But the investment bank’s 1.6&nbsp;billion-euro&nbsp;($1.9&nbsp;billion) agreement to buy the asset management arm of insurer NN Group NV is a reminder of Wall Street’s claim to be better than the insurance industry at generating investment returns. With both sides agreeing, expect similar transactions to follow.</p>\n<p>The U.S. investment banks are keen to reduce the volatility of their financial results, an inevitable problem of being in a business driven by capital markets and M&amp;A activity. Expanding in asset management is the natural way forward. Sure, revenue here is also subject to market whims, but it’s relatively stable compared with&nbsp;bond trading and corporate finance.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the insurance sector is a willing seller of its in-house fund management operations. The industry appears to have accepted it shouldn’t be in this business. The job can be outsourced to dedicated asset managers who have greater scale, expertise and efficiency. Just consider the recent separation of M&amp;G Plc from insurer Prudential Plc. In this case, NN happens to be under pressure from activist Elliott Management Corp. Exiting asset management wasn’t Elliott’s key demand, but the pressure to simplify and focus is near universal in insurance.</p>\n<p>These trends collide in the Goldman-NN deal. Chief Executive Officer David Solomon&nbsp;emphasized&nbsp;asset management as a growth engine in last year’s strategy update. The transaction lifts the firm’s global managed assets by more than 10% and roughlydoubles its European funds business. At less than 1% of assets under management, the price is hardly racy, especially after considering Goldman’s&nbsp;ability to cut costs by consolidating shared functions.</p>\n<p>The cherry on top is a 10-year contract to manage assets for NN itself.

But the investment bank’s 1.6 billion-euro ($1.9 billion) agreement to buy the asset management arm of insurer NN Group NV is a reminder of Wall Street’s claim to be better than the insurance industry at generating investment returns. With both sides agreeing, expect similar transactions to follow.\nThe U.S. investment banks are keen to reduce the volatility of their financial results, an inevitable problem of being in a business driven by capital markets and M&A activity. Expanding in asset management is the natural way forward. Sure, revenue here is also subject to market whims, but it’s relatively stable compared with bond trading and corporate finance.\nMeanwhile, the insurance sector is a willing seller of its in-house fund management operations. The industry appears to have accepted it shouldn’t be in this business. The job can be outsourced to dedicated asset managers who have greater scale, expertise and efficiency. Just consider the recent separation of M&G Plc from insurer Prudential Plc. In this case, NN happens to be under pressure from activist Elliott Management Corp. Exiting asset management wasn’t Elliott’s key demand, but the pressure to simplify and focus is near universal in insurance.\nThese trends collide in the Goldman-NN deal. Chief Executive Officer David Solomon emphasized asset management as a growth engine in last year’s strategy update. The transaction lifts the firm’s global managed assets by more than 10% and roughlydoubles its European funds business. At less than 1% of assets under management, the price is hardly racy, especially after considering Goldman’s ability to cut costs by consolidating shared functions.\nThe cherry on top is a 10-year contract to manage assets for NN itself. If fund management is more stable than investment banking, running assets for an insurer is even better. The value here may not be so much in the quantum of the portfolios taken on, but in the stickiness attached to them. In turn, the deal reinforces Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s status as a key adviser to insurers and pension funds managing their liabilities. Adding heft in environmental, social and governance investing, and obtaining a platform for potential expansion in retail asset management, are further bonuses.\nGoldman trades at a respectable 50% premium to its so-called tangible book value.

High ROIC is evidence of efficiency and pricing power, and Microsoft is one of the ROIC leaders in its peer group.\n\nReturn on Invested Capital (Annual) data by YCharts\nHigh growth and stable operations make Microsoft a great candidate for any IRA.\nAlphabet\nThe case for Alphabet is similar to Microsoft's. Google became the dominant force in web search and digital advertising, then it wisely expanded into other growth categories. Alphabet's Android dominates the global market for mobile operating systems, providing an even deeper foothold in app distribution and advertising. YouTube is the global leader for user-generated streaming video content and another major digital advertising powerhouse under Alphabet's umbrella. The company is also a major player in cloud computing, though it trails Microsoft Azure and AWS (Amazon Web Services).\nAlphabet is dominant in several growth industries, which provides long-term stability. Alphabet's enormous research and development (R&D) budget is also among the largest in the world. That R&D, along with its extensive history of clever acquisitions, allows the tech giant to defend its competitive position and achieve high growth rates.\n\nData by YCharts\nAlphabet stock is a pretty good bet to achieve better returns than the market indexes without taking on excessive risk.\nSalesforce\nSalesforce.com (NYSE:CRM) revolutionized enterprise sales with its cloud-based platform. Its technology allows large teams of sales professionals to coordinate their work across different locations. This is extremely valuable for organizations that need to understand and manage an enormous volume of communications with existing and potential customers.\nThe customer relationship management (CRM) software industry is fragmented, but Salesforce.com is the leader by a large margin. Its 20% market share is higher than its four largest competitors combined. The company protects its leadership position with high switching costs and an ever-expanding service offering. A huge number of sales and marketing professionals spend their formative years using Salesforce.com, so they are familiar with the interface and utilities of the platform. It is expensive and inconvenient for enterprises to switch to a competitor. Revenue attrition is under 10% on an annual basis, meaning that 90% of their customers renew annual contracts. That's clear evidence of competitive advantage and a wide moat.\nSalesforce.com operates a less diversified business than Microsoft or Alphabet, but its 20% market share leaves plenty of room for growth. The CRM leader is expanding relatively rapidly as a result, and it's currently impressing customers with its improving analytics and AI tools. The company expects revenue to double over the next five years as it rides the wave of digital transformation that's impacting every industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":178,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833927507,"gmtCreate":1629199597309,"gmtModify":1633686645004,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"😙😙😙","listText":"😙😙😙","text":"😙😙😙","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/833927507","repostId":"1123297263","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1123297263","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629192705,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1123297263?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 17:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"JPMorgan Lists The Bull And Bear Cases For Markets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1123297263","media":"zerohedge","summary":"With most banks publishing mea culpas (seeGoldmanandMorgan Stanley) for failing to predict the meltu","content":"<p>With most banks publishing mea culpas (seeGoldmanandMorgan Stanley) for failing to predict the meltup in the market that has now pushed the S&amp;P 100% higher from the pandemic bottom in March 2020 and is trading at a new all time high as of this moment, this morning JPMorgan - which has been one of the most vocally bullish banks even if it has called for outperformance of value stocks which have lost their mojo in the past 3 months as the reflation case was abandoned by markets - published its Bull and Bear Cases, including several key risks that the bank's strategist believe will define markets for the next few months.</p>\n<p><u><b>BULL CASE:</b></u></p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Earnings momentum</b>– JPM's chief equity strategist increased his EPS estimates on 7/20/21 to $205 for 2021, $230for 2022, and $250 for 2023;

all are above Street consensus\nAccelerating buybacks– As of 8/6/21 there were $477bn of announced buybacks, implying $800bn annualized number which would trail only 2018 in $-volume and exceed 2019’s $702bn\nImproving COVID environment–this will boost Consumer spending and job growth; JPM cites Marko Kolanovic' view that the effective reproduction number (Rt) is declining in 40 of 50 states\nMore stimulus– the most likely is infrastructure,which could be $550bn or ~$4T\nChina growth reboot– China may decide to add more fiscal & monetary stimulus helping boost RoW\nImproved labor markets– this would also have positive, direct impacts on GDP.\n\nBEAR CASE:\n\nCOVID expands/mutates– JPM says that there is evidence that Delta-variant is more harmful on children than other strains and the under 18 year old hospitalization rate is the highest of the pandemic (WaPo); given children under 12 are ineligible for vaccines JPM believes that \"we may see lockdowns reinstated to protect kids\"\nOnline schooling– A move to delay or cancel in-person learning is market negative given the impacts on the labor market, spending without stimulus, and sentiment;\nFed policy mistake– The bank believes that at this stage, it would be too early for the Fed to announce tapering which could mean that unemployment does not reach February 2020 levels as financial conditions tighten;\nChina’s COVID-Zero policy hurts global growth– the shutdown of the world’s 3rd busiest port in China in response to one positive case triggering global delays include at the Port of Los Angeles but generally the policy has led most economists to downgrade growth.\nGovernment Shutdown– US fiscal policy has been a tailwind throughout the pandemic but the fighting surrounding infra and the debt ceiling could lead to another shutdown according to JPM; the 2011 shutdown led to a US credit downgrade on 8/5/11 triggering a 1.29% decline in the SPX in Aug/Sept with the 10Y yield falling from 2.40% on 8/4 to 1.92% on 9/30\n\nRISKS:\n\nGeopolitics– the top risk is the situation in Afghanistan which could spill across the region potentially bringing American/Allied, Chinese, or Russian, forces to the region or a prolonged basis; at best this is a humanitarian crisis that triggers waves of refugees;\nUS Consumer fails to boost the economy– while much focus has been on stimulus and savings rates, one hidden source of level is the proliferation of Buy Now, Pay Later (“BNPL”) that grew from $9.5bn in 2019 to $19bn in 2020 (CNBC) and may grow exponentially from here given new entrants like Apple and M&A. There is evidence that BNPL represents hidden leverage and thus could mute the impact of normalizing savings rates and/or become a new source of economy-wide credit risk.\nRates/USD– a surge in yields, a plunge in dollars, or inflation expectations jumping materially could drive volatility into Equity markets; and,\nFinancial conditions– could become a headwind, stalling growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":185,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833922378,"gmtCreate":1629199296794,"gmtModify":1633686647557,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"😇😰😰","listText":"😇😰😰","text":"😇😰😰","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/833922378","repostId":"2160620348","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160620348","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1629193975,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2160620348?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 17:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Great Stocks for Your IRA","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160620348","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks can bring growth and stability to your retirement account.","content":"<p>An individual retirement account (IRA) can be an important piece of your retirement plan, but you need to invest in the right stocks to make the most of the account.

They won't be the highest growth stocks, nor will they be the lowest risk, but they shouldn't be the only investments you hold in an IRA. These bring important attributes that would make them a valuable addition to almost any retirement account -- regardless of age, risk tolerance, or account type.\n\nTotal Return Level data by YCharts\nMicrosoft\nYou probably know Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) as the company that developed the Windows operating system and the Office suite, but there's a lot more going on there. The company is split into three operating segments. One is focused on business and enterprise users, and it receives roughly 32% of its revenue from software licenses for services such as Office and Outlook. The consumer-focused segment contributes a similar portion of the top line, with sales of the Windows operating system, Xbox gaming, and search engine advertising on Bing.\nIntelligent cloud is now Microsoft's largest and fastest-growing segment. Azure is gaining cloud computing market share despite competing with the likes of Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) and Amazon.com. Microsoft could have rested on its laurels after achieving a dominant market position with Windows. Instead, it has shrewdly diversified its business while accelerating revenue growth by moving into expanding industries, such as cloud computing.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMicrosoft has developed a wide competitive moat with sheer scale, diversified operations, and a strong brand. It certainly goes head-to-head with several tech heavyweights across its various segments, but these giants are less susceptible to competition from smaller disruptors. There's quantitative evidence of Microsoft's wide economic moat, too. Return on invested capital (ROIC) measures a company's ability to generate profits by investing its resources. High ROIC is evidence of efficiency and pricing power, and Microsoft is one of the ROIC leaders in its peer group.\n\nReturn on Invested Capital (Annual) data by YCharts\nHigh growth and stable operations make Microsoft a great candidate for any IRA.\nAlphabet\nThe case for Alphabet is similar to Microsoft's. Google became the dominant force in web search and digital advertising, then it wisely expanded into other growth categories. Alphabet's Android dominates the global market for mobile operating systems, providing an even deeper foothold in app distribution and advertising. YouTube is the global leader for user-generated streaming video content and another major digital advertising powerhouse under Alphabet's umbrella. The company is also a major player in cloud computing, though it trails Microsoft Azure and AWS (Amazon Web Services).\nAlphabet is dominant in several growth industries, which provides long-term stability. Alphabet's enormous research and development (R&D) budget is also among the largest in the world. That R&D, along with its extensive history of clever acquisitions, allows the tech giant to defend its competitive position and achieve high growth rates.\n\nData by YCharts\nAlphabet stock is a pretty good bet to achieve better returns than the market indexes without taking on excessive risk.\nSalesforce\nSalesforce.com (NYSE:CRM) revolutionized enterprise sales with its cloud-based platform. Its technology allows large teams of sales professionals to coordinate their work across different locations. This is extremely valuable for organizations that need to understand and manage an enormous volume of communications with existing and potential customers.\nThe customer relationship management (CRM) software industry is fragmented, but Salesforce.com is the leader by a large margin. Its 20% market share is higher than its four largest competitors combined. The company protects its leadership position with high switching costs and an ever-expanding service offering. A huge number of sales and marketing professionals spend their formative years using Salesforce.com, so they are familiar with the interface and utilities of the platform. It is expensive and inconvenient for enterprises to switch to a competitor. Revenue attrition is under 10% on an annual basis, meaning that 90% of their customers renew annual contracts. That's clear evidence of competitive advantage and a wide moat.\nSalesforce.com operates a less diversified business than Microsoft or Alphabet, but its 20% market share leaves plenty of room for growth. The CRM leader is expanding relatively rapidly as a result, and it's currently impressing customers with its improving analytics and AI tools. The company expects revenue to double over the next five years as it rides the wave of digital transformation that's impacting every industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":178,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":838379986,"gmtCreate":1629378239445,"gmtModify":1633685310726,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah!","listText":"Yeah!","text":"Yeah!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/838379986","repostId":"1144262569","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":371,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":831423693,"gmtCreate":1629342001712,"gmtModify":1633685532881,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!","listText":"Great!","text":"Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/831423693","repostId":"2160755884","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":831429724,"gmtCreate":1629341967368,"gmtModify":1633685533204,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/831429724","repostId":"2160755884","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":161,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833927507,"gmtCreate":1629199597309,"gmtModify":1633686645004,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"😙😙😙","listText":"😙😙😙","text":"😙😙😙","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/833927507","repostId":"1123297263","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1123297263","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1629192705,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1123297263?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 17:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"JPMorgan Lists The Bull And Bear Cases For Markets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1123297263","media":"zerohedge","summary":"With most banks publishing mea culpas (seeGoldmanandMorgan Stanley) for failing to predict the meltu","content":"<p>With most banks publishing mea culpas (seeGoldmanandMorgan Stanley) for failing to predict the meltup in the market that has now pushed the S&amp;P 100% higher from the pandemic bottom in March 2020 and is trading at a new all time high as of this moment, this morning JPMorgan - which has been one of the most vocally bullish banks even if it has called for outperformance of value stocks which have lost their mojo in the past 3 months as the reflation case was abandoned by markets - published its Bull and Bear Cases, including several key risks that the bank's strategist believe will define markets for the next few months.</p>\n<p><u><b>BULL CASE:</b></u></p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Earnings momentum</b>– JPM's chief equity strategist increased his EPS estimates on 7/20/21 to $205 for 2021, $230for 2022, and $250 for 2023;

all are above Street consensus\nAccelerating buybacks– As of 8/6/21 there were $477bn of announced buybacks, implying $800bn annualized number which would trail only 2018 in $-volume and exceed 2019’s $702bn\nImproving COVID environment–this will boost Consumer spending and job growth; JPM cites Marko Kolanovic' view that the effective reproduction number (Rt) is declining in 40 of 50 states\nMore stimulus– the most likely is infrastructure,which could be $550bn or ~$4T\nChina growth reboot– China may decide to add more fiscal & monetary stimulus helping boost RoW\nImproved labor markets– this would also have positive, direct impacts on GDP.\n\nBEAR CASE:\n\nCOVID expands/mutates– JPM says that there is evidence that Delta-variant is more harmful on children than other strains and the under 18 year old hospitalization rate is the highest of the pandemic (WaPo); given children under 12 are ineligible for vaccines JPM believes that \"we may see lockdowns reinstated to protect kids\"\nOnline schooling– A move to delay or cancel in-person learning is market negative given the impacts on the labor market, spending without stimulus, and sentiment;\nFed policy mistake– The bank believes that at this stage, it would be too early for the Fed to announce tapering which could mean that unemployment does not reach February 2020 levels as financial conditions tighten;\nChina’s COVID-Zero policy hurts global growth– the shutdown of the world’s 3rd busiest port in China in response to one positive case triggering global delays include at the Port of Los Angeles but generally the policy has led most economists to downgrade growth.\nGovernment Shutdown– US fiscal policy has been a tailwind throughout the pandemic but the fighting surrounding infra and the debt ceiling could lead to another shutdown according to JPM; the 2011 shutdown led to a US credit downgrade on 8/5/11 triggering a 1.29% decline in the SPX in Aug/Sept with the 10Y yield falling from 2.40% on 8/4 to 1.92% on 9/30\n\nRISKS:\n\nGeopolitics– the top risk is the situation in Afghanistan which could spill across the region potentially bringing American/Allied, Chinese, or Russian, forces to the region or a prolonged basis; at best this is a humanitarian crisis that triggers waves of refugees;\nUS Consumer fails to boost the economy– while much focus has been on stimulus and savings rates, one hidden source of level is the proliferation of Buy Now, Pay Later (“BNPL”) that grew from $9.5bn in 2019 to $19bn in 2020 (CNBC) and may grow exponentially from here given new entrants like Apple and M&A. There is evidence that BNPL represents hidden leverage and thus could mute the impact of normalizing savings rates and/or become a new source of economy-wide credit risk.\nRates/USD– a surge in yields, a plunge in dollars, or inflation expectations jumping materially could drive volatility into Equity markets; and,\nFinancial conditions– could become a headwind, stalling growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":185,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833922378,"gmtCreate":1629199296794,"gmtModify":1633686647557,"author":{"id":"3582497475138407","authorId":"3582497475138407","name":"華笑今生","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5d0427694f0c914682ddbbb1897f5acd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582497475138407","authorIdStr":"3582497475138407"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"😇😰😰","listText":"😇😰😰","text":"😇😰😰","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/833922378","repostId":"2160620348","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160620348","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1629193975,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2160620348?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-17 17:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Great Stocks for Your IRA","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160620348","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks can bring growth and stability to your retirement account.","content":"<p>An individual retirement account (IRA) can be an important piece of your retirement plan, but you need to invest in the right stocks to make the most of the account.
