail and distribution at Deloitte.</p>\n<p>The shifts in strategy during the pandemic put many retailers in a better position for the reopening of malls and downtowns this year—and shoppers were eager to open their wallets.</p>\n<p>During the pandemic, some consumers became unexpectedly flush. They got stimulus payments, saved up from a decline in travel expenses, and saw the markets soar. Today, consumer savings at all income levels are at or near a record. Wealthy households are planning to spend 15% more than last year this holiday season, averaging $2,624 per household and driving much of the season’s growth, an annual Deloitte study found.</p>\n<p>“You got a lot of cash and there’s a fair amount of pent-up demand,” says Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics.</p>\n<p>Retail and food-services sales increased to an estimated $625 billion in September, up 0.7% from October and 13.9% year over year, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Sales in retail alone rose 0.8% from August. “We were expecting that you’d see some pullback in September, and we didn’t,” says Citigroup economist Veronica Clark.</p>\n<p>Retailers are much healthier than they were a decade ago heading into the holiday season, Matthew Shay, president and CEO of the National Retail Federation, said in a media briefing in October. A yearly&nbsp;Mastercard&nbsp;spending index forecasts U.S. retail sales to increase 7.4% this season, with significant gains in apparel, department stores, jewelry, and luxury items.</p>\n<p>Luxury retailer&nbsp;Burberry Group&nbsp;(BRBY.UK), known for its tartan fabric and scarves, said this past week that comparable sales for its first half of fiscal 2022 rose 37%, and that full-price sales are growing at a double-digit rate. And&nbsp;Tapestry&nbsp;(TPR), the parent company of Coach, posted better-than-expected fiscal first-quarter earnings, raising its outlook for 2022 sales and profits.</p>\n<p>Some analysts are bullish on the retail sector, with Cowen saying that “many of the luxury brands have successfully been able to take price increases and will likely benefit from the historically strong consumer balance sheets in the U.S. and internationally.” Wolfe Research favors Nordstrom and Tapestry, among others, with analysts writing in a note that “nearly all the major drivers of U.S. consumer spending favor the high end.”</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, more Americans started coming out to the mall. Placer.ai mall-traffic statistics show that foot traffic for indoor malls was up 3% in October compared with 2019 levels, and traffic for outdoor malls was up 5%—one of the reasons mall stores are seeing their stocks soar. Simon Property Group (SPG), which owns the malls themselves, saw its stock gain about 90% in 2021.</p>\n<p>“With the combination of more individuals becoming fully vaccinated, paired with many shopping early for the coming holiday season due to supply-chain concerns, we have seen a steady rise in foot traffic since July,” says Lindsay Petak, senior marketing manager for Tysons Corner Center in the Washington region. The mall is owned by Macerich (MAC), which also has seen its share price nearly double this year.</p>\n<p>All of this added to a stock run-up for the ages for beaten-down retailers. Over the past year, the&nbsp;SPDR S&amp;P Retail&nbsp;exchanged-trade fund (XRT) was up 85%, while the S&amp;P 500 rose 33%. The&nbsp;Invesco S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Discretionary&nbsp;ETF (RCD) has outperformed the S&amp;P 500 by five percentage points this year, a sign that investors remain bullish on retail sales.</p>\n<p>“We’ve seen department stores and apparel and discretionary retailers really bounce back as soon as the economy reopened,” the NRF’s Shay says. “Department stores are always a popular destination for the holiday season, based on the consumer survey work we do....They continue to be at the top of the list of the places people shop this year.”</p>\n<p>All that said, analysts and investors alike remain confident of the role physical stores play, which might look different from their online counterparts, but they’re here to stay.</p>\n<p>The verdict on whether the retail renaissance is sustainable in the long term isn’t in yet. Retailers are operating in a macroeconomic environment far from the norm, making any guesses even more speculative.</p>\n<p>“I don’t think we have normal insight yet because there are just too many complexities throughout the business right now,” says Jefferies analyst Janine Stichter.</p>\n<p>Companies are struggling to manage ongoing supply-chain concerns, inflationary pressures, and a persistent labor shortage, which are likely to bite into earnings despite all signs pointing to a strong holiday quarter. “The supply-chain issues, they’re real,” Horowitz says.</p>\n<p>Abercrombie is assuming a modest impact on sales due to supply-chain constraints, with even bigger impacts coming from freight inflation, the company said in its second-quarter earnings call.</p>\n<p>To ease supply-chain pressures, retailers are encouraging consumers to start their shopping early—a trend that could skew end-of-year sales data, Citigroup’s Clark says. If shoppers pull their gift-buying forward, there could be a decline in November and December compared with previous years. “It’s not necessarily that spending is much weaker; it’s just that the distribution over months is different,” she says.</p>\n<p>On the flip side, low inventories will give retailers higher pricing power that can help offset supply-chain disruptions, Stichter says. While beneficial to retailers, this could drive prices up even more, says Sasha Tomic, an economist at Boston College.</p>\n<p>Whatever the risks, strong performance won’t last forever, says Matthew Forester, chief investment officer at BNY Mellon’s Lockwood Advisors. “The U.S. economy, overall, is clearly slowing down,” he says. “And we’re going to slow down into the next year. Plus, as we get back to trend growth, that’s just what’s likely to happen.”</p>\n<p>The economy will eventually exit its euphoria as stimulus continues to dwindle, he says. And while the comedown might not be “terrible,” he says, it will still be a decline from where consumer spending is now.</p>\n<p>Abercrombie, though, is powering through the headwinds with the help of its bricks-and-mortar stores. The company is planning to position more inventory in stores, and is routing e-commerce orders to stores as well as partnering with Uber, Shipt, and Postmates to offer same-day delivery.</p>\n<p>Other retailers have taken supply-chain solutions in their own hands. Specialty-apparel company American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) recently announced it was acquiring Quiet Logistics, an operator of automated distribution centers near city centers, just weeks after it bought AirTerra, which focuses on middle-mile logistics—the delivery of products from a warehouse to a retail store.</p>\n<p>“We’re going to just continue at it,” Horowitz says.</p>\n<p>As retailers forge ahead, doomsayers might have to hold off on heralding a retail apocalypse. For now, the sentiment is clear: Consumers are rediscovering the joys of bricks-and-mortar shopping. The mall has become cool again.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Shoppers Are Heading to Malls Again.

The mall has become cool again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":33,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":829603617,"gmtCreate":1633493749084,"gmtModify":1633493750129,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yah no worries 😉&nbsp;","listText":"Yah no worries 😉&nbsp;","text":"Yah no worries 😉","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/829603617","repostId":"1103782575","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103782575","pubTimestamp":1633486462,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1103782575?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-06 10:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Don't worry (too much) about an October market crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103782575","media":"CNN Business","summary":"New York (CNN Business) - October has often been a spooky month on Wall Street.

Production by OPEC+ was 700,000 bpd less than planned in both September and October, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), raising the prospect of a tight market and high oil prices for longer.</p>\n<p>In the past, smaller OPEC producers in Africa and even some larger ones in the Gulf could be expected to exceed quotas set by OPEC when they needed the extra cash, usually when oil prices were low.</p>\n<p>But plunging investment in production caused by the pandemic and environmental pressure on oil majors, particularly in poorer OPEC states, means just three OPEC members - Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Iraq - have the extra capacity in place to hike supplies relatively quickly.</p>\n<p>\"Recent data support our long-held expectation that a growing number of members are running out of spare capacity,\" consultancy Energy Aspects wrote in a note.</p>\n<p>PRESSING FOR MORE</p>\n<p>Under President Donald Trump, Washington had pressed OPEC+ to slash output in 2020 when prices tanked and threatened to crush the U.S. oil industry. The group agreed to sweeping cuts of about 10 million bpd, or a record 10% of global supply.</p>\n<p>As demand has rebounded faster than many expected, President Joe Biden's administration has repeatedly pressed OPEC+ for more supply, fearing high crude prices - Brent is up more than 50% so far this year - could choke a global recovery.</p>\n<p>\"OPEC+ remains deaf to political pressure to accelerate supply increases,\" Energy Aspects said.</p>\n<p>Unable to persuade OPEC+ to pump more and facing low approval ratings ahead of next year's mid-term congressional elections, Biden has asked China, India, South Korea and Japan for a coordinated oil stocks release.</p>\n<p>Yet such a move is complicated by the mandate of the Paris-based IEA, which represents industrialised nations.

Production by OPEC+ was 700,000 bpd less than planned in both September and October, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), raising the prospect of a tight market and high oil prices for longer.\nIn the past, smaller OPEC producers in Africa and even some larger ones in the Gulf could be expected to exceed quotas set by OPEC when they needed the extra cash, usually when oil prices were low.\nBut plunging investment in production caused by the pandemic and environmental pressure on oil majors, particularly in poorer OPEC states, means just three OPEC members - Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Iraq - have the extra capacity in place to hike supplies relatively quickly.\n\"Recent data support our long-held expectation that a growing number of members are running out of spare capacity,\" consultancy Energy Aspects wrote in a note.\nPRESSING FOR MORE\nUnder President Donald Trump, Washington had pressed OPEC+ to slash output in 2020 when prices tanked and threatened to crush the U.S. oil industry. The group agreed to sweeping cuts of about 10 million bpd, or a record 10% of global supply.\nAs demand has rebounded faster than many expected, President Joe Biden's administration has repeatedly pressed OPEC+ for more supply, fearing high crude prices - Brent is up more than 50% so far this year - could choke a global recovery.\n\"OPEC+ remains deaf to political pressure to accelerate supply increases,\" Energy Aspects said.\nUnable to persuade OPEC+ to pump more and facing low approval ratings ahead of next year's mid-term congressional elections, Biden has asked China, India, South Korea and Japan for a coordinated oil stocks release.\nYet such a move is complicated by the mandate of the Paris-based IEA, which represents industrialised nations. Under its rules, reserves should be released to cope with shocks, such as wars or hurricanes, not to correct prices.\n\"A (stocks) release would only provide a short-term fix to a structural deficit and would create clear upside risks to our 2022 price forecast,\" Goldman Sachs wrote.\nAlthough higher crude prices could help push up supply, it said investment was being hampered by environmental, social and governance (ESG) concerns and worries about global warming, with banks charging more on loans for oil than green projects.\n\"The damage to investors caused by oil producers' capital destruction over the last seven years is now compounded by ESG allocation inefficiencies,\" Goldman said.\nAccording to its schedule for unwinding output curbs, OPEC+ will officially have 3.8 million bpd of cuts in place as of Dec. 1. But, with some OPEC+ members unable to raise output enough, the actual cut remains bigger.\nDIMINISHING BUFFER\nThe IEA said Angola and Nigeria accounted for nearly 90% of the 730,000 bpd OPEC+ production shortfall in October.\nEnergy Aspects says it expects the OPEC+ production \"gap to steadily grow as quotas keep rising.\"\nEven if OPEC+ producers picked up the pace, it would whittle away at a spare production capacity cushion, which could alarm investors and drive up prices if the world no longer had enough extra capacity to cope with a shock, industry experts say.\n\"The industry's spare capacity, currently at 3-4 million bpd is providing some comfort to the market, however, my concern is that the buffer ... might diminish,\" Saudi Aramco Chief Executive Officer Amin Nasser told the Nikkei Global Management Forum.\nSaudi Arabia is now producing close to 10 million bpd but has never produced more than 11 million bpd for a sustained period of many months, even though it says it has more capacity available.

Since that low point, commercial airplane deliveries have improved each quarter sequentially, up to 79 deliveries for Q2 FY 2021. Analysts forecast that this trend will continue, with 96 commercial airplanes delivered for Q3 FY 2021.

Based on analysts' consensus sales estimates, the following five big-name stocks are expected to increase their sales by 356% to as much as 1,605% by 2025.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646435%2Ffinancial-newspaper-graph-showing-gains-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"535\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Shopify: 464% implied sales growth by 2025</h2>\n<p>The first well-known hypergrowth stock that could deliver a jaw-dropping sales increase over the next five years is cloud-based e-commerce platform <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP). Following $2.93 billion in full-year sales in 2020, Wall Street is forecasting $16.54 billion in annual sales by mid-decade. That's a 464% increase, for those of you keeping score at home.</p>\n<p>The beauty of the Shopify operating model is that it finds itself in the right place at the right time. Prior to 2020, businesses were shifting their presence online at a steady pace. But in the wake of the pandemic, businesses of all sizes have come to realize how important it is to have their products available for sale on e-commerce marketplaces. Known best for helping small merchants reach large audiences, Shopify estimates its total addressable market for small businesses is currently $153 billion. Thus, with $2.9 billion in sales last year and the company constantly innovating and introducing new tools, it's just scratching the tip of the iceberg in terms of its potential.</p>\n<p>What's more, Shopify is benefiting from its high-margin subscription-based services. Whereas entrepreneurs can take advantage of the company's basic services for $29 a month, it offers its core service to small businesses for $79/mo. to $299/mo., or its Shopify Plus service for $2,000/mo. to larger businesses. This is a company that shouldn't have any issue growing its operating margins over time.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646435%2Ftelemedicine-patient-doctor-physician-virtual-conference-healthcare-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Teladoc Health: 356% implied sales growth by 2025</h2>\n<p>Another big-name stock on track to produce eye-popping sales growth over the next half-decade is telemedicine kingpin <b>Teladoc Health</b> (NYSE:TDOC). Last year, Teladoc generated $1.09 billion in sales. But by 2025, Wall Street's consensus has the company pegged for $4.98 billion in sales.</p>\n<p>There's little question that Teladoc Health benefited immensely from the COVID-19 pandemic. With physicians wanting to keep potentially sick and high-risk people out of their offices, demand for virtual visits soared.</p>\n<p>But this isn't a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-trick pony. What Teladoc is doing is fundamentally altering the personalized treatment landscape. While virtual services won't replace all in-person visits, it's far more convenient for patients, and it can help doctors keep better tabs on chronically ill patients. Ultimately, that's a recipe for improved patient outcomes and less money out of the pockets of health insurers.</p>\n<p>Teladoc also expects a serious long-term growth boost from the acquisition of leading applied health signals company Livongo Health. Livongo leans on artificial intelligence to send tips to its chronic care members to help them lead healthier lives. With a focus on diabetes, hypertension, and weight management, Livongo's services could cater to a large swath of the U.S. adult population.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646435%2Fretail-shopping-store-online-sale-smartphone-website-ecommerce-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Sea Limited: 430% implied sales growth by 2024</h2>\n<p>Singapore-based <b>Sea Limited</b> (NYSE:SE) is expected to deliver such robust sales growth that it doesn't even need a full five years. With consensus estimates looking out to 2024, the company's sales are projected to more than quintuple to $23.2 billion from $4.38 billion in 2020.</p>\n<p>Sea's success is the result of three very different but rapidly growing segments. The first, digital entertainment, is the only one generating positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Sea had approximately 725 million quarterly active mobile game users in the June-ended quarter, 12.7% of which were paying customers.&nbsp; For some context, only about 2% of mobile gamers are being converted to paying customers industrywide.</p>\n<p>Second, and arguably the more intriguing segment, is its e-commerce platform Shopee. Shopee has consistently been the most downloaded shopping app in Southeastern Asia, and it managed $15 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) on its platform in the second quarter. This $60 billion annual run-rate is a 500% increase from what it did in all of 2018 ($10 billion in GMV). E-commerce sales in the emerging market countries Shopee serves are still in the early stages of ramping up.</p>\n<p>Third, Sea's digital financial services segment has almost 33 million paying digital wallet customers. Since many of the markets Sea serves are underbanked, mobile wallets could be a key growth driver for the company.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646435%2Fsiblings-watch-tv-family-entertainment-show-network-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Roku: 408% implied sales growth by 2025</h2>\n<p>Television streaming platform <b>Roku</b> (NASDAQ:ROKU) is yet another big-name stock on pace to more than quintuple sales in just five years. After bringing in $1.78 billion in full-year sales in 2020, Wall Street's consensus is calling for about $9.05 billion in revenue by 2025. That's an increase of 408%.</p>\n<p>Roku has two key catalysts in its sails. First, there's ongoing cord-cutting from consumers. Over a four-year stretch, the number of U.S. households with traditional cable, satellite, or telcoTV services has fallen by more than 21 million to 75.6 million, according to a report from NScreenMedia.com. Meanwhile, the number of households without these traditional services now stands at more than 50 million. The opportunity to provide these households with streaming content of their choosing, be it free or paid content, is clearly helping Roku win over customers (55.1 million active accounts, as of June 2021).</p>\n<p>But the more exciting opportunity for Roku is with programmatic digital ads. As consumers shift their viewing content from traditional cable and satellite to streaming providers, advertisers are responding by putting more of their budget to work with companies like Roku. More active accounts will give Roku increased ad pricing power, which in turn will it allow it grow its average revenue per user (ARPU) at a rapid clip. In the June-ended quarter, ARPU grew by 46%, even though active accounts increased by only 28% year over year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F646435%2Fcoronavirus-vaccine-doctor-patient-healthcare-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Moderna: 1,605% implied sales growth by 2025</h2>\n<p>However, the king of the mountain, at least on this list, is biotech stock <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA).

A combination of historically low lending rates and ongoing quantitative easing measures from the Federal Reserve have rolled out the red carpet for fast-paced companies and given them access to abundant cheap capital.\nYet for some high-growth stocks, their parabolic sales increases are just beginning. Based on analysts' consensus sales estimates, the following five big-name stocks are expected to increase their sales by 356% to as much as 1,605% by 2025.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nShopify: 464% implied sales growth by 2025\nThe first well-known hypergrowth stock that could deliver a jaw-dropping sales increase over the next five years is cloud-based e-commerce platform Shopify (NYSE:SHOP). Following $2.93 billion in full-year sales in 2020, Wall Street is forecasting $16.54 billion in annual sales by mid-decade. That's a 464% increase, for those of you keeping score at home.\nThe beauty of the Shopify operating model is that it finds itself in the right place at the right time. Prior to 2020, businesses were shifting their presence online at a steady pace. But in the wake of the pandemic, businesses of all sizes have come to realize how important it is to have their products available for sale on e-commerce marketplaces. Known best for helping small merchants reach large audiences, Shopify estimates its total addressable market for small businesses is currently $153 billion. Thus, with $2.9 billion in sales last year and the company constantly innovating and introducing new tools, it's just scratching the tip of the iceberg in terms of its potential.\nWhat's more, Shopify is benefiting from its high-margin subscription-based services. Whereas entrepreneurs can take advantage of the company's basic services for $29 a month, it offers its core service to small businesses for $79/mo. to $299/mo., or its Shopify Plus service for $2,000/mo. to larger businesses. This is a company that shouldn't have any issue growing its operating margins over time.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nTeladoc Health: 356% implied sales growth by 2025\nAnother big-name stock on track to produce eye-popping sales growth over the next half-decade is telemedicine kingpin Teladoc Health (NYSE:TDOC). Last year, Teladoc generated $1.09 billion in sales. But by 2025, Wall Street's consensus has the company pegged for $4.98 billion in sales.\nThere's little question that Teladoc Health benefited immensely from the COVID-19 pandemic. With physicians wanting to keep potentially sick and high-risk people out of their offices, demand for virtual visits soared.\nBut this isn't a one-trick pony. What Teladoc is doing is fundamentally altering the personalized treatment landscape. While virtual services won't replace all in-person visits, it's far more convenient for patients, and it can help doctors keep better tabs on chronically ill patients. Ultimately, that's a recipe for improved patient outcomes and less money out of the pockets of health insurers.\nTeladoc also expects a serious long-term growth boost from the acquisition of leading applied health signals company Livongo Health. Livongo leans on artificial intelligence to send tips to its chronic care members to help them lead healthier lives. With a focus on diabetes, hypertension, and weight management, Livongo's services could cater to a large swath of the U.S. adult population.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSea Limited: 430% implied sales growth by 2024\nSingapore-based Sea Limited (NYSE:SE) is expected to deliver such robust sales growth that it doesn't even need a full five years. With consensus estimates looking out to 2024, the company's sales are projected to more than quintuple to $23.2 billion from $4.38 billion in 2020.\nSea's success is the result of three very different but rapidly growing segments. The first, digital entertainment, is the only one generating positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Sea had approximately 725 million quarterly active mobile game users in the June-ended quarter, 12.7% of which were paying customers.  For some context, only about 2% of mobile gamers are being converted to paying customers industrywide.\nSecond, and arguably the more intriguing segment, is its e-commerce platform Shopee. Shopee has consistently been the most downloaded shopping app in Southeastern Asia, and it managed $15 billion in gross merchandise value (GMV) on its platform in the second quarter. This $60 billion annual run-rate is a 500% increase from what it did in all of 2018 ($10 billion in GMV). E-commerce sales in the emerging market countries Shopee serves are still in the early stages of ramping up.\nThird, Sea's digital financial services segment has almost 33 million paying digital wallet customers. Since many of the markets Sea serves are underbanked, mobile wallets could be a key growth driver for the company.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nRoku: 408% implied sales growth by 2025\nTelevision streaming platform Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) is yet another big-name stock on pace to more than quintuple sales in just five years. After bringing in $1.78 billion in full-year sales in 2020, Wall Street's consensus is calling for about $9.05 billion in revenue by 2025. That's an increase of 408%.\nRoku has two key catalysts in its sails. First, there's ongoing cord-cutting from consumers. Over a four-year stretch, the number of U.S. households with traditional cable, satellite, or telcoTV services has fallen by more than 21 million to 75.6 million, according to a report from NScreenMedia.com. Meanwhile, the number of households without these traditional services now stands at more than 50 million. The opportunity to provide these households with streaming content of their choosing, be it free or paid content, is clearly helping Roku win over customers (55.1 million active accounts, as of June 2021).\nBut the more exciting opportunity for Roku is with programmatic digital ads. As consumers shift their viewing content from traditional cable and satellite to streaming providers, advertisers are responding by putting more of their budget to work with companies like Roku. More active accounts will give Roku increased ad pricing power, which in turn will it allow it grow its average revenue per user (ARPU) at a rapid clip. In the June-ended quarter, ARPU grew by 46%, even though active accounts increased by only 28% year over year.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nModerna: 1,605% implied sales growth by 2025\nHowever, the king of the mountain, at least on this list, is biotech stock Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA). Sales for Moderna are expected to grow from a reported $803.4 million in 2020 to an estimated $13.7 billion by 2025. That's an increase of more than 1,600%!\nWhile it's not uncommon to see rapid nominal sales growth when clinical-stage biotech stocks introduce their first drug for sale, Moderna's launch from minimal revenue to multiple billions occurred quickly, thanks to its development of a COVID-19 vaccine, mRNA-1273. In clinical studies, mRNA-1273 led to a 94% vaccine efficacy and demonstrably helped inoculated patients stay out of the hospital with severe forms of the illness.\nFrom a business standpoint, Moderna continues to benefit from the need to inoculate billions of people worldwide, as well as the mutability of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19. The need for booster shots or annual vaccines could give Moderna a source of recurring revenue.\nOn the other hand, the vaccine space is growing more crowded, with a number of new entrants expected within the U.S. and globally. Considering that mRNA-1273 is the company's only revenue-generating drug, Moderna's $126 billion market cap can best be described as precarious.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":133,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":690356293,"gmtCreate":1639640896343,"gmtModify":1639640897142,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok!

Juries sided 3M in three others, and two more trials are underway, with more to come.\n\"We will ensure that 3M is held fully accountable for putting profits over the safety of those who served our nation,\" the lead lawyers for the plaintiffs - Bryan Aylstock, Shelley Hutson and Christopher Seeger - said in a joint statement.\n3M did not respond to a request for comment. It has contended the Combat Arms Earplugs Version 2 were effective and safe to use.\nAearo Technologies LLC, which 3M bought in 2008, developed the product. Plaintiffs allege the company hid design flaws, fudged test results and failed to provide instruction in the proper use of the earplugs.\nFor the earplugs to work properly, the flexible cups on the side protruding from the ear sometimes had to be folded back. If not, the plugs would slowly loosen and noise would seep in. Veterans contend 3M failed to convey the need to fold the plugs.\n(Reporting by Nate Raymond in Boston Editing by Sonya Hepinstall)\n((Nate.Raymond@thomsonreuters.com and Twitter @nateraymond; 347-243-6917; Reuters Messaging: nate.raymond.thomsonreuters.com@reuters.net))","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":689,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":874448186,"gmtCreate":1637815981211,"gmtModify":1637815981557,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Haha…&nbsp;Any winner?

The competitive environment has never been more interesting and tough, and we intend to live up to our promise to compete like a challenger, focusing on our top priorities to unlock Ford+ growth with customers at the very center of everything we do.”\nFord closed for Wednesday trading at $20.25, a hair below its 52-week high of $20.79 and far from its 52-week low of $8.43.\nThe Case For Tesla:While it impossible not to talk about Tesla without mentioning CEO Elon Musk, the South African-born entrepreneur was actually a latecomer to the company. Tesla was founded in July 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, with Musk coming on board in February 2004 as chairman via a $6.5-million investment. Musk would become CEO in 2008, with Eberhard and Tarpenning being maneuvered out of the corporate leadership.\n\nUnder Musk, Tesla established itself as the power player in the EV sector — its Model 3 became the first EV to sell 1 million units globally last June, and last month it achieved a $1-trillion market capitalization, which made Musk the world’s richest man.\nTesla has a workforce of less than 71,000 and 12 manufacturing facilities spread across the U.S., Canada, Germany and China. Three additional facilities, two in the U.S and one in Germany, are slated to open next year.\nTesla has also weathered its share of controversies recently. Reuters reported Tuesday that employees at Tesla's new factory near Berlin have taken the first steps to set up a works council, a move that reportedly irritated Musk, who notoriously threatened to strip his U.S. workers of their stock options if they tried to unionize.\nThe German IG Metall trade union also reported the Berlin Tesla plant is offering wages that are 20% below the collectively bargained wages offered at other German automakers.\nLast week,news percolated of a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by a woman at the company’s factory in Fremont, California. And the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) has sought data from all Tesla vehicles produced since 2014 to related to its Autopilot system, with the company’s self-driving cars having crashed into emergency vehicles at least 11 times.\nIn its most recent earnings report, the third-quarter data published on Oct. 20, Tesla saw revenues of $13.7 billion, up from $8.7 billion one year earlier. Net income was $1.6 billion for the quarter, up from $331 million in the previous year. The diluted EPS of $1.44 was up year-over-year from 27 cents.\nThe quarterly report acknowledged the performance could have been better.\n“A variety of challenges, including semiconductor shortages, congestion at ports and rolling blackouts, have been impacting our ability to keep factories running at full speed,” the report stated. “We believe our supply chain, engineering and production teams have been dealing with these global challenges with ingenuity, agility and flexibility that is unparalleled in the automotive industry.”\nTesla closed for trading on Wednesday at $1,116, closer to its 52-week high of $1,243.49 and far from its 52-week low of $526.20.\nThe Verdict:More than a few Benzinga readers may consider this statement to be the stock market equivalent of apostasy, but the winner in this Stock Wars duel is easily Ford and not Tesla. There are four key reasons why Ford is the stronger stock.\nFirst, Ford is admittedly late to the EV game, but it has manufacturing resources that Tesla lacks. Farley’s goal of making Ford the world’s biggest EV company is not farfetched based on its global presence. Tesla is late to the European market and might be putting too much hope on gaining a leadership position in China, where U.S. companies are never allowed to be a dominant player in any sector.\nSecond, Ford has already produced a superior product. Last week,Consumer Reports judgedFord’s five-door electric crossover Mustang Mach-E as being better than Tesla Model 3 sedan and other electric models in its latest annual reliability score. And while both the Mach-E and Tesla vehicles were subject to recalls earlier this year due to problems with their glass roofs, at least the NHTSA is not demanding seven years of data from Ford.\nThird, Ford is investing in its future via its aforementioned partnership with GlobalFoundries and with a partnership involving Walmart and Argo AI on “last mile” autonomous-vehicle delivery service. In comparison, Musk seems more interested in picking social media fights with his peers in the corporate world than building relationships to boost the company.\nFourth, Ford learned the hard way what happens when a corporate leader runs his mouth off unchecked. In 1997, 50 years after Henry Ford died, Ford sponsored an advertising-free broadcast on NBC of Steven Spielberg’s Academy Award-winning Holocaust drama “Schindler’s List” — and while the company insisted otherwise, it was fairly obvious that Ford was atoning for its founder’s miserable anti-Semitism and the use of slave labor in its German operations before the U.S. entry into World War II.\nMercifully, Musk’s tweets and media antics do not carry the dismal emotional and intellectual shackles of Ford’s actions. Nonetheless, Musk often seems more interested in the sound of his voice, to the point of obscuring his company rather than enhancing it — and his reckless tweets and questionable corporate judgment has already brought federal government actions and lawsuits aimed at him and his company, and it is not impossible to imagine more will follow if he keeps on this route.\nMusk’s flippancy might be amusing today, but come back in a few years and it will not be difficult to imagine Ford having the proverbial last laugh at his expense.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":872237905,"gmtCreate":1637537273497,"gmtModify":1637537273792,"author":{"id":"3581996485604595","authorId":"3581996485604595","name":"BigThumb","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9366427dbceb4a03b5342d31b6c3aaa","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Really?

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. 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.

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. 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.

Of course, that particular problem has actually been a tailwind for chipmakers like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\"><b>Nvidia</b> </a>.</p>\n<p>In fact, Nvidia's share price has skyrocketed 150% since the beginning of 2021 and 455% since the beginning of 2020. The company has a market cap of $814 billion as of this writing, making it the world's largest semiconductor business by a wide margin. But after those tremendous gains, is Nvidia stock still a smart buy?</p>\n<p>Let's dive in.</p>\n<h2>The leader in supercomputing</h2>\n<p>Nvidia specializes in accelerated computing. In 1999, the company invented the graphics processing unit (GPU), a chip designed to parallelize compute-intensive tasks. In other words, GPUs can perform thousands of calculations at the same time. For that reason, they are ideal for generating ultra-realistic video game graphics, and they are shaping the future of evolving technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, and the metaverse.</p>\n<p>However, GPUs also excel at handling complex data center workloads, such as analytics, artificial intelligence, and scientific computing. And last year, Nvidia reinforced its hardware portfolio with the acquisition of Mellanox, a specialist in high-performance networking solutions. That move made Nvidia even more relevant in the data center, expanding the scope of its products. But Nvidia does more than hardware -- it's a full-stack computing company.</p>\n<p>To that end, Nvidia also provides a range of GPU-optimized software, such as TensorFlow for AI training, TensorRT for AI inference, and Rapids for data science workloads. It also offers a range of application frameworks that hasten development such as Merlin&nbsp;for recommender systems, Isaac&nbsp;for robotics, and Drive&nbsp;for autonomous vehicles. In short, Nvidia is an end-to-end solution for accelerated computing.</p>\n<p>More importantly, it has established itself as the industry leader. Its compute platform powers eight of the top 10&nbsp;supercomputers, and Nvidia holds over 90% market share in supercomputer accelerators. Those figures evidence its dominance in the data center, a market that management estimates will reach $100 billion by 2024.</p>\n<p>Likewise, Nvidia chips are still the gold standard for gamers and graphics as it holds 83% market share in discrete GPUs for PCs and over 90% market share in workstation graphics.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, Nvidia's financial performance has been impressive.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e51fa974c041f70217c30c78752ab06\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"409\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Data by YCharts.</p>\n<h2>A robust growth strategy</h2>\n<p>In addition to deploying Nvidia hardware in private data centers, clients can run workloads on Nvidia GPUs in every major public cloud, from <b>Amazon</b> Web Services&nbsp;to<b>&nbsp;Tencent</b>. And Nvidia recently added support for hybrid environments with the launch of AI Enterprise, a suite of software that allows businesses to virtualize AI and analytics workloads across private and public clouds. Virtualization software (in this case, <b>VMware </b>vSphere) creates a pool of resources from the underlying infrastructure, allowing clients to use physical hardware more&nbsp;efficiently.</p>\n<p>To supplement its AI Enterprise suite, Nvidia offers two additional subscription products: Base Command&nbsp;and Fleet Command, which streamline the development and deployment of AI applications. Collectively, all three products are available through Nvidia LaunchPad, a program that provides businesses with immediate access to AI infrastructure.</p>\n<p>However, the more exciting subscription product is Omniverse. This revolutionary platform took Nvidia nearly five years to develop, and it's finally live. Omniverse accelerates 3D workflows by enabling real-time collaboration among creators like architects, engineers, and game developers across a range of 3D design software. It also serves as a simulation engine&nbsp;capable of generating physically accurate synthetic data, meaning Omniverse can be used to train AI models that power autonomous robots and self-driving cars.</p>\n<p>That's incredible, but those use cases only scratch the surface. For instance, Nvidia recently announced Omniverse Avatar, a platform capable of generating AI avatars -- digital automatons that can see, speak, think, and understand. That technology could revolutionize customer service and empower every person with an intelligent digital assistant. In short, Omniverse is a stepping stone to the metaverse, and Nvidia has already established itself as a key player.</p>\n<p>More broadly, the company's foray into subscription software should translate into a stable revenue stream in the years ahead.</p>\n<h2>Some concerns about valuation</h2>\n<p>Currently, Nvidia stock trades at 34 times sales, an incredible premium compared to chipmakers like <b>Advanced Micro Devices</b> and <b>Intel</b>, which trade at about 13 and three times sales, respectively. Perhaps more concerning, Nvidia's current price-to-sales multiple is two times higher than its average over the last three years (and the highest it has been in decades). Put simply, this stock looks very expensive.</p>\n<p>On the flip side, Nvidia's dominance in accelerated computing has made it a key player in several emerging industries, from artificial intelligence and augmented reality to robotics and the metaverse. And the visionary leadership of founder and CEO Jensen Huang should keep the company on a good trajectory.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, I certainly think Nvidia can grow its business over the long term, but I'm less certain the stock can beat the market in the near term. For that reason, if you have plenty of time on your hands -- and you're prepared for volatility -- I think it's okay to buy a few shares today.
