In a race to disrupt residential real estate, one of the largest markets in the world, Opendoor's long-term potential could bring big returns for patient investors.</p>\n<p>Despite the upside, the market hasn't yet appreciated Opendoor's accomplishments; the stock is down more than 50% from its highs. There are three important clues that Opendoor could be a compelling investment idea for bold investors.</p>\n<h3>1. Opendoor is winning the iBuying battle</h3>\n<p>The traditional home-buying process in the United States is slow and handled by multiple parties, including agents, lawyers, inspectors, and bankers. This creates a lot of back and forth paperwork and drags the process out to more than 30 days, on average.</p>\n<p>Opendoor pioneered the concept of \"iBuying,\" where the buying and selling of a house are digitized, and a company like Opendoor works directly with sellers to provide them with a cash offer and a digital closing process. The company then resells the house on the market. The iBuying process cuts out agents and some of the fees associated with traditional closings, such as agent commissions. Opendoor then resells the house on the market and charges a service fee of up to 5% on the transaction.</p>\n<p>After seeing Opendoor steadily grow with its iBuying concept, competitors have also begun to offer iBuying services, including&nbsp;<b>Zillow Group</b>&nbsp;and Offerpad. Because of how capital intensive the business is (a lot of money is needed to buy and sell thousands of houses) and how price competitive the housing market is, these companies are racing to get as big as possible. As the companies buy and sell more homes, they have the ability to become more profitable by leveraging outsourced contractors to save money, and its pricing algorithm improves as it sees more transactions.</p>\n<p>According to iBuyerStats, a website dedicated to tracking the competitors found in iBuying, Opendoor has consistently had the most housing inventory available for sale. It currently has roughly 3,300 houses for sale, 53% more than Zillow and more than four times as many as Offerpad.</p>\n<h3>2. Revenue growth is ahead of schedule</h3>\n<p>When companies go public viaSPACmerger, they lay out a public presentation of their business, often including long-term growth projections. Opendoor laid out its pre-merger investor presentation about a year ago, in September 2020.</p>\n<p>Fast forward to the company's recent 2021 Q2 earnings call. CEO and founder Eric Wu said on the earnings call, \"... based on our current progress, our second half revenue run rate is on track to exceed our 2023 target, a full two years ahead of plan.\"</p>\n<p>In other words, if Opendoor were to operate for 12 months at the level the business currently is, it would surpass the $9.8 billion in revenue it projected for 2023. This is an underlooked point because if Opendoor is already two years ahead of its original growth curve, where will it be by 2023? Sure, a dip in the housing market or other events could disrupt the company's speed of growth, but Opendoor is showing the world that the business is operating at a high level.</p>\n<h3>3. SPACs are out of favor with the market... opportunity?</h3>\n<p>Investors have overlooked this strong performance, focusing instead on the fact that Opendoor joined the public market via SPAC merger. It has hardly mattered what operating results or earnings have looked like for former SPACs; the stock market has been selling off virtually all SPAC-based stocks for several months now.</p>\n<p>Investors have been spooked by a handful of \"bad apple\" companies turning up fraudulent, and other companies have wildly missed on the projections they made before going public. These instances have burned those involved, and investors have taken a much more cautious attitude toward SPACs as a whole.</p>\n<p>But if companies like Opendoor keep blowing away estimates, the market is likely to come around eventually. When it does, the stock price could move aggressively. If we take Eric Wu's comments about revenue and assume that Opendoor does sales of $10 billion in 2022 (in other words, Opendoor stops growing and maintains its current pace over the following year), the stock currently trades at aprice-to-sales(P/S) ratio of just 1.0. That's a bargain-bin valuation.</p>\n<p>Competitor Zillow Group trades at a P/S ratio of more than 3, reflecting Opendoor's discount as a former SPAC.</p>\n<h3>Here's the bottom line</h3>\n<p>Real estate is a huge market, and it's a complicated industry because of the clash between traditional agents and the \"new kids\" on the block trying to bring technology into homebuying. It's too early to say that Opendoor will become the \"<b>Amazon</b>\" of home buying, but what seems certain is that the company is&nbsp;poised to be a big player&nbsp;in real estate's future if it keeps performing like this.</p>\n<p></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>This Unloved Tech Stock Could Make You Rich One Day</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\">\nThis Unloved Tech Stock Could Make You Rich One Day\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-29 09:41 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nThe iBuying business is a race to grow larger, and Opendoor is winning.\nThe company is growing at a rate that is two years ahead of what management projected just a year earlier.\nThe ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"OPEN":"Opendoor Technologies Inc"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1129129956","content_text":"Key Points\n\nThe iBuying business is a race to grow larger, and Opendoor is winning.\nThe company is growing at a rate that is two years ahead of what management projected just a year earlier.\nThe market is bearish on virtually all SPACs, making Opendoor a bargain that could eventually bring huge returns.\n\n\nReal estate iBuying company Opendoor Technologies(NASDAQ:OPEN)has been executing at a high level in the three quarters since coming public via a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger.

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”</p>\n<p><b>But ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.</b></p>\n<p><b>A Man In Search Of Himself:</b>&nbsp;Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.</p>\n<p>The Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He&nbsp;attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.</p>\n<p>Ebbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,<b>Linda Pigott,</b>after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.</p>\n<p>But Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.</p>\n<p>Ebbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric.&nbsp;He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.</p>\n<p><b>Calling Out Around The World:</b>Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup of<b>AT&amp;T Inc.'s</b>&nbsp;T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.</p>\n<p>In 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.</p>\n<p>Ebbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with&nbsp;<b>Long Distance Discount Services,</b>&nbsp;which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.</p>\n<p><b>Carl J. Aycock,</b>a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.</p>\n<p>“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.</p>\n<p>Maybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.</p>\n<p>Within 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in&nbsp;sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.</p>\n<p>Many of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of&nbsp;<b>Advanced Telecommunications Corporation</b>&nbsp;in 1992.</p>\n<p>The unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&amp;T and&nbsp;<b>Sprint Corporation,</b>both considerably larger players in this field.</p>\n<p>The one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to&nbsp;<b>Kristie Webb.</b></p>\n<p>In February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for&nbsp;<b>CompuServe</b>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<b>H&amp;R Block Inc</b>.</p>\n<p>This transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition to<b>America Online,</b>while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.</p>\n<p>In September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with&nbsp;<b>MCI Communications,</b>which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit —&nbsp;except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.</p>\n<p><b>A Little Out Of Touch:</b>One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.</p>\n<p>At the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.</p>\n<p>“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”</p>\n<p>But as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.</p>\n<p>And for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”</p>\n<p>While Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.</p>\n<p><b>In retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw</b>, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.</p>\n<p><b>Detour Off The Cliff:</b>The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom —&nbsp;which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country —&nbsp;announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier. Within nine months of this announcement, the merger was canceled in the face of pressure from U.S. and European regulators who feared a telecom monopoly would be born from this union. MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.</p>\n<p>With the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.</p>\n<p>Worldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a&nbsp;senior manager ordering&nbsp;a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.</p>\n<p>The company’s chief technical officer,<b>Fred Briggs,</b>then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project —&nbsp;and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.</p>\n<p>A WorldCom budget analyst named&nbsp;<b>Kim Amigh</b>in the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh —&nbsp;three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.</p>\n<p>But Vice President of Internal Audit&nbsp;<b>Cynthia Cooper</b>&nbsp;learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 —&nbsp;except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.</p>\n<p>Cooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy. Most executives said it was a “prepaid capacity,” a meaningless term which they couldn’t define when pressed by Cooper.</p>\n<p>And Cooper was not alone in her suspicions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could not fathom how WorldCom continued to claim robust profits during the dot-com period while its competitors were operating at a loss, and it sent forth a “Request for Information” to learn the secret of its success.</p>\n<p>Adding to this chaos were Ebbers’ personal financial woes, which became exacerbated during to dot-com crisis by margin calls on his WorldCom shares, which were tanking as the economy plummeted into a recession.</p>\n<p>To alleviate his monetary pain, Ebbers borrowed $50 million from WorldCom in September 2000&nbsp;— and then borrowed again&nbsp;and again. By April 2002, Ebbers was $400 million in debt to WorldCom and the board of directors demanded his resignation, which he provided.</p>\n<p>In June 2002, WorldCom acknowledged its earnings reports contained $3.9 billion in accounting misstatements, with the figure&nbsp;later adjusted to $11 billion. In July 2002, the company declared bankruptcy and was delisted from public trading. Also during that month, Ebbers was called before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services to explain what happened. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment.</p>\n<p><b>Road’s End:</b>The efforts to bring Ebbers to trial got off to a weird start when the State of Oklahoma jumped the gun with a 15-count indictment, only to drop its charges in favor of federal prosecution.</p>\n<p>Ebbers was indicted in May 2004 on seven counts of filing false statements with securities regulators plus one count each of conspiracy and securities fraud. Ebbers agreed to testify on his behalf, which many observers later considered to be a major mistake because he came across as evasive and unconvincing when insisting WorldCom’s downfall was solely the fault of his subordinates and that he was ignorant about how his company worked.</p>\n<p>“I know what I don’t know,” Ebbers said during his trial. “To this day, I don’t know technology, and I don’t know finance or accounting.”</p>\n<p>Ebbers was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to 25 years in prison, the longest sentence ever handed down in U.S. history for a financial fraud case against a corporate executive.</p>\n<p>He remained free on bail while fighting to overturn the verdict, but the conviction was upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in July 2006. Two months later, he drove himself in his luxury Mercedes-Benz to a low-security Louisiana prison to begin his sentence. Two years later, his wife Kristie successfully filed for divorce.</p>\n<p>After 13 years behind bars, Ebbers was granted a compassionate release on Dec. 21, 2019, due to a deteriorating state of health that included macular degeneration that left him legally blind, anemia, a weakened heart condition and the beginnings of dementia. He returned to his home in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and passed away on Feb. 2, 2020.</p>\n<p>In defining his rise to the top, Ebbers harkened back to his basketball days by insisting, “The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.” But in explaining his fall from grace, Ebbers forgot that the core of coaching is accepting responsibility for the team’s performance and he blamed his “best players” for not being able to “play together” while absolving himself from their errors.</p>\n<p>Said Ebbers when confronted with his ultimate failure as the corporate equivalent of a coach: “I didn't have anything to apologize for.”</p>\n<p></p>","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”\nBut ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.\nA Man In Search Of Himself: Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.\nThe Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.\nEbbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,Linda Pigott,after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.\nBut Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.\nEbbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric. He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.\nCalling Out Around The World:Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup ofAT&T Inc.'s T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.\nIn 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.\nEbbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with Long Distance Discount Services, which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.\nCarl J. Aycock,a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.\n“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.\nMaybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.\nWithin 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.\nMany of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of Advanced Telecommunications Corporation in 1992.\nThe unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&T and Sprint Corporation,both considerably larger players in this field.\nThe one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to Kristie Webb.\nIn February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for CompuServe from H&R Block Inc.\nThis transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition toAmerica Online,while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.\nIn September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with MCI Communications,which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit — except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.\nA Little Out Of Touch:One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.\nAt the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.\n“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”\nBut as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.\nAnd for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”\nWhile Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.\nIn retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.\nDetour Off The Cliff:The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom — which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country — announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier.

MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.\nWith the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.\nWorldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a senior manager ordering a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.\nThe company’s chief technical officer,Fred Briggs,then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project — and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.\nA WorldCom budget analyst named Kim Amighin the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh — three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.\nBut Vice President of Internal Audit Cynthia Cooper learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 — except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.\nCooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy.

Cry","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1101483173","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Positive news on these short-squeeze stocks could spell trouble for investors selling short.\n\nSince ","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>Positive news on these short-squeeze stocks could spell trouble for investors selling short.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Since the end of the late May/early June meme stock wave, short squeeze stocks remain out of favor. As seen in last month, names touted on Reddit’s<i>r/WallStreetBets</i>as names ripe for a squeeze sold off considerably. This left investors who got in too late holding the bag with substantial losses.</p>\n<p>The past few weeks may have been tough for traders employing this approach. The overall trend may be on the wane. But that’s not to say several of the most heavily shorted stocks don’t have room to pop. How so? Right now, there are scores of names that have been beaten down by investors overreacting to negative developments.</p>\n<p>Short-sellers have fanned the flames by fading these stocks as they headed lower. Yet looking at their respective details, it’s clear the factors that sent these stocks lower in the first place have been blown out of proportion. There is high possibility of these companies surprising investors by demonstrating their financial situation isn’t so dire They could leave their respective crowded short sides scrambling to cover positions.</p>\n<p>So, which names could possibly see a tremendous pop from a squeeze? Any of these seven short-squeeze stocks, each with catalysts that could shift sentiment from negative back to positive, may do just that:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Geo Group</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GEO</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Ontrak</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>OTRK</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>PubMatic</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>PUBM</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Support.com</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>SPRT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Workhorse</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>WKHS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>SCWorx</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>WORX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Exela Technologies</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>XELA</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Short-Squeeze Stocks: Geo Group (GEO)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d0559f2ca432aad7db15011652d78e1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: JosephRouse / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>After getting hammered byPresident Joe Biden’s executive orderthat puts an end to privately-run federal prisons, Geo Group was squeezed back to near its pre-executive order prices thanks to the short squeeze frenzy that played out in late May and early June. Is another squeeze possible?</p>\n<p>Yes, considering the factors at play. The so-called smart money is still betting against it, as36.4% of its outstanding float remains sold shortMore improvements to the company’s prospects could help GEO stock continue to make its way out of single-digits, and toward levels it traded for just a few years back ($15 to $20 per share).</p>\n<p>Sure, it still sounds bad that the current administration has pushed for this company, and its peer,<b>CoreCivic</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CXW</u></b>), to lose a market (Federal Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals Service contracts) that make up a fair amount of their operations. Yet, this development does not impact state and local prison contracts, or contracts with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.</p>\n<p>Oversold to a point where it trades at a dirt cheap forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio (4.2x), GEO stock could have ample room to soar, once the longs realize Biden’s order won’t put private prison companies out of business, and short-sellers quickly move to unwind their heavy short positions.</p>\n<p><b>Ontrak (OTRK)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/808ddaee77f24ec27b13f8a144471835\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Six months ago, healthcare analytics play OTRK stock blew up, falling from over $90 per share, to less than $25 per share. What caused this, and why has it so far failed to recover, even partially?</p>\n<p>As<i>InvestorPlace’s</i>Tezcan Gecgil broke it down July 12,the loss of one of its major customers,<b>CVS Health</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CVS</u></b>) unit<b>Aetna</b>, caused its massive price decline. The short side continues to bet against it. This may explain why it’s remained stuck near the $25 per share price levels.</p>\n<p>Recent troubles, and heavy shorting of it aside, there may be a big opportunity here for those willing to take the long side of this trade. Ontrak may have lost a large amount of its sales when Aetna ended the relationship. But as seen from its revenue estimates for 2022 (projecting 37.25% growth), any additional trouble for the top line could be short lived. Ontrak appears well positioned to more than make up for the loss of Aetna, with scores of other potential clients.</p>\n<p>It may not have room to zoom back to its pre-crash prices above $90 per share. Yet, further news that confirms it’s still a fast-growing company could enable it to see another big boost. Consider this one of the short-squeeze stocks to keep on your radar.</p>\n<p><b>WEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”</b></p>\n<p><b>Short-Squeeze Stocks: PubMatic (PUBM)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2e3300cfba1d38a927ab7a7cc7dcd3f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Tada Images / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Back in June, I called PUBM stock, a play in the programmatic (digital) advertising space, one of thebest Reddit stocks to&nbsp; throw $100 into. The reason? The potential for this heavily shorted stock to go on the kind of epic squeeze<b>Clover Health</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CLOV</u></b>) went in at that time.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this did not play out. After going from less than $30 per share to prices above $42.50 per share, it gave up its gains. Now at around $26 per share, it’s back to square one. Yet, as short-interest in this stock remains high (30% of float), could there be room for it to get squeezed one more time?</p>\n<p>It depends. It may have high short-interest. But that’s only one part of the equation. For a squeeze to happen, it needs to gin up enthusiasm about retail investors on the long side. However, given retail trader interest in it has gone up and down several times this year (as seen on the r/WSB tracker), it may not be something you want to rule out.</p>\n<p>A return to its all-time high (nearly $77 per share) may be a stretch goal, to say the least.

As seen in last month, names touted on Reddit’sr/WallStreetBetsas names ripe for a squeeze sold off considerably. This left investors who got in too late holding the bag with substantial losses.\nThe past few weeks may have been tough for traders employing this approach. The overall trend may be on the wane. But that’s not to say several of the most heavily shorted stocks don’t have room to pop. How so? Right now, there are scores of names that have been beaten down by investors overreacting to negative developments.\nShort-sellers have fanned the flames by fading these stocks as they headed lower. Yet looking at their respective details, it’s clear the factors that sent these stocks lower in the first place have been blown out of proportion. There is high possibility of these companies surprising investors by demonstrating their financial situation isn’t so dire They could leave their respective crowded short sides scrambling to cover positions.\nSo, which names could possibly see a tremendous pop from a squeeze? Any of these seven short-squeeze stocks, each with catalysts that could shift sentiment from negative back to positive, may do just that:\n\nGeo Group(NYSE:GEO)\nOntrak (NASDAQ:OTRK)\nPubMatic(NASDAQ:PUBM)\nSupport.com(NASDAQ:SPRT)\nWorkhorse(NASDAQ:WKHS)\nSCWorx(NASDAQ:WORX)\nExela Technologies(NASDAQ:XELA)\n\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: Geo Group (GEO)Source: JosephRouse / Shutterstock.com\nAfter getting hammered byPresident Joe Biden’s executive orderthat puts an end to privately-run federal prisons, Geo Group was squeezed back to near its pre-executive order prices thanks to the short squeeze frenzy that played out in late May and early June. Is another squeeze possible?\nYes, considering the factors at play. The so-called smart money is still betting against it, as36.4% of its outstanding float remains sold shortMore improvements to the company’s prospects could help GEO stock continue to make its way out of single-digits, and toward levels it traded for just a few years back ($15 to $20 per share).\nSure, it still sounds bad that the current administration has pushed for this company, and its peer,CoreCivic(NYSE:CXW), to lose a market (Federal Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals Service contracts) that make up a fair amount of their operations. Yet, this development does not impact state and local prison contracts, or contracts with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.\nOversold to a point where it trades at a dirt cheap forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio (4.2x), GEO stock could have ample room to soar, once the longs realize Biden’s order won’t put private prison companies out of business, and short-sellers quickly move to unwind their heavy short positions.\nOntrak (OTRK)Source: Shutterstock\nSix months ago, healthcare analytics play OTRK stock blew up, falling from over $90 per share, to less than $25 per share. What caused this, and why has it so far failed to recover, even partially?\nAsInvestorPlace’sTezcan Gecgil broke it down July 12,the loss of one of its major customers,CVS Health(NYSE:CVS) unitAetna, caused its massive price decline. The short side continues to bet against it. This may explain why it’s remained stuck near the $25 per share price levels.\nRecent troubles, and heavy shorting of it aside, there may be a big opportunity here for those willing to take the long side of this trade. Ontrak may have lost a large amount of its sales when Aetna ended the relationship. But as seen from its revenue estimates for 2022 (projecting 37.25% growth), any additional trouble for the top line could be short lived. Ontrak appears well positioned to more than make up for the loss of Aetna, with scores of other potential clients.\nIt may not have room to zoom back to its pre-crash prices above $90 per share. Yet, further news that confirms it’s still a fast-growing company could enable it to see another big boost. Consider this one of the short-squeeze stocks to keep on your radar.\nWEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: PubMatic (PUBM)Source: Tada Images / Shutterstock.com\nBack in June, I called PUBM stock, a play in the programmatic (digital) advertising space, one of thebest Reddit stocks to  throw $100 into. The reason? The potential for this heavily shorted stock to go on the kind of epic squeezeClover Health(NASDAQ:CLOV) went in at that time.\nUnfortunately, this did not play out. After going from less than $30 per share to prices above $42.50 per share, it gave up its gains. Now at around $26 per share, it’s back to square one. Yet, as short-interest in this stock remains high (30% of float), could there be room for it to get squeezed one more time?\nIt depends. It may have high short-interest. But that’s only one part of the equation. For a squeeze to happen, it needs to gin up enthusiasm about retail investors on the long side. However, given retail trader interest in it has gone up and down several times this year (as seen on the r/WSB tracker), it may not be something you want to rule out.\nA return to its all-time high (nearly $77 per share) may be a stretch goal, to say the least. But given even a partial rebound would mean a big percentage gain on your investment, PUBM stock remains very appealing as a short squeeze play.\nSupport.com (SPRT)Source: Mark Agnor / Shutterstock.com\nSupport.com stock has made a stunning recovery in recent weeks. Largely, due the price ofBitcoin(CCC:BTC-USD) making a comeback. Don’t let this company’s name confuse you:once its reverse merger deal closes, the company will become a crypto mining play namedGreenidge Generation.\nNot only that, it may end up being one of the better crypto mining plays out there.

This segment is helping drive frequency, retention and efficiency for the company with frequency hitting record highs in the quarter.\nDoorDash’s non-restaurant orders could have been placed by 10% of the company’s users in the second quarter, compared to 7% of orders in the first quarter, Josey said.\nThe analyst also noted the addition of more than 5,000 convenience stores in the second quarter including Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc (NASDAQ:WBA), Rite Aid Corporation (NYSE:RAD), Albertsons Companies Inc (NYSE:ACI), PetSmart and Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ:BBBY) locations.\n“Over 30% of DASH’s business came from orders outside restaurants in Q2, early data suggest that multi-category customers increase both their retention and engagement rates,” Fitzgerald said.\nWhat’s Next: International growth, investments in new categories and a healthy supply of Dashers are highlighted by Josey.\n“DASH deserves a premium to the peer set,” Sandler said.\n“We expect DASH shares to continue to grind higher as its U.S. market share and momentum continue to resonate,” Fitzgerald said. “If DASH can replicate the operational prowess it has demonstrated in the U.S. as a fast follower in international markets, we think shares have significantly more upside in the coming years.”\nAdditional grocery delivery is expected to roll out in the second half of the year “providing opportunities to become a second logistics source for some key accounts,” highlights Fitzgerald.\nDoorDash has some regulatory headwinds in large cities such as San Francisco and New York City but Lee sees these being less than feared. Management sees momentum carrying into the third quarter, the analyst notes.\n“Given investments in new categories and international markets we believe the level of incremental investment represents the greatest risk to our forecast,” McTernan said.\nDASH Price Action: DoorDash shares rose 3.5% to $194.79 on Friday.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"ACI":0.9,"BBBY":0.9,"DASH":0.9,"QTWO":0.9,"RAD":0.9,"WBA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":359,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":897283829,"gmtCreate":1628922870561,"gmtModify":1633688451933,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087297072458000","authorIdStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"nice","listText":"nice","text":"nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/897283829","repostId":"2159521376","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2159521376","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1628906786,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2159521376?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-14 10:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chasing Tesla: Here are the current electric vehicle plans of every major car maker","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2159521376","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"At President Joe Biden's urging, the auto industry pledged to boost production of electric vehicles ","content":"<p>At President Joe Biden's urging, the auto industry pledged to boost production of electric vehicles to the point that they account for about half of total U.S. sales by 2030, a plan that raises hopes that EVs can shift from niche to normal.</p>\n<p>EVs accounted for 2.4% of U.S. cars sold in 2020, up from 0.7% five years ago, according to BloombergNEF.

The ride inspired a 1997 made-for-television Disney film with Steve Guttenbergand the studio has trying to develop a theatrical feature since 2015.\nWhat Else Happened:Besides giving “Tower of Terror” the kibosh, the studio is also closing the door on any potential future projects with Johansson, whosued Disneyover breach of contract in connection with having her “Black Widow” salary linked to the film’s theatrical release. The studio gave the film a simultaneous theatrical and streaming release, which Johansson said violated her contract and ensured she would be receiving less money for her performance.\nJohansson’s only other 2021 film role will be a voice performance in the animated film “Sing 2” from Comcast Corporation’s Universal Pictures, which is scheduled for a December release.

As seen in last month, names touted on Reddit’s<i>r/WallStreetBets</i>as names ripe for a squeeze sold off considerably. This left investors who got in too late holding the bag with substantial losses.</p>\n<p>The past few weeks may have been tough for traders employing this approach. The overall trend may be on the wane. But that’s not to say several of the most heavily shorted stocks don’t have room to pop. How so? Right now, there are scores of names that have been beaten down by investors overreacting to negative developments.</p>\n<p>Short-sellers have fanned the flames by fading these stocks as they headed lower. Yet looking at their respective details, it’s clear the factors that sent these stocks lower in the first place have been blown out of proportion. There is high possibility of these companies surprising investors by demonstrating their financial situation isn’t so dire They could leave their respective crowded short sides scrambling to cover positions.</p>\n<p>So, which names could possibly see a tremendous pop from a squeeze? Any of these seven short-squeeze stocks, each with catalysts that could shift sentiment from negative back to positive, may do just that:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Geo Group</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GEO</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Ontrak</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>OTRK</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>PubMatic</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>PUBM</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Support.com</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>SPRT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Workhorse</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>WKHS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>SCWorx</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>WORX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Exela Technologies</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>XELA</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Short-Squeeze Stocks: Geo Group (GEO)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d0559f2ca432aad7db15011652d78e1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: JosephRouse / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>After getting hammered byPresident Joe Biden’s executive orderthat puts an end to privately-run federal prisons, Geo Group was squeezed back to near its pre-executive order prices thanks to the short squeeze frenzy that played out in late May and early June. Is another squeeze possible?</p>\n<p>Yes, considering the factors at play. The so-called smart money is still betting against it, as36.4% of its outstanding float remains sold shortMore improvements to the company’s prospects could help GEO stock continue to make its way out of single-digits, and toward levels it traded for just a few years back ($15 to $20 per share).</p>\n<p>Sure, it still sounds bad that the current administration has pushed for this company, and its peer,<b>CoreCivic</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CXW</u></b>), to lose a market (Federal Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals Service contracts) that make up a fair amount of their operations. Yet, this development does not impact state and local prison contracts, or contracts with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.</p>\n<p>Oversold to a point where it trades at a dirt cheap forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio (4.2x), GEO stock could have ample room to soar, once the longs realize Biden’s order won’t put private prison companies out of business, and short-sellers quickly move to unwind their heavy short positions.</p>\n<p><b>Ontrak (OTRK)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/808ddaee77f24ec27b13f8a144471835\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Six months ago, healthcare analytics play OTRK stock blew up, falling from over $90 per share, to less than $25 per share. What caused this, and why has it so far failed to recover, even partially?</p>\n<p>As<i>InvestorPlace’s</i>Tezcan Gecgil broke it down July 12,the loss of one of its major customers,<b>CVS Health</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CVS</u></b>) unit<b>Aetna</b>, caused its massive price decline. The short side continues to bet against it. This may explain why it’s remained stuck near the $25 per share price levels.</p>\n<p>Recent troubles, and heavy shorting of it aside, there may be a big opportunity here for those willing to take the long side of this trade. Ontrak may have lost a large amount of its sales when Aetna ended the relationship. But as seen from its revenue estimates for 2022 (projecting 37.25% growth), any additional trouble for the top line could be short lived. Ontrak appears well positioned to more than make up for the loss of Aetna, with scores of other potential clients.</p>\n<p>It may not have room to zoom back to its pre-crash prices above $90 per share. Yet, further news that confirms it’s still a fast-growing company could enable it to see another big boost. Consider this one of the short-squeeze stocks to keep on your radar.</p>\n<p><b>WEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”</b></p>\n<p><b>Short-Squeeze Stocks: PubMatic (PUBM)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2e3300cfba1d38a927ab7a7cc7dcd3f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Tada Images / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Back in June, I called PUBM stock, a play in the programmatic (digital) advertising space, one of thebest Reddit stocks to&nbsp; throw $100 into. The reason? The potential for this heavily shorted stock to go on the kind of epic squeeze<b>Clover Health</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CLOV</u></b>) went in at that time.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this did not play out. After going from less than $30 per share to prices above $42.50 per share, it gave up its gains. Now at around $26 per share, it’s back to square one. Yet, as short-interest in this stock remains high (30% of float), could there be room for it to get squeezed one more time?</p>\n<p>It depends. It may have high short-interest. But that’s only one part of the equation. For a squeeze to happen, it needs to gin up enthusiasm about retail investors on the long side. However, given retail trader interest in it has gone up and down several times this year (as seen on the r/WSB tracker), it may not be something you want to rule out.</p>\n<p>A return to its all-time high (nearly $77 per share) may be a stretch goal, to say the least. But given even a partial rebound would mean a big percentage gain on your investment, PUBM stock remains very appealing as a short squeeze play.</p>\n<p><b>Support.com (SPRT)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d8e851ac7f057974c0b90f222bc47aa\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Mark Agnor / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Support.com stock has made a stunning recovery in recent weeks. Largely, due the price of<b>Bitcoin</b>(CCC:<b><u>BTC-USD</u></b>) making a comeback. Don’t let this company’s name confuse you:once its reverse merger deal closes, the company will become a crypto mining play named<b>Greenidge Generation</b>.</p>\n<p>Not only that, it may end up being one of the better crypto mining plays out there. With none of the red flags that are holding down<b>SOS Ltd.</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SOS</u></b>), and with its shares priced in a wayfavorable to existing holders of SPRT stock, those on the long side may have a lesser chance of getting burned than what the shorts believe today.</p>\n<p>Instead, the short side could be the ones experiencing further losses, as Support.com completes its crypto merger deal, and continues to rise to prices firmly in the double-digits. As<i>InvestorPlace’</i>s Christopher MacDonald wrote Aug. 14, the merger vote(scheduled for Sept. 10)is less than a month away.</p>\n<p>With something that could send it soaring (and the shorts scrambling) in a matter of weeks, now may be the time to snap up SPRT stock. Add in the possibility of the BTC continuing to increase in value, and this stock may soon have two factors helping it move higher.</p>\n<p><b>WEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”</b></p>\n<p><b>Short-Squeeze Stocks: Workhorse (WKHS)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d22df41e43333f8402bfe96c6d98f8e5\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Photo from WorkHorse.com</p>\n<p>Considering that itlost outin its highlypublicized bid to win the U.S. Postal Service vehicle contract, it makes sense why the shorts continue to bet so heavily against Workhorse stock. As of July 30,33.5% of its outstanding floatwere still sold short.</p>\n<p>Even after cratering following the bid loss, shares still trade at a valuation out of sync with its underlying assets. Yet there are many ways in this situation where the shorts could get squeezed, and those long WKHS stock could see massive gains. How?</p>\n<p>First, if it prevails in itsbid protest. The company is fighting the Postal Service decision to go with<b>Oshkosh’s</b>(NYSE:<b><u>OSK</u></b>) candidate. Admittedly, its chances of getting another shot at the contract via this route may be slim. Mostly, because the independent government agency was given authority by the U.S. Congress tooperate outside typical federal procurement rules.</p>\n<p>Fortunately, there are other paths for shares to pop on a squeeze. For example, if itmakes more progress with its HorseFly drone technology. Or, if the continued push to go green results in a big-ticket order from the private sector. Given it has little in the form of assets or a profitable operating business to fall back on, this is still one of the riskier short-squeeze stocks. But it may not take much in the form of positive news to send it popping once again.</p>\n<p><b>SCWorx (WORX)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7677167d504b288a23f3248ae0025b8f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Late last month, WORX stock came on the radar of traders active online as apossible short-squeeze play. In fact, as seen from its performance so far in April, the heavily shorted microcap stock may have already experienced a brief squeeze. Between Aug. 2 and Aug. 6, shares in the healthcare company went from around $2.25 per share to as much as $5 per share.</p>\n<p>Since then, the frenzy has eased. SCWorx has given up some of its squeeze gains, and now changes hands for around $2.85 per share. So has its short-squeeze angle fully played out, or does it have a shot of going parabolic once more? Talk about it on Reddit’s<i>r/Shortsqueeze</i>subreddit has cooled. This may mean the army of traders targeting short-squeeze stocks set their sights elsewhere.</p>\n<p>Also, the hype surrounding its Covid-19 catalyst may have been overblown. SCWorxfailed to generate meaningful revenuefrom the sale of testing kits and personal protective equipment (PPE). The company, its officers, and directors are also facing a lawsuit. Why? Due to allegations the company made back in April 2020 relating to a supplier deal were misleading and inaccurate.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>7 Dividend Stocks to Avoid Until They Start to Shape Up Again</li>\n</ul>\n<p>On the other hand, given its high short interest, and its low liquidity despite a major market (<b>Nasdaq</b>&nbsp;exchange) listing?

But does XELA stock still have a shot of getting squeezed “to the moon” a second time? It’s possible, but will likely hinge on the company’s turnaround efforts playing out with minimal hiccups.</p>\n<p>The business process automation provider is trying to pivot from its legacy business model, which islow-margin and labor intensive, to one that’s more like that of a software-as-a-service provider. With new offerings like itse-signature platform DrySign, it may be on its way to achieving this goal.</p>\n<p>Sure, the idea that this company will soon become more like<b>Adobe</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>ADBE</u></b>) or<b>Docusign</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>DOCU</u></b>) may be overstating things a bit. But as seen from its latest quarterly results, Exela has made progressimproving its margins, and lowering its net debt.

As seen in last month, names touted on Reddit’sr/WallStreetBetsas names ripe for a squeeze sold off considerably. This left investors who got in too late holding the bag with substantial losses.\nThe past few weeks may have been tough for traders employing this approach. The overall trend may be on the wane. But that’s not to say several of the most heavily shorted stocks don’t have room to pop. How so? Right now, there are scores of names that have been beaten down by investors overreacting to negative developments.\nShort-sellers have fanned the flames by fading these stocks as they headed lower. Yet looking at their respective details, it’s clear the factors that sent these stocks lower in the first place have been blown out of proportion. There is high possibility of these companies surprising investors by demonstrating their financial situation isn’t so dire They could leave their respective crowded short sides scrambling to cover positions.\nSo, which names could possibly see a tremendous pop from a squeeze? Any of these seven short-squeeze stocks, each with catalysts that could shift sentiment from negative back to positive, may do just that:\n\nGeo Group(NYSE:GEO)\nOntrak (NASDAQ:OTRK)\nPubMatic(NASDAQ:PUBM)\nSupport.com(NASDAQ:SPRT)\nWorkhorse(NASDAQ:WKHS)\nSCWorx(NASDAQ:WORX)\nExela Technologies(NASDAQ:XELA)\n\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: Geo Group (GEO)Source: JosephRouse / Shutterstock.com\nAfter getting hammered byPresident Joe Biden’s executive orderthat puts an end to privately-run federal prisons, Geo Group was squeezed back to near its pre-executive order prices thanks to the short squeeze frenzy that played out in late May and early June. Is another squeeze possible?\nYes, considering the factors at play. The so-called smart money is still betting against it, as36.4% of its outstanding float remains sold shortMore improvements to the company’s prospects could help GEO stock continue to make its way out of single-digits, and toward levels it traded for just a few years back ($15 to $20 per share).\nSure, it still sounds bad that the current administration has pushed for this company, and its peer,CoreCivic(NYSE:CXW), to lose a market (Federal Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals Service contracts) that make up a fair amount of their operations. Yet, this development does not impact state and local prison contracts, or contracts with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.\nOversold to a point where it trades at a dirt cheap forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio (4.2x), GEO stock could have ample room to soar, once the longs realize Biden’s order won’t put private prison companies out of business, and short-sellers quickly move to unwind their heavy short positions.\nOntrak (OTRK)Source: Shutterstock\nSix months ago, healthcare analytics play OTRK stock blew up, falling from over $90 per share, to less than $25 per share. What caused this, and why has it so far failed to recover, even partially?\nAsInvestorPlace’sTezcan Gecgil broke it down July 12,the loss of one of its major customers,CVS Health(NYSE:CVS) unitAetna, caused its massive price decline. The short side continues to bet against it. This may explain why it’s remained stuck near the $25 per share price levels.\nRecent troubles, and heavy shorting of it aside, there may be a big opportunity here for those willing to take the long side of this trade. Ontrak may have lost a large amount of its sales when Aetna ended the relationship. But as seen from its revenue estimates for 2022 (projecting 37.25% growth), any additional trouble for the top line could be short lived. Ontrak appears well positioned to more than make up for the loss of Aetna, with scores of other potential clients.\nIt may not have room to zoom back to its pre-crash prices above $90 per share. Yet, further news that confirms it’s still a fast-growing company could enable it to see another big boost. Consider this one of the short-squeeze stocks to keep on your radar.\nWEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: PubMatic (PUBM)Source: Tada Images / Shutterstock.com\nBack in June, I called PUBM stock, a play in the programmatic (digital) advertising space, one of thebest Reddit stocks to  throw $100 into. The reason? The potential for this heavily shorted stock to go on the kind of epic squeezeClover Health(NASDAQ:CLOV) went in at that time.\nUnfortunately, this did not play out. After going from less than $30 per share to prices above $42.50 per share, it gave up its gains. Now at around $26 per share, it’s back to square one. Yet, as short-interest in this stock remains high (30% of float), could there be room for it to get squeezed one more time?\nIt depends. It may have high short-interest. But that’s only one part of the equation. For a squeeze to happen, it needs to gin up enthusiasm about retail investors on the long side. However, given retail trader interest in it has gone up and down several times this year (as seen on the r/WSB tracker), it may not be something you want to rule out.\nA return to its all-time high (nearly $77 per share) may be a stretch goal, to say the least. But given even a partial rebound would mean a big percentage gain on your investment, PUBM stock remains very appealing as a short squeeze play.\nSupport.com (SPRT)Source: Mark Agnor / Shutterstock.com\nSupport.com stock has made a stunning recovery in recent weeks. Largely, due the price ofBitcoin(CCC:BTC-USD) making a comeback. Don’t let this company’s name confuse you:once its reverse merger deal closes, the company will become a crypto mining play namedGreenidge Generation.\nNot only that, it may end up being one of the better crypto mining plays out there. With none of the red flags that are holding downSOS Ltd.(NYSE:SOS), and with its shares priced in a wayfavorable to existing holders of SPRT stock, those on the long side may have a lesser chance of getting burned than what the shorts believe today.\nInstead, the short side could be the ones experiencing further losses, as Support.com completes its crypto merger deal, and continues to rise to prices firmly in the double-digits. AsInvestorPlace’s Christopher MacDonald wrote Aug. 14, the merger vote(scheduled for Sept. 10)is less than a month away.\nWith something that could send it soaring (and the shorts scrambling) in a matter of weeks, now may be the time to snap up SPRT stock. Add in the possibility of the BTC continuing to increase in value, and this stock may soon have two factors helping it move higher.\nWEALTHY 26-YEAR-OLD INVESTING GURU: “I’M BETTING $100,000 ON BEHALF OF ALL AMERICANS”\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: Workhorse (WKHS)Source: Photo from WorkHorse.com\nConsidering that itlost outin its highlypublicized bid to win the U.S. Postal Service vehicle contract, it makes sense why the shorts continue to bet so heavily against Workhorse stock. As of July 30,33.5% of its outstanding floatwere still sold short.\nEven after cratering following the bid loss, shares still trade at a valuation out of sync with its underlying assets. Yet there are many ways in this situation where the shorts could get squeezed, and those long WKHS stock could see massive gains. How?\nFirst, if it prevails in itsbid protest. The company is fighting the Postal Service decision to go withOshkosh’s(NYSE:OSK) candidate. Admittedly, its chances of getting another shot at the contract via this route may be slim. Mostly, because the independent government agency was given authority by the U.S. Congress tooperate outside typical federal procurement rules.\nFortunately, there are other paths for shares to pop on a squeeze. For example, if itmakes more progress with its HorseFly drone technology. Or, if the continued push to go green results in a big-ticket order from the private sector. Given it has little in the form of assets or a profitable operating business to fall back on, this is still one of the riskier short-squeeze stocks. But it may not take much in the form of positive news to send it popping once again.\nSCWorx (WORX)Source: Shutterstock\nLate last month, WORX stock came on the radar of traders active online as apossible short-squeeze play. In fact, as seen from its performance so far in April, the heavily shorted microcap stock may have already experienced a brief squeeze. Between Aug. 2 and Aug. 6, shares in the healthcare company went from around $2.25 per share to as much as $5 per share.\nSince then, the frenzy has eased. SCWorx has given up some of its squeeze gains, and now changes hands for around $2.85 per share. So has its short-squeeze angle fully played out, or does it have a shot of going parabolic once more? Talk about it on Reddit’sr/Shortsqueezesubreddit has cooled. This may mean the army of traders targeting short-squeeze stocks set their sights elsewhere.\nAlso, the hype surrounding its Covid-19 catalyst may have been overblown. SCWorxfailed to generate meaningful revenuefrom the sale of testing kits and personal protective equipment (PPE). The company, its officers, and directors are also facing a lawsuit. Why? Due to allegations the company made back in April 2020 relating to a supplier deal were misleading and inaccurate.\n\n7 Dividend Stocks to Avoid Until They Start to Shape Up Again\n\nOn the other hand, given its high short interest, and its low liquidity despite a major market (Nasdaq exchange) listing? Renewed hype about it online may be enough to send it on another wild ride to higher prices.\nShort-Squeeze Stocks: Exela Technologies (XELA)Source: Shutterstock\nIt’s pulled back since its initial short squeeze last month. But does XELA stock still have a shot of getting squeezed “to the moon” a second time? It’s possible, but will likely hinge on the company’s turnaround efforts playing out with minimal hiccups.\nThe business process automation provider is trying to pivot from its legacy business model, which islow-margin and labor intensive, to one that’s more like that of a software-as-a-service provider. With new offerings like itse-signature platform DrySign, it may be on its way to achieving this goal.\nSure, the idea that this company will soon become more likeAdobe(NASDAQ:ADBE) orDocusign(NASDAQ:DOCU) may be overstating things a bit. But as seen from its latest quarterly results, Exela has made progressimproving its margins, and lowering its net debt. It now projects 2021 revenues of between $1.25 billion and $1.39 billion, and adjusted EBITDA between $200 million and $236.3 million (assuming it hits the top end of its internal estimates).\nIf it can meet or beat expectations? Thanks to its highly levered balance sheet, the underlying value of each share of XELA stock may have room to move substantially higher. As hype surrounding it continues to taper off, this may be one of the top short-squeeze stocks to buy today.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GEO":0.9,"OTRK":0.9,"PUBM":0.9,"SPRT":0.9,"WKHS":0.9,"WORX":0.9,"XELA":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1242,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":832934157,"gmtCreate":1629557169679,"gmtModify":1633684056056,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Big","listText":"Big","text":"Big","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/832934157","repostId":"2161149745","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1502,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":832287248,"gmtCreate":1629640108184,"gmtModify":1633683629815,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm...","listText":"Hmm...","text":"Hmm...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/832287248","repostId":"2161374148","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1303,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":801943798,"gmtCreate":1627480889014,"gmtModify":1633764600710,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cause

twist with","content":"<p>The feud between&nbsp;<b>Walt Disney Co</b>&nbsp;and “Black Widow” star&nbsp;<b>Scarlett Johansson</b>&nbsp;has taken a new twist with the studio reportedly canceling planned projects it previously announced with the two-time Oscar-nominated actress.</p>\n<p><b>What Happened:</b>According to a report on the entertainment siteGiantFreakinRobot.combased on information from “one of our trusted and proven inside sources,” Disney has dropped the “Tower of Terror” project that Johansson was scheduled to star in and produce through her&nbsp;<b>These Pictures</b>&nbsp;company.</p>\n<p>“Tower of Terror” is based on the popular Disney theme park ride.Colliderfirst reported the project had the greenlight in June, with “Toy Story 4” director&nbsp;<b>Josh Cooley</b>&nbsp;at work on a screenplay. The ride inspired a 1997 made-for-television Disney film with&nbsp;<b>Steve Guttenberg</b>and the studio has trying to develop a theatrical feature since 2015.</p>\n<p><b>What Else Happened:</b>Besides giving “Tower of Terror” the kibosh, the studio is also closing the door on any potential future projects with Johansson, whosued Disneyover breach of contract in connection with having her “Black Widow” salary linked to the film’s theatrical release. The studio gave the film a simultaneous theatrical and streaming release, which Johansson said violated her contract and ensured she would be receiving less money for her performance.</p>\n<p>Johansson’s only other 2021 film role will be a voice performance in the animated film “Sing 2” from&nbsp;<b>Comcast Corporation’s</b>&nbsp;Universal Pictures, which is scheduled for a December release.

The ride inspired a 1997 made-for-television Disney film with Steve Guttenbergand the studio has trying to develop a theatrical feature since 2015.\nWhat Else Happened:Besides giving “Tower of Terror” the kibosh, the studio is also closing the door on any potential future projects with Johansson, whosued Disneyover breach of contract in connection with having her “Black Widow” salary linked to the film’s theatrical release. The studio gave the film a simultaneous theatrical and streaming release, which Johansson said violated her contract and ensured she would be receiving less money for her performance.\nJohansson’s only other 2021 film role will be a voice performance in the animated film “Sing 2” from Comcast Corporation’s Universal Pictures, which is scheduled for a December release. She is in pre-production as star and producer on the science-fiction drama “Bride,” which will be released by A24 and Apple Inc. .\nIn early 2020, Johansson and Chris Evans were cited in multiple entertainment media sources as being in talks to star in a remake of the musical “Little Shop of Horrors” for the AT&T subsidiary Warner Bros. However, Evans told an interviewer in March the project has been put on indefinite hold because the projected film budget became too large.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"DIS":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":290,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":891163264,"gmtCreate":1628350240258,"gmtModify":1633751510980,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/891163264","repostId":"2157492839","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":311,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":802904528,"gmtCreate":1627703820864,"gmtModify":1633756937380,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/802904528","repostId":"2155001152","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":278,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835403778,"gmtCreate":1629729614294,"gmtModify":1633682864426,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/835403778","repostId":"1105547841","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105547841","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1629726022,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1105547841?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-23 21:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NVIDIA shares rose nearly 3% to a new high","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105547841","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"NVIDIA shares rose nearly 3% to a new high in Monday morning trading.","content":"<p>NVIDIA shares rose nearly 3% to a new high&nbsp;in Monday morning trading.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8075cefb2210baeb244ede722b51d9bc\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Management sees momentum carrying into the third quarter, the analyst notes.</p>\n<p>“Given investments in new categories and international markets we believe the level of incremental investment represents the greatest risk to our forecast,” McTernan said.</p>\n<p><b>DASH Price Action: </b>DoorDash shares rose 3.5% to $194.79&nbsp;on Friday.</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>Why 6 DoorDash Analysts Are Raising Price Targets After Q2 Earnings</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\">\nWhy 6 DoorDash Analysts Are Raising Price Targets After Q2 Earnings\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Benzinga </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-08-15 09:56</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Analysts share their reactions and new price targets on shares of <b>DoorDash Inc</b> (NYSE:DASH), which reported second-quarter earnings Thursday after market close.</p>\n<p><b>The DoorDash Analysts: </b>Barclays analyst Ross Sandler had&nbsp;an Equal Weight rating and raised&nbsp;the price target from $160 to $183.</p>\n<p>JMP Securities analyst Ronald V.

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”</p>\n<p><b>But ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.</b></p>\n<p><b>A Man In Search Of Himself:</b>&nbsp;Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.</p>\n<p>The Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He&nbsp;attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.</p>\n<p>Ebbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,<b>Linda Pigott,</b>after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.</p>\n<p>But Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.</p>\n<p>Ebbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric.&nbsp;He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.</p>\n<p><b>Calling Out Around The World:</b>Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup of<b>AT&amp;T Inc.'s</b>&nbsp;T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.</p>\n<p>In 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.</p>\n<p>Ebbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with&nbsp;<b>Long Distance Discount Services,</b>&nbsp;which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.</p>\n<p><b>Carl J. Aycock,</b>a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.</p>\n<p>“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.</p>\n<p>Maybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.</p>\n<p>Within 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in&nbsp;sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.</p>\n<p>Many of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of&nbsp;<b>Advanced Telecommunications Corporation</b>&nbsp;in 1992.</p>\n<p>The unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&amp;T and&nbsp;<b>Sprint Corporation,</b>both considerably larger players in this field.</p>\n<p>The one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to&nbsp;<b>Kristie Webb.</b></p>\n<p>In February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for&nbsp;<b>CompuServe</b>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<b>H&amp;R Block Inc</b>.</p>\n<p>This transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition to<b>America Online,</b>while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.</p>\n<p>In September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with&nbsp;<b>MCI Communications,</b>which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit —&nbsp;except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.</p>\n<p><b>A Little Out Of Touch:</b>One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.</p>\n<p>At the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.</p>\n<p>“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”</p>\n<p>But as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.</p>\n<p>And for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”</p>\n<p>While Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.</p>\n<p><b>In retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw</b>, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.</p>\n<p><b>Detour Off The Cliff:</b>The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom —&nbsp;which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country —&nbsp;announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier. Within nine months of this announcement, the merger was canceled in the face of pressure from U.S. and European regulators who feared a telecom monopoly would be born from this union. MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.</p>\n<p>With the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.</p>\n<p>Worldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a&nbsp;senior manager ordering&nbsp;a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.</p>\n<p>The company’s chief technical officer,<b>Fred Briggs,</b>then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project —&nbsp;and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.</p>\n<p>A WorldCom budget analyst named&nbsp;<b>Kim Amigh</b>in the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh —&nbsp;three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.</p>\n<p>But Vice President of Internal Audit&nbsp;<b>Cynthia Cooper</b>&nbsp;learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 —&nbsp;except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.</p>\n<p>Cooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy. Most executives said it was a “prepaid capacity,” a meaningless term which they couldn’t define when pressed by Cooper.</p>\n<p>And Cooper was not alone in her suspicions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could not fathom how WorldCom continued to claim robust profits during the dot-com period while its competitors were operating at a loss, and it sent forth a “Request for Information” to learn the secret of its success.</p>\n<p>Adding to this chaos were Ebbers’ personal financial woes, which became exacerbated during to dot-com crisis by margin calls on his WorldCom shares, which were tanking as the economy plummeted into a recession.</p>\n<p>To alleviate his monetary pain, Ebbers borrowed $50 million from WorldCom in September 2000&nbsp;— and then borrowed again&nbsp;and again. By April 2002, Ebbers was $400 million in debt to WorldCom and the board of directors demanded his resignation, which he provided.</p>\n<p>In June 2002, WorldCom acknowledged its earnings reports contained $3.9 billion in accounting misstatements, with the figure&nbsp;later adjusted to $11 billion. In July 2002, the company declared bankruptcy and was delisted from public trading. Also during that month, Ebbers was called before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services to explain what happened. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment.</p>\n<p><b>Road’s End:</b>The efforts to bring Ebbers to trial got off to a weird start when the State of Oklahoma jumped the gun with a 15-count indictment, only to drop its charges in favor of federal prosecution.</p>\n<p>Ebbers was indicted in May 2004 on seven counts of filing false statements with securities regulators plus one count each of conspiracy and securities fraud. Ebbers agreed to testify on his behalf, which many observers later considered to be a major mistake because he came across as evasive and unconvincing when insisting WorldCom’s downfall was solely the fault of his subordinates and that he was ignorant about how his company worked.</p>\n<p>“I know what I don’t know,” Ebbers said during his trial. “To this day, I don’t know technology, and I don’t know finance or accounting.”</p>\n<p>Ebbers was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to 25 years in prison, the longest sentence ever handed down in U.S. history for a financial fraud case against a corporate executive.</p>\n<p>He remained free on bail while fighting to overturn the verdict, but the conviction was upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in July 2006. Two months later, he drove himself in his luxury Mercedes-Benz to a low-security Louisiana prison to begin his sentence. Two years later, his wife Kristie successfully filed for divorce.</p>\n<p>After 13 years behind bars, Ebbers was granted a compassionate release on Dec. 21, 2019, due to a deteriorating state of health that included macular degeneration that left him legally blind, anemia, a weakened heart condition and the beginnings of dementia. He returned to his home in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and passed away on Feb. 2, 2020.</p>\n<p>In defining his rise to the top, Ebbers harkened back to his basketball days by insisting, “The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.” But in explaining his fall from grace, Ebbers forgot that the core of coaching is accepting responsibility for the team’s performance and he blamed his “best players” for not being able to “play together” while absolving himself from their errors.</p>\n<p>Said Ebbers when confronted with his ultimate failure as the corporate equivalent of a coach: “I didn't have anything to apologize for.”</p>\n<p></p>","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”\nBut ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.\nA Man In Search Of Himself: Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.\nThe Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.\nEbbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,Linda Pigott,after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.\nBut Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.\nEbbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric. He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.\nCalling Out Around The World:Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup ofAT&T Inc.'s T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.\nIn 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.\nEbbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with Long Distance Discount Services, which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.\nCarl J. Aycock,a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.\n“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.\nMaybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.\nWithin 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.\nMany of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of Advanced Telecommunications Corporation in 1992.\nThe unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&T and Sprint Corporation,both considerably larger players in this field.\nThe one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to Kristie Webb.\nIn February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for CompuServe from H&R Block Inc.\nThis transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition toAmerica Online,while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.\nIn September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with MCI Communications,which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit — except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.\nA Little Out Of Touch:One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.\nAt the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.\n“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”\nBut as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.\nAnd for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”\nWhile Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.\nIn retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.\nDetour Off The Cliff:The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom — which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country — announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier. Within nine months of this announcement, the merger was canceled in the face of pressure from U.S. and European regulators who feared a telecom monopoly would be born from this union. MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.\nWith the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.\nWorldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a senior manager ordering a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.\nThe company’s chief technical officer,Fred Briggs,then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project — and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.\nA WorldCom budget analyst named Kim Amighin the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh — three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.\nBut Vice President of Internal Audit Cynthia Cooper learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 — except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.\nCooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy. Most executives said it was a “prepaid capacity,” a meaningless term which they couldn’t define when pressed by Cooper.\nAnd Cooper was not alone in her suspicions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could not fathom how WorldCom continued to claim robust profits during the dot-com period while its competitors were operating at a loss, and it sent forth a “Request for Information” to learn the secret of its success.\nAdding to this chaos were Ebbers’ personal financial woes, which became exacerbated during to dot-com crisis by margin calls on his WorldCom shares, which were tanking as the economy plummeted into a recession.\nTo alleviate his monetary pain, Ebbers borrowed $50 million from WorldCom in September 2000 — and then borrowed again and again. By April 2002, Ebbers was $400 million in debt to WorldCom and the board of directors demanded his resignation, which he provided.\nIn June 2002, WorldCom acknowledged its earnings reports contained $3.9 billion in accounting misstatements, with the figure later adjusted to $11 billion. In July 2002, the company declared bankruptcy and was delisted from public trading. Also during that month, Ebbers was called before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services to explain what happened. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment.\nRoad’s End:The efforts to bring Ebbers to trial got off to a weird start when the State of Oklahoma jumped the gun with a 15-count indictment, only to drop its charges in favor of federal prosecution.\nEbbers was indicted in May 2004 on seven counts of filing false statements with securities regulators plus one count each of conspiracy and securities fraud. Ebbers agreed to testify on his behalf, which many observers later considered to be a major mistake because he came across as evasive and unconvincing when insisting WorldCom’s downfall was solely the fault of his subordinates and that he was ignorant about how his company worked.\n“I know what I don’t know,” Ebbers said during his trial. “To this day, I don’t know technology, and I don’t know finance or accounting.”\nEbbers was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to 25 years in prison, the longest sentence ever handed down in U.S. history for a financial fraud case against a corporate executive.\nHe remained free on bail while fighting to overturn the verdict, but the conviction was upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in July 2006. Two months later, he drove himself in his luxury Mercedes-Benz to a low-security Louisiana prison to begin his sentence. Two years later, his wife Kristie successfully filed for divorce.\nAfter 13 years behind bars, Ebbers was granted a compassionate release on Dec. 21, 2019, due to a deteriorating state of health that included macular degeneration that left him legally blind, anemia, a weakened heart condition and the beginnings of dementia. He returned to his home in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and passed away on Feb. 2, 2020.\nIn defining his rise to the top, Ebbers harkened back to his basketball days by insisting, “The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.” But in explaining his fall from grace, Ebbers forgot that the core of coaching is accepting responsibility for the team’s performance and he blamed his “best players” for not being able to “play together” while absolving himself from their errors.\nSaid Ebbers when confronted with his ultimate failure as the corporate equivalent of a coach: “I didn't have anything to apologize for.”","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"HRB":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":951,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":892013918,"gmtCreate":1628610324434,"gmtModify":1633745728916,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"✈️&nbsp;","listText":"✈️&nbsp;","text":"✈️","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/892013918","repostId":"2158772124","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":347,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":813766103,"gmtCreate":1630249640302,"gmtModify":1704957451145,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/813766103","repostId":"1129129956","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129129956","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1630201285,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129129956?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-29 09:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"This Unloved Tech Stock Could Make You Rich One Day","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129129956","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The iBuying business is a race to grow larger, and Opendoor is winning.The company is growing at a rate that is two years ahead of what management projected just a year earlier.The market is bearish on virtually all SPACs, making Opendoor a bargain that could eventually bring huge returns.Real estate iBuying company Opendoor Technologieshas been executing at a high level in the three quarters since coming public via a special purpose acquisition company  merger.

In a race to disrupt residential real estate, one of the largest markets in the world, Opendoor's long-term potential could bring big returns for patient investors.</p>\n<p>Despite the upside, the market hasn't yet appreciated Opendoor's accomplishments; the stock is down more than 50% from its highs. There are three important clues that Opendoor could be a compelling investment idea for bold investors.</p>\n<h3>1. Opendoor is winning the iBuying battle</h3>\n<p>The traditional home-buying process in the United States is slow and handled by multiple parties, including agents, lawyers, inspectors, and bankers. This creates a lot of back and forth paperwork and drags the process out to more than 30 days, on average.</p>\n<p>Opendoor pioneered the concept of \"iBuying,\" where the buying and selling of a house are digitized, and a company like Opendoor works directly with sellers to provide them with a cash offer and a digital closing process. The company then resells the house on the market. The iBuying process cuts out agents and some of the fees associated with traditional closings, such as agent commissions. Opendoor then resells the house on the market and charges a service fee of up to 5% on the transaction.</p>\n<p>After seeing Opendoor steadily grow with its iBuying concept, competitors have also begun to offer iBuying services, including&nbsp;<b>Zillow Group</b>&nbsp;and Offerpad. Because of how capital intensive the business is (a lot of money is needed to buy and sell thousands of houses) and how price competitive the housing market is, these companies are racing to get as big as possible. As the companies buy and sell more homes, they have the ability to become more profitable by leveraging outsourced contractors to save money, and its pricing algorithm improves as it sees more transactions.</p>\n<p>According to iBuyerStats, a website dedicated to tracking the competitors found in iBuying, Opendoor has consistently had the most housing inventory available for sale. It currently has roughly 3,300 houses for sale, 53% more than Zillow and more than four times as many as Offerpad.</p>\n<h3>2. Revenue growth is ahead of schedule</h3>\n<p>When companies go public viaSPACmerger, they lay out a public presentation of their business, often including long-term growth projections. Opendoor laid out its pre-merger investor presentation about a year ago, in September 2020.</p>\n<p>Fast forward to the company's recent 2021 Q2 earnings call. CEO and founder Eric Wu said on the earnings call, \"... based on our current progress, our second half revenue run rate is on track to exceed our 2023 target, a full two years ahead of plan.\"</p>\n<p>In other words, if Opendoor were to operate for 12 months at the level the business currently is, it would surpass the $9.8 billion in revenue it projected for 2023. This is an underlooked point because if Opendoor is already two years ahead of its original growth curve, where will it be by 2023? Sure, a dip in the housing market or other events could disrupt the company's speed of growth, but Opendoor is showing the world that the business is operating at a high level.</p>\n<h3>3. SPACs are out of favor with the market... opportunity?</h3>\n<p>Investors have overlooked this strong performance, focusing instead on the fact that Opendoor joined the public market via SPAC merger. It has hardly mattered what operating results or earnings have looked like for former SPACs; the stock market has been selling off virtually all SPAC-based stocks for several months now.</p>\n<p>Investors have been spooked by a handful of \"bad apple\" companies turning up fraudulent, and other companies have wildly missed on the projections they made before going public. These instances have burned those involved, and investors have taken a much more cautious attitude toward SPACs as a whole.</p>\n<p>But if companies like Opendoor keep blowing away estimates, the market is likely to come around eventually. When it does, the stock price could move aggressively. If we take Eric Wu's comments about revenue and assume that Opendoor does sales of $10 billion in 2022 (in other words, Opendoor stops growing and maintains its current pace over the following year), the stock currently trades at aprice-to-sales(P/S) ratio of just 1.0. That's a bargain-bin valuation.</p>\n<p>Competitor Zillow Group trades at a P/S ratio of more than 3, reflecting Opendoor's discount as a former SPAC.</p>\n<h3>Here's the bottom line</h3>\n<p>Real estate is a huge market, and it's a complicated industry because of the clash between traditional agents and the \"new kids\" on the block trying to bring technology into homebuying. It's too early to say that Opendoor will become the \"<b>Amazon</b>\" of home buying, but what seems certain is that the company is&nbsp;poised to be a big player&nbsp;in real estate's future if it keeps performing like this.</p>\n<p></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>This Unloved Tech Stock Could Make You Rich One Day</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\">\nThis Unloved Tech Stock Could Make You Rich One Day\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-29 09:41 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nThe iBuying business is a race to grow larger, and Opendoor is winning.\nThe company is growing at a rate that is two years ahead of what management projected just a year earlier.\nThe ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"OPEN":"Opendoor Technologies Inc"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/28/this-unloved-tech-stock-may-make-you-rich-one-day/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1129129956","content_text":"Key Points\n\nThe iBuying business is a race to grow larger, and Opendoor is winning.\nThe company is growing at a rate that is two years ahead of what management projected just a year earlier.\nThe market is bearish on virtually all SPACs, making Opendoor a bargain that could eventually bring huge returns.\n\n\nReal estate iBuying company Opendoor Technologies(NASDAQ:OPEN)has been executing at a high level in the three quarters since coming public via a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger.

Opendoor then resells the house on the market and charges a service fee of up to 5% on the transaction.\nAfter seeing Opendoor steadily grow with its iBuying concept, competitors have also begun to offer iBuying services, including Zillow Group and Offerpad. Because of how capital intensive the business is (a lot of money is needed to buy and sell thousands of houses) and how price competitive the housing market is, these companies are racing to get as big as possible. As the companies buy and sell more homes, they have the ability to become more profitable by leveraging outsourced contractors to save money, and its pricing algorithm improves as it sees more transactions.\nAccording to iBuyerStats, a website dedicated to tracking the competitors found in iBuying, Opendoor has consistently had the most housing inventory available for sale. It currently has roughly 3,300 houses for sale, 53% more than Zillow and more than four times as many as Offerpad.\n2. Revenue growth is ahead of schedule\nWhen companies go public viaSPACmerger, they lay out a public presentation of their business, often including long-term growth projections. Opendoor laid out its pre-merger investor presentation about a year ago, in September 2020.\nFast forward to the company's recent 2021 Q2 earnings call. CEO and founder Eric Wu said on the earnings call, \"... based on our current progress, our second half revenue run rate is on track to exceed our 2023 target, a full two years ahead of plan.\"\nIn other words, if Opendoor were to operate for 12 months at the level the business currently is, it would surpass the $9.8 billion in revenue it projected for 2023. This is an underlooked point because if Opendoor is already two years ahead of its original growth curve, where will it be by 2023? Sure, a dip in the housing market or other events could disrupt the company's speed of growth, but Opendoor is showing the world that the business is operating at a high level.\n3. SPACs are out of favor with the market... opportunity?\nInvestors have overlooked this strong performance, focusing instead on the fact that Opendoor joined the public market via SPAC merger. It has hardly mattered what operating results or earnings have looked like for former SPACs; the stock market has been selling off virtually all SPAC-based stocks for several months now.\nInvestors have been spooked by a handful of \"bad apple\" companies turning up fraudulent, and other companies have wildly missed on the projections they made before going public. These instances have burned those involved, and investors have taken a much more cautious attitude toward SPACs as a whole.\nBut if companies like Opendoor keep blowing away estimates, the market is likely to come around eventually. When it does, the stock price could move aggressively. If we take Eric Wu's comments about revenue and assume that Opendoor does sales of $10 billion in 2022 (in other words, Opendoor stops growing and maintains its current pace over the following year), the stock currently trades at aprice-to-sales(P/S) ratio of just 1.0. That's a bargain-bin valuation.\nCompetitor Zillow Group trades at a P/S ratio of more than 3, reflecting Opendoor's discount as a former SPAC.\nHere's the bottom line\nReal estate is a huge market, and it's a complicated industry because of the clash between traditional agents and the \"new kids\" on the block trying to bring technology into homebuying. It's too early to say that Opendoor will become the \"Amazon\" of home buying, but what seems certain is that the company is poised to be a big player in real estate's future if it keeps performing like this.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"OPEN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1998,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":819553412,"gmtCreate":1630079229836,"gmtModify":1704955725968,"author":{"id":"4087297072458000","authorId":"4087297072458000","name":"Doublexx","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087297072458000","idStr":"4087297072458000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Green","listText":"Green","text":"Green","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/819553412","repostId":"1199074003","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1199074003","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1630077382,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199074003?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-27 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Crypto stocks surged in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199074003","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Crypto stocks surged in morning trading.Bit Digital,Marathon Digital,Riot Blockchain,SoS Ltd,Square,","content":"<p>Crypto stocks surged in morning trading.Bit Digital,Marathon Digital,Riot Blockchain,SoS Ltd,Square,Coinbase&nbsp;and&nbsp;Paypal&nbsp;climbed between 1% and 13%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67735af69f95f6a88ee67ae3737e58c0\" tg-width=\"364\" tg-height=\"715\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
