That all but guarantees slimmer profits. The world’s top 10 carmakers had an operating margin of just 5.2% in 2020, a fraction of the 34% enjoyed by the tech industry’s leaders, data compiled by Bloomberg show.</p>\n<p>But for Apple and other behemoths that are diving into self-driving tech or have grand plans for their own cars, that push isn’t just about breaking into a new market — it’s about defending valuable turf.</p>\n<p>“Why are tech companies pushing into autonomous driving? Because they can, and because they have to,” said Chris Gerdes, co-director of the Center for Automotive Research at Stanford University. “There are business models that people aren’t aware of.”</p>\n<p>A market projected to top $2 trillion by 2030 is hard to ignore. By then, more than 58 million vehicles globally are expected to be driving themselves. And Big Tech has the means — from artificial intelligence and massive data, to chipmaking and engineering — to disrupt this century-old industry.</p>\n<p>What’s at stake, essentially, is something even more valuable than profitability: the last unclaimed corner of consumers’ attention during their waking hours.</p>\n<p>The amount of time people spend in cars, especially in the U.S., is significant. Americans were behind the wheel for 307.8 hours in 2016, or around six hours a week, according to the latest available data by the American Automobile Association.</p>\n<p>That’s a fair chunk of someone’s life not spent using apps on an iPhone, searching on Google or scrolling mindlessly through Instagram. Any company that’s able to free up that time in a meaningful way will also have a good chance of capturing it.</p>\n<p>The world’s inexorable shift toward intelligent cars that are better for the environment is impossible to miss. If governments haven’t already declared plans to be carbon neutral by, in some cases, the end of this decade, there’s plenty of research that shows combustion-engine cars are going the way of the dinosaurs.</p>\n<p>BloombergNEF’s annual Electric Vehicle Outlook, published earlier this month, sees global oil demand from all road transport peaking in just six years, assuming no new policy measures are introduced. By 2025, EVs hit 10% of global passenger vehicle sales, rising to 28% in 2030 and 58% in 2040. Eventually, autonomous vehicles will reshape automotive and freight markets entirely.</p>\n<p>Against that backdrop, it’s unsurprising that after years of chipping away at self-driving cars, tech companies have been stepping up their activities and investments in earnest.</p>\n<p>Autonomous cars are only as good as the human drivers they learn from — so the people who teach these systems need to be excellent drivers themselves.</p>\n<p>Over the past several months, Apple has prioritized plans for the “Apple Car” after previously focusing on making an autonomous driving system, Bloomberg has reported. That’s fueled intense speculation over which automakers and suppliers the company behind the iPhone may partner with to realize its vision. While Apple has recently lost multiple top managers on the project, it still has hundreds of engineers in its larger car group.</p>\n<p>There’s also Waymo, which is in talks to raise as much as $4 billion to accelerate its efforts. Founded in 2009, the business that was formerly Google’s self-driving car project was the first to have a fully autonomous ride on public roads. It became an independent company in 2017 under Google parent Alphabet Inc., launched an autonomous ride-hailing service in Phoenix in 2018 and last year began testing self-driving trucks in New Mexico and Texas.</p>\n<p>Microsoft Corp., too, is backing several autonomous initiatives, partnering with Volkswagen AG on self-driving car software, possibly with a view to creating offices-on-the-go.</p>\n<p>Amazon.com Inc., meanwhile, has thrown its weight behind Rivian Automotive Inc., which is making electric trucks, and last year bought driverless startup Zoox Inc. It may look to include autonomous rides as part of its Prime membership program.</p>\n<p>“Each of these companies, including Facebook, want to be a part of or even control and dominate, every part of citizens’ lives,” said Professor Raj Rajkumar, who leads the robotics institute at Carnegie Mellon University. “From their business point of view, if you don’t, somebody else can and probably will, and eventually your current domain of influence fades away.”</p>\n<p>Although Apple has dominated phones, tablets and smartwatches and put up a decent fight over computers for the past few decades, it’s been a laggard in the artificial intelligence, voice and smart-speaker spaces, areas now led by Google and Amazon.</p>\n<p>The company would benefit from the release of a breakthrough new product. While it’s had successes with the watch, released in 2015, and services, such as Apple TV, Apple Arcade and Apple Music, which are now a major new source of revenue, nothing has come close to the success of the iPhone, which has redefined entire industries and become Apple’s most lucrative product since its 2007 release.</p>\n<p>At Google, executives have long framed investments in autonomous cars, along with moonshots in biotech and drones, as risks that venture capital and less deep-pocketed firms don’t, or won’t, take. Waymo has discussed potential business models around taxi services and long-haul logistics.</p>\n<p>The onslaught has automotive incumbents girding for battle. Industry titans such as Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. have stepped up their own rival efforts in self-driving. The Japanese automaker is building an entire city around autonomous driving at the base of Mount Fuji while South Korea’s Hyundai Motor Co. is committing $7.4 billion to make EVs in the U.S. and develop unmanned flying taxis.</p>\n<p>In China, it’s the biggest tech companies throwing their hats in the ring. Giants from Huawei Technologies Co. to Baidu Inc. have pledged to plow almost $19 billion into electric and self-driving vehicle ventures this year alone. Smartphone giant Xiaomi Corp. and even Apple’s Taiwanese manufacturing partner Foxconn have joined the fray, forging tie-ups and unveiling their own carmaking plans.</p>\n<p>Automakers defending their turf is understandable but Takehito Sumikawa, a partner at McKinsey &amp; Co.’s Tokyo office who advises on future mobility, says it’s a “natural extension” for tech providers to enter the autonomous driving space. “They’re betting they can do a better job at disrupting the industry.”</p>\n<p>The existing businesses of Amazon, Apple and Google already require them to become proficient at AI, handling massive amounts of data and designing complex systems. Essentially, they’ve made the upfront investment in core technologies needed to design and build driverless cars, and they now have legions of engineers eager to solve more complex problems, not to mention an appetite for disruption.</p>\n<p>But perhaps one of the clearest examples of a tech company with the ability to change up its own stomping ground is Amazon. The web retailer would benefit hugely from the lower costs of delivering packages to homes using cars that drive themselves.</p>\n<p>Amazon also has a habit of transforming its own tools into businesses that can be sold to a wider swath of customers, much like it did with cloud computing, which was originally created to support the company’s online retail operations. Having morphed it into a computing and data-storage platform used by Netflix Inc., the U.S. government and others, Amazon Web Services is now a $45.4 billion enterprise.</p>\n<p>While the coronavirus pandemic put a temporary damper on consumers’ appetite for new cars, demand has roared back. A semiconductor shortage means many traditional players can’t keep production lines moving fast enough. This year alone, the global automotive market is projected to rebound by 9.7% to $2.7 trillion, according to IBIS World.</p>\n<p>“Even for companies like Apple and Google, this is a massive market,” Rajkumar said. “CFOs and CEOs literally drool, since first movers are likely to have a major edge. Each of these companies wants to be the predator, and not become the prey.”</p>","source":"lsy1612507957220","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple’s Car Obsession Is All About Taking Eyes Off the Road</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple’s Car Obsession Is All About Taking Eyes Off the Road\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-25 14:53 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/big-tech-car-obsession-taking-160005986.html><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>(Bloomberg) -- At first glance, the forays Apple Inc., Google and other technology giants are making into the world of cars don’t appear to be particularly lucrative.\nBuilding automobiles requires ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/big-tech-car-obsession-taking-160005986.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果","AMZN":"亚马逊","GOOG":"谷歌"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/big-tech-car-obsession-taking-160005986.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1136977070","content_text":"(Bloomberg) -- At first glance, the forays Apple Inc., Google and other technology giants are making into the world of cars don’t appear to be particularly lucrative.\nBuilding automobiles requires factories, equipment and an army of people to design and assemble large hunks of steel, plastic and glass.

Each of these companies wants to be the predator, and not become the prey.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":126750382,"gmtCreate":1624585612146,"gmtModify":1631889203713,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584354793877671","idStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohh","listText":"Ohh","text":"Ohh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/126750382","repostId":"1160571601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1160571601","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624582048,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1160571601?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 08:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation turns positive for the year as growth stocks surge","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1160571601","media":"CNBC","summary":"After a tumultuous first half of 2021, Cathie Wood’s flagship fund —ARK Innovation— just went positi","content":"<div>\n<p>After a tumultuous first half of 2021, Cathie Wood’s flagship fund —ARK Innovation— just went positive for the year as investors begin to give growth names a nod.\nThe actively managed ETF rose 1.5% on...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/24/cathie-woods-ark-innovation-turns-positive-for-the-year.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The innovation fund has rallied 5.4% this week and over 11% this month.\nSince bottoming on May 13 — a day after thehottest inflation reading since 2008— the fund is up about 25%.\n\nARK Innovation started to suffer in late February when a striking rotation from growth to value occurred in the market. However, fears of higher interest rates triggered by inflation appear overblown, as the U.S. 10-year Treasury sits around 1.5% after hitting a high near 1.8% at the end of March.\nWith interest rates continuing to come down and the threat of inflation under control, investors are now shifting back to their favorite growth names, and Wood’s Ark Invest is back on an upswing.\nWood called the comeback earlier this month. She told clients“the rotation back to growth is probably close at hand”on June 8.\nWood’s theory is that consumer spending is going to make a major move to the services sector after dominating in the goods sector during the coronavirus pandemic. Wood presciently said this would spur a decline in commodity prices and cyclical stocks, setting the stage for outperformance in innovation names.\nTo be sure, the fund has a long way to go to breach its record high from February. The ETF sits about 21% from its 52-week high.\nPower in ARK’s top holdings\nWood — known for taking advantage of dips in her highest conviction picks — spent the last few volatile months doubling down on her top holdings. Recently, Wood — a longtime bitcoin bull — has taken advantage of weakness inDraftKings,CoinbaseandGrayscale Bitcoin Trust.\n“We have capitalized on this volatility by selling names that have held up better than others and moving into names ... those that we have a high degree of conviction and those that are more opportunistic,” shesaid during an ARK webinarthis month. Wood told CNBC last month she now expects a 25% annual rate of return in her top holdings over the next five years.\nSince April’s hot inflation report released on May 12, Wood’s top holdings bottomed out and have led the ETF higher.\nCNBC Pro arranged the fund’s holding based on market valuation and screened for how much the equities have gained since then.\nShares of Tesla— the fund’s largest holding — are up roughly 15% since mid-May as of Wednesday’s close.\nAs of Wednesday’s close,Teladoc Health and Shopify are up about 20% and 43%, respectively, since the May bottom.Squarehas gained 21% andZoom Videohas popped 30% since then.TwilioandUnity Softwareare up 37% and 40% since the May bottom, respectively. DocuSign is up a whopping 52% in that time.\nWood made a name for herself after a banner 2020 where ARK Innovation returned nearly 150%.\nARK Innovation has seen roughly $7 billion of investor money enter the ETF in 2021, according to FactSet. In the past year, the $15 billion in fund flows have rushed Wood’s flagship fund.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":126724174,"gmtCreate":1624585556698,"gmtModify":1631889203717,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3584354793877671","idStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/126724174","repostId":"2146256160","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146256160","kind":"highlight","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":1624584636,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2146256160?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 09:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"BlackBerry first-quarter revenue beats expectations, shares rise","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146256160","media":"Reuters","summary":"June 24 (Reuters) - Canadian security software supplier Blackberry Ltd beat Wall Street estimates fo","content":"<p>June 24 (Reuters) - Canadian security software supplier Blackberry Ltd beat Wall Street estimates for quarterly revenue on Thursday, lifted by a rebound in demand for its QNX operating software and cybersecurity products.</p>\n<p>U.S.-listed shares of the company were up 1.3% at $12.84 in extended trading.</p>\n<p>Revenue fell to $174 million in the first quarter ended May 31 from $206 million a year earlier, but beat analysts' average estimate of $171.25 million, according to Refinitiv-IBES data.</p>\n<p>Demand for cybersecurity services have been on the rise as businesses increasingly migrate to cloud-based computing to support remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>A boom in electric-vehicle sales has also bolstered demand for BlackBerry's QNX software, primarily used in cars.</p>\n<p>Net loss in the quarter narrowed to $62 million, or 11 cents per share, from $636 million, or $1.14 cents per share, a year earlier.</p>\n<p>The company was also <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the \"meme stocks\" that received major attention from investors after a social-media driven retail short-squeeze frenzy.

Unemployment is going to be low. Wage growth is going to be strong.”\n“I wouldn’t count on rates staying at 1.5% for very long given what’s going on. Inflation is going to be higher than it was pre-pandemic. The Fed has been struggling for at least a quarter of a century to get inflation up, and I think they’ll be able to get that.”\nZandi also spoke about potential selloffs in commodities and cryptocurrency sectors, as well as issues the market is facing with higher mortgage rates. The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage moved to 3.25% following the last Fed meeting.\n“Markets were somewhat surprised by the Fed’s rate hike outlook.

Mining harms the environment\nBitcoin mining refers to the energy-intensive process required to produce new coins and ensure the payment network is secure and verified.\nThe electricity used when transactions are validated on the bitcoin blockchain, as well as the mining process, is “certainly not good for the environment,” Prasad said.\nTesla CEO Elon Musk said last month that his electric car company will stop accepting bitcoin as a form of payment because of environmental concerns, causing the price of bitcoin to drop 5% in a matter of minutes.\nHe has since made an about-turn and said in a tweet on Sunday that Tesla will accept bitcoin in transactions if it can confirm “reasonable” and “clean energy usage by miners.”\nCrypto miners use purpose-built computers to solve complex mathematical equations that effectively enable a coin transaction to go through. The miners are rewarded for their efforts by being paid in the cryptocurrency.\nHowever, the entire process used to create a bitcoin requires a lot of energy and can consume more power than entire countries such as Finland and Switzerland, according to the Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index.\nOn the other hand,Ethereum— the second-largest cryptocurrency sometimes viewed as an alternative to bitcoin — is coming up with a different method of mining that requires less energy, Prasad pointed out.\nCalled“proof of stake,”it is the underlying mechanism for ethereum that activates so-called “validators” on the network, if they can prove that they hold ether, or a “stake.”\nUltimately, it should remove the need for vast amounts of computing power needed to validate transactions and the Ethereum Foundation claims it will use 99.95% less energy than before.\n“That is going to be much less energy intensive, and it could deliver a lot of the benefits that bitcoin was supposed to deliver. It could also make transactions much cheaper and quicker,” said Prasad.\nHowever, it’s not there yet, he added.\n2. Not so anonymous after all\nEarlier this month, U.S. law enforcement officials said they were able to recover $2.3 million in bitcoin paid to a criminal cybergroup involved in the ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline in May.\nThe FBI said its agents were able to identify a virtual currency wallet that the hackers used to collect payment from Colonial Pipeline.\n“The main idea of bitcoin… was to provide pseudonymity,” said Prasad. “But it turns out that if you use bitcoin a lot, and especially if you use Bitcoin to get any real goods and services, then it becomes possible eventually to link your address or your physical identity to your digital identity.”\nWhat’s interesting, he said, is that there are other cryptocurrencies trying to fix this and offer more anonymity. He highlighted Monero and Zcash as some examples.\n“So bitcoin really has set off something of a search for a better alternative and people seem to be on the lookout for a medium of exchange that does not require them to go through a trusted institution like the government or a commercial bank — but it’s not quite there yet,” Prasad said.\n3. Doesn’t work well as a currency\nIn theory, bitcoin was supposed to provide an anonymous and efficient medium of exchange but “it hasn’t worked in that respect,” said the economics professor.\nRather, it’s “slow and cumbersome” to use bitcoin to pay for goods and services, and the market is very volatile, Prasad said.\nBitcoin is prone to wide swings in volatility, as seen by its 30% plunge in a single day last month.\n“So you could take a bitcoin to a store and one day, get a cup of coffee and another day, with the same bitcoin, be able to treat yourself to a lavish meal. So that doesn’t work well for the medium of exchange,” he said.\nBitcoin has become a speculative asset for people who hope it will appreciate in value, rather than because they want to use it as a payment mode, Prasad said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":262,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":126750382,"gmtCreate":1624585612146,"gmtModify":1631889203713,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584354793877671","authorIdStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohh","listText":"Ohh","text":"Ohh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/126750382","repostId":"1160571601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1160571601","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624582048,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1160571601?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 08:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation turns positive for the year as growth stocks surge","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1160571601","media":"CNBC","summary":"After a tumultuous first half of 2021, Cathie Wood’s flagship fund —ARK Innovation— just went positi","content":"<div>\n<p>After a tumultuous first half of 2021, Cathie Wood’s flagship fund —ARK Innovation— just went positive for the year as investors begin to give growth names a nod.\nThe actively managed ETF rose 1.5% on...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/24/cathie-woods-ark-innovation-turns-positive-for-the-year.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The innovation fund has rallied 5.4% this week and over 11% this month.\nSince bottoming on May 13 — a day after thehottest inflation reading since 2008— the fund is up about 25%.\n\nARK Innovation started to suffer in late February when a striking rotation from growth to value occurred in the market. However, fears of higher interest rates triggered by inflation appear overblown, as the U.S. 10-year Treasury sits around 1.5% after hitting a high near 1.8% at the end of March.\nWith interest rates continuing to come down and the threat of inflation under control, investors are now shifting back to their favorite growth names, and Wood’s Ark Invest is back on an upswing.\nWood called the comeback earlier this month. She told clients“the rotation back to growth is probably close at hand”on June 8.\nWood’s theory is that consumer spending is going to make a major move to the services sector after dominating in the goods sector during the coronavirus pandemic. Wood presciently said this would spur a decline in commodity prices and cyclical stocks, setting the stage for outperformance in innovation names.\nTo be sure, the fund has a long way to go to breach its record high from February. The ETF sits about 21% from its 52-week high.\nPower in ARK’s top holdings\nWood — known for taking advantage of dips in her highest conviction picks — spent the last few volatile months doubling down on her top holdings. Recently, Wood — a longtime bitcoin bull — has taken advantage of weakness inDraftKings,CoinbaseandGrayscale Bitcoin Trust.\n“We have capitalized on this volatility by selling names that have held up better than others and moving into names ... those that we have a high degree of conviction and those that are more opportunistic,” shesaid during an ARK webinarthis month. Wood told CNBC last month she now expects a 25% annual rate of return in her top holdings over the next five years.\nSince April’s hot inflation report released on May 12, Wood’s top holdings bottomed out and have led the ETF higher.\nCNBC Pro arranged the fund’s holding based on market valuation and screened for how much the equities have gained since then.\nShares of Tesla— the fund’s largest holding — are up roughly 15% since mid-May as of Wednesday’s close.\nAs of Wednesday’s close,Teladoc Health and Shopify are up about 20% and 43%, respectively, since the May bottom.Squarehas gained 21% andZoom Videohas popped 30% since then.TwilioandUnity Softwareare up 37% and 40% since the May bottom, respectively. DocuSign is up a whopping 52% in that time.\nWood made a name for herself after a banner 2020 where ARK Innovation returned nearly 150%.\nARK Innovation has seen roughly $7 billion of investor money enter the ETF in 2021, according to FactSet. In the past year, the $15 billion in fund flows have rushed Wood’s flagship fund.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":120679848,"gmtCreate":1624323098484,"gmtModify":1631889203718,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584354793877671","authorIdStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/120679848","repostId":"1191349655","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":125611231,"gmtCreate":1624671259824,"gmtModify":1631889203705,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584354793877671","authorIdStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohhh","listText":"Ohhh","text":"Ohhh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/125611231","repostId":"2146026425","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":121,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":122143948,"gmtCreate":1624607232084,"gmtModify":1631889203710,"author":{"id":"3584354793877671","authorId":"3584354793877671","name":"Rui59","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584354793877671","authorIdStr":"3584354793877671"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohh","listText":"Ohh","text":"Ohh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/122143948","repostId":"1136977070","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1136977070","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624604005,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1136977070?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 14:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple’s Car Obsession Is All About Taking Eyes Off the Road","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1136977070","media":"Bloomberg","summary":" -- At first glance, the forays Apple Inc., Google and other technology giants are making into the world of cars don’t appear to be particularly lucrative.Building automobiles requires factories, equipment and an army of people to design and assemble large hunks of steel, plastic and glass.

Founded in 2009, the business that was formerly Google’s self-driving car project was the first to have a fully autonomous ride on public roads. It became an independent company in 2017 under Google parent Alphabet Inc., launched an autonomous ride-hailing service in Phoenix in 2018 and last year began testing self-driving trucks in New Mexico and Texas.</p>\n<p>Microsoft Corp., too, is backing several autonomous initiatives, partnering with Volkswagen AG on self-driving car software, possibly with a view to creating offices-on-the-go.</p>\n<p>Amazon.com Inc., meanwhile, has thrown its weight behind Rivian Automotive Inc., which is making electric trucks, and last year bought driverless startup Zoox Inc.

While it’s had successes with the watch, released in 2015, and services, such as Apple TV, Apple Arcade and Apple Music, which are now a major new source of revenue, nothing has come close to the success of the iPhone, which has redefined entire industries and become Apple’s most lucrative product since its 2007 release.</p>\n<p>At Google, executives have long framed investments in autonomous cars, along with moonshots in biotech and drones, as risks that venture capital and less deep-pocketed firms don’t, or won’t, take.

The Japanese automaker is building an entire city around autonomous driving at the base of Mount Fuji while South Korea’s Hyundai Motor Co. is committing $7.4 billion to make EVs in the U.S. and develop unmanned flying taxis.</p>\n<p>In China, it’s the biggest tech companies throwing their hats in the ring. Giants from Huawei Technologies Co. to Baidu Inc. have pledged to plow almost $19 billion into electric and self-driving vehicle ventures this year alone.

A semiconductor shortage means many traditional players can’t keep production lines moving fast enough. This year alone, the global automotive market is projected to rebound by 9.7% to $2.7 trillion, according to IBIS World.</p>\n<p>“Even for companies like Apple and Google, this is a massive market,” Rajkumar said. “CFOs and CEOs literally drool, since first movers are likely to have a major edge.

Mining harms the environment\nBitcoin mining refers to the energy-intensive process required to produce new coins and ensure the payment network is secure and verified.\nThe electricity used when transactions are validated on the bitcoin blockchain, as well as the mining process, is “certainly not good for the environment,” Prasad said.\nTesla CEO Elon Musk said last month that his electric car company will stop accepting bitcoin as a form of payment because of environmental concerns, causing the price of bitcoin to drop 5% in a matter of minutes.\nHe has since made an about-turn and said in a tweet on Sunday that Tesla will accept bitcoin in transactions if it can confirm “reasonable” and “clean energy usage by miners.”\nCrypto miners use purpose-built computers to solve complex mathematical equations that effectively enable a coin transaction to go through. The miners are rewarded for their efforts by being paid in the cryptocurrency.\nHowever, the entire process used to create a bitcoin requires a lot of energy and can consume more power than entire countries such as Finland and Switzerland, according to the Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index.\nOn the other hand,Ethereum— the second-largest cryptocurrency sometimes viewed as an alternative to bitcoin — is coming up with a different method of mining that requires less energy, Prasad pointed out.\nCalled“proof of stake,”it is the underlying mechanism for ethereum that activates so-called “validators” on the network, if they can prove that they hold ether, or a “stake.”\nUltimately, it should remove the need for vast amounts of computing power needed to validate transactions and the Ethereum Foundation claims it will use 99.95% less energy than before.\n“That is going to be much less energy intensive, and it could deliver a lot of the benefits that bitcoin was supposed to deliver. It could also make transactions much cheaper and quicker,” said Prasad.\nHowever, it’s not there yet, he added.\n2. Not so anonymous after all\nEarlier this month, U.S. law enforcement officials said they were able to recover $2.3 million in bitcoin paid to a criminal cybergroup involved in the ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline in May.\nThe FBI said its agents were able to identify a virtual currency wallet that the hackers used to collect payment from Colonial Pipeline.\n“The main idea of bitcoin… was to provide pseudonymity,” said Prasad. “But it turns out that if you use bitcoin a lot, and especially if you use Bitcoin to get any real goods and services, then it becomes possible eventually to link your address or your physical identity to your digital identity.”\nWhat’s interesting, he said, is that there are other cryptocurrencies trying to fix this and offer more anonymity. He highlighted Monero and Zcash as some examples.\n“So bitcoin really has set off something of a search for a better alternative and people seem to be on the lookout for a medium of exchange that does not require them to go through a trusted institution like the government or a commercial bank — but it’s not quite there yet,” Prasad said.\n3. Doesn’t work well as a currency\nIn theory, bitcoin was supposed to provide an anonymous and efficient medium of exchange but “it hasn’t worked in that respect,” said the economics professor.\nRather, it’s “slow and cumbersome” to use bitcoin to pay for goods and services, and the market is very volatile, Prasad said.\nBitcoin is prone to wide swings in volatility, as seen by its 30% plunge in a single day last month.\n“So you could take a bitcoin to a store and one day, get a cup of coffee and another day, with the same bitcoin, be able to treat yourself to a lavish meal. So that doesn’t work well for the medium of exchange,” he said.\nBitcoin has become a speculative asset for people who hope it will appreciate in value, rather than because they want to use it as a payment mode, Prasad said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":262,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
