Following a 25.7% increase in 2020, retail ecommerce sales worldwide are expected to rise to $4.92 trillion in 2021, according to data firm eMarketer.</p>\n<p>Unilever is “rethinking” how it spends its advertising budget as the prolonged pandemic has accelerated a shift in the way people shop and entertain themselves, Luis Di Como, Unilever’s executive vice president of global media, told Reuters. He said digital marketing at Unilever, which makes Ben &amp; Jerry’s ice cream and Dove soap, now accounts for roughly 45% of its total media budget versus about 40% prior to the pandemic.</p>\n<p>Unilever holds monthly gaming \"master classes\" for members of its marketing team, inviting professional video game players and industry experts to keep the company attuned to consumers, Di Como said.</p>\n<p>A representative of P&amp;G, which makes Tide detergent and Gillette razors, said its “plans are evolving” to reach people “where they are – including in places like streaming and gaming.\"</p>\n<p>\"It seems a little riskier - I mean it's test-and-learn at this point,\" said Elizabeth Marsten, a senior director at marketing data firm Tinuiti. \"But at the same time, how will you know if you don't try? You've got to go where the people are and 20-year-olds don't have linear TV.\"</p>\n<p>2.7 BILLION GAMERS</p>\n<p>Unilever's total marketing budget is 7.5 billion euros ($8.85 billion). Di Como declined to break out how much of that it spends on media, but  he said Unilever is shelling out “much more” on ecommerce advertising platforms in addition to gaming and streaming platforms.</p>\n<p>\"We are investing on retailer media. So not only the pure-players like Amazon but also - when you think about omni-channel - players like Walmart, Tesco, Target, Carrefour that are also becoming media companies,\" Di Como said.</p>\n<p>Unilever is also branding new products to appeal to people who stream more TV and movies during lockdowns. In a nod to shoppers' heavy use of streaming entertainment, for instance, Ben &amp; Jerry's launched an ice cream flavor called \"Netflix and Chill'd,\" a play on the popular millennial internet meme \"Netflix and Chill.\"</p>\n<p>Late last year, Unilever’s Hellmann's condiment brand tied up with Nintendo farming video game \"Animal Crossing: New Horizon,\" promising to donate to a food waste charity each time a player donated a virtual vegetable to charity within the game.</p>\n<p>According to data firm Newzoo, there are more than 2.7 billion gamers worldwide, and the size of the video game market will surpass $200 billion by 2023.</p>\n<p>In  Britain, Unilever's deodorant  brand Axe sponsors a handful of top gamers, including  Calfreezy.  In China, which contributes  about 6%  to overall sales, Di Como said the company backs e-sport celebrities  and leagues,  which are rapidly gaining popularity among the affluent younger generation in Asia.

Following a 25.7% increase in 2020, retail ecommerce sales worldwide are expected to rise to $4.92 trillion in 2021, according to data firm eMarketer.\nUnilever is “rethinking” how it spends its advertising budget as the prolonged pandemic has accelerated a shift in the way people shop and entertain themselves, Luis Di Como, Unilever’s executive vice president of global media, told Reuters. He said digital marketing at Unilever, which makes Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and Dove soap, now accounts for roughly 45% of its total media budget versus about 40% prior to the pandemic.\nUnilever holds monthly gaming \"master classes\" for members of its marketing team, inviting professional video game players and industry experts to keep the company attuned to consumers, Di Como said.\nA representative of P&G, which makes Tide detergent and Gillette razors, said its “plans are evolving” to reach people “where they are – including in places like streaming and gaming.\"\n\"It seems a little riskier - I mean it's test-and-learn at this point,\" said Elizabeth Marsten, a senior director at marketing data firm Tinuiti. \"But at the same time, how will you know if you don't try? You've got to go where the people are and 20-year-olds don't have linear TV.\"\n2.7 BILLION GAMERS\nUnilever's total marketing budget is 7.5 billion euros ($8.85 billion). Di Como declined to break out how much of that it spends on media, but  he said Unilever is shelling out “much more” on ecommerce advertising platforms in addition to gaming and streaming platforms.\n\"We are investing on retailer media. So not only the pure-players like Amazon but also - when you think about omni-channel - players like Walmart, Tesco, Target, Carrefour that are also becoming media companies,\" Di Como said.\nUnilever is also branding new products to appeal to people who stream more TV and movies during lockdowns. In a nod to shoppers' heavy use of streaming entertainment, for instance, Ben & Jerry's launched an ice cream flavor called \"Netflix and Chill'd,\" a play on the popular millennial internet meme \"Netflix and Chill.\"\nLate last year, Unilever’s Hellmann's condiment brand tied up with Nintendo farming video game \"Animal Crossing: New Horizon,\" promising to donate to a food waste charity each time a player donated a virtual vegetable to charity within the game.\nAccording to data firm Newzoo, there are more than 2.7 billion gamers worldwide, and the size of the video game market will surpass $200 billion by 2023.\nIn  Britain, Unilever's deodorant  brand Axe sponsors a handful of top gamers, including  Calfreezy.  In China, which contributes  about 6%  to overall sales, Di Como said the company backs e-sport celebrities  and leagues,  which are rapidly gaining popularity among the affluent younger generation in Asia. The company has an Apple TV+ documentary on paternity leave sponsored by its Dove Men + Care brand.\nP&G also has a tie-up with Animal Crossing through its Venus women's razor brand. The company told Reuters that it measured nearly 1 billion impressions when it created more skin types for in-game characters, which represent features including freckles, acne, cellulite, hair scars and stretch marks and psoriasis.

The fascinating thing about <b>General Electric</b> (NYSE:GE), <b>Johnson Controls</b> (NYSE:JCI), and Google parent <b>Alphabet</b> (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is that they have entirely different earnings drivers over the next decade. So, let's look at why they are good stocks to buy in their own ways.</p>\n<h2>General Electric is a restructuring story</h2>\n<p>GE is restructuring some fundamentally good businesses and enjoying a multi-year recovery in its crucial aviation segment. But unfortunately, the company has a troubled past. Former CEO Jeff Immelt has been widely criticized for making big bets on fossil fuel technologies. Specifically, he bought many oil and gas services and a major gas and steam power business (from Alstom), just as the energy transition toward renewables started gathering momentum.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d809e54e32a6274b36ebe37521180fea\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"554\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Immelt's idea was to build scale in these industries and attach GE's industrial internet capability to them to add long-term value. Unfortunately, the market for gas turbines halved in the years since the significant Alstom acquisition, as did the price of oil after Immelt made a slew of acquisitions.</p>\n<p>Still, that was then and this is now. GE is vastly different from the expansionary Immelt days and operates out of just four industrial segments. Current CEO Larry Culp is on a drive to improve margin and free cash flow (FCF) performance at the low-growth power business, where GE remains the leading player in gas turbines.</p>\n<p>GE Aviation remains a powerhouse in aerospace (with aircraft engines on the <b>Boeing</b> 737 and the <b>Airbus</b> A320 family) and will benefit from a recovering commercial aviation market. GE Healthcare is a leader in imaging technology and a strong cash generator. At the same time, GE Renewable Energy is a leader in onshore wind and is building a multi-billion dollar offshore wind business.</p>\n<p>It will take time, but Culp aims for a high-single-digit FCF margin by 2023, resulting in $7 billion in FCF. Given that its current market cap is only $108 billion, GE would be attractively priced if it hits that target. Moreover, with a solid collection of businesses where GE is either No. 1 or No. 2, it can grow earnings for many years to come.</p>\n<h2>Johnson Controls has plenty of growth potential</h2>\n<p>The company is a significant player in the heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) market, and the fire and security products market for buildings. It's heavily weighted toward the commercial (rather than residential) HVAC market, and the company is a play on commercial building rather than residential.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/83b128657b68e0857feddf925cafa2ae\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Management sees its long-term growth opportunity coming from three primary sources:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>The need for building owners to improve efficiency and meet net-zero carbon emission standards by fitting and retrofitting improved building systems.</li>\n <li>The COVID-19 pandemic's creation of a lasting interest in healthy buildings with ventilation to circulate the air more often.</li>\n <li>The movement toward smart connected buildings whereby internet-enabled devices create a mass of data used to improve a building's performance.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>CEO George Oliver believes these three factors will create a $250 billion market opportunity over the next decade on top of the $300 billion markets the company currently serves. Moreover, the company is an early leader in the space, having launched its OpenBlue suite of digitally connected solutions in July 2020.</p>\n<p>As such, the company should be able to grow its earnings for many years to come. At the recent investor day presentation, management outlined expectations for a compound annual growth rate in revenue of 6%-7% and earnings per share (EPS) growth of 18%-21% over the next three years. Whichever way you look at it, Johnson Controls is set for multi-year growth.</p>\n<h2>Alphabet's Google is generating bundles of cash</h2>\n<p>It may seem strange to talk about an industrial company, Johnson Controls, as the growth play and a technology company, Alphabet, as the option for growth at a reasonable price, but in truth, that's pretty much how it is. Yes, Google's parent company is still generating robust growth.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/19362d8b49224ccd92b3bcf18bdc7e79\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Still, the critical point is Alphabet's also generating vast amounts of FCF, which management can use to boost EPS and FCF per share by buying back stock or investing in growth initiatives.

That's enough to buy GE and Johnson Controls while leaving $75 billion over. It's also a figure equivalent to 12.5% of its current $1.88 trillion market cap.</p>\n<p>As such, Alphabet is priced like a value stock, yet its revenue is growing at a mid-teens rate. Moreover, with YouTube and Google Cloud revenue growing strongly to support search, Alphabet has demonstrated it can develop other strong profit centers.

Hopefully, it will do so with the enormous amounts of FCF it will generate in the coming years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":371,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":866975894,"gmtCreate":1632730301418,"gmtModify":1632798256256,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586039357257394","idStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/866975894","repostId":"1117744039","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":891,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":884773080,"gmtCreate":1631937885840,"gmtModify":1632805195271,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586039357257394","idStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"😞 sad","listText":"😞 sad","text":"😞 sad","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/884773080","repostId":"2168716185","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2168716185","pubTimestamp":1631916051,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2168716185?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-18 06:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street closes rollercoaster week sharply lower","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2168716185","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"NEW YORK  - US stocks ended sharply lower in a broad sell-off on Friday , ending a week buffeted by strong economic data, corporate tax hike worries, the Delta Covid-19 variant, and possible shifts in the US Federal Reserve's timeline for tapering asset purchases.All three major US stock indexes lost ground, with the Nasdaq Composite Index's weighed down as rising US Treasury yields pressured market-leading growth stocks.They also posted weekly losses, with the S&P index suffering its biggest tw","content":"<div>\n<p>NEW YORK (REUTERS) - US stocks ended sharply lower in a broad sell-off on Friday (Sept 17), ending a week buffeted by strong economic data, corporate tax hike worries, the Delta Covid-19 variant, and ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/wall-street-closes-rollercoaster-week-sharply-lower\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

This is bad news for users, but probably good news for Apple stock investors.\nIPhone users thinking of upgrading their devices this year (or those looking to switch to the iOS-based product) should expect to reach deeper into their pockets. DigiTimes has reported that Apple’s iPhone 13 could be launched next month at a higher price due to parts inflation.\nBad news for consumers could be great news for Apple stock investors. If the price increase is confirmed, it provides evidence that AAPL might be a great inflation play during these times of worry over rising producer and consumer prices.\nFigure 1: Apple's iPhone 12 Pro.\nWhat happened?\nThe iPhone is already considered a pricey tech gadget that can cost as much as $1,400 for the fully loaded, higher-end 12 Pro Max model in the US (see figure below). Due to this year’s components shortage, chip maker TSMC may raise its part prices to Apple by 3% to 5%, which could lead to a similar increase in the price of the yet-to-be-announced iPhone 13.\nIt is unlikely that one of the largest and most successful consumer product companies in the world would try to raise prices without confidence that doing so does not impact demand for the new iPhone substantially. Apple can probably afford to hike prices because the company understands the value and the appeal of its luxury brand.\nFigure 2: iPhone 12 Pro on Apple's store.\nA quote from Jim Cramer\nOne of the most concerning headwinds to stocks in the foreseeable future is the possibility of inflation eroding corporate margins and leading to higher interest rates in 2021-2022. But should producer and consumer prices spike, not all stocks will be impacted equally.\nGenerally speaking, companies with strong pricing power that are able to pass on the higher production costs to consumers will likely outperform. This is a point that Mad Money’s Jim Cramer has made recently. Here is his quote:\n\n “When you try to think of what’s working in this market... I want you to ask yourself, would you be insensitive to a price increase if the company put one through? [What are] the companies that can raise prices without infuriating you? Go buy their stocks.”\n\nThe impact to the P&L\nAre higher prices a good or a bad thing for a company’s financial performance? The answer is nuanced and depends on a few factors.\nHolding all else constant, higher prices also mean higher revenues (think of the formula for sales: price times quantity). If the increase in price is decoupled from an increase in product or operating costs, then the hike also helps to boost margins – thus profits as well.\nHowever, “holding all else constant” is not how the world really works. A change in price tends to have an impact on a few key variables, most important of which is demand. If higher prices do not impact units sold by much or at all, this is great news for revenues and, most likely, earnings.\nThe other piece to consider is whether the price hike fully or only partially offsets higher costs. Assuming the latter, revenues can still benefit without a corresponding positive effect on margins and profits. The complexity presented by the many moving parts makes it hard to determine with certainty how a more expensive iPhone may impact Apple’s financial statements in the future.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":24,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":832029405,"gmtCreate":1629544989307,"gmtModify":1631889299512,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586039357257394","idStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes!

Q2 was an \"easy\" quarter.</li>\n <li>The company is growing at an attractive pace overall but seems to have some market share issues in China - the world's most important automobile market.</li>\n <li>What is priced into the current valuation? TSLA's growth may not be high enough to warrant the current valuation.</li>\n <li>I do much more than just articles at Cash Flow Kingdom: Members get access to model portfolios, regular updates, a chat room, and more.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3><b>Article Thesis</b></h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla Motors</a> has generated massive returns in 2020, but 2021 has not been so kind to investors, despite ongoing progress for the company on an operational basis. The reason for that is Tesla's high valuation, which does already account for a lot of growth. In this article, we'll look into a couple of recent news items and what they could mean for Tesla going forward.</p>\n<h3><b>TSLA Stock Price</b></h3>\n<p>Tesla, Inc. had an outstanding 2020, as shares rose from around $90 to around $700 in just twelve months, which equates to a massive 670% gain for those that held shares throughout that time frame. Those that bought at various points during 2020 may not have the same performance, however, and as Tesla received a lot of attention following steep gains in H1 2020, it seems logical to assume that a considerable portion of the company's investor base bought at prices that are, by far, not as favorable compared to those that bought in early 2020 or prior to that.</p>\n<p>2021 has been a way less exciting year for Tesla so far, as shares have risen by just 1% to date:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93c5307cde7c9d89e71b61e7ebb49a9f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Data by&nbsp;YCharts</p>\n<p>TSLA has significantly lagged the broad market so far this year, as stretched valuations and declining hype around EV investments have not been kind to Tesla. The same holds true for others in this space, as TSLA is not the only EV company that trades well below all-time-highs right now - <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">NIO Inc.</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LCID\">Lucid Group Inc</a>, and many more are trading 20%, 30%, or even 50%+ below their highs. Analysts are currently not seeing a reversal from this underperformance, as the consensus price target of $680 implies that shares are actually trading above where they will trade a year from now.</p>\n<p>The issue that keeps Tesla's shares from rising in 2021 is not a lag of underlying business progress, of course, as growth has remained strong and recent results and profitability during the most recent quarter were actually better than expected. The more likely cause for the underperformance of Tesla, Inc. when it comes to equity markets this year is that valuations were just way too stretched going into 2021, and due to very high expectations, there is no real catalyst in sight that could propel shares higher right now.</p>\n<h3><b>Business Overview: Improving Profitability, China Market Share Worries</b></h3>\n<p>Looking at Tesla's underlying performance in H1, there are positives and negatives that are noteworthy. First, looking through the Q1 earnings report, it should be noted that Tesla was surprisingly profitable during the period. The company easily beat the consensus estimate, reporting GAAP earnings per share of $1.02, which was roughly 100% higher than the consensus estimate. This was the result of a better-than-expected gross margin, which was, unlike in some previous quarters, not boosted too much by ZEV credit sales. Instead, it was Tesla's actual car business that was able to surprise with profitability levels that were higher than what was expected.</p>\n<p>Of course, a company generating $1 in quarterly EPS, or $4 on an annualized level, is still trading at an extremely high valuation at a share price of $700+. With an earnings multiple well in excess of 100, TSLA is priced for perfection, and when we take a look at the profitability levels of some of Tesla's peers, the company still doesn't stack up too well. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DMLRY\">Daimler AG</a>, for example, the owner of Mercedes-Benz, generated&nbsp;EBIT of €5.4 billion, or $6.4 billion during the second quarter alone, which is roughly 5x as much as Tesla's operating profit of$1.3 billion&nbsp;during the period.</p>\n<p>In other words, despite the fact that Tesla's profitability was higher than expected, the company's profits are not even close to those of some of its peers, and Daimler is far from the largest legacy player in the car industry. It seems like the second quarter, overall, was a pretty good one for the car industry, with many legacy players generating strong results as well. This does, at least to some extent, put Tesla's profit beat in perspective - it looks like profit beats were easy to achieve for car companies in Q2. Daimler does, for reference, trade at a market capitalization of $93 billion, or roughly one-eighth of Tesla's market cap - despite generating massively higher profits.</p>\n<p>Tesla did, unlike Daimler and other legacy players, generate very strong volume growth, however, breaching 200,000 deliveries during a single quarter for the first time. This undoubtedly was a strong feat for the company, which absolutely deserves respect for breaching an annual sales rate of 800,000 less than two decades after the company was founded.</p>\n<p>Other recent news was not as positive, however. Tesla did, for example, push back the Cybertruck delivery date to 2022. This didn't come as too much of a surprise to many that follow the company, but the company's&nbsp;CEO had still talked about&nbsp;being able to deliver at least some Cybertrucks this year. It looks like, once again, Tesla leadership has overpromised and underdelivered when it comes to setting expectations for new product releases, in what seems to be the case relatively often - the same occurred with robo-taxis, the Tesla Semi, the&nbsp;Model S Plaid Plus, and so on.</p>\n<p>Cybertruck deliveries being pushed back does not only mean that this new model will not provide any revenues or profits for Tesla in H2, but on top of that, deliveries being pushed back may weaken Tesla's position in the electric pick-up truck segment. The <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">Ford</a> 150 Lightning will be released in spring 2022 as well, and might actually come to market before the Cybertruck.</p>\n<p>This is, of course, bad news for bulls that had hoped for deliveries to start in 2021, which would have meant that the Cybertruck could have gained sales momentum before Ford had its model on the market. Right now, it looks like the competition will be stiffer, with both highly-anticipated electric trucks coming out around the same time.</p>\n<p>Also of note, Tesla seems to be having issues in keeping or growing its market share in China. Production numbers&nbsp;declined slightly&nbsp;in July, and most of the cars that the company produced in Shanghai were exported. This does, of course, not mean that these cars do not generate any revenue - they do, even when shipped to Europe, for example. But with shipping rates at very high levels, it seems reasonable to assume that margins on these exported cars will not be especially high, due to high transportation costs.</p>\n<p>On top of that, even when we account for the fact that Tesla's exports from China are always the highest in the first month during a quarter, it still is noteworthy that sales in China keep declining: The company sold more than 15,000 cars locally in January, with that amount declining to 12,000 in April, and to less than 9,000 in July. Since the Tesla Shanghai plant was not built for export markets primarily, this trend may spell trouble for Tesla in the world's biggest automobile market. Local EV players, such as NIO, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/XPEV\">XPeng Inc.</a>, or <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BYDDY\">BYD Co., Ltd.</a>&nbsp;are growing their sales quickly, and do have a similar market share in their home markets compared to Tesla. Li, for example, sold 8,589 cars in July, versus 8,621 for Tesla.</p>\n<p>This wouldn't be a major problem if Tesla was not valued at a very high valuation, of course. But Tesla is, as a matter of fact, trading at a market capitalization that is higher than that of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VWAGY\">Volkswagen AG</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/STLA\">Stellantis NV</a>, Daimler, Ford, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GM\">General Motors</a>, XPeng, NIO, and BYD combined. In this situation, with a valuation this high, Tesla's obvious market share issues and declining local sales in China seem like an issue that investors should keep an eye on - it will be very hard for Tesla to become a dominant automobile company when it is struggling in the world's largest automobile market.</p>\n<h3><b>Tesla Stock Forecast For 2021</b></h3>\n<p>The strong share price gains in 2020 have made TSLA's stock very expensive, and even with 100% revenue growth in the most recent quarter, shares are way more expensive than they were one year ago, as the market capitalization has risen by way more than that in the same time frame. It seems pretty clear that Tesla will be able to grow its revenues and profits in 2021, 2022, and beyond, but to me, it seems highly questionable whether future growth will justify the current valuation.</p>\n<p>The current EPS consensus for 2021 is $5.43, and earnings per share are forecasted to grow to&nbsp;$12.72 in 2025. This equates to an annual growth rate of 24%, which is attractive for sure. But, for reference, this is in-line or below the growth rates that are expected from the following companies:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31703c291feebd49c025f176261366d2\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Data by&nbsp;YCharts</p>\n<p>The difference, of course, is that <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon.com</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFLX\">Netflix</a> are generating higher margins, have less capital-intense business models, and are valued at very low valuations relative to how Tesla is valued - TSLA trades at 130x this year's expected profits, with mid-20s earnings growth, while GOOG trades for 28x net profits, with<i>higher</i>expected growth. Clearly, Tesla is an absolute outlier when it comes to valuation among mega-cap growth companies. I believe that this will not be a positive for investors going forward.</p>\n<p>Based on current consensus price targets, there is no upside for Tesla's shares over the next year, and actually some downside potential. With Cybertruck deliveries being pushed back, robo-taxis not around the corner, and competition intensifying, I doubt that shares will be a great investment for the remainder of 2021.</p>\n<h3><b>Is TSLA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</b></h3>\n<p>For those that bought TSLA before its meteoric share price gains in 2020, the company undoubtedly has been a great investment. But past returns do not equate to future returns, and it seems like shares have burned out to some extent. TSLA has significantly underperformed the market this year, and it does not look like there is a major catalyst waiting around the corner that could change that.</p>\n<p>If TSLA manages to solve autonomous driving on a global scale before anyone else, shares could be a good investment.

Q2 was an \"easy\" quarter.\nThe company is growing at an attractive pace overall but seems to have some market share issues in China - the world's most important automobile market.\nWhat is priced into the current valuation? TSLA's growth may not be high enough to warrant the current valuation.\nI do much more than just articles at Cash Flow Kingdom: Members get access to model portfolios, regular updates, a chat room, and more.\n\nArticle Thesis\nTesla Motors has generated massive returns in 2020, but 2021 has not been so kind to investors, despite ongoing progress for the company on an operational basis. The reason for that is Tesla's high valuation, which does already account for a lot of growth. In this article, we'll look into a couple of recent news items and what they could mean for Tesla going forward.\nTSLA Stock Price\nTesla, Inc. had an outstanding 2020, as shares rose from around $90 to around $700 in just twelve months, which equates to a massive 670% gain for those that held shares throughout that time frame. Those that bought at various points during 2020 may not have the same performance, however, and as Tesla received a lot of attention following steep gains in H1 2020, it seems logical to assume that a considerable portion of the company's investor base bought at prices that are, by far, not as favorable compared to those that bought in early 2020 or prior to that.\n2021 has been a way less exciting year for Tesla so far, as shares have risen by just 1% to date:\nData by YCharts\nTSLA has significantly lagged the broad market so far this year, as stretched valuations and declining hype around EV investments have not been kind to Tesla. The same holds true for others in this space, as TSLA is not the only EV company that trades well below all-time-highs right now - NIO Inc., Lucid Group Inc, and many more are trading 20%, 30%, or even 50%+ below their highs. Analysts are currently not seeing a reversal from this underperformance, as the consensus price target of $680 implies that shares are actually trading above where they will trade a year from now.\nThe issue that keeps Tesla's shares from rising in 2021 is not a lag of underlying business progress, of course, as growth has remained strong and recent results and profitability during the most recent quarter were actually better than expected. The more likely cause for the underperformance of Tesla, Inc. when it comes to equity markets this year is that valuations were just way too stretched going into 2021, and due to very high expectations, there is no real catalyst in sight that could propel shares higher right now.\nBusiness Overview: Improving Profitability, China Market Share Worries\nLooking at Tesla's underlying performance in H1, there are positives and negatives that are noteworthy. First, looking through the Q1 earnings report, it should be noted that Tesla was surprisingly profitable during the period. The company easily beat the consensus estimate, reporting GAAP earnings per share of $1.02, which was roughly 100% higher than the consensus estimate. This was the result of a better-than-expected gross margin, which was, unlike in some previous quarters, not boosted too much by ZEV credit sales. Instead, it was Tesla's actual car business that was able to surprise with profitability levels that were higher than what was expected.\nOf course, a company generating $1 in quarterly EPS, or $4 on an annualized level, is still trading at an extremely high valuation at a share price of $700+. With an earnings multiple well in excess of 100, TSLA is priced for perfection, and when we take a look at the profitability levels of some of Tesla's peers, the company still doesn't stack up too well. Daimler AG, for example, the owner of Mercedes-Benz, generated EBIT of €5.4 billion, or $6.4 billion during the second quarter alone, which is roughly 5x as much as Tesla's operating profit of$1.3 billion during the period.\nIn other words, despite the fact that Tesla's profitability was higher than expected, the company's profits are not even close to those of some of its peers, and Daimler is far from the largest legacy player in the car industry. It seems like the second quarter, overall, was a pretty good one for the car industry, with many legacy players generating strong results as well. This does, at least to some extent, put Tesla's profit beat in perspective - it looks like profit beats were easy to achieve for car companies in Q2. Daimler does, for reference, trade at a market capitalization of $93 billion, or roughly one-eighth of Tesla's market cap - despite generating massively higher profits.\nTesla did, unlike Daimler and other legacy players, generate very strong volume growth, however, breaching 200,000 deliveries during a single quarter for the first time. This undoubtedly was a strong feat for the company, which absolutely deserves respect for breaching an annual sales rate of 800,000 less than two decades after the company was founded.\nOther recent news was not as positive, however. Tesla did, for example, push back the Cybertruck delivery date to 2022. This didn't come as too much of a surprise to many that follow the company, but the company's CEO had still talked about being able to deliver at least some Cybertrucks this year. It looks like, once again, Tesla leadership has overpromised and underdelivered when it comes to setting expectations for new product releases, in what seems to be the case relatively often - the same occurred with robo-taxis, the Tesla Semi, the Model S Plaid Plus, and so on.\nCybertruck deliveries being pushed back does not only mean that this new model will not provide any revenues or profits for Tesla in H2, but on top of that, deliveries being pushed back may weaken Tesla's position in the electric pick-up truck segment. The Ford 150 Lightning will be released in spring 2022 as well, and might actually come to market before the Cybertruck.\nThis is, of course, bad news for bulls that had hoped for deliveries to start in 2021, which would have meant that the Cybertruck could have gained sales momentum before Ford had its model on the market. Right now, it looks like the competition will be stiffer, with both highly-anticipated electric trucks coming out around the same time.\nAlso of note, Tesla seems to be having issues in keeping or growing its market share in China. Production numbers declined slightly in July, and most of the cars that the company produced in Shanghai were exported. This does, of course, not mean that these cars do not generate any revenue - they do, even when shipped to Europe, for example. But with shipping rates at very high levels, it seems reasonable to assume that margins on these exported cars will not be especially high, due to high transportation costs.\nOn top of that, even when we account for the fact that Tesla's exports from China are always the highest in the first month during a quarter, it still is noteworthy that sales in China keep declining: The company sold more than 15,000 cars locally in January, with that amount declining to 12,000 in April, and to less than 9,000 in July. Since the Tesla Shanghai plant was not built for export markets primarily, this trend may spell trouble for Tesla in the world's biggest automobile market. Local EV players, such as NIO, XPeng Inc., or BYD Co., Ltd. are growing their sales quickly, and do have a similar market share in their home markets compared to Tesla. Li, for example, sold 8,589 cars in July, versus 8,621 for Tesla.\nThis wouldn't be a major problem if Tesla was not valued at a very high valuation, of course. But Tesla is, as a matter of fact, trading at a market capitalization that is higher than that of Volkswagen AG, Stellantis NV, Daimler, Ford, General Motors, XPeng, NIO, and BYD combined. In this situation, with a valuation this high, Tesla's obvious market share issues and declining local sales in China seem like an issue that investors should keep an eye on - it will be very hard for Tesla to become a dominant automobile company when it is struggling in the world's largest automobile market.\nTesla Stock Forecast For 2021\nThe strong share price gains in 2020 have made TSLA's stock very expensive, and even with 100% revenue growth in the most recent quarter, shares are way more expensive than they were one year ago, as the market capitalization has risen by way more than that in the same time frame. It seems pretty clear that Tesla will be able to grow its revenues and profits in 2021, 2022, and beyond, but to me, it seems highly questionable whether future growth will justify the current valuation.\nThe current EPS consensus for 2021 is $5.43, and earnings per share are forecasted to grow to $12.72 in 2025. This equates to an annual growth rate of 24%, which is attractive for sure. But, for reference, this is in-line or below the growth rates that are expected from the following companies:\nData by YCharts\nThe difference, of course, is that Facebook, Alphabet, Amazon.com, Netflix are generating higher margins, have less capital-intense business models, and are valued at very low valuations relative to how Tesla is valued - TSLA trades at 130x this year's expected profits, with mid-20s earnings growth, while GOOG trades for 28x net profits, withhigherexpected growth. Clearly, Tesla is an absolute outlier when it comes to valuation among mega-cap growth companies. I believe that this will not be a positive for investors going forward.\nBased on current consensus price targets, there is no upside for Tesla's shares over the next year, and actually some downside potential. With Cybertruck deliveries being pushed back, robo-taxis not around the corner, and competition intensifying, I doubt that shares will be a great investment for the remainder of 2021.\nIs TSLA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?\nFor those that bought TSLA before its meteoric share price gains in 2020, the company undoubtedly has been a great investment. But past returns do not equate to future returns, and it seems like shares have burned out to some extent. TSLA has significantly underperformed the market this year, and it does not look like there is a major catalyst waiting around the corner that could change that.\nIf TSLA manages to solve autonomous driving on a global scale before anyone else, shares could be a good investment. But from what we know today, it does not look like this is a very likely scenario - others, including XPeng, Alphabet, etc., are ahead of Tesla in AV tech. I thus don't think that gambling on an AV win is a great choice here, but others may disagree.\nPrimarily due to its excessively high valuation, both versus legacy auto players and other growth mega-caps, I think Tesla remains an avoid right here. If I held shares, I'd think about locking in gains.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":895675643,"gmtCreate":1628743547882,"gmtModify":1631891639246,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586039357257394","idStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏼","listText":"👍🏼","text":"👍🏼","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/895675643","repostId":"1138116573","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":193,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":892647161,"gmtCreate":1628659042353,"gmtModify":1631891639252,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586039357257394","idStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍🏼&nbsp;","listText":"👍🏼&nbsp;","text":"👍🏼","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/892647161","repostId":"1131381301","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1131381301","pubTimestamp":1628650531,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1131381301?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-11 10:55","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Oil Steadies With Report Pointing to Shrinking U.S. Inventories","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1131381301","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Oil was steady after jumping the most in almost three weeks as an industry report poi","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Oil was steady after jumping the most in almost three weeks as an industry report pointed to shrinking U.S. gasoline and crude inventories.</p>\n<p>Futures in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NWY\">New York</a> traded near $68 a barrel after closing 2.7% higher on Tuesday.

Nationwide inventories are forecast to have dropped by 750,000 barrels, according to a Bloomberg survey before the official Energy Information Administration data.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":98,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":117984556,"gmtCreate":1623113663775,"gmtModify":1634036840325,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586039357257394","authorIdStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":7,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/117984556","repostId":"2141342255","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2141342255","pubTimestamp":1623098661,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2141342255?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-08 04:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P closes nominally lower as investors wait for a catalyst","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2141342255","media":"REUTERS","summary":"NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The S&P 500 ended a languid session slightly in the red on Monday (June 7), wit","content":"<div>\n<p>NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The S&P 500 ended a languid session slightly in the red on Monday (June 7), with investors standing by on news of a global minimum corporate tax rate, lingering inflation fears, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/sp-closes-nominally-lower-as-investors-wait-for-a-catalyst\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

After all, why earn nothing on your money when there’s Bitcoin and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. and lumber and houses in Boise? Many days last year and early this year&nbsp;there were no takers.</p>\n<p>Starting in April, though, no interest started looking&nbsp;interesting to certain investors&nbsp;with too much cash on their hands. The amount of money they placed at the Fed overnight at 0.00% grew from nothing to single-digit millions to billions and, as of June 8, $497.4&nbsp;billion. That’s the most ever.</p>\n<p>The Federal Reserve Swallows Up Money</p>\n<p>Money market funds and others are depositing more funds overnight at the central bank</p>\n<p>Source: Federal Reserve Bank of New York</p>\n<p>Banks and money market mutual funds are unhappy with the situation and they’re&nbsp;pressing the Federal Reserve to do something about it. Others say there’s no rush to tinker. The Fed facility that’s taking in all that money is “doing what it’s designed to do,” Credit Suisse Group AG analyst Zoltan Pozsar wrote in a client note on June 4.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the numbers are likely to get even bigger, the Bank Policy Institute, a research and advocacy group, said&nbsp;on June 8. “We could see take-up nearing $1 trillion at the end of the second quarter of 2021, driven by the seasonal spikes,”wroteFrancisco Covas, its head of research.</p>\n<p>The quick explanation for this is that there’s a lot of money sloshing around the financial system, and for regulatory reasons banks don’t want to take it in as deposits. So money market mutual funds are absorbing the money. Each night they place some of their assets with the Fed and earn nothing, which is bad for their profitability. As for the Fed, the reason it even offers the facility is that otherwise the forces of supply and demand might push the federal funds rate below zero, which it has vowed not to let happen.</p>\n<p>The longer explanation gets at why this is suddenly happening now. As the Bank Policy Institute explains, the key reason is a rule change regarding bank capital requirements that took effect on April 1. It has to do with a clunky requirement called the supplementary leverage ratio, which is intended to prevent banks from taking on too much debt to acquire assets. The fear, of course, is that the assets will lose value and make the banks insolvent. The supplementary ratio, in its clunky way, treats all assets as equally risky, even though of course they aren’t:&nbsp;Treasury bonds and reserves at the Fed are extremely safe.</p>\n<p>When the Covid-19 crisis hit last year, regulators waived the rule, temporarily excluding banks’ holdings of Treasury bonds and reserves&nbsp;from the supplementary leverage ratio calculation. But the waiver ended on&nbsp;March 31 of this year, so banks once again have an incentive not to take in a lot of funds (such as deposits) to acquire a lot of assets (such as Treasuries and reserves). A related&nbsp;rule that’s getting the biggest banks to push away deposits is the capital surcharge for global systemically important banks.</p>\n<p>The Fed itself is increasing the pressure on the system by continuing to buy&nbsp;$120 billion a month of&nbsp;Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities to push down long-term interest rates. The money the Fed pays out, instead of going into bank deposits, is winding up in money market mutual funds, and then circulating into the Fed’s deposit facility, which consists of overnight reverse repurchase agreements.</p>\n<p>One problem with this situation is that the Fed is taking over what used to be a mostly private function. If money market funds get used to keeping a lot of their money at the Fed instead of investing in, say, the commercial paper of private companies, they may switch even more money to the Fed in some future crisis, depriving the private sector of&nbsp;needed funds. This isn’t just a theoretical concern—companies lost access to funding in the global financial crisis of 2007-09.</p>\n<p>The Bank Policy Institute quotes from a 2015&nbsp;Fed staffworking paper:</p>\n<p><i>“Most importantly, a permanently expanded role for the Federal Reserve in short-term funding markets could reshape the financial industry in ways that may be difficult to&nbsp;anticipate and that may prove to be&nbsp;undesirable. For example, a permanent or long-lasting&nbsp;facility that causes very significant crowding out of short-term financing could lead to&nbsp;atrophying of the private infrastructure that supports these markets. Partially in response to some&nbsp;of these concerns, the FOMC has made clear that an ON RRP facility is not intended to be&nbsp;permanent.”</i></p>\n<p>Except now the overnight reverse repurchase facility seemingly is permanent, or at least long-lasting—and large.</p>","source":"lsy1584095487587","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>The Fed Is Paying 0.00%.

After all, why earn nothing on your money when there’s Bitcoin and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. and lumber and houses in Boise? Many days last year and early this year there were no takers.\nStarting in April, though, no interest started looking interesting to certain investors with too much cash on their hands. The amount of money they placed at the Fed overnight at 0.00% grew from nothing to single-digit millions to billions and, as of June 8, $497.4 billion. That’s the most ever.\nThe Federal Reserve Swallows Up Money\nMoney market funds and others are depositing more funds overnight at the central bank\nSource: Federal Reserve Bank of New York\nBanks and money market mutual funds are unhappy with the situation and they’re pressing the Federal Reserve to do something about it. Others say there’s no rush to tinker. The Fed facility that’s taking in all that money is “doing what it’s designed to do,” Credit Suisse Group AG analyst Zoltan Pozsar wrote in a client note on June 4.\nMeanwhile, the numbers are likely to get even bigger, the Bank Policy Institute, a research and advocacy group, said on June 8. “We could see take-up nearing $1 trillion at the end of the second quarter of 2021, driven by the seasonal spikes,”wroteFrancisco Covas, its head of research.\nThe quick explanation for this is that there’s a lot of money sloshing around the financial system, and for regulatory reasons banks don’t want to take it in as deposits. So money market mutual funds are absorbing the money. Each night they place some of their assets with the Fed and earn nothing, which is bad for their profitability. As for the Fed, the reason it even offers the facility is that otherwise the forces of supply and demand might push the federal funds rate below zero, which it has vowed not to let happen.\nThe longer explanation gets at why this is suddenly happening now. As the Bank Policy Institute explains, the key reason is a rule change regarding bank capital requirements that took effect on April 1. It has to do with a clunky requirement called the supplementary leverage ratio, which is intended to prevent banks from taking on too much debt to acquire assets. The fear, of course, is that the assets will lose value and make the banks insolvent. The supplementary ratio, in its clunky way, treats all assets as equally risky, even though of course they aren’t: Treasury bonds and reserves at the Fed are extremely safe.\nWhen the Covid-19 crisis hit last year, regulators waived the rule, temporarily excluding banks’ holdings of Treasury bonds and reserves from the supplementary leverage ratio calculation. But the waiver ended on March 31 of this year, so banks once again have an incentive not to take in a lot of funds (such as deposits) to acquire a lot of assets (such as Treasuries and reserves). A related rule that’s getting the biggest banks to push away deposits is the capital surcharge for global systemically important banks.\nThe Fed itself is increasing the pressure on the system by continuing to buy $120 billion a month of Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities to push down long-term interest rates. The money the Fed pays out, instead of going into bank deposits, is winding up in money market mutual funds, and then circulating into the Fed’s deposit facility, which consists of overnight reverse repurchase agreements.\nOne problem with this situation is that the Fed is taking over what used to be a mostly private function. If money market funds get used to keeping a lot of their money at the Fed instead of investing in, say, the commercial paper of private companies, they may switch even more money to the Fed in some future crisis, depriving the private sector of needed funds. This isn’t just a theoretical concern—companies lost access to funding in the global financial crisis of 2007-09.\nThe Bank Policy Institute quotes from a 2015 Fed staffworking paper:\n“Most importantly, a permanently expanded role for the Federal Reserve in short-term funding markets could reshape the financial industry in ways that may be difficult to anticipate and that may prove to be undesirable. For example, a permanent or long-lasting facility that causes very significant crowding out of short-term financing could lead to atrophying of the private infrastructure that supports these markets. Partially in response to some of these concerns, the FOMC has made clear that an ON RRP facility is not intended to be permanent.”\nExcept now the overnight reverse repurchase facility seemingly is permanent, or at least long-lasting—and large.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":256,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184844621,"gmtCreate":1623710628763,"gmtModify":1631887210503,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586039357257394","authorIdStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Keeping fingers crossed!

The resumption of Max deliveries would bolster the company’s plans to speed production of its principal money maker as demand recovers from a global pandemic and a worldwide flying ban on the model.\nAbout 175 nations have cleared the Max to resume service after Boeing redesigned a flight-control system linked to crashes in late 2018 and early 2019 that killed 346 people.\nChief Executive Officer Dave Calhoun has been upbeat about prospects for the planemaker and the Max in China, after U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman traveled to the country for diplomatic meetings.\nThe Max will be cleared to fly in China and the rest of the globe by year-end, Calhoun said during the company’searnings calllast month. With the Winter Olympics looming and the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic hopefully receding, China’s airlines are clamoring to get the Max back in service, he said. Talks with CAAC, China’s air regulator, have been encouraging and constructive, Calhoun said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":25,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":123831852,"gmtCreate":1624414947576,"gmtModify":1634006441337,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586039357257394","authorIdStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!

NIO's effort to build a lifestyle around its cars seems to be&nbsp;working. This is good news for investors because the only way to escape the competitive battlefield of automobile OEM is to sell services and lifestyles to customers. This is why Ferrari's (RACE) operating margin is well over 20%, while Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) are in the single digits.</p>\n<p><b>Financials &amp; Valuation</b></p>\n<p>NIO is in hyper-growth mode. In 2020, the company generated $2.5 billion in revenue, up 126% y/y. In 2021, the company is expected to grow 117% y/y to $5.4 billion.</p>\n<p>The company is not yet profitable but is expected to be by 2022. Gross margin only turned positive in 2020 and is expected to be 19.3% in 2021. EBITDA is expected to be negative $258 million in 2021 and a positive $206 million in 2022. Free cash flow is expected to be negative $42 million in 2021 before turning to a positive $354 million in 2022.</p>\n<p>However, despite the cash burn expected in 2021, investors should feel at ease since the company exited&nbsp;2020&nbsp;with $5.9 billion of cash and cash equivalents. Including $600 million in short-term investments and subtracting ~$2.1 billion in debt and operating leases and the expected negative free cash flow in 2021, NIO should exit 2021 with over $4 billion in net cash and investments. That is plenty of buffers since NIO is expected to generate positive free cash flow in 2022.</p>\n<p>Since NIO is not yet profitable, we will look at the forward EV/Sales multiple as is typical for hyper-growth companies not yet generating a profit. The company went public in September 2018, trading at around 7 to 8 times EV/Sales, before bottoming out at around 0.7 times sales in May 2019. The market, however, caught the EV fever in April 2020 and sent NIO's valuation soaring to a peak of 14.6x by January 2021. After the growth sell-off we recently experienced, NIO is currently sitting at a much more reasonable 8 times forward sales. This is a significant discount to TSLA's 10.2 times forward EV/Sales despite growing twice as fast (TSLA is expected to grow revenues by 57% in 2021 compared to NIO's 117%).</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>There are many risks associated with owning NIO.</p>\n<p>Although its battery swapping strategy is highly differentiated and seems to be growing rapidly, the jury is still out on the ultimate market share of battery swapping or fast-charging infrastructure. If fast charging technology continues to advance significantly, it will likely erode a key advantage of battery swapping: speed.</p>\n<p>NIO's business model is innovative and new. Unfortunately, the flip side of that is that it is untested, and NIO remains unprofitable. For many investors, NIO will remain a \"show me\" story until the profitability of its business model improves.</p>\n<p>NIO's ability to expand globally may be limited by the rising geopolitical tension between China and the US, and to a lesser extent, with Japan and Europe. The geopolitical situation remains highly opaque and uncertain, and is a risk factor for all auto OEMs.</p>\n<p>Auto OEMs are currently facing a severe chip&nbsp;shortage. In addition, the chip density in automobiles is increasing, making the OEMs increasingly reliant on semiconductor suppliers and foundries.</p>\n<p>NIO's competitive advantages may not overcome the massive scale advantage of ICE OEMs and much bigger EV players like Tesla and China's BYD.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>NIO's technical and business model innovations make it a highly differentiated company in the exciting and rapidly growing EV market. The company is winning, and its competitive moat is getting bigger as its ecosystem of vehicles and services grows. Relative to the industry leader, Tesla, NIO's stock price seems like a bargain given its faster growth rate and lower multiples.</p>","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>NIO Is Winning</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\">\nNIO Is Winning\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-18 09:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435341-nio-is-winning><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nNIO is #1 in China's electric SUV market for good reason.\nThe company's success is driven by its brilliant innovations and marketing strategy.\nNIO is growing faster than Tesla, and yet, it is...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435341-nio-is-winning\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435341-nio-is-winning","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1148576248","content_text":"Summary\n\nNIO is #1 in China's electric SUV market for good reason.\nThe company's success is driven by its brilliant innovations and marketing strategy.\nNIO is growing faster than Tesla, and yet, it is trading at a discount.\n\nPonyWang/E+ via Getty Images\nNIO Inc.

Leadership in life-changing trends, enormous growth, innovation, dominance, and of course huge profits. All checked. Let's put some numbers behind those buzzwords to prove it.</p>\n<p><b>E-commerce</b></p>\n<p>We start with e-commerce. This year the company is expected toincrease its US retail e-commerce market share to 40.4%. Walmart, second on the list, is going to enjoy only 7.1%. A clear sign of dominance. The sales growth is going to continue. After a Covid turbocharged 44.1% rise last year, analysts predict 15.3% in 2021. That means slowing down tothe average e-commerce growth in the US over the last decade.</p>\n<p>The international footprint is also growing nicely. In 2020, 27% of revenue came from abroad. And they are still expanding to new markets (in March 2021 they entered Poland startingamazon.pl).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ad6f72d60e6af0ab7802b63bb60e04c5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"107\"><span>Source: Amazon Annual Report 2020</span></p>\n<p>There are two trends in retail sales that are going to benefit Amazon in the coming years. First, overall consumption and spending are growing together with the economy. But most importantly, a share of e-commerce retail vs. total retail sales is going to increase.In 2020, it was already 21.3% for the USA, up from 6.4% in 2010. Still less than e.g. in China, where the National Bureau of Statistics of China estimated online retail penetration to be at 24.9% in 2020.</p>\n<p>As Jeff Bezos predicted, the virtuous cycle is self-reinforcing and attracting more and more customers and merchants to the platform every year. Last Amazon's report shows that the number of sold products increases pretty fast, so do SMBs' profits. Amazon is fueling its success by intensive investments in logistics, analysis tools, and services, which lead to growing Amazon success and so on.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b70ae811d800c6e2fcaeb619b5a50964\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"608\"><span>Source:Amazon SMB Impact Report 2020</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dfe8106bb3f81d21e177ef59cefc5888\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"709\"><span>Source: Amazon SMB Impact Report 2020</span></p>\n<p><b>AWS</b></p>\n<p>Whether it’s technology giants, television networks, banks, food manufacturers, or governments, many organizations are using AWS to develop, deploy and host applications. The biggest customers are well-known brands such asNetflix, Adobe, Apple, LinkedIn, Twitter, BBC, and many more.</p>\n<p>It is another area that has sped upbecause of the COVID-19 pandemic. Implementation of stay-at-home policies for consumers, work-from-home policies for employees generated enormous demand and caused much higher than initially expected cloud usage.</p>\n<p>Amazon invests heavily in the data centers and expands its geographical footprint. The company offers a broad and rapidly growing portfolio of cloud services. All these efforts to satisfy customers' needs have given Amazon aworldwide leadership position.</p>\n<p>Strong double-digit demand for cloud services is going to continue in the next few years. Forecasts say that in 2021 the whole segment value will reach$330bn, up 23% from 2020. AWS as a dominant force with almosta third of market sharein IaaS and PaaS will surely enjoy growing revenues and profits.</p>\n<p><b>Advertising</b></p>\n<p>Google or Facebook make money by advertising different products and services. Their algorithms are very efficient in targeting selected audience groups. They are great at defining what may be of interest for me, for you, and every single web user. But they do not have the same insights as Amazon has. Amazon knows exactly what people buy, how they buy it, and how much of it they buy. The knowledge of what movies Amazon Prime customers are watching, what music and books they consume, gives Amazon an even more complete picture of the consumer journey.</p>\n<p>Here, the trend is once again Amazon's friend. Totalad spending continues to riseyear after year at a double-digit rate. Digital ads are already a dominant form of marketing and as people have more electronic devices connected to the Internet, they continue to be the most important channel to reach customers.</p>\n<p>Amazon has been very successful in this field. The company is alreadythe third power in advertising in the USAwith 10% of the market share. They are expanding especially at Google's cost as more people search for specific products directly on Amazon's website circumventing Google's search engine. Analysts predict that both Google and Facebook are going to lose their market share in the coming years,whereas Amazon continues to grab a bigger part of the growing pie.</p>\n<p>Looking at advertising revenue (classified as \"Other\" in the annual report), we can assume that it grew at a whopping rate of 50% last year. As cloud services, it is a very profitable, high-margin activity that will nicely continue to increase Amazon's bottom line in the future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a8ab12e5788fda9765fbd60bf394f23\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"261\"><span>Source: Amazon Annual Report 2020</span></p>\n<p><b>Amazon Prime</b></p>\n<p>Other powerful revenue engines are subscription services i.e. Amazon Prime membership fees, video-on-demand, etc. What Amazon offers its customers is pretty unique - by subscribing they get a combination of cheaper and faster orders' delivery and access to a rich library of movies, series, and songs. And it is very affordable! Thanks to that the retention rate is very high and the user base is constantly growing, exceeding already 200 million people. And almost130 million are using the Video Prime service at least once a month. That gives Amazon Prime Video servicesecond position worldwide just behind Netflix.</p>\n<p>Again, also from this trend, Amazon is trying to make use of. The expectations are that OTT and VoD services will growbetween 14%and18% for the next 4-5 years.The acquisition of MGMand gaining such IPs like James Bond, The Silence of the Lambs, Fargo, and a few thousand others, shows that the company takes it pretty seriously and will fight for its share of the pie.</p>\n<p>Looking once more into the annual report, we may see that subscription services brought ~$25bn in FY 2020. It seems not much compared to $386bn of total revenue, but $25bn was also the total revenue of Netflix last year! And it is growing faster than Netflix revenue.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9535c8b9791a767f3e8b52754d5db4c1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"264\"><span>Source: Amazon Annual Report 2020</span></p>\n<p><b>Others</b></p>\n<p>If it was not enough, Amazon constantly tries to revolutionize some aspects of our lives and create new expansion opportunities. It isa leader in the smart speaker market(50% of the US market). Kindle dominates the e-reader market in the USA. FireTV streams videos to millions of homes. Etc., etc.</p>\n<p>Many experimental initiatives can easily become another mega-trend and contribute even more to customer satisfaction and the company's success, e.g.:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Amazon Go - cashier-free stores</p></li>\n <li><p>AI-powered home robots</p></li>\n <li><p>game streaming services</p></li>\n <li><p>investing in self-driving technology</p></li>\n <li><p>building a fleet of delivery drones, etc.</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>How did the business perform?</b></p>\n<p>Amazon does not provide as detailed information about its user base asAlibaba(BABA). Investors have only vague data announced from time to time during Earnings Calls or from Letters to Shareholders. For example,in the last letter, Jeff Bezos writes that Amazon Prime has already over 200 million members.Over 75% are Americans. However, the number of active users is much higher. Already inQ2 2016, there were over 300 million active customers globally.</p>\n<p>Let's move to the financial information to see the revenue generation power of Amazon's customers. The revenue is growing consistently at a high rate. The pre-pandemic slowdown was quickly corrected last year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00ea9010cdf36960ced3316748d5b396\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>The significance of the AWS, the golden goose of Amazon, and its contribution to the revenue was also growing from 7% in 2015 to almost 12% in 2020. Disappointing is the fact that the international sales represent currently only 27% of total revenue (a drop from 33% in 2015). It reduces the diversification of revenue streams and shows that the competition abroad is strong.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d8e5447ded18a889ea1ff7cdf37b342a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>On a plus side, we can see below that all segments are growing, but international revenue is simply growing slower than sales in North America or AWS. Another small positive is the fact that international sales saw last year almost 40% jump, slightly better than the other two segments.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5550abe99358bb2a60e8552476cb096\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>Similar to revenue, the operating income made a huge jump last year as COVID hit.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7cf5a471f3cc5f3e15ad0436cc7f9a7b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>The biggest contribution to the operating income is AWS.

We may attribute this positive result to two factors - improving the efficiency of operation and favorable currency exchange rate last year.</p>\n<p>Let's have a look at Amazon's margins below. They are nicely trending higher almost every year. There are at least a few good reasons for that e.g. the scale of Amazon's operation, growing AWS, cash flow from Amazon Prime, and other subscription services. Margin expansion underlines the quality of the business and the good investment decisions of the management.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e935c9bf800475aa0017d40f8fb1920\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"296\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>In annual reports, Amazon presents also an alternative way of categorizing revenue streams. The chart \"Net sales by groups of similar products and services\" summarizes this method for the last few years. In 2020, slightly over 50% was attributed to online stores. We can see that AWS, advertising, subscriptions, and 3rd party seller services are growing faster than online stores. It shows the strength and diversity of Amazon's platform. It is nicely reflected in growing margins and recurring revenue streams.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c9394fd8d8fb6183d2e32bdb24c02b6f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>The growth for all segments is very strong. I would like to underscore here one component - advertising (\"Other\" in the chart below). It is still pretty small with \"only\" ~$21bn in revenue but is growing at a staggering pace, adding another very lucrative business area to Amazon's portfolio.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a5cf6ce184acc5b763aeb00f34b69b54\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>Last but not least, the amount of free cash flow (\"FCF\") generated may show the quality of the business. It is one of the most important metrics for shareholders. FCF is used to pay dividends, repurchase shares, or for acquisitions. Amazon provides investors with three different metrics of FCF trying to adjust standard definition (FCF = Cash from Operations - Capex) to include heavy usage of finance leases used for faster expansion of AWS infrastructure and other equipment.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/66290fc24e1df8192026a2305de99933\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p>The most important is the fact that all three metrics are rising. The Internet explains all of them for those interested in the nitty-gritty details of accounting.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa13303f053af872d639e94fcfae68ca\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports</span></p>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<p>Note: I suggest subtracting 1,3% from CAGRs calculated below. 1,3% is an average shareholder dilution over the last 5 years. As long as there is no meaningful repurchase program, the dilution will continue.</p>\n<p><b>Simulation of P/EPS</b></p>\n<p>Analyst estimate is that Amazon's EPS will grow at 38% on average for the next five years. Assuming massive ratio reduction (from the current P/E=61 to P/E=18-26), we arrive at a potential return between 47% and 113% in 2026 (or 8% to 16% CAGR).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1a6f6320356bfd13c8cd1423f5c4997c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"424\"><span>Source: Own calculation</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f7d373e66cfae1c02a39f11f735644db\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\"><span>Source: Own calculation</span></p>\n<p><b>DCF</b></p>\n<p>For DCF analysis I use Free Cash Flow less equipment finance leases and principal repayments of all other finance leases and financing obligations. With Amazon, this metric better presents the ability of the business to generate cash than standard FCF.</p>\n<p>I simulated much lower growth than presented in the last five years (and lower than analysts suggest). The reason is to be conservative and show likely outcomes of investing in Amazon at the current share price.</p>\n<p><b>DCF Worst-Case Scenario</b></p>\n<p>FCF growth drops gradually from 20% in 2021 to 11% in 2030. The first implication of this assumption is that the FCF in 2030 will be 4,5x higher than it is today. That would also imply that the current share price of ~$3200 will probably return around 6% annually.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/776195c42bbdbd69b1bfe5f22651ca12\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"245\"><span>Source: Own calculation</span></p>\n<p><b>DCF Best-Case Scenario</b></p>\n<p>FCF growth drops gradually from 26% in 2021 to 17% in 2030. The FCF in 2030 would be almost 8x higher. That would also mean that the current share price of ~$3200 will probably deliver a return of 8% per annum.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93471937eb050c18cabebb3ea4d3270c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"245\"><span>Source: Own calculation</span></p>\n<p><b>Price to Sales</b></p>\n<p>In the last few years, it was a good deal to buy AMZN when the PS ratio was at 3,3 or lower (with average PS=3,6).</p>\n<p>PS TTM is currently at 3.9. That suggests a slight overvaluation between 10-15%. PS=3,3 would represent the price of $2750 per share. Buying at an average PS=3,6 would mean waiting for the price to fall to $3000.</p>\n<p>There is also a second option: the price will move sideways for the next 1-2 quarters and let the business catch up. Looking at forecasted sales growth, it will happen sooner rather than later.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02b247d1eaf407d6569dd5465ebf0a3b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"581\"><span>Source:Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>2020 was for Amazon a great year. For Amazon shareholders too. Coronavirus caused a rapid acceleration in shifting the way we work, spend our free time, and buy things. It led to an explosion in revenues and profits. As a result, the share price doubled in a matter of a few months. But this is not over. Every single part of Amazon keeps growing at a high double-digit rate. And it will not stop soon.</p>\n<p>A lot of this growth is already in the share price. However, even quite conservative analysis shows that buying AMZN today may still generate at least 6-8% return p.a. in a long run. If the company continues improving efficiency, keeps innovating, and expands its portfolio of great products, the return may be even higher.</p>\n<p>To sum it up, I rate Amazon shares to be fairly valued and expect better-than-average performance.</p>","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>Amazon: The Virtuous Cycle At A Fair Price</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\">\nAmazon: The Virtuous Cycle At A Fair Price\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-14 11:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434620-amazon-the-virtuous-cycle-at-a-fair-price><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAmazon's business is firing on all cylinders, giving its investors many reasons to smile.\nThe company is reinforcing its moat in e-commerce, cloud services and grabbing aggressively its share...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434620-amazon-the-virtuous-cycle-at-a-fair-price\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"亚马逊"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434620-amazon-the-virtuous-cycle-at-a-fair-price","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1146011836","content_text":"Summary\n\nAmazon's business is firing on all cylinders, giving its investors many reasons to smile.\nThe company is reinforcing its moat in e-commerce, cloud services and grabbing aggressively its share in ads from Google and Facebook duopoly.\nA growing share of high-margin activities improves cash flow at rapid pace.\nAt the current level, the share price represents at least 6-8% return p.a.\n\nPhoto by coldsnowstorm/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nAmazon (AMZN) is a very diversified business with many sources of revenue. Its size, strong brand, and leadership position in e-commerce and cloud services give it an immense moat. The advertisement branch makes Google and Facebook's duopoly sweat. The growth in all sectors is simply remarkable for a company of its size. It all does not leave any doubt that Amazon's future is bright.\nAlso, the price for this outstanding business is pretty attractive. Simple and conservative estimates show a safe 6-8% return per annum. In the world of a zero interest rate, Amazon shares are a bargain.\nThe Virtuous Cycle, aka Scale Economies Shared\nAlmost twenty-five years ago, Jeff Bezos laid a foundation for his company. At its core lies customer-centricity. The idea is pretty simple: exceptional customer experience brings more traffic and sellers with their products. A growing platform scale lowers the prices, which improves customer experience even further. By broadening product offerings, reducing prices, improving delivery time, and selling the highest-quality services, Amazon wins customer loyalty and expands its customer base.\nSource:Amazon - The Virtuous Cycle\nPutting customer experience at the center of every action combined with innovation spirit and readiness for failure has created a company that is redefining the way we shop, work, and spend our free time. Chapeau bas for management for sticking to those rules till these days, successful execution and constantly raising the bar to create more value for society.\nWhat do you get buying Amazon?\nAll invested in Amazon know exactly why they own the shares. Leadership in life-changing trends, enormous growth, innovation, dominance, and of course huge profits. All checked. Let's put some numbers behind those buzzwords to prove it.\nE-commerce\nWe start with e-commerce. This year the company is expected toincrease its US retail e-commerce market share to 40.4%. Walmart, second on the list, is going to enjoy only 7.1%. A clear sign of dominance. The sales growth is going to continue. After a Covid turbocharged 44.1% rise last year, analysts predict 15.3% in 2021. That means slowing down tothe average e-commerce growth in the US over the last decade.\nThe international footprint is also growing nicely. In 2020, 27% of revenue came from abroad. And they are still expanding to new markets (in March 2021 they entered Poland startingamazon.pl).\nSource: Amazon Annual Report 2020\nThere are two trends in retail sales that are going to benefit Amazon in the coming years. First, overall consumption and spending are growing together with the economy. But most importantly, a share of e-commerce retail vs. total retail sales is going to increase.In 2020, it was already 21.3% for the USA, up from 6.4% in 2010. Still less than e.g. in China, where the National Bureau of Statistics of China estimated online retail penetration to be at 24.9% in 2020.\nAs Jeff Bezos predicted, the virtuous cycle is self-reinforcing and attracting more and more customers and merchants to the platform every year. Last Amazon's report shows that the number of sold products increases pretty fast, so do SMBs' profits. Amazon is fueling its success by intensive investments in logistics, analysis tools, and services, which lead to growing Amazon success and so on.\nSource:Amazon SMB Impact Report 2020\nSource: Amazon SMB Impact Report 2020\nAWS\nWhether it’s technology giants, television networks, banks, food manufacturers, or governments, many organizations are using AWS to develop, deploy and host applications. The biggest customers are well-known brands such asNetflix, Adobe, Apple, LinkedIn, Twitter, BBC, and many more.\nIt is another area that has sped upbecause of the COVID-19 pandemic. Implementation of stay-at-home policies for consumers, work-from-home policies for employees generated enormous demand and caused much higher than initially expected cloud usage.\nAmazon invests heavily in the data centers and expands its geographical footprint. The company offers a broad and rapidly growing portfolio of cloud services. All these efforts to satisfy customers' needs have given Amazon aworldwide leadership position.\nStrong double-digit demand for cloud services is going to continue in the next few years. Forecasts say that in 2021 the whole segment value will reach$330bn, up 23% from 2020. AWS as a dominant force with almosta third of market sharein IaaS and PaaS will surely enjoy growing revenues and profits.\nAdvertising\nGoogle or Facebook make money by advertising different products and services. Their algorithms are very efficient in targeting selected audience groups. They are great at defining what may be of interest for me, for you, and every single web user. But they do not have the same insights as Amazon has. Amazon knows exactly what people buy, how they buy it, and how much of it they buy. The knowledge of what movies Amazon Prime customers are watching, what music and books they consume, gives Amazon an even more complete picture of the consumer journey.\nHere, the trend is once again Amazon's friend. Totalad spending continues to riseyear after year at a double-digit rate. Digital ads are already a dominant form of marketing and as people have more electronic devices connected to the Internet, they continue to be the most important channel to reach customers.\nAmazon has been very successful in this field. The company is alreadythe third power in advertising in the USAwith 10% of the market share. They are expanding especially at Google's cost as more people search for specific products directly on Amazon's website circumventing Google's search engine. Analysts predict that both Google and Facebook are going to lose their market share in the coming years,whereas Amazon continues to grab a bigger part of the growing pie.\nLooking at advertising revenue (classified as \"Other\" in the annual report), we can assume that it grew at a whopping rate of 50% last year. As cloud services, it is a very profitable, high-margin activity that will nicely continue to increase Amazon's bottom line in the future.\nSource: Amazon Annual Report 2020\nAmazon Prime\nOther powerful revenue engines are subscription services i.e. Amazon Prime membership fees, video-on-demand, etc. What Amazon offers its customers is pretty unique - by subscribing they get a combination of cheaper and faster orders' delivery and access to a rich library of movies, series, and songs. And it is very affordable! Thanks to that the retention rate is very high and the user base is constantly growing, exceeding already 200 million people. And almost130 million are using the Video Prime service at least once a month. That gives Amazon Prime Video servicesecond position worldwide just behind Netflix.\nAgain, also from this trend, Amazon is trying to make use of. The expectations are that OTT and VoD services will growbetween 14%and18% for the next 4-5 years.The acquisition of MGMand gaining such IPs like James Bond, The Silence of the Lambs, Fargo, and a few thousand others, shows that the company takes it pretty seriously and will fight for its share of the pie.\nLooking once more into the annual report, we may see that subscription services brought ~$25bn in FY 2020. It seems not much compared to $386bn of total revenue, but $25bn was also the total revenue of Netflix last year! And it is growing faster than Netflix revenue.\nSource: Amazon Annual Report 2020\nOthers\nIf it was not enough, Amazon constantly tries to revolutionize some aspects of our lives and create new expansion opportunities. It isa leader in the smart speaker market(50% of the US market). Kindle dominates the e-reader market in the USA. FireTV streams videos to millions of homes. Etc., etc.\nMany experimental initiatives can easily become another mega-trend and contribute even more to customer satisfaction and the company's success, e.g.:\n\nAmazon Go - cashier-free stores\nAI-powered home robots\ngame streaming services\ninvesting in self-driving technology\nbuilding a fleet of delivery drones, etc.\n\nHow did the business perform?\nAmazon does not provide as detailed information about its user base asAlibaba(BABA). Investors have only vague data announced from time to time during Earnings Calls or from Letters to Shareholders. For example,in the last letter, Jeff Bezos writes that Amazon Prime has already over 200 million members.Over 75% are Americans. However, the number of active users is much higher. Already inQ2 2016, there were over 300 million active customers globally.\nLet's move to the financial information to see the revenue generation power of Amazon's customers. The revenue is growing consistently at a high rate. The pre-pandemic slowdown was quickly corrected last year.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nThe significance of the AWS, the golden goose of Amazon, and its contribution to the revenue was also growing from 7% in 2015 to almost 12% in 2020. Disappointing is the fact that the international sales represent currently only 27% of total revenue (a drop from 33% in 2015). It reduces the diversification of revenue streams and shows that the competition abroad is strong.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nOn a plus side, we can see below that all segments are growing, but international revenue is simply growing slower than sales in North America or AWS. Another small positive is the fact that international sales saw last year almost 40% jump, slightly better than the other two segments.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nSimilar to revenue, the operating income made a huge jump last year as COVID hit.\n\nThe biggest contribution to the operating income is AWS. In 2020, cloud services generated over $13bn, which represented ~60% of total profits.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nNorth America brought around $9bn or 37% of the total operating income last year.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nProfits from AWS and North America used to subsidize international retail sales which only last year turned profitable. We may attribute this positive result to two factors - improving the efficiency of operation and favorable currency exchange rate last year.\nLet's have a look at Amazon's margins below. They are nicely trending higher almost every year. There are at least a few good reasons for that e.g. the scale of Amazon's operation, growing AWS, cash flow from Amazon Prime, and other subscription services. Margin expansion underlines the quality of the business and the good investment decisions of the management.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nIn annual reports, Amazon presents also an alternative way of categorizing revenue streams. The chart \"Net sales by groups of similar products and services\" summarizes this method for the last few years. In 2020, slightly over 50% was attributed to online stores. We can see that AWS, advertising, subscriptions, and 3rd party seller services are growing faster than online stores. It shows the strength and diversity of Amazon's platform. It is nicely reflected in growing margins and recurring revenue streams.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nThe growth for all segments is very strong. I would like to underscore here one component - advertising (\"Other\" in the chart below). It is still pretty small with \"only\" ~$21bn in revenue but is growing at a staggering pace, adding another very lucrative business area to Amazon's portfolio.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nLast but not least, the amount of free cash flow (\"FCF\") generated may show the quality of the business. It is one of the most important metrics for shareholders. FCF is used to pay dividends, repurchase shares, or for acquisitions. Amazon provides investors with three different metrics of FCF trying to adjust standard definition (FCF = Cash from Operations - Capex) to include heavy usage of finance leases used for faster expansion of AWS infrastructure and other equipment.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nThe most important is the fact that all three metrics are rising. The Internet explains all of them for those interested in the nitty-gritty details of accounting.\nSource: Chart created by the author with data from annual reports\nValuation\nNote: I suggest subtracting 1,3% from CAGRs calculated below. 1,3% is an average shareholder dilution over the last 5 years. As long as there is no meaningful repurchase program, the dilution will continue.\nSimulation of P/EPS\nAnalyst estimate is that Amazon's EPS will grow at 38% on average for the next five years. Assuming massive ratio reduction (from the current P/E=61 to P/E=18-26), we arrive at a potential return between 47% and 113% in 2026 (or 8% to 16% CAGR).\nSource: Own calculation\nSource: Own calculation\nDCF\nFor DCF analysis I use Free Cash Flow less equipment finance leases and principal repayments of all other finance leases and financing obligations. With Amazon, this metric better presents the ability of the business to generate cash than standard FCF.\nI simulated much lower growth than presented in the last five years (and lower than analysts suggest). The reason is to be conservative and show likely outcomes of investing in Amazon at the current share price.\nDCF Worst-Case Scenario\nFCF growth drops gradually from 20% in 2021 to 11% in 2030. The first implication of this assumption is that the FCF in 2030 will be 4,5x higher than it is today. That would also imply that the current share price of ~$3200 will probably return around 6% annually.\nSource: Own calculation\nDCF Best-Case Scenario\nFCF growth drops gradually from 26% in 2021 to 17% in 2030. The FCF in 2030 would be almost 8x higher. That would also mean that the current share price of ~$3200 will probably deliver a return of 8% per annum.\nSource: Own calculation\nPrice to Sales\nIn the last few years, it was a good deal to buy AMZN when the PS ratio was at 3,3 or lower (with average PS=3,6).\nPS TTM is currently at 3.9. That suggests a slight overvaluation between 10-15%. PS=3,3 would represent the price of $2750 per share. Buying at an average PS=3,6 would mean waiting for the price to fall to $3000.\nThere is also a second option: the price will move sideways for the next 1-2 quarters and let the business catch up. Looking at forecasted sales growth, it will happen sooner rather than later.\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nConclusion\n2020 was for Amazon a great year. For Amazon shareholders too. Coronavirus caused a rapid acceleration in shifting the way we work, spend our free time, and buy things. It led to an explosion in revenues and profits. As a result, the share price doubled in a matter of a few months. But this is not over. Every single part of Amazon keeps growing at a high double-digit rate. And it will not stop soon.\nA lot of this growth is already in the share price. However, even quite conservative analysis shows that buying AMZN today may still generate at least 6-8% return p.a. in a long run. If the company continues improving efficiency, keeps innovating, and expands its portfolio of great products, the return may be even higher.\nTo sum it up, I rate Amazon shares to be fairly valued and expect better-than-average performance.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":866975894,"gmtCreate":1632730301418,"gmtModify":1632798256256,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586039357257394","authorIdStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/866975894","repostId":"1117744039","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1117744039","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":1632729349,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1117744039?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-27 15:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Citi launches tech hub in Bahrain to develop its digital platforms","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1117744039","media":"Reuters","summary":"DUBAI, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Citi launched on Monday a global technology hub at its Bahrain offices, t","content":"<p>DUBAI, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Citi launched on Monday a global technology hub at its Bahrain offices, the first of its kind in the region and with the aim of employing 1,000 coders over the next decade.</p>\n<p>The hub, based at Citi’s Bahrain premises, was set up in partnership with Tamkeen, a government-funded labour fund, and Bahrain’s Economic Development Board (EDB), which are also investing, a Citi executive said.</p>\n<p>Under the plan, Citi will hire at least 100 people in coding-related roles each year over the next 10 years.</p>\n<p>The new hires will initially work on two of the bank’s main platforms, Citi Velocity and Citi FX Policy, said Ala’a Saeed, Citi FX’s global head of electronic platforms and distribution.</p>\n<p>“Selecting our two flagship systems to develop out of here in Bahrain is a huge endorsement of the talent and the calibre of people that we’ve found here,” he said.</p>\n<p>Tamkeen will subsidise a portion of the salaries and cover training costs locally and abroad, said Tamkeen Chief Executive Hussain Mohammed Rajab, without disclosing figures.

After watching <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC) rise from $1 to $40,000 in a little over a decade, and seeing <b>Dogecoin</b> (CRYPTO:DOGE) gallop higher by 27,000% in a six-month span, investors are feeling compelled to chase the momentum in the crypto space.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this could prove to be a huge mistake.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e84aa34310d37f1ab30212f9dcf1bf0d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>The cryptocurrency bubble is eventually going to burst</h2>\n<p>While there's no denying that cryptocurrency has delivered some game-changing returns, most of this upside has been built on unsubstantiated hype. In other words, some folks view tokens like Bitcoin and Dogecoin as the future global currencies, but virtually nothing has suggested that this will come to fruition.</p>\n<p>The reality is that digital currencies are virtually useless outside of a cryptocurrency exchange. Bitcoin has been stuck handling 250,000 to 300,000 transactions daily for years, while Dogecoin has been averaging closer to 30,000 daily transactions of late. For comparison's sake, payment-processing giants <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b>&nbsp;and <b>Mastercard</b>&nbsp;handled 700 million transactions daily on a combined basis in 2018.</p>\n<p>To build on this point, Fundera estimated earlier this year that only around 15,200 businesses worldwide accepted Bitcoin. Meanwhile, online business directory Cryptwerk finds that Dogecoin is accepted by 1,400 companies.

There simply isn't the broad-based adoption that's being hyped by cryptocurrency supporters.</p>\n<p>At the same time, blockchain technology is caught in a Catch-22. Blockchain being the transparent and immutable underlying ledger of digital currencies that logs transactions. No business is willing to abandon time-tested infrastructure in favor of blockchain until it's demonstrated that blockchain can be scaled in the real world.

Even though Sea is far from inexpensive, the premium you'd be paying takes into account that it has three exceptionally fast-growing operating segments.</p>\n<p>For the time being, Sea is generating virtually all of its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) from its gaming division. Similar to online shopping, gaming benefited notably from people being stuck in their homes. Since Sea's mobile games target global audiences, and the pandemic is nowhere near over in many parts of the world, demand for gaming entertainment will likely remain robust. Over the past year (through the end of March), quarterly active paying users grew by 124%, with 12.3% of the company's total gamers now paying to play.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, Sea's crown jewel should be its e-commerce platform Shopee, which is consistently the most-popular shopping download in Southeastern Asia, and is gaining significant traction in Brazil. With a focus on emerging markets and regions where the middle class is growing at an incredible rate, Shopee saw gross orders jump 153% in the first quarter, with the gross merchandise value of these orders doubling to $12.6 billion. This is just the tip of the iceberg.</p>\n<p>Lastly, Sea's digital financial services division is bringing mobile wallet services to underbanked regions. Mobile wallet payment volume is on pace to potentially surpass $14 billion in 2021, with more than 26 million paying customers in Q1.</p>\n<p>If all goes well, Sea Limited's revenue could possibly quintuple over the next four years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e68ecb34d6e4fd6f7dc599908229a09a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"449\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>CrowdStrike Holdings</h2>\n<p>Cybersecurity stock <b>CrowdStrike Holdings</b> (NASDAQ:CRWD) is a third supercharged growth company that can easily outpace the returns from the cryptocurrency industry over the long run.</p>\n<p>Cybersecurity might not be the fastest-growing industry over the next decade, but it could very well be the safest double-digit growth opportunity. With more businesses than ever shifting their data online and into the cloud due to the pandemic, the importance of protecting enterprise and consumer data is greater than ever before. In short, demand for third-party cybersecurity solutions providers is soaring.</p>\n<p>While there is no shortage of cybersecurity specialists to choose from, what sets CrowdStrike apart is its cloud-native Falcon platform. Being built in the cloud, and relying on artificial intelligence, Falcon oversees approximately 6 trillion events each week. This is to say that CrowdStrike's core platform is getting smarter at recognizing and responding to potential threats over time. And in many instances, CrowdStrike's solutions are more efficient and cost-effective than on-premises security options.</p>\n<p>It's plainly evident from the company's operating results that Falcon is resonating with enterprise customers. It's been able to retain 98% of its customers for two consecutive years, and existing clients have spent between 23% and 47% more on a year-over-year basis for 12 straight quarters. Arguably even more impressive is that 64% of customers have purchased four or more cloud-module subscriptions, which is up from 9% just four years ago. It's this rapid scaling from the company's enterprise clients that has CrowdStrike generating a subscription gross margin in the upper 70% range.</p>\n<p>Investors should expect CrowdStrike to grow by 30% or more on an annual basis through the midpoint of the decade.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>Forget Crypto: These Supercharged Stocks Can Make You Rich</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\">\nForget Crypto: These Supercharged Stocks Can Make You Rich\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 18:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/23/forget-crypto-supercharged-stocks-make-you-rich/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The stock market has long been the preferred creator of wealth.

Although other investment vehicles, such as bonds or gold, have had superior performances for short stretches of time, no asset class has delivered better average annual returns than stocks over the long run.\nHowever, the emergence of cryptocurrencies is changing this mode of thinking. After watching Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) rise from $1 to $40,000 in a little over a decade, and seeing Dogecoin (CRYPTO:DOGE) gallop higher by 27,000% in a six-month span, investors are feeling compelled to chase the momentum in the crypto space.\nUnfortunately, this could prove to be a huge mistake.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nThe cryptocurrency bubble is eventually going to burst\nWhile there's no denying that cryptocurrency has delivered some game-changing returns, most of this upside has been built on unsubstantiated hype. In other words, some folks view tokens like Bitcoin and Dogecoin as the future global currencies, but virtually nothing has suggested that this will come to fruition.\nThe reality is that digital currencies are virtually useless outside of a cryptocurrency exchange. Bitcoin has been stuck handling 250,000 to 300,000 transactions daily for years, while Dogecoin has been averaging closer to 30,000 daily transactions of late. For comparison's sake, payment-processing giants Visa and Mastercard handled 700 million transactions daily on a combined basis in 2018.\nTo build on this point, Fundera estimated earlier this year that only around 15,200 businesses worldwide accepted Bitcoin. Meanwhile, online business directory Cryptwerk finds that Dogecoin is accepted by 1,400 companies. For context, there are more than 32 million businesses in the U.S., and an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs worldwide. There simply isn't the broad-based adoption that's being hyped by cryptocurrency supporters.\nAt the same time, blockchain technology is caught in a Catch-22. Blockchain being the transparent and immutable underlying ledger of digital currencies that logs transactions. No business is willing to abandon time-tested infrastructure in favor of blockchain until it's demonstrated that blockchain can be scaled in the real world. At the same time, there won't be any evidence that blockchain is revolutionary if no businesses are willing to be an early stage guinea pig, so to speak.\nHistory unequivocally shows that all bubbles eventually burst, without exception. That's the fate awaiting cryptocurrencies.\nDump digital currencies in favor of this fast-growing trio\nRather than put your money to work in an asset class that's being driven by hype and emotion, my suggestion would be to buy the following trio of supercharged stocks. If you buy stakes in innovative businesses whose products and services have growing real-world application, and you hold these stakes for long periods of time, you'll very likely get rich.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nEtsy\nTo begin with, e-commerce platform Etsy (NASDAQ:ETSY) will have long-term investors forgetting all about the volatility and hype associated with digital currencies.\nTo state the obvious, Etsy was a clear winner of the coronavirus pandemic.

SpaceX is a major contractor for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and U.S. Defense Department.\nAfter his initial post, Musk revisited a 3 1/2-year-old exchange with another Twitter user who criticized Tesla and SpaceX’s use of subsidies.\n“Combined Tesla+SpaceX market cap is now over $1.2T,” wrote Musk, who then took issue again with a figure mentioned in a May 2018 Twitter thread. Tesla shares fell as much as 3% shortly after the start of regular trading.\nTesla has almost completed construction of an EV factory in the small town of Gruenheide, southeast of the German capital, and also plans to manufacture battery cells at the site.\nWhile Musk wants to start assembling Tesla Model Ys in Gruenheide before the end of the year, local authorities still haven’t granted final approval for the project.\nGermany’s Economy Ministry, which had already approved the aid as part of the European Union’s IPCEI battery-innovation program, estimates that Tesla is investing around 5 billion euros in Gruenheide. Der Tagesspiegel newspaper reported Tesla’s decision earlier on Friday.\nMusk, 50, is the world’s richest person with a $304.4 billion fortune, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. He’s added $134.7 billion to his net worth this year, more than double the next-biggest gain in the index.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":539,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":832029405,"gmtCreate":1629544989307,"gmtModify":1631889299512,"author":{"id":"3586039357257394","authorId":"3586039357257394","name":"Eslechia","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3586039357257394","authorIdStr":"3586039357257394"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes!
