Banking, of course.\nAs in life, retailers have had to find a way to work around the system. Some cannabis merchants have begun using cashless ATMs to bypass limitations on the types of sales payment cards they can legally accept.\nOne of the largest payment processors in the world, Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) recently issued a compliance memo to customers warning them that incorrectly coding point-of-sale transactions via cashless ATMs could be penalized or punished by unspecified enforcement procedure, reported Marijuana Moment.\nVisa’s warning comes on the heels of the marijuana banking reform bill that was recently chopped from Congress’ defense bill. The latest version of the Congressional defense bill left out several key provisions that were in the House-approved National Defense Authorization Act(NDAA), including the much-anticipated marijuana banking reform known as the Secure and Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act, which would protect banking and financial institutions that work with state-legal cannabis companies.\nAware Of A Scheme\nVisa’s memo from Dec. 2 obtained by Marijuana Moment revealed that the company is “aware of a scheme”in which retailers are utilizing cashless ATMs to avoid limitations on the types of sales for which payment cards are allowed to be used.\n“Cashless ATMs are POS devices driven by payment applications that mimic standalone ATMs. However, no cash disbursements are made to cardholders,” the memo clarified. “Instead, the devices are used for purchase transactions, which are miscoded as ATM cash disbursements. Purchase amounts are often rounded up to create the appearance of a cash disbursement.”\nAlthough the Visa directive does not specifically mention cannabis, it highlights that cashless ATMs (also called reverse ATMs) “are primarily marketed to merchant types that are unable to obtain payment services—whether due to the Visa Rules, the rules of other networks, or legal or regulatory prohibitions,” a category that covers marijuana businesses.\nNathaniel Gurien, CEO of Fincann,which provides financial services to cannabis businesses, estimates that thousands of marijuana retailers in the U.S. rely on this scheme.\nA Desperate Move With Catastrophic Potential\n“What keeps me up at night is that when, not if one or more eager assistant U.S. attorneys with their eye on advancement sinks their teeth into this, it has the catastrophic potential to derail our industry’s momentum and inflict great damage,” Gurien told the outlet.\nWhile it remains clear that marijuana retailers are in an untenable situation – having no access to banking services – they should be aware that relying on the use of cashless ATMs can endanger their operations.\nCorporate and banking compliance lawyer Kasim Carbide noted that violating Visa's regulations “may result in a disciplinary action against the Merchant, as well as a potential fine of $200,000 or $2,500 per day (which can be retroactively applied [sic] to and from the first day of noncompliance), and termination of the Merchant’s account.”\nWhat’s more, according to the Chicago Bar Association, miscoding cannabis sales is not only a violation of payment processors' (in this case Visa’s) policies but a “violation of federal law as well.”\nConfused Yet?\nTo exacerbate an already complicated situation, Jessica Billingsley, CEO of cannabis technology company Akerna (NASDAQ:KERN) pointed out that there are probably many businesses that are unaware that cashless ATM practice is illegal.\n“With the number of unique complexities and challenges the cannabis industry faces, many operators don’t understand that they have been sold misrepresented products that may not be legal,” Billingsley said in a

Even better, these companies could sustain their strong run beyond next year as well thanks to a set of impressive catalysts. Let's look at the reasons why investors should consider adding Nvidia, Synaptics, and Applied Materials to their portfolios.</p>\n<h2>1. Nvidia</h2>\n<p>Nvidia has been a stock market darling in 2021 thanks to the booming demand for its graphics cards, which are used across a wide variety of applications such as personal computers (PCs), data centers, automotive, and other markets. The terrific graphics card demand has translated into outstanding growth at Nvidia. The company's fiscal 2022 third-quarter revenue was up 50% year over year to $7.1 billion, while diluted earnings per share shot up 60% to $1.17.</p>\n<p>The gaming and data center businesses that produced 86% of the company's total revenue last quarter grew 42% and 55%, respectively, year-over-year, and they are unlikely to slow down any time soon. Nvidia controls 83% of the discrete graphics card market, and it was the only GPU (graphics processing unit) supplier to have increased shipments in the third quarter, according to Jon Peddie Research.</p>\n<p>The chipmaker has been able to increase the supply of its graphics cards to meet the robust end-market demand. Nvidia's strong grip over this space is great news, as the GPU market's revenue is expected to jump to $44 billion by 2023, setting the stage for further growth in the gaming business. Meanwhile, the growing deployment of hyperscale data centers and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications are turning out to be tailwinds for Nvidia.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d37411519d470ff3c53a15776d3013c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>The hyperscale data center market is expected to grow at nearly 27% a year through 2025, according&nbsp;to market research provider TechNavio.

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), Synaptics (NASDAQ:SYNA), and Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT) are three stocks that have absolutely crushed the broader market so far this year.\n^SPX data by YCharts\nAs we enter the final month of the year, investors who have missed the terrific rally in these tech stocks should consider taking a closer look at them since they could repeat their sizzling performance in 2022. Even better, these companies could sustain their strong run beyond next year as well thanks to a set of impressive catalysts. Let's look at the reasons why investors should consider adding Nvidia, Synaptics, and Applied Materials to their portfolios.\n1. Nvidia\nNvidia has been a stock market darling in 2021 thanks to the booming demand for its graphics cards, which are used across a wide variety of applications such as personal computers (PCs), data centers, automotive, and other markets. The terrific graphics card demand has translated into outstanding growth at Nvidia. The company's fiscal 2022 third-quarter revenue was up 50% year over year to $7.1 billion, while diluted earnings per share shot up 60% to $1.17.\nThe gaming and data center businesses that produced 86% of the company's total revenue last quarter grew 42% and 55%, respectively, year-over-year, and they are unlikely to slow down any time soon. Nvidia controls 83% of the discrete graphics card market, and it was the only GPU (graphics processing unit) supplier to have increased shipments in the third quarter, according to Jon Peddie Research.\nThe chipmaker has been able to increase the supply of its graphics cards to meet the robust end-market demand. Nvidia's strong grip over this space is great news, as the GPU market's revenue is expected to jump to $44 billion by 2023, setting the stage for further growth in the gaming business. Meanwhile, the growing deployment of hyperscale data centers and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications are turning out to be tailwinds for Nvidia.\nImage source: Getty Images\nThe hyperscale data center market is expected to grow at nearly 27% a year through 2025, according to market research provider TechNavio. The demand for data center accelerators, on the other hand, is reportedly increasing at an annual pace of nearly 37%. With Nvidia holding 80% of the cloud and data center accelerator market as per Omdia's estimates, its data center business looks set for impressive growth.\nWhat's more, emerging applications such as the metaverse have given Nvidia bulls more reasons to cheer in recent weeks, as they could add to the already-solid catalysts the company is sitting on. In all, it isn't surprising to see why analysts are expecting Nvidia to deliver annual earnings growth of almost 40% for the next five years, which could help it remain a top growth stock for years to come.\n2. Synaptics\nSynaptics is winning big from the growing demand for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The company got 55% of its total revenue from IoT products in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, recording 70% year-over-year revenue growth in this segment.\nThe impressive growth of the IoT business led to a 13% year-over-year increase in Synaptics' quarterly revenue to $372.7 million.

As a result, the demand for Synaptics' wireless chips powered by Wi-Fi and Bluetooth should continue to increase in the long run.\nWith Synaptics trading at 25 times forward earnings, compared to the NASDAQ-100 index's  forward earnings multiple of 30, and its earnings expected to grow at 15% a year for the next five years, it looks like a solid pick for investors looking to get into an IoT stock right now.\n3. Applied Materials\nThe world is facing a semiconductor shortage, and Applied Materials is one of those companies helping to alleviate the lack of chips that has hamstrung several industries, ranging from smartphones to automotive to computers. The demand for Applied Materials' semiconductor manufacturing equipment has jumped impressively over the past year and a half, translating into strong top- and bottom-line growth.\nAMAT Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nApplied Materials' revenue in the recently concluded fiscal 2021 (ending on Oct. 31, 2021) increased 34% over the prior year to $23 billion, while adjusted earnings shot up 64% year-over-year to $6.84 per share.

Even better, these companies could sustain their strong run beyond next year as well thanks to a set of impressive catalysts. Let's look at the reasons why investors should consider adding Nvidia, Synaptics, and Applied Materials to their portfolios.</p>\n<h2>1. Nvidia</h2>\n<p>Nvidia has been a stock market darling in 2021 thanks to the booming demand for its graphics cards, which are used across a wide variety of applications such as personal computers (PCs), data centers, automotive, and other markets. The terrific graphics card demand has translated into outstanding growth at Nvidia. The company's fiscal 2022 third-quarter revenue was up 50% year over year to $7.1 billion, while diluted earnings per share shot up 60% to $1.17.</p>\n<p>The gaming and data center businesses that produced 86% of the company's total revenue last quarter grew 42% and 55%, respectively, year-over-year, and they are unlikely to slow down any time soon. Nvidia controls 83% of the discrete graphics card market, and it was the only GPU (graphics processing unit) supplier to have increased shipments in the third quarter, according to Jon Peddie Research.</p>\n<p>The chipmaker has been able to increase the supply of its graphics cards to meet the robust end-market demand. Nvidia's strong grip over this space is great news, as the GPU market's revenue is expected to jump to $44 billion by 2023, setting the stage for further growth in the gaming business. Meanwhile, the growing deployment of hyperscale data centers and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications are turning out to be tailwinds for Nvidia.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7d37411519d470ff3c53a15776d3013c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>The hyperscale data center market is expected to grow at nearly 27% a year through 2025, according&nbsp;to market research provider TechNavio. The demand for data center accelerators, on the other hand, is reportedly increasing at an annual pace of nearly&nbsp;37%. With Nvidia holding&nbsp;80% of the cloud and data center accelerator market as per Omdia's estimates, its data center business looks set for impressive growth.</p>\n<p>What's more, emerging applications such as the metaverse have given Nvidia bulls more reasons to cheer in recent weeks, as they could add to the already-solid catalysts the company is sitting on. In all, it isn't surprising to see why analysts are expecting&nbsp;Nvidia to deliver annual earnings growth of almost 40% for the next five years, which could help it remain a top growth stock for years to come.</p>\n<h2>2. Synaptics</h2>\n<p>Synaptics is winning big from the growing demand for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The company got 55% of its total revenue&nbsp;from IoT products in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, recording 70% year-over-year revenue growth in this segment.</p>\n<p>The impressive growth of the IoT business led to a 13% year-over-year increase in Synaptics' quarterly revenue to $372.7 million.

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), Synaptics (NASDAQ:SYNA), and Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT) are three stocks that have absolutely crushed the broader market so far this year.\n^SPX data by YCharts\nAs we enter the final month of the year, investors who have missed the terrific rally in these tech stocks should consider taking a closer look at them since they could repeat their sizzling performance in 2022. Even better, these companies could sustain their strong run beyond next year as well thanks to a set of impressive catalysts. Let's look at the reasons why investors should consider adding Nvidia, Synaptics, and Applied Materials to their portfolios.\n1. Nvidia\nNvidia has been a stock market darling in 2021 thanks to the booming demand for its graphics cards, which are used across a wide variety of applications such as personal computers (PCs), data centers, automotive, and other markets. The terrific graphics card demand has translated into outstanding growth at Nvidia. The company's fiscal 2022 third-quarter revenue was up 50% year over year to $7.1 billion, while diluted earnings per share shot up 60% to $1.17.\nThe gaming and data center businesses that produced 86% of the company's total revenue last quarter grew 42% and 55%, respectively, year-over-year, and they are unlikely to slow down any time soon. Nvidia controls 83% of the discrete graphics card market, and it was the only GPU (graphics processing unit) supplier to have increased shipments in the third quarter, according to Jon Peddie Research.\nThe chipmaker has been able to increase the supply of its graphics cards to meet the robust end-market demand. Nvidia's strong grip over this space is great news, as the GPU market's revenue is expected to jump to $44 billion by 2023, setting the stage for further growth in the gaming business. Meanwhile, the growing deployment of hyperscale data centers and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications are turning out to be tailwinds for Nvidia.\nImage source: Getty Images\nThe hyperscale data center market is expected to grow at nearly 27% a year through 2025, according to market research provider TechNavio. The demand for data center accelerators, on the other hand, is reportedly increasing at an annual pace of nearly 37%. With Nvidia holding 80% of the cloud and data center accelerator market as per Omdia's estimates, its data center business looks set for impressive growth.\nWhat's more, emerging applications such as the metaverse have given Nvidia bulls more reasons to cheer in recent weeks, as they could add to the already-solid catalysts the company is sitting on. In all, it isn't surprising to see why analysts are expecting Nvidia to deliver annual earnings growth of almost 40% for the next five years, which could help it remain a top growth stock for years to come.\n2. Synaptics\nSynaptics is winning big from the growing demand for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The company got 55% of its total revenue from IoT products in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, recording 70% year-over-year revenue growth in this segment.\nThe impressive growth of the IoT business led to a 13% year-over-year increase in Synaptics' quarterly revenue to $372.7 million. More importantly, Synaptics' guidance indicates that its streak of strong growth is here to stay. The company expects $405 million in revenue this quarter and earnings of $3.05 per share, which means that its top and bottom lines could jump 13% and 32%, respectively, over the year-ago period.\nThe IoT business is expected to produce 58% of Synaptics' total revenue this quarter, indicating that the segment's influence on the company's top line is increasing. Looking ahead, the IoT business could keep getting better, as Synaptics is witnessing strong demand for its wireless chips, which are finding use in several applications ranging from handheld scanners to fitness equipment.\nSynaptics CEO Michael Hurlston pointed out on the November earnings conference call that \"our wireless products are seeing increased design win traction across a long tail of customers and applications, giving us confidence in believing we will achieve our target of doubling revenues again over the next 18 months.\"\nA third-party estimate points out that the cellular IoT market could clock 25.7% annual growth through 2027 as the need for chips and modules to connect different things increases. As a result, the demand for Synaptics' wireless chips powered by Wi-Fi and Bluetooth should continue to increase in the long run.\nWith Synaptics trading at 25 times forward earnings, compared to the NASDAQ-100 index's  forward earnings multiple of 30, and its earnings expected to grow at 15% a year for the next five years, it looks like a solid pick for investors looking to get into an IoT stock right now.\n3. Applied Materials\nThe world is facing a semiconductor shortage, and Applied Materials is one of those companies helping to alleviate the lack of chips that has hamstrung several industries, ranging from smartphones to automotive to computers. The demand for Applied Materials' semiconductor manufacturing equipment has jumped impressively over the past year and a half, translating into strong top- and bottom-line growth.\nAMAT Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nApplied Materials' revenue in the recently concluded fiscal 2021 (ending on Oct. 31, 2021) increased 34% over the prior year to $23 billion, while adjusted earnings shot up 64% year-over-year to $6.84 per share. The company can sustain such impressive growth in the new fiscal year thanks to the terrific growth in its orders.\nThe orders in Applied Materials' semiconductor systems business, which produced 70% of its revenue last year, increased 78% in fiscal 2021.

As a result, Applied Materials is an attractive stock to buy right now given that is trading at just 17 times forward earnings and is expected to register 16%-plus annual earnings growth over the next five years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":368,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":601445911,"gmtCreate":1638551367020,"gmtModify":1638551367020,"author":{"id":"3582265427186083","authorId":"3582265427186083","name":"irony82","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fe276d5eca474a349b2969225656b9be","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/601445911","repostId":"2188291935","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2188291935","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1638544685,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2188291935?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-03 23:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"PayPal says 'buy now, pay later' volumes surged 400% on Black Friday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2188291935","media":"Reuters","summary":"LONDON (Reuters) - Volumes on PayPal Inc's 'buy now, pay later' platform were five times higher this","content":"<p>LONDON (Reuters) - Volumes on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a> Inc's 'buy now, pay later' platform were five times higher this Black Friday compared with a year earlier as the payments giant starts to gain traction in the fast-growing credit method, the company's chief executive told the Reuters Next conference.</p>\n<p>PayPal launched its \"Buy in 4\" platform in August last year, making its entry into the increasingly competitive lending niche.</p>\n<p>\"We saw a 400% year-on-year rise on our volumes going through 'buy now, pay later' this past Black Friday,\" PayPal CEO Dan Schulman said. \"It’s booming right now.\" He added that more than 9 million people have used its service.</p>\n<p>Black Friday is the unofficial shopping holiday in late November on the day after the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday.</p>\n<p>\"We had more than 1 million first-time users for the first time ever in the month of November,\" Schulman said. \"It's not just popular but accelerating in popularity.\"</p>\n<p>Buy now, pay later (BNPL) services have exploded in popularity in tandem with the acceleration in e-commerce volumes during the pandemic.
