The two-pronged goal of the event was to show off its AI progress, and to recruit of new engineers.</p>\n<p>Plans went awry when Tesla-bot, a 5’8” nonfunctional humanoid robot appeared on stage.</p>\n<p>This is why investors should consider buying buy Tesla shares anyway.</p>\n<p>Let’s be clear. The AI day presentation was mind-blowing. Tesla engineers are aiming so high it is hard to put the scale of innovation in perspective. Lex Fridman, an acclaimed AI researcher working at MIT and often a Tesla critic characterized the event succinctly:</p>\n<p>“Tesla AI day presented the most amazing real-world AI and engineering effort I have ever seen in my life.”</p>\n<p>In the past, FridmancriticizedElon Musk, Tesla’s chief executive officer for downplaying the difficulty of the full self-driving problem. In Fridman’s view, the obstacles to FSD are so daunting he didn’t believe any firm could successfully navigate the landscape within the next 5-10 years.</p>\n<p>The Tesla AI day changed his mind. That is saying something.</p>\n<p>Musk and his team completely reimagined computer vision by thinking exponentially bigger. Then they built models to collect and label the data, and a new processor to make sense of it all.</p>\n<p>The idea of AI conjures up rooms full of computers deciphering data and making choices on the fly. In reality, Tesla still employs 1,000 engineers who manually label pedestrians and orange road cones. The latest software iteration is getting much better at auto-labeling. Musk said on Thursday that the neural network model is being completely retrained about every 2 weeks.</p>\n<p>Processing is certain to improve when Tesla’s Dojo computer is outfitted with the latest in-house chips designed specifically to optimize neural networks.

The two-pronged goal of the event was to show off its AI progress, and to recruit of new engineers.\nPlans went awry when Tesla-bot, a 5’8” nonfunctional humanoid robot appeared on stage.\nThis is why investors should consider buying buy Tesla shares anyway.\nLet’s be clear. The AI day presentation was mind-blowing. Tesla engineers are aiming so high it is hard to put the scale of innovation in perspective. Lex Fridman, an acclaimed AI researcher working at MIT and often a Tesla critic characterized the event succinctly:\n“Tesla AI day presented the most amazing real-world AI and engineering effort I have ever seen in my life.”\nIn the past, FridmancriticizedElon Musk, Tesla’s chief executive officer for downplaying the difficulty of the full self-driving problem. In Fridman’s view, the obstacles to FSD are so daunting he didn’t believe any firm could successfully navigate the landscape within the next 5-10 years.\nThe Tesla AI day changed his mind. That is saying something.\nMusk and his team completely reimagined computer vision by thinking exponentially bigger. Then they built models to collect and label the data, and a new processor to make sense of it all.\nThe idea of AI conjures up rooms full of computers deciphering data and making choices on the fly. In reality, Tesla still employs 1,000 engineers who manually label pedestrians and orange road cones. The latest software iteration is getting much better at auto-labeling. Musk said on Thursday that the neural network model is being completely retrained about every 2 weeks.\nProcessing is certain to improve when Tesla’s Dojo computer is outfitted with the latest in-house chips designed specifically to optimize neural networks. Engineers claim these breakthrough mega chips offer 4x the performance of the current processors yet they consume 1/5 the footprint.\nFridmanbelievesthe virtuous cycle of data collection, labeling, model retraining, and redeployment will give Tesla a real fighting chance to finally solve FSD. This is potentially a $1 trillion opportunity.\nUnfortunately, this monumental development is getting lost in the analysis of the Tesla bot.\nInvestors should focus.\nTesla is building a fully integrated AI powerhouse. Longer-term investors should consider buying any near-term weakness in its shares.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":389,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835484427,"gmtCreate":1629732157269,"gmtModify":1633682838680,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087948369688660","idStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good

The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 index booked their worst declines in a month on Aug. 18 after Fed minutes showed most officials backing a start of tapering this year.\nBut as JPMorgan's note points out, the Fed would still be supplying stimulus -- just at a reduced pace -- and the abundance of a cash already in the system will still keep growing.\n\"We continue to think a tapering announcement would come in December, though the risk of an announcement in November has increased,\" the strategists wrote. \"Realistically, the timing difference between November and December is $120bn/mo. more in asset purchases.\" Assuming the Fed finishes tapering next August, \"this still means that we could see anywhere from $850bn to $1tn of additional liquidity being injected in the financial system.\"\nThe strategists also weighed in on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's future, by reiterating JPMorgan's view that there's \"a significant chance\" he won't be renominated when his term ends in February 2022.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":303,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":839162883,"gmtCreate":1629127472342,"gmtModify":1633687179565,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy lower?","listText":"Buy lower?","text":"Buy lower?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/839162883","repostId":"2159634222","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":155,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":836618270,"gmtCreate":1629475064190,"gmtModify":1633684553480,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Rally","listText":"Rally","text":"Rally","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/836618270","repostId":"2160710461","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":337,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":820092846,"gmtCreate":1633321751768,"gmtModify":1633321751896,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"need some healthy food","listText":"need some healthy food","text":"need some healthy food","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/820092846","repostId":"2172996097","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2172996097","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1633317028,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2172996097?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-04 11:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"15 Fastest Growing Fast Food Chains","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2172996097","media":"Insider Monkey","summary":"In this article we are going to list the 15 fastest growing fast food chains. Click to skip ahead an","content":"<p>In this article we are going to list the <strong>15 fastest growing fast food chains</strong>. Click to skip ahead and jump to the <strong>5 fastest growing fast food chains</strong>.</p> \n<p>Fast food has been <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the most emerging industries in the past fifty years. In 2018, the industry was valued at $875 billion, up from $862 billion a year earlier. Even though the pandemic put a damper on the industry growth, it seems to be recovering nicely and is projected to reach more than $880 billion in 2021.</p> \n<p>Fast food restaurants, also known as quick-service restaurants, provide the service of mass-produced, readily-available food. This is in contrast with traditional dining, where food is usually made fresh and to-order, requiring a longer wait time at the expense of fresh meals. Fast food chains, as is evident by their name, focus on the speed at which a meal is delivered to the customer. However, this is not to say that they are forgoing other qualities of their products such as taste and quality.</p> \n<p>Historically, fast food was created for the average busy wage worker who needed a meal quicker than it would be available in a traditional restaurant setting. Thus, an alternative food service strategy was created, coined fast-food. Today fast food comes in many forms, but they all usually have one thing in common - speed.</p> \n<p>To achieve a fast delivery, the meals can be pre-cooked and are finished quickly once the order is placed. Other fast-food restaurant chains may not pre-cook entire meals, but use frozen or pre-prepared ingredients which may be quickly assembled at a customer’s order. This method is employed by some of the fastest growing fast food chains such as <strong>McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD)</strong> and <strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QSR\">Restaurant Brands International Inc</a> (NYSE:QSR)</strong> - owned Burger King.</p> \n<p>Even though as a major modern industry fast food hasn't been around that long (for around a century), the concept itself has been around since the Ancient Rome. The Romans were recorded to purchase their food from food vendors on the street. Street food was also a popular attraction in the Middle Ages where cooked meals were sold to travelers and the poor. Since the late 1800s, fast food has been around in Britain in the from of fish and chips shops. The hamburger, an icon in the world of fast food, was a creation originating in medieval Europe.</p> \n<p>However, fast food as we know it in the form of affordable drive-throughs and greasy paper bags was popularized in the United States in the 1950s. A White Castle outlet opened in 1921, is considered to be the first fast food restaurant in the US (and the world). White Castle has eventually grown into a chain with more than 370 locations across the US, but it was overshadowed greatly by other chains such as McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD) and KFC (owned by <strong>Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE:YUM</strong>)), both of which are still among the fastest growing fast food chains.</p> \n<p>Today fast food is an American staple, with more than 200 people in the US being served a hamburger every second every day. The number of outlets serving fast food has risen at a rapid rate, from around 75,000 locations in 1972 to more than 200,000 in 2018.</p> \n<p>However, fast food has also gained somewhat of a bad reputation for the health risks associated with its consumption, with diseases such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and even depression being associated with it. Many fast food products also tend to be high in saturated fat, sodium, sugar, and calories, all which contribute to obesity and a lower mortality. To combat these issues, many fast food chains have introduced vegan, low-fat, low-calorie alternatives in their menus, but the sales for these menu items have not been as high.</p> \n<p>Some of the fastest growing fast food chains usually follow a franchise model, but many also own certain locations. B<span>oth models operate with standardized ingredients and menus across most locations. Globalization in the past few decades has resulted in fast food chains being one of the most recognizable and employable businesses, with big names having thousands of outlets spread out in multiple countries around the world. So without further ado, let's take a look at the fastest growing fast food chains based on the number of locations opened in the last several years.&nbsp;</span></p> \n<h2><strong>15.

Since then the company has enjoyed rapid growth, opening locations all over Philippines as well as neighboring countries of South East Asia. The growth of the brand has made the founder, who was the son of poor Chinese immigrants, into a billionaire.

Click to skip ahead and jump to the 5 fastest growing fast food chains.\nFast food has been one of the most emerging industries in the past fifty years. In 2018, the industry was valued at $875 billion, up from $862 billion a year earlier. Even though the pandemic put a damper on the industry growth, it seems to be recovering nicely and is projected to reach more than $880 billion in 2021.\nFast food restaurants, also known as quick-service restaurants, provide the service of mass-produced, readily-available food. This is in contrast with traditional dining, where food is usually made fresh and to-order, requiring a longer wait time at the expense of fresh meals. Fast food chains, as is evident by their name, focus on the speed at which a meal is delivered to the customer. However, this is not to say that they are forgoing other qualities of their products such as taste and quality.\nHistorically, fast food was created for the average busy wage worker who needed a meal quicker than it would be available in a traditional restaurant setting. Thus, an alternative food service strategy was created, coined fast-food. Today fast food comes in many forms, but they all usually have one thing in common - speed.\nTo achieve a fast delivery, the meals can be pre-cooked and are finished quickly once the order is placed. Other fast-food restaurant chains may not pre-cook entire meals, but use frozen or pre-prepared ingredients which may be quickly assembled at a customer’s order. This method is employed by some of the fastest growing fast food chains such as McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD) and Restaurant Brands International Inc (NYSE:QSR) - owned Burger King.\nEven though as a major modern industry fast food hasn't been around that long (for around a century), the concept itself has been around since the Ancient Rome. The Romans were recorded to purchase their food from food vendors on the street. Street food was also a popular attraction in the Middle Ages where cooked meals were sold to travelers and the poor. Since the late 1800s, fast food has been around in Britain in the from of fish and chips shops. The hamburger, an icon in the world of fast food, was a creation originating in medieval Europe.\nHowever, fast food as we know it in the form of affordable drive-throughs and greasy paper bags was popularized in the United States in the 1950s. A White Castle outlet opened in 1921, is considered to be the first fast food restaurant in the US (and the world). White Castle has eventually grown into a chain with more than 370 locations across the US, but it was overshadowed greatly by other chains such as McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD) and KFC (owned by Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE:YUM)), both of which are still among the fastest growing fast food chains.\nToday fast food is an American staple, with more than 200 people in the US being served a hamburger every second every day. The number of outlets serving fast food has risen at a rapid rate, from around 75,000 locations in 1972 to more than 200,000 in 2018.\nHowever, fast food has also gained somewhat of a bad reputation for the health risks associated with its consumption, with diseases such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and even depression being associated with it. Many fast food products also tend to be high in saturated fat, sodium, sugar, and calories, all which contribute to obesity and a lower mortality. To combat these issues, many fast food chains have introduced vegan, low-fat, low-calorie alternatives in their menus, but the sales for these menu items have not been as high.\nSome of the fastest growing fast food chains usually follow a franchise model, but many also own certain locations. Both models operate with standardized ingredients and menus across most locations. Globalization in the past few decades has resulted in fast food chains being one of the most recognizable and employable businesses, with big names having thousands of outlets spread out in multiple countries around the world. So without further ado, let's take a look at the fastest growing fast food chains based on the number of locations opened in the last several years. \n15.

The company was founded in 1975 by Tony Tan Caktiong as an ice cream parlor in Cubao, Quezon City. Later, the parlor began selling fast food items as well, which eventually became more popular than the ice cream. This resulted in the family shifting its branding towards fast food, and in 1978 the first Jollibee outlet was born. Since then the company has enjoyed rapid growth, opening locations all over Philippines as well as neighboring countries of South East Asia. The growth of the brand has made the founder, who was the son of poor Chinese immigrants, into a billionaire. Jollibee is operated by Jollibee Food Corporation.\n\n9.

Meanwhile, the S&P 500 fell 0.1% and the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 0.8%.\nBig Tech stocks were hit hard, as seen by the tech-heavy Nasdaq. Over a quarter of the S&P 500’s total market capitalization is from technology companies, so when their shares decline, they usually bring the S&P 500 down with them, too.\nSnap shares slid 26.6% as its revenue for the third quarter was slightly below estimates. Snap said Apple‘s (AAPL) privacy changes damaged advertising sales. The company also warned that brands’ supply chain constraints—which limit the ability to meet sales goals—are prompting them to reduce ad spend. That hurt Facebook and Alphabet stocks, which fell 5.1% and 3%, respectively.\nThe stock market wasn’t having as rough a day as the major indexes would suggest. While tech stocks dropped, other sectors rose; about 63% of the S&P 500’s stocks were in the green, according to FactSet.\nEarnings season thus far has largely propelled stocks higher. The aggregate earnings per share result from S&P 500 companies—excluding financials—has beaten analyst estimates by about 10%, according to Credit Suisse. Just a few weeks ago, profits were beating by only about 4%.\n“A return to a focus on earnings would once again favor stock picking over buying Indexes,” writes Louis Navellier, founder of Navellier & Associates.\nAnother positive—certainly helping to lift economically-sensitive stocks—was strong economic data. The Markit Services Purchasing Managers Index showed a reading of 58.2 for October, beating estimates of 55.5. Any reading above 50 indicates that activity increased. The Markit Manufacturing PMI read 59.2, just below the expected 60.5.\nWhile the PMI results showed that companies are paying higher costs for materials, they’re also raising prices. Ultimately, “demand is clearly strong,” writes Andrew Hollenhorst, Citigroup economist.\nMarkets continue to monitor one key negative factor—ongoing inflation. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell implied at a virtual conference Friday that he is becoming slightly more concerned that high inflation is here to stay.\nHere are 5 stocks on the move Friday:\nIntel was down 11.7% after the chip maker missed sales expectations when it posted earnings late Thursday, putting down a decline in its PC business to broader component shortages.\nMattel rose 0.6% after reporting better-than-expected earnings.\nCleveland-Cliffs gained 12.7% after its earnings beat estimates and the company offered optimistic guidance on steel pricing.\nZoom Video Communications advanced 1% after getting upgraded to Overweight from Neutral at JPMorgan.\nBeyond Meat tumbled 11.8% after forecasting third-quarter sales of $106 million, compared with its prior forecast of $120 million to $140 million.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":407,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":891775297,"gmtCreate":1628437256419,"gmtModify":1633747146636,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"No

Even with the company splitting profits with BioNTech, Pfizer should conservatively make in the ballpark of $17 billion from BNT162b2 this year.</p>\n<p>Even more money could be on the way.

The company provided an update on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> especially promising therapy in its second-quarter conference call last week.</p>\n<p>Protease inhibitors are a class of antiviral drugs that have been effective in treating HIV and hepatitis C.

The company had good news to report from that study in its Q2 update.</p>\n<p>Chief scientific officer Mikael Dolsten said that in the phase 1 study, PF-07321332 exceeded the level predicted to inhibit coronavirus viral replication by more than fivefold. Dolsten also stated that the experimental protease inhibitor showed powerful antiviral activity in preclinical testing that could be effective against \"all currently known COVID-19 variants.\"</p>\n<p>So far, the experimental antiviral drug appears to have a good safety profile. Dolsten said that there haven't been any safety issues in giving doses of up to 500 milligrams twice per day over a 10-day period.</p>\n<p>Based on these encouraging results, Pfizer advanced the oral protease inhibitor into phase 2/3 testing in July. The company will evaluate PF-07321332 in five-day and 10-day treatments for individuals who have been in close contact with someone with COVID-19.</p>\n<h3>A big market opportunity</h3>\n<p>Pfizer estimates that the addressable market for its protease inhibitor could be in the hundreds of millions of patients. That doesn't seem farfetched considering the rapid spread of COVID-19 exposure due to the delta variant.</p>\n<p>The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has already granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to <b>Regeneron</b>'s (NASDAQ:REGN) antibody cocktail REGEN-COV as a treatment for hospitalized COVID-19 patients and for post-exposure prophylaxis. However, there are a few drawbacks to Regeneron's therapy.</p>\n<p>First, REGEN-COV is expensive -- more than $2,000 per dose. Second, it must be administered via infusion or subcutaneous injection. Third, the current U.S. EUA for post-exposure prophylaxis only applies to individuals who have been exposed to COVID-19 who have a high risk of developing COVID-19 and who haven't been fully vaccinated.</p>\n<p>Pfizer's PF-07321332 would be much more convenient than REGEN-COV since it's taken orally. Although the big drugmaker hasn't given any hints about what the pricing for the antiviral therapy might be should it win EUA or approval, a lower price tag could open up a wide market that might include lower-risk individuals who are exposed to COVID-19.</p>\n<h3>Coming soon?</h3>\n<p>There shouldn't be a long wait for Pfizer's next potential COVID-19 blockbuster. Assuming the phase 2/3 testing goes well, the company thinks that it will be able to file for U.S. EUA in the fourth quarter of this year.</p>\n<p>Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said in the company's Q2 call that he's given the green light to manufacture \"significant quantities\" of the oral protease inhibitor so that large volumes of doses will be available if EUA is granted. He added that Pfizer is absorbing the risk of making this investment because \"it is the right thing to do.\"</p>\n<p>PF-07321332 probably won't be as big a catalyst for the big pharma stock as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. However, Pfizer won't have to split the profits on the oral therapy as it does with BNT162b2. If the company's late-stage testing of the COVID-19 drug is successful, Pfizer seems very likely to have another blockbuster on its hands in 2022.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>This Could Be Pfizer's Next COVID Blockbuster -- and It Isn't a Vaccine</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 Could Be Pfizer's Next COVID Blockbuster -- and It Isn't a Vaccine\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-03 20:41 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/03/this-could-be-pfizers-next-covid-blockbuster-and-i/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In 2019 and 2020, Pfizer's (NYSE:PFE) top-selling product was pneumococcal vaccine Prevnar 13.

Assuming the phase 2/3 testing goes well, the company thinks that it will be able to file for U.S. EUA in the fourth quarter of this year.\nPfizer CEO Albert Bourla said in the company's Q2 call that he's given the green light to manufacture \"significant quantities\" of the oral protease inhibitor so that large volumes of doses will be available if EUA is granted. He added that Pfizer is absorbing the risk of making this investment because \"it is the right thing to do.\"\nPF-07321332 probably won't be as big a catalyst for the big pharma stock as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. However, Pfizer won't have to split the profits on the oral therapy as it does with BNT162b2. If the company's late-stage testing of the COVID-19 drug is successful, Pfizer seems very likely to have another blockbuster on its hands in 2022.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":261,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":802809563,"gmtCreate":1627743248352,"gmtModify":1633756694154,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"build&nbsp;","listText":"build&nbsp;","text":"build","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/802809563","repostId":"1186334150","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1186334150","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627713845,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1186334150?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-31 14:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Infrastructure Spending Is on Its Way.

Users of the company's commission-free trading platform have earned a reputation for engaging in short-term trading, risky options plays, and volatile meme stock candidates including <b>AMC Entertainment Holdings</b> and <b>GameStop</b>, but they are also heavily invested in some more traditional, blue-chip names.</p>\n<p>Retail investors have emerged as a powerful force in today's stock market, and some companies favored by Robinhood investors will likely go on to deliver fantastic performance. With that in mind, read on for a look at two popular stocks on the platform that could make you richer in August and beyond.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e077c67492fd018ea6e07625352ded57\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"388\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images</span></p>\n<h2>1. Amazon</h2>\n<p>Shares of <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN) have lost some ground after the company's second-quarter results arrived with revenue that fell short of the market's expectations and guidance for weaker-than-expected growth. While the company's sales performance and near-term guidance fell short of analyst estimates, long-term investors shouldn't be too concerned with these relatively small misses.</p>\n<p>The company's profit in the second quarter came in well ahead of the market's expectations, and the recent pullback in the stock presents an opportunity to build a position in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the world's best-run and most-influential companies.</p>\n<p>Amazon ranked as the ninth most-held stock among Robinhood investors at the beginning of August, and it's not hard to see why. The tech giant has built incredible category-leading businesses across multiple industries, and it's also able to leverage strengths between sectors to create synergies that make the overall company stronger.</p>\n<p>For example, Amazon's market-leading e-commerce business has helped it expand into the subscription-services market, and its subscription services also help keep users engaged in its online retail ecosystem. The company's dominant position in e-commerce also means that its platform is one of the most valuable online advertising hubs, and the company is rapidly building a powerful digital advertising business that should help power growth through the next decade and beyond.</p>\n<p>The company's Echo hardware and Alexa voice-based operating system also feed into the company's online retail and digital advertising operations. Amazon Web Services stands as a market leader in the cloud infrastructure space, and it provides a variety of computing and data analytics tools to other company projects in addition to serving up strong margins and sales growth in its own right.</p>\n<p>Amazon has been an innovative and forward-thinking company, and it's likely that it will continue to successfully expand into new categories that also strengthen its existing businesses. Few companies look better positioned for long-term success.</p>\n<h2>2. Palantir Technologies</h2>\n<p>More so than ever before, gathering and analyzing data is central to success for public and private institutions. <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR) specializes in big data analytics and is emerging as an early favorite for large public and private organizations. And its stock stands out as a top candidate for risk-tolerant investors looking to benefit from new evolutions in the Information Age.</p>\n<p>The next decade will see an explosion of new connected devices and communications services. The Internet of Things will bring a wide range of new tech hardware online, and sensor technology will expand the range of objects that generate data. Virtual machines communicating with one another online will further power the ongoing data boom, and this surge of new information will create a flood of valuable new information to sort through and analyze.</p>\n<p>Palantir's Foundry software platform helps manage data and predict outcomes with data analytics and artificial intelligence. Thus far, the company has demonstrated an impressive ability to deliver solutions that are ahead of the curve, and it's continued to provide users with consistent updates and upgrades that have boosted the value of its software. These initiatives are helping the company bring new customers on board and get existing customers to increase their spending through the platform.</p>\n<p>Palantir is already finding success with its land-and-expand business model, but it's important to keep in mind just how much room for expansion is still there. While data analytics has already played a big role in shaping the direction of the 21st century, this is still a young science and industry, and it will likely only become increasingly influential.

Users of the company's commission-free trading platform have earned a reputation for engaging in short-term trading, risky options plays, and volatile meme stock candidates including AMC Entertainment Holdings and GameStop, but they are also heavily invested in some more traditional, blue-chip names.\nRetail investors have emerged as a powerful force in today's stock market, and some companies favored by Robinhood investors will likely go on to deliver fantastic performance. With that in mind, read on for a look at two popular stocks on the platform that could make you richer in August and beyond.\nImage source: Getty Images\n1. Amazon\nShares of Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) have lost some ground after the company's second-quarter results arrived with revenue that fell short of the market's expectations and guidance for weaker-than-expected growth. While the company's sales performance and near-term guidance fell short of analyst estimates, long-term investors shouldn't be too concerned with these relatively small misses.\nThe company's profit in the second quarter came in well ahead of the market's expectations, and the recent pullback in the stock presents an opportunity to build a position in one of the world's best-run and most-influential companies.\nAmazon ranked as the ninth most-held stock among Robinhood investors at the beginning of August, and it's not hard to see why. The tech giant has built incredible category-leading businesses across multiple industries, and it's also able to leverage strengths between sectors to create synergies that make the overall company stronger.\nFor example, Amazon's market-leading e-commerce business has helped it expand into the subscription-services market, and its subscription services also help keep users engaged in its online retail ecosystem. The company's dominant position in e-commerce also means that its platform is one of the most valuable online advertising hubs, and the company is rapidly building a powerful digital advertising business that should help power growth through the next decade and beyond.\nThe company's Echo hardware and Alexa voice-based operating system also feed into the company's online retail and digital advertising operations. Amazon Web Services stands as a market leader in the cloud infrastructure space, and it provides a variety of computing and data analytics tools to other company projects in addition to serving up strong margins and sales growth in its own right.\nAmazon has been an innovative and forward-thinking company, and it's likely that it will continue to successfully expand into new categories that also strengthen its existing businesses. Few companies look better positioned for long-term success.\n2. Palantir Technologies\nMore so than ever before, gathering and analyzing data is central to success for public and private institutions. Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) specializes in big data analytics and is emerging as an early favorite for large public and private organizations. And its stock stands out as a top candidate for risk-tolerant investors looking to benefit from new evolutions in the Information Age.\nThe next decade will see an explosion of new connected devices and communications services. The Internet of Things will bring a wide range of new tech hardware online, and sensor technology will expand the range of objects that generate data. Virtual machines communicating with one another online will further power the ongoing data boom, and this surge of new information will create a flood of valuable new information to sort through and analyze.\nPalantir's Foundry software platform helps manage data and predict outcomes with data analytics and artificial intelligence. Thus far, the company has demonstrated an impressive ability to deliver solutions that are ahead of the curve, and it's continued to provide users with consistent updates and upgrades that have boosted the value of its software. These initiatives are helping the company bring new customers on board and get existing customers to increase their spending through the platform.\nPalantir is already finding success with its land-and-expand business model, but it's important to keep in mind just how much room for expansion is still there. While data analytics has already played a big role in shaping the direction of the 21st century, this is still a young science and industry, and it will likely only become increasingly influential. Whether its governance on the national, state, or local level or mapping out crucial next moves for a small or large business, data analytics will play a big role in separating the winners from the losers in both the public and private sectors.\nThe company ranks as the 23rd most-held stock among Robinhood users, but it stands out for other reasons too. Palantir is a disruptive first mover operating in an industry that has a huge runway for growth over the long term. I think that investors who take a buy-and-hold approach could go on to see very strong returns from the stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":57,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":898745479,"gmtCreate":1628524709591,"gmtModify":1633746428881,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Recovery in plc","listText":"Recovery in plc","text":"Recovery in plc","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/898745479","repostId":"1178191338","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1178191338","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1628520138,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1178191338?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-09 22:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Job Openings Hit New Record in June, Surpassing 10 Million","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1178191338","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- U.S. job openings surged in June by more than forecast to a fresh record high, highli","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- U.S. job openings surged in June by more than forecast to a fresh record high, highlighting businesses’ persistent struggles to hire enough workers to keep up with rebounding economic activity.</p>\n<p>The number of available positions rose to 10.1 million during the month from an upwardly revised 9.5 million in May, the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS, showed Monday.

Meanwhile, big developers like CityDev and UOL also have sizable development businesses similar to CAPL.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":120,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":834165376,"gmtCreate":1629781284595,"gmtModify":1631888608881,"author":{"id":"4087948369688660","authorId":"4087948369688660","name":"blessings","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087948369688660","authorIdStr":"4087948369688660"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Irobot","listText":"Irobot","text":"Irobot","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/834165376","repostId":"1183887279","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":389,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
