In a statement, NVIDIA dismissed Qualcomm's suggestion and declared that taking Arm public again would throttle its development of new chip designs.</p>\n<p>Qualcomm's statement marks a continuation of its protests against NVIDIA's takeover of Arm, which was initially announced last September. Let's see why Qualcomm desperately wants to keep Arm out of NVIDIA's hands, and why its desire to buy a stake in Arm also reveals its greatest fear.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7fb54ba8f872a3051efd3f32259d63bc\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1125\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>Reviewing Qualcomm's weaknesses</b></p>\n<p>Qualcomm is one of the world's largest producers of mobile chips and baseband modems. It also owns the largest portfolio of cellular patents. In the earlier days of smartphones, Qualcomm comfortably dominated the mobile chip market with its Snapdragon SoCs (systems on chips), which bundle together application processors, GPUs, and modems. Its licensing business also collected royalties from every smartphone maker worldwide -- even those that didn't use Qualcomm's chips.</p>\n<p>But over the past year, Taiwanese chipmaker <b>MediaTek</b> (OTC:MDTKF) overtook Qualcomm as the world's largest mobile chipmaker. Between the first quarters of 2020 and 2021, MediaTek's global market share rose from 24% to 35%, according to Counterpoint Research, as Qualcomm's share dipped from 31% to 29%. Top smartphone makers, including <b>Apple</b>,<b>Samsung</b>, and <b>Huawei</b>, also continued to use their own first-party application processors instead of Qualcomm's chips.</p>\n<p>Antitrust regulators have also forced Qualcomm to reduce its licensing fees in several major markets, including China, over the past few years. That pressure throttled the growth of its licensing business, which had previously generated much higher-margin revenue than its chipmaking business.</p>\n<p>In the past Qualcomm pushed other mobile chipmakers, including NVIDIA and <b>Texas Instruments</b> (NASDAQ:TXN), out of the market by bundling its chips with lower licensing fees. NVIDIA and TI couldn't match those prices, so they eventually surrendered the smartphone market to Qualcomm.</p>\n<p><b>Arm is the ultimate gatekeeper of mobile chips</b></p>\n<p>In that context, it seems ironic for Qualcomm to oppose NVIDIA's takeover of Arm. However, the deal could threaten Qualcomm in two ways.</p>\n<p>First, Arm only collects royalties from its chip designs; it doesn't manufacture chips. About 95% of all mobile chips across the world -- including those produced by Qualcomm, NVIDIA, Apple, Samsung, and Huawei -- use Arm's designs.</p>\n<p>After buying Arm, NVIDIA won't need to pay Arm any royalties on its own Tegra SoCs -- which are primarily used in cars, gaming consoles, and set-top boxes -- and it will collect royalties from all the other Arm chipmakers.</p>\n<p>That shift could also enable NVIDIA to make its Tegra SoCs cheaper than Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoCs. The Tegra hasn't been aimed at smartphones since NVIDIA discontinued its Icera modem business in 2015, but the chipset could still challenge Qualcomm in markets that don't require cellular connections -- such as connected TVs and Arm-based PCs.</p>\n<p>Second, Qualcomm believes NVIDIA could eventually prevent Arm, which is often called the \"Switzerland of chips\" for its neutral positioning, from offering its most advanced chip designs to chipmakers other than NVIDIA. NVIDIA dismissed those claims, but its recent introduction of the Grace CPU -- a high-end Arm-based chip for data centers -- indicates it has big plans for Arm-based chips beyond the Tegra.</p>\n<p>Qualcomm has repeatedly failed to crack the data center market, which is dominated by<b>Intel</b>, with its higher-end Arm-based chips. However, NVIDIA might produce a much more powerful data center chip by pumping more cash into Arm -- and quietly keep those designs to itself.</p>\n<p><b>Should Qualcomm's investors worry?</b></p>\n<p>NVIDIA's takeover of Arm still faces many hurdles, including antitrust probes across the world and legal battles against the CEO of Arm China, who has refused to resign after being ousted by the board.

In a statement, NVIDIA dismissed Qualcomm's suggestion and declared that taking Arm public again would throttle its development of new chip designs.\nQualcomm's statement marks a continuation of its protests against NVIDIA's takeover of Arm, which was initially announced last September. Let's see why Qualcomm desperately wants to keep Arm out of NVIDIA's hands, and why its desire to buy a stake in Arm also reveals its greatest fear.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nReviewing Qualcomm's weaknesses\nQualcomm is one of the world's largest producers of mobile chips and baseband modems. It also owns the largest portfolio of cellular patents. In the earlier days of smartphones, Qualcomm comfortably dominated the mobile chip market with its Snapdragon SoCs (systems on chips), which bundle together application processors, GPUs, and modems. Its licensing business also collected royalties from every smartphone maker worldwide -- even those that didn't use Qualcomm's chips.\nBut over the past year, Taiwanese chipmaker MediaTek (OTC:MDTKF) overtook Qualcomm as the world's largest mobile chipmaker. Between the first quarters of 2020 and 2021, MediaTek's global market share rose from 24% to 35%, according to Counterpoint Research, as Qualcomm's share dipped from 31% to 29%. Top smartphone makers, including Apple,Samsung, and Huawei, also continued to use their own first-party application processors instead of Qualcomm's chips.\nAntitrust regulators have also forced Qualcomm to reduce its licensing fees in several major markets, including China, over the past few years. That pressure throttled the growth of its licensing business, which had previously generated much higher-margin revenue than its chipmaking business.\nIn the past Qualcomm pushed other mobile chipmakers, including NVIDIA and Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN), out of the market by bundling its chips with lower licensing fees. NVIDIA and TI couldn't match those prices, so they eventually surrendered the smartphone market to Qualcomm.\nArm is the ultimate gatekeeper of mobile chips\nIn that context, it seems ironic for Qualcomm to oppose NVIDIA's takeover of Arm. However, the deal could threaten Qualcomm in two ways.\nFirst, Arm only collects royalties from its chip designs; it doesn't manufacture chips. About 95% of all mobile chips across the world -- including those produced by Qualcomm, NVIDIA, Apple, Samsung, and Huawei -- use Arm's designs.\nAfter buying Arm, NVIDIA won't need to pay Arm any royalties on its own Tegra SoCs -- which are primarily used in cars, gaming consoles, and set-top boxes -- and it will collect royalties from all the other Arm chipmakers.\nThat shift could also enable NVIDIA to make its Tegra SoCs cheaper than Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoCs. The Tegra hasn't been aimed at smartphones since NVIDIA discontinued its Icera modem business in 2015, but the chipset could still challenge Qualcomm in markets that don't require cellular connections -- such as connected TVs and Arm-based PCs.\nSecond, Qualcomm believes NVIDIA could eventually prevent Arm, which is often called the \"Switzerland of chips\" for its neutral positioning, from offering its most advanced chip designs to chipmakers other than NVIDIA. NVIDIA dismissed those claims, but its recent introduction of the Grace CPU -- a high-end Arm-based chip for data centers -- indicates it has big plans for Arm-based chips beyond the Tegra.\nQualcomm has repeatedly failed to crack the data center market, which is dominated byIntel, with its higher-end Arm-based chips. However, NVIDIA might produce a much more powerful data center chip by pumping more cash into Arm -- and quietly keep those designs to itself.\nShould Qualcomm's investors worry?\nNVIDIA's takeover of Arm still faces many hurdles, including antitrust probes across the world and legal battles against the CEO of Arm China, who has refused to resign after being ousted by the board. Therefore, NVIDIA will likely need to make major concessions before the deal is approved.\nIn other words, a doomsday scenario for Qualcomm -- in which NVIDIA hoards all of Arm's latest designs, raises licensing fees across the board, and launches more advanced Arm chips to challenge its Snapdragon chips -- probably won't occur. NVIDIA will also likely focus on the PC gaming and data center markets instead of clashing with Qualcomm again in mobile chips.\nBuying a stake in Arm would help Qualcomm, since it could reduce is own licensing fees, but an NVIDIA takeover also won't derail its growth. For now, Qualcomm's investors should pay more attention to MediaTek, which is gradually creeping into the high-end smartphone market, and the global chip shortage, which could throttle its shipments this year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":70,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169223141,"gmtCreate":1623838694483,"gmtModify":1634027315728,"author":{"id":"3583115065771135","authorId":"3583115065771135","name":"bigjosh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc2bdb60764a0c5da0dca6883c483fb4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583115065771135","idStr":"3583115065771135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/169223141","repostId":"1105866425","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105866425","pubTimestamp":1623837565,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1105866425?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-16 17:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Crypto Lode of $100 Billion Stirs U.S. Worry Over Hidden Danger","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105866425","media":"bloomberg","summary":"Regulators are worried about hidden risks to investors and even the financial system stemming from a fast-growing corner of the crypto market meant to be immune from volatility.Their focus is on so-called stablecoins, a form of cryptocurrency that has a fixed price, typically one dollar, and is backed by real-money reserves.But in recent weeks, lawmakers and officials from theFederal Reserveand the administration have expressed alarm both in public and private that some consumers won’t actually ","content":"<p>Regulators are worried about hidden risks to investors and even the financial system stemming from a fast-growing corner of the crypto market meant to be immune from volatility.</p>\n<p>Their focus is on so-called stablecoins, a form of cryptocurrency that has a fixed price, typically one dollar, and is backed by real-money reserves.</p>\n<p>At the end of May, the total marketcapitalizationof stablecoins, which include ones offered by crypto firms Tether and Centre, broke $100 billion.</p>\n<p>But in recent weeks, lawmakers and officials from theFederal Reserveand the administration have expressed alarm both in public and private that some consumers won’t actually be protected should one of the firms not have the backing they purport to have.

Lipsky said stablecoin issuers could eventually work in tandem with international governments’ projects to issue their own digital currencies but that the U.S. and others will have to develop regulations to ensure consumers aren’t hurt.\n“The way it’s marketed is that you’re getting a dollar, but stablecoins are not always that stable,” Lipsky said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":21,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184552815,"gmtCreate":1623719661237,"gmtModify":1634029642278,"author":{"id":"3583115065771135","authorId":"3583115065771135","name":"bigjosh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc2bdb60764a0c5da0dca6883c483fb4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583115065771135","idStr":"3583115065771135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ooof","listText":"Ooof","text":"Ooof","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184552815","repostId":"2143733744","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143733744","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":1623717601,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2143733744?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Disney CEO says 40% of upfront ad sales went to streaming or digital","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143733744","media":"Reuters","summary":"LOS ANGELES, June 14 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co's advertising revenue for the upcoming fall televisi","content":"<p>LOS ANGELES, June 14 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co's advertising revenue for the upcoming fall television season rose by \"double-digits\" from the levels of 2019 before the global pandemic, Chief Executive Bob Chapek said on Monday.</p>\n<p>About 40% of sales during the \"upfront\" sales period went to streaming or digital ads, Chapek said at Credit Suisse's virtual Communications Conference.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Is Amazon stock a buy?</p>\n<p>Amazon's 30,000-square-foot stores, which will debut in California and Ohio, are less than one-third the size of Walmart's conventional outlets. They're about one-sixth the size of Walmart Supercenter stores.</p>\n<p>Walmart, the behemoth of brick-and-mortar discount stores, is dueling Amazon, the giant of online shopping, in a battle over the future of retail, e-commerce and grocery shopping.</p>\n<p>Much work remains for either company to win theAmazon vs. Walmart battle. Walmart needs to expand online operations while also managing 11,500 stores across 28 countries, of which 4,743 are in the U.S. It's in the process of redesigning 1,000 stores by the end of 2021. Its goal is to create a more streamlined and faster shopping experience for customers.</p>\n<p>At the same time, Amazon must continue its aggressive rollout of warehouse distribution centers and figure out its strategy for building physical stores.</p>\n<p>Amazon Is Making Critical Investments</p>\n<p>\"The key question from here is when/if does the current investment cycle drive evidence of share gains and margin leverage,\" RBC Capital Markets analyst Brad Erickson said in a note. \"Only time will tell, but in our view AMZN stock is making critical investments as consumers increasingly demand faster shipping which should at least maintain share gains while, importantly, growing gross profit dollars.\"</p>\n<p>Amazon reported third-quarter results on Oct. 28. Adjusted earnings fell 51% from the year-ago period to $6.12 a share. Analysts expected $8.92 a share. Revenue climbed 15% to $110.8 billion, below expectations of $111.6 billion.</p>\n<p>For its fourth quarter, Amazon forecast revenue in the range of $130 billion to $140 billion. That missed analyst estimates for $142 billion. Amazon forecast earnings before interest and taxes, called EBIT, of $1.5 billion, versus estimates of $8.1 billion.</p>\n<p>The company's cloud-computing unit, Amazon Web Services, reported revenue growth of 39% to $11.6 billion. That topped estimates for 35% cloud-computing growth.</p>\n<p>Cowen analyst John Blackledge recently raised his price target on Amazon stock to 4,500, from 4,300. He listed Amazon as one of the \"best ideas\" for 2022, in the mega-cap category.</p>\n<p><b>Amazon Introduces Numerous New Gadgets</b></p>\n<p>On Sept. 28, Amazon introduced aplethora of consumer electronics gadgets, including smart displays and a home robot, at a fall product launch event.</p>\n<p>The Seattle-based e-commerce giant unveiled several devices that leverage its Alexa voice assistant technology. They include theEcho Show 15smart display, which is designed to keep families organized, connected and entertained.</p>\n<p>Another Alexa-enabled device is Amazon's first robot, which is named Astro. The robot will act as a security guard, companion and mobile smart display. It brings together new advancements in artificial intelligence, computer vision, sensor technology, and voice and edge computing, the company said.</p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Amazon moved deeper into the television market with an all-new lineup of devices and its first Amazon-branded 4K smart TVs. The Amazon TV products go on sale in October. Amazon also introduced a 4K version of its Fire TV stick.</p>\n<p><b>Plenty Of Growth Opportunities</b></p>\n<p>Amazon entered 2021 with plenty of big growth opportunities. This included plans to expand its virtual health care program across the U.S. It is also expanding its prescription drug business.</p>\n<p>On March 17, Amazon announced that its telehealth pilot program, called Amazon Care, would expand to all of its U.S. employees and their families as well as other firms this summer. The program first launched at its Seattle headquarters 18 months ago.</p>\n<p>If Amazon can deliver more efficient health care services, the potential is enormous for fueling its growth engine — and by extension Amazon stock. Health care now comprises nearly a fifth of the U.S. economy.</p>\n<p>Amazon said the program enables workers to connect with medical professionals via chat or video conference, and connect patients with medical professionals. In addition, Amazon Care can dispatch a medical professional to a patient's home for additional care.</p>\n<p>Analysts at Jefferies give Amazon a buy rating and price target or 4,000.</p>\n<p>\"We believe low expectations following two consecutive guide-downs better positions AMZN for upside in the core retail business,\" according to a Jefferies report.</p>\n<p>\"We also see attractive growth at AWS and advertising, AMZN's two highest margin businesses, serving to more than offset near-term cost headwinds from labor shortages and supply chain disruption,\" it said.</p>\n<p><b>Tapping The Market For Prescription Drugs</b></p>\n<p>In addition, Amazon is tapping into the $350 billion market for prescription drugs. The company fired a big shot across the bow of drugstores and prescription drug wholesalers late last year when it launched Amazon Pharmacy. The new unit will offer Amazon Prime members discounts of up to 80% on generic drugs and 40% on brand medications.</p>\n<p>On May 26, Amazon announced it is acquiring iconic film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer for $8.45 billion, looking broadly expand its position in streaming video and increase the value of its Prime rewards program. The acquisition is Amazon's largest since buying Whole Foods for $13.7 billion in 2017.</p>\n<p>To get Amazon Prime, users pay an annual or monthly fee for the service and receive multiple perks. This includes free access to Amazon Video and Amazon Music. Amazon has invested billions of dollars in its film and TV operations as well as live sports.</p>\n<p>Another growth vehicle for Amazon in 2021 is advertising.

Is Amazon stock a buy?\nAmazon's 30,000-square-foot stores, which will debut in California and Ohio, are less than one-third the size of Walmart's conventional outlets. They're about one-sixth the size of Walmart Supercenter stores.\nWalmart, the behemoth of brick-and-mortar discount stores, is dueling Amazon, the giant of online shopping, in a battle over the future of retail, e-commerce and grocery shopping.\nMuch work remains for either company to win theAmazon vs. Walmart battle. Walmart needs to expand online operations while also managing 11,500 stores across 28 countries, of which 4,743 are in the U.S. It's in the process of redesigning 1,000 stores by the end of 2021. Its goal is to create a more streamlined and faster shopping experience for customers.\nAt the same time, Amazon must continue its aggressive rollout of warehouse distribution centers and figure out its strategy for building physical stores.\nAmazon Is Making Critical Investments\n\"The key question from here is when/if does the current investment cycle drive evidence of share gains and margin leverage,\" RBC Capital Markets analyst Brad Erickson said in a note. \"Only time will tell, but in our view AMZN stock is making critical investments as consumers increasingly demand faster shipping which should at least maintain share gains while, importantly, growing gross profit dollars.\"\nAmazon reported third-quarter results on Oct. 28. Adjusted earnings fell 51% from the year-ago period to $6.12 a share. Analysts expected $8.92 a share. Revenue climbed 15% to $110.8 billion, below expectations of $111.6 billion.\nFor its fourth quarter, Amazon forecast revenue in the range of $130 billion to $140 billion. That missed analyst estimates for $142 billion. Amazon forecast earnings before interest and taxes, called EBIT, of $1.5 billion, versus estimates of $8.1 billion.\nThe company's cloud-computing unit, Amazon Web Services, reported revenue growth of 39% to $11.6 billion. That topped estimates for 35% cloud-computing growth.\nCowen analyst John Blackledge recently raised his price target on Amazon stock to 4,500, from 4,300. He listed Amazon as one of the \"best ideas\" for 2022, in the mega-cap category.\nAmazon Introduces Numerous New Gadgets\nOn Sept. 28, Amazon introduced aplethora of consumer electronics gadgets, including smart displays and a home robot, at a fall product launch event.\nThe Seattle-based e-commerce giant unveiled several devices that leverage its Alexa voice assistant technology. They include theEcho Show 15smart display, which is designed to keep families organized, connected and entertained.\nAnother Alexa-enabled device is Amazon's first robot, which is named Astro. The robot will act as a security guard, companion and mobile smart display. It brings together new advancements in artificial intelligence, computer vision, sensor technology, and voice and edge computing, the company said.\nEarlier this month, Amazon moved deeper into the television market with an all-new lineup of devices and its first Amazon-branded 4K smart TVs. The Amazon TV products go on sale in October. Amazon also introduced a 4K version of its Fire TV stick.\nPlenty Of Growth Opportunities\nAmazon entered 2021 with plenty of big growth opportunities. This included plans to expand its virtual health care program across the U.S. It is also expanding its prescription drug business.\nOn March 17, Amazon announced that its telehealth pilot program, called Amazon Care, would expand to all of its U.S. employees and their families as well as other firms this summer. The program first launched at its Seattle headquarters 18 months ago.\nIf Amazon can deliver more efficient health care services, the potential is enormous for fueling its growth engine — and by extension Amazon stock. Health care now comprises nearly a fifth of the U.S. economy.\nAmazon said the program enables workers to connect with medical professionals via chat or video conference, and connect patients with medical professionals. In addition, Amazon Care can dispatch a medical professional to a patient's home for additional care.\nAnalysts at Jefferies give Amazon a buy rating and price target or 4,000.\n\"We believe low expectations following two consecutive guide-downs better positions AMZN for upside in the core retail business,\" according to a Jefferies report.\n\"We also see attractive growth at AWS and advertising, AMZN's two highest margin businesses, serving to more than offset near-term cost headwinds from labor shortages and supply chain disruption,\" it said.\nTapping The Market For Prescription Drugs\nIn addition, Amazon is tapping into the $350 billion market for prescription drugs. The company fired a big shot across the bow of drugstores and prescription drug wholesalers late last year when it launched Amazon Pharmacy. The new unit will offer Amazon Prime members discounts of up to 80% on generic drugs and 40% on brand medications.\nOn May 26, Amazon announced it is acquiring iconic film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer for $8.45 billion, looking broadly expand its position in streaming video and increase the value of its Prime rewards program. The acquisition is Amazon's largest since buying Whole Foods for $13.7 billion in 2017.\nTo get Amazon Prime, users pay an annual or monthly fee for the service and receive multiple perks. This includes free access to Amazon Video and Amazon Music. Amazon has invested billions of dollars in its film and TV operations as well as live sports.\nAnother growth vehicle for Amazon in 2021 is advertising. When looking for a product, about half of U.S. adults start their search with Amazon. More searches draw more advertisers. And as Covid-19 has caused more consumers to shop online that will keep Amazon's ad growth humming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":882,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":698696523,"gmtCreate":1640358997967,"gmtModify":1640358998049,"author":{"id":"3583115065771135","authorId":"3583115065771135","name":"bigjosh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc2bdb60764a0c5da0dca6883c483fb4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583115065771135","idStr":"3583115065771135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/698696523","repostId":"1122704248","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1122704248","pubTimestamp":1640346833,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1122704248?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-24 19:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Charts to Consider if You Want to Own an EV Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122704248","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"There's been a lot of investor excitement about electric vehicle (EV) companies.

The stock has been the subject of a virtual tug of war between retail traders and Wall Street, with each side betting on an opposite outcome in AMC's stock price. So far, the retail traders are crushing Wall Street: AMC stock is up 2,230% year to date as of Friday's close. To add fuel to that fire, the summer movie season is under way, and with coronavirus trends all moving in a positive direction in the U.S., AMC could experience a surge in viewers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4bb531efbf81e26901c99419e60ac186\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>AMC stock is up nearly 2,500% in 2021. Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Seats are filling up in AMC theaters again</h3>\n<p>The summer movie season is off to a great start with the release of two new films: <i>A Quite Place 2 </i>and<i> Cruella. </i>That's just about as good as it can get considering the circumstances. Although nearly all of AMC's theaters have reopened in the U.S, significant capacity restrictions remain.</p>\n<p>In roughly two weeks since its release, <b>Walt Disney</b>'s <i>Cruella</i> has grossed $86.8 million at the box office worldwide despite being also available on Disney+ (for an additional fee of $29.99 to subscribers). Thus far, the reasonably robust box office total, under restricted seating capacity and a simultaneous release on a streaming service, is good news for AMC.</p>\n<p>In contrast, <i>A Quiet Place 2</i> is opening under a 45-day exclusive theatrical window. Box office totals for the film, released on the same weekend as <i>Cruella,</i> come to $138 million worldwide.</p>\n<p>The outperformance of <i>A Quiet Place 2</i> could be due to the film's exclusive availability at theaters. However, it would be reasonable to expect some folks deciding to watch <i>Cruella</i> on Disney+. Still, getting visitors back inside movie theaters is a win for AMC.</p>\n<p>Moreover, <i>F9: The Fast Saga</i>, another part of the successful <i>Fast and Furious</i> film franchise, is set to be released in U.S. theaters on June 25. The ninth installment has already been successful elsewhere in the world, grossing over $250 million at the international box office.</p>\n<p>With a few more blockbusters coming into theaters soon, this could be a summer of recovery for AMC.</p>\n<h3>What this could mean for investors</h3>\n<p>That could be a huge gain for the company's efforts in removing cash flow problems. AMC burned through $312.9 million in cash in the most recent quarter. That's a rate of about $104 million per month. AMC has to pay rent on its movie theaters whether it has people in the seats or not. Since most of its costs are fixed, getting viewers in attendance generates positive cash flow for AMC even if it remains in negative net-income territory.</p>\n<p>On average, an AMC moviegoer spends 72% of the price of a ticket on food and beverage.

The stock has been the subject of a virtual tug of war between retail traders and Wall Street, with each side betting on an opposite outcome in AMC's stock price. So far, the retail traders are crushing Wall Street: AMC stock is up 2,230% year to date as of Friday's close. To add fuel to that fire, the summer movie season is under way, and with coronavirus trends all moving in a positive direction in the U.S., AMC could experience a surge in viewers.\n\nAMC stock is up nearly 2,500% in 2021. Image source: Getty Images.\nSeats are filling up in AMC theaters again\nThe summer movie season is off to a great start with the release of two new films: A Quite Place 2 and Cruella. That's just about as good as it can get considering the circumstances. Although nearly all of AMC's theaters have reopened in the U.S, significant capacity restrictions remain.\nIn roughly two weeks since its release, Walt Disney's Cruella has grossed $86.8 million at the box office worldwide despite being also available on Disney+ (for an additional fee of $29.99 to subscribers). Thus far, the reasonably robust box office total, under restricted seating capacity and a simultaneous release on a streaming service, is good news for AMC.\nIn contrast, A Quiet Place 2 is opening under a 45-day exclusive theatrical window. Box office totals for the film, released on the same weekend as Cruella, come to $138 million worldwide.\nThe outperformance of A Quiet Place 2 could be due to the film's exclusive availability at theaters. However, it would be reasonable to expect some folks deciding to watch Cruella on Disney+. Still, getting visitors back inside movie theaters is a win for AMC.\nMoreover, F9: The Fast Saga, another part of the successful Fast and Furious film franchise, is set to be released in U.S. theaters on June 25. The ninth installment has already been successful elsewhere in the world, grossing over $250 million at the international box office.\nWith a few more blockbusters coming into theaters soon, this could be a summer of recovery for AMC.\nWhat this could mean for investors\nThat could be a huge gain for the company's efforts in removing cash flow problems. AMC burned through $312.9 million in cash in the most recent quarter. That's a rate of about $104 million per month. AMC has to pay rent on its movie theaters whether it has people in the seats or not. Since most of its costs are fixed, getting viewers in attendance generates positive cash flow for AMC even if it remains in negative net-income territory.\nOn average, an AMC moviegoer spends 72% of the price of a ticket on food and beverage. Add in the fact that AMC makes more in operating profit from viewers buying food and beverage than it does from ticket sales, and AMC could be generating positive cash flow from operations by the end of the second quarter. That is, of course, if there are no further disruptions from a resurgence of coronavirus cases.\nThe increase in cash flow, combined with the $1.246 billion in equity capital it has raised in recent months, should go a long way toward shoring up AMC's balance sheet and giving the battered movie theater chain more time to recover from the devastations of the coronavirus pandemic. And that should give the millions of retail investors rooting for the success of AMC stock something to cheer about.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":14,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":696441212,"gmtCreate":1640755749686,"gmtModify":1640755749816,"author":{"id":"3583115065771135","authorId":"3583115065771135","name":"bigjosh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc2bdb60764a0c5da0dca6883c483fb4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583115065771135","idStr":"3583115065771135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/696441212","repostId":"1121988660","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121988660","pubTimestamp":1640750325,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1121988660?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-29 11:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood's prediction for a 20% gain in 2021 sours as Ark's flagship fund sees worst return since inception","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121988660","media":"Businessinsider","summary":"Cathie Wood's expectation for a 20% gain in her Ark Invest flagship fund didn't pan out this year.\nA","content":"<ul>\n <li>Cathie Wood's expectation for a 20% gain in her Ark Invest flagship fund didn't pan out this year.</li>\n <li>Ark Invest's Disruptive Innovation ETF instead has fallen more than 20% in 2021, representing its worst return since inception.</li>\n <li>Wood now expects the growth-oriented ETF to deliver a compounded annual growth rate of up to 40% over the next 5 years.</li>\n</ul>\n<hr>\n<p>It's been a difficult year for investors in Ark Invest's flagshipDisruptive Innovation ETF, with the fund on track for its worst year of performance since launching in 2014.</p>\n<p>That's after the ETF delivered sky-high returns of 150% in 2020, helping Ark Invest amass more than $17 billion in assets under management in its flagship fund.

They also say the growing size of stablecoins has created a situation where huge amounts of U.S. dollar-equivalent coins are being exchanged without touching the U.S. banking system, potentially blinding regulators to illicit finance.</p>\n<p>“They’re dangerous to both their users and, as they grow, to the broader financial system,” said Lev Menand, an academic fellow at Columbia Law School, in testimony to a Senate Banking subcommittee last week.</p>\n<p>Administration officials have expressed concern to representatives of stablecoin issuers in recent weeks that consumers don’t understand that money held in a stablecoin isn’t protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and that, in some cases, they could potentially lose money on a stablecoin, according to a person familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to describe confidential discussions. The person said officials are also worried that criminals could use stablecoins to transfer money without having to touch a bank, meaning that they could avoid protections meant to catch money laundering and other illicit activity.</p>\n<p>Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren compared stablecoins to “wildcat notes” issued by poorly capitalized banks in the 19th century that later stuck many of their holders with large losses, speaking at a Senate Banking subcommitteehearinglast week. Warren said that if the Federal Reserve were to issue its own digital currency, consumers could get the benefits of a stablecoin without that kind of risk.</p>\n<p>The U.S. and other nations are already considering launching their own digital currencies. Those coins, known as central bank digital currencies, would be direct competitors to stablecoins. Later this year, theFederal Reserve Bank of Bostonplans to publish research and open-source code showing technology that could underpin a digital dollar. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has said lawmakers will likely need to weigh in for the project to advance and that the process could take years.</p>\n<p>Last month, in astatementon the Fed’s progress in researching a CBDC, Powell said that stablecoins could pose risks to the financial system. “As stablecoins’ use increases, so must our attention to the appropriate regulatory and oversight framework,” Powell said.</p>\n<p>Days after Powell’s statement, Fed Governor Lael Brainard in aspeechgave her own warning, saying that widening use of stablecoins could fragment the financial system, potentially raising costs for U.S. households and businesses.</p>\n<p>Brainard and other Fed officials have warned that if privately-issued stablecoins become widely used, but consumers then lose confidence in them, it could result in the kind of “run on the bank” panic that threatens financial stability.</p>\n<p>As cryptocurrency trading has exploded, so has the use of stablecoins. Right now, investors primarily use stablecoins as a place to park money on cryptocurrency exchanges without having to transfer cash back to their bank accounts. The largest by far, with a market capitalization of $62.6 billion, is Tether, which is incorporated in Hong Kong. U.S. Dollar Coin, or USDC, has a market value of $23.8 billion and was created by theCentre Consortium, a partnership between crypto payments firmCircle Internet Financial Inc.and U.S. crypto exchangeCoinbase Global Inc.</p>\n<p>Early stablecoin controversies circled aroundTether International Ltd., which originally said its coins were completely backed by cash. In February, New York’s attorney generalsaidthe company for years didn’t actually have the cash it said it did and banned Tether from trading with New York residents. Now the company says Tether’s coin is backed not just by cash, but by assets including commercial paper, corporate bonds and precious metals. The Centre Consortium says each U.S. Dollar Coin is backed by a dollar held in a bank account.</p>\n<p>“Tether embraces transparency and regulation,” said Tether General Counsel Stuart Hoegner, in a statement, noting that the company is registered as a money-services business with the Treasury Department. Hoegner said Tether doesn’t currently accept U.S. customers and is pursuing audits for past years of Tether’s reserves. “We continue to look for avenues of regulation globally and are pursuing regimes in several countries,” he said.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63a81696d4533f7e6c4d6bf3f651b8bc\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"604\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Breakdown of Tether’s Reserves</span></p>\n<p>Centre didn’t respond to a request for comment.</p>\n<p>Other than continuing work on a potential central bank digital currency and increasing what stablecoin firms have to disclose to consumers, it’s unclear what regulators can do to slow stablecoins’ rapid growth.

They also say the growing size of stablecoins has created a situation where huge amounts of U.S. dollar-equivalent coins are being exchanged without touching the U.S. banking system, potentially blinding regulators to illicit finance.\n“They’re dangerous to both their users and, as they grow, to the broader financial system,” said Lev Menand, an academic fellow at Columbia Law School, in testimony to a Senate Banking subcommittee last week.\nAdministration officials have expressed concern to representatives of stablecoin issuers in recent weeks that consumers don’t understand that money held in a stablecoin isn’t protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and that, in some cases, they could potentially lose money on a stablecoin, according to a person familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to describe confidential discussions. The person said officials are also worried that criminals could use stablecoins to transfer money without having to touch a bank, meaning that they could avoid protections meant to catch money laundering and other illicit activity.\nMassachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren compared stablecoins to “wildcat notes” issued by poorly capitalized banks in the 19th century that later stuck many of their holders with large losses, speaking at a Senate Banking subcommitteehearinglast week. Warren said that if the Federal Reserve were to issue its own digital currency, consumers could get the benefits of a stablecoin without that kind of risk.\nThe U.S. and other nations are already considering launching their own digital currencies. Those coins, known as central bank digital currencies, would be direct competitors to stablecoins. Later this year, theFederal Reserve Bank of Bostonplans to publish research and open-source code showing technology that could underpin a digital dollar. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has said lawmakers will likely need to weigh in for the project to advance and that the process could take years.\nLast month, in astatementon the Fed’s progress in researching a CBDC, Powell said that stablecoins could pose risks to the financial system. “As stablecoins’ use increases, so must our attention to the appropriate regulatory and oversight framework,” Powell said.\nDays after Powell’s statement, Fed Governor Lael Brainard in aspeechgave her own warning, saying that widening use of stablecoins could fragment the financial system, potentially raising costs for U.S. households and businesses.\nBrainard and other Fed officials have warned that if privately-issued stablecoins become widely used, but consumers then lose confidence in them, it could result in the kind of “run on the bank” panic that threatens financial stability.\nAs cryptocurrency trading has exploded, so has the use of stablecoins. Right now, investors primarily use stablecoins as a place to park money on cryptocurrency exchanges without having to transfer cash back to their bank accounts. The largest by far, with a market capitalization of $62.6 billion, is Tether, which is incorporated in Hong Kong. U.S. Dollar Coin, or USDC, has a market value of $23.8 billion and was created by theCentre Consortium, a partnership between crypto payments firmCircle Internet Financial Inc.and U.S. crypto exchangeCoinbase Global Inc.\nEarly stablecoin controversies circled aroundTether International Ltd., which originally said its coins were completely backed by cash. In February, New York’s attorney generalsaidthe company for years didn’t actually have the cash it said it did and banned Tether from trading with New York residents. Now the company says Tether’s coin is backed not just by cash, but by assets including commercial paper, corporate bonds and precious metals. The Centre Consortium says each U.S. Dollar Coin is backed by a dollar held in a bank account.\n“Tether embraces transparency and regulation,” said Tether General Counsel Stuart Hoegner, in a statement, noting that the company is registered as a money-services business with the Treasury Department. Hoegner said Tether doesn’t currently accept U.S. customers and is pursuing audits for past years of Tether’s reserves. “We continue to look for avenues of regulation globally and are pursuing regimes in several countries,” he said.\nBreakdown of Tether’s Reserves\nCentre didn’t respond to a request for comment.\nOther than continuing work on a potential central bank digital currency and increasing what stablecoin firms have to disclose to consumers, it’s unclear what regulators can do to slow stablecoins’ rapid growth. Timothy Massad, former chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, in a Mayop-edsaid theSecurities and Exchange Commissioncould regulate stablecoins in a similar way to money-market funds, which aren’t FDIC-insured and faced stress during the 2008 financial crisis.\nFor more:Crypto’sShadow Currency Surges Past Deposits of Most U.S. Banks\nOne billintroducedin Congress last year would require stablecoin issuers to have a banking charter and get approval from the Fed, among other agencies, though the bill is unlikely to become law.\nThe most immediate way that some stablecoins might come under attack is from enforcers, such as what happened with the New York attorney general, who could pursue issuers for lying to consumers, saidJosh Lipsky, director of the Atlantic Council’s GeoEconomics Center. Lipsky said stablecoin issuers could eventually work in tandem with international governments’ projects to issue their own digital currencies but that the U.S. and others will have to develop regulations to ensure consumers aren’t hurt.\n“The way it’s marketed is that you’re getting a dollar, but stablecoins are not always that stable,” Lipsky said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":21,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182485562,"gmtCreate":1623598843056,"gmtModify":1634031297704,"author":{"id":"3583115065771135","authorId":"3583115065771135","name":"bigjosh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc2bdb60764a0c5da0dca6883c483fb4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3583115065771135","idStr":"3583115065771135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Soar","listText":"Soar","text":"Soar","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/182485562","repostId":"1185020128","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1185020128","pubTimestamp":1623537503,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1185020128?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-13 06:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Meme Stock Soars 1,000% To Lead These Two Top Small Cap Stock Plays","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1185020128","media":"investors","summary":"GameStop may be the top holding in SPDR S&P 600 Small Cap Value, but that's not the only reason the ","content":"<p>GameStop may be the top holding in SPDR S&P 600 Small Cap Value, but that's not the only reason the ETF is beating its growth-stock counterpart.</p>\n<p>The $4.2 billion value fund tracks the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index (SLYV), composed of stocks with the strongest value traits based on book value to price ratio, earnings to price ratio, and sales to price ratio.

To add fuel to that fire, the summer movie season is under way, and with coronavirus trends all moving in a positive direction in the U.S., AMC could experience a surge in viewers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4bb531efbf81e26901c99419e60ac186\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>AMC stock is up nearly 2,500% in 2021.
