The strategy replicated a move that Mr. Grayused to turbocharge the growthof the firm’s real-estate investment trust, called BREIT.</p>\n<p>It also marks a culture shift, as the hedge-fund operations that once lent Blackstone its Wall Street cachet fall out of favor. And large money managers that traditionally focused on private equity see a bigger opportunity in debt, where the addressable market could be as large as $40 trillion.</p>\n<p>The resurgent credit business should help Blackstone in the race for investor dollars against its principal competitors, includingApollo Global ManagementInc.,Ares ManagementCorp.and KKR &amp; Co.</p>\n<p>Debt specialists Apollo and Ares have pledged to boost assets to $1 trillion and $500 billion, respectively, in coming years, while KKR more than doubled its credit business this year, primarily by purchasing insurer Global Atlantic Financial Group Ltd. Only Ares grew its own credit business as fast as Blackstone this year.</p>\n<p>Several large credit firms vied to win the lead role providing $2.6 billion of loans this year for private-equity firm Thoma Bravo LP’s leveraged buyout of Stamps.com Inc. Blackstone walked away with the top spot by offering to backstop the entire amount, Dwight Scott, head of Blackstone Credit, said.</p>\n<p>The firm historically operated in debt markets through GSO Capital Partners, a hedge-fund manager it acquired in 2008 that was known for large, aggressive and lucrative trades. GSO’s founders— Bennett Goodman, Tripp Smith and Doug Ostrover —all left Blackstone in recent years. The credit business jettisoned the GSO name last year and has shut its hedge funds.</p>\n<p>Blackstone’s separate hedge-fund solutions business has shrunk in importance to 11% of total assets, down from 19.4% five years ago, according to earnings reports. John McCormick, co-head of Blackstone’s funds-of-hedge-funds business, told colleagues last month thathe plans to resign.</p>\n<p>The hedge-fund solutions unit’s “revenues and earnings have doubled in the last three years and the business will continue to expand through new offerings and senior hires,” a Blackstone spokeswoman said.</p>\n<p>The rebranded Blackstone Credit is aggressively marketing less-risky, cheaper funds to individual investors.</p>\n<p>“It’s all about de-risking the portfolio,” said Mr. Scott. Blackstone believes the lower-fee products allow it to deliver attractive returns to investors without reaching for yield by purchasing debt with a higher chance of default, he said.</p>\n<p>The credit revamp is part of Blackstone’s aim to achieve $1 trillion in assets by 2026. To get there, Mr. Gray has encouraged Blackstone’s business headsto embrace a thematic investing approachfocused on fast-growing industries. In credit, this translates into more loans to sectors such as technology and life sciences.</p>\n<p>Blackstone earlier this year launched BCRED, a business development company, or BDC, which makes direct loans to medium-size companies. BCRED raised $9.4 billion through share sales this year, primarily to individual investors.</p>\n<p>Blackstone made its first big foray into credit whenit bought GSOfor about $1 billion. GSO hedge funds excelled at big risky bets on distressed debt thatreturned as much as $100 million each.</p>\n<p>The firm also joined with Franklin Square Holdings LP, which launched a BDC in 2009. GSO made the loans and split management fees with Franklin Square, which raised money from individual investors. Upfront broker and management fees averaged 9.4% in the BDC’s early days, high enough toattract scrutiny from regulators.</p>\n<p>Credit assets jumped about fivefold to $128 billion in the decade after the GSO acquisition as the business built a mixture of BDCs, hedge funds and securitized bundles of low-rated debt known as collateralized loan obligations.</p>\n<p>The growth stalled out in mid-2018 when the venture with Franklin Square dissolved over the profit-sharing split and differing growth strategies. Blackstoneexited from the businessin exchange for a $640 million breakup fee. The last of the GSO founders resigned shortly afterward.</p>\n<p>Credit assets under management rose by 3.1% to $144.3 billion from April 2018 to the end of 2019 even as Blackstone’s overall assets swelled by 27%, according to company earnings reports. Apollo’s credit assets grew 30.4% over the same period to $215.5 billion and Ares’s surged 43% to $110.5 billion.</p>\n<p>Blackstone spent that time designing the terms and sales engine for its new BDC, from which it earns all of the management fees, said Brad Marshall, co-head of performing credit at the firm. BCRED uses the same brokers that sell BREIT for marketing and charges a 1.25% management fee and a 12.5% performance fee. Most big competitors charge 1.5% and 17.5%-20%, respectively, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings.</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>Blackstone Turns Sluggish Credit Business Into a Winner</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\">\nBlackstone Turns Sluggish Credit Business Into a Winner\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-10 18:40 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.wsj.com/articles/blackstone-turns-sluggish-credit-business-into-a-winner-11636540201?siteid=yhoof2><strong>Wall Street Journal</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Blackstone Inc.towers over most of its private-equity peers with $731 billion in assets, but the firm has had a soft underbelly for years: its sluggish lending business.

Only Ares grew its own credit business as fast as Blackstone this year.\nSeveral large credit firms vied to win the lead role providing $2.6 billion of loans this year for private-equity firm Thoma Bravo LP’s leveraged buyout of Stamps.com Inc. Blackstone walked away with the top spot by offering to backstop the entire amount, Dwight Scott, head of Blackstone Credit, said.\nThe firm historically operated in debt markets through GSO Capital Partners, a hedge-fund manager it acquired in 2008 that was known for large, aggressive and lucrative trades. GSO’s founders— Bennett Goodman, Tripp Smith and Doug Ostrover —all left Blackstone in recent years. The credit business jettisoned the GSO name last year and has shut its hedge funds.\nBlackstone’s separate hedge-fund solutions business has shrunk in importance to 11% of total assets, down from 19.4% five years ago, according to earnings reports. John McCormick, co-head of Blackstone’s funds-of-hedge-funds business, told colleagues last month thathe plans to resign.\nThe hedge-fund solutions unit’s “revenues and earnings have doubled in the last three years and the business will continue to expand through new offerings and senior hires,” a Blackstone spokeswoman said.\nThe rebranded Blackstone Credit is aggressively marketing less-risky, cheaper funds to individual investors.\n“It’s all about de-risking the portfolio,” said Mr. Scott. Blackstone believes the lower-fee products allow it to deliver attractive returns to investors without reaching for yield by purchasing debt with a higher chance of default, he said.\nThe credit revamp is part of Blackstone’s aim to achieve $1 trillion in assets by 2026. To get there, Mr. Gray has encouraged Blackstone’s business headsto embrace a thematic investing approachfocused on fast-growing industries. In credit, this translates into more loans to sectors such as technology and life sciences.\nBlackstone earlier this year launched BCRED, a business development company, or BDC, which makes direct loans to medium-size companies. BCRED raised $9.4 billion through share sales this year, primarily to individual investors.\nBlackstone made its first big foray into credit whenit bought GSOfor about $1 billion. GSO hedge funds excelled at big risky bets on distressed debt thatreturned as much as $100 million each.\nThe firm also joined with Franklin Square Holdings LP, which launched a BDC in 2009. GSO made the loans and split management fees with Franklin Square, which raised money from individual investors. Upfront broker and management fees averaged 9.4% in the BDC’s early days, high enough toattract scrutiny from regulators.\nCredit assets jumped about fivefold to $128 billion in the decade after the GSO acquisition as the business built a mixture of BDCs, hedge funds and securitized bundles of low-rated debt known as collateralized loan obligations.\nThe growth stalled out in mid-2018 when the venture with Franklin Square dissolved over the profit-sharing split and differing growth strategies. Blackstoneexited from the businessin exchange for a $640 million breakup fee. The last of the GSO founders resigned shortly afterward.\nCredit assets under management rose by 3.1% to $144.3 billion from April 2018 to the end of 2019 even as Blackstone’s overall assets swelled by 27%, according to company earnings reports. Apollo’s credit assets grew 30.4% over the same period to $215.5 billion and Ares’s surged 43% to $110.5 billion.\nBlackstone spent that time designing the terms and sales engine for its new BDC, from which it earns all of the management fees, said Brad Marshall, co-head of performing credit at the firm. BCRED uses the same brokers that sell BREIT for marketing and charges a 1.25% management fee and a 12.5% performance fee. Most big competitors charge 1.5% and 17.5%-20%, respectively, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":925,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":844937847,"gmtCreate":1636382572785,"gmtModify":1636382573050,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wows&nbsp;","listText":"Wows&nbsp;","text":"Wows","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/844937847","repostId":"1173434003","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173434003","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":1636381913,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1173434003?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-08 22:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow jumps 200 points after Congress passes infrastructure spending package","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173434003","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped to a new intraday high Monday after Congress approved an infrastructure spending package.The blue-chip average gained 220 points, or 0.6%.

Can they also fix it?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199866742","media":"CNN Business","summary":"(CNN Business)For billions of people around the world, Facebook can be a source for cute baby pictur","content":"<p>(CNN Business)For billions of people around the world, Facebook can be a source for cute baby pictures, vaccine misinformation and everything in between — and all of it surfaces in our feeds with the help of algorithms.</p>\n<p>Now, hours of testimony and thousands of pages of documents from Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen have renewed scrutiny of the impact Facebook and its algorithms have on teens, democracy and society at large. The fallout has raised the question of just how much Facebook, and perhaps platforms like it, can or should rethink using a bevy of algorithms to determine which pictures, videos and news users see.</p>\n<p>Haugen, a former Facebook product manager with a background in \"algorithmic product management,\" has in her critiques mainly focused on the company's algorithm designed to show users content they're most likely to engage with. She has said this is responsible for many of Facebook's problems, including fueling polarization, misinformation and other toxic content. Facebook, she said on a \"60 Minutes\" appearance, understands that if it makes the algorithm safer, \"people will spend less time on the site, they'll click on less ads, they'll make less money.\" (Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has pushed back at the idea that the company prioritizes profit over users' safety and well being.)</p>\n<p>Facebook's head of global policy management, Monika Bickert, said in an interview with CNN after Haugen's Senate hearing on Tuesday, that it's \"not true\" that the company's algorithms are designed to promote inflammatory content, and that Facebook actually does \"the opposite\" by demoting so-called click-bait.</p>\n<p>At times in her testimony, Haugen appeared to suggest a radical rethinking of how the news feed should operate to address the issues she presented via extensive documentation from within the company. \"I'm a strong proponent of chronological ranking, ordering by time,\" she said in her testimony before a Senate subcommittee last week. \"Because I think we don't want computers deciding what we focus on.\"</p>\n<p>But algorithms that pick and choose what we see are central not just to Facebook but to numerous social media platforms that followed in Facebook's footsteps. TikTok, for example, would be unrecognizable without content-recommendation algorithms running the show. And the bigger the platform, the bigger the need for algorithms to sift and sort content.</p>\n<p>Algorithms are not going away. But there are ways for Facebook to improve them, experts in algorithms and artificial intelligence told CNN Business. It will, however, require something Facebook has so far appeared reluctant to offer (despite executive talking points): more transparency and control for users.</p>\n<p>What's in an algorithm?</p>\n<p>The Facebook you experience today, with a constant flow of algorithmically-picked information and ads, is a vastly different social network from what it was in its early days. In 2004, when Facebook first launched as a site for college students, it was both simpler and more tedious to navigate: If you wanted to see what friends were posting, you had to go visit their profiles one at a time.</p>\n<p>This began to shift in a major way in 2006, when Facebook introduced the News Feed, giving users a fire hose of updates from family, friends, and that guy they went on a couple bad dates with. From the start, Facebook reportedly used algorithms to filter content users saw in the News Feed. In a 2015 Time Magazine story, the company's chief product officer, Chris Cox, said curation was necessary even then because there was too much information to show it all to every user. Over time, Facebook's algorithms evolved, and users became accustomed to algorithms determining how Facebook content would be presented.</p>\n<p>An algorithm is a set of mathematical steps or instructions, particularly for a computer, telling it what to do with certain inputs to produce certain outputs. You can think of it as roughly akin to a recipe, where the ingredients are inputs and the final dish is the output. On Facebook and other social media sites, however, you and your actions — what you write or images you post — are the input. What the social network shows you — whether it's a post from your best friend or an ad for camping gear — is the output.</p>\n<p>At their best, these algorithms can help personalize feeds so users discover new people and content that matches their interests based on prior activity. At its worst, as Haugen and others have pointed out, they run the risk of directing people down troubling rabbit holes that can expose them to toxic content and misinformation. In either case, they keep people scrolling longer, potentially helping Facebook make more money by showing users more ads.</p>\n<p>Many algorithms work in concert to create the experience you see on Facebook, Instagram, and elsewhere online. This can make it even more complicated to tease out what's going on inside such systems, particularly in a large company like Facebook where multiple teams build various algorithms.</p>\n<p>\"If some higher power were to go to Facebook and say, 'Fix the algorithm in XY,' that's really hard because they've become really complex systems with many many inputs, many weights, and they're like multiple systems working together,\" said Hilary Ross, a senior program manager at Harvard University's Berkman Klein Center for Internet &amp; Society and manager of its Institute for Rebooting Social Media.</p>\n<p>More transparency</p>\n<p>There are ways to make these processes clearer and give users more say in how they work, though. Margaret Mitchell, who leads artificial intelligence ethics for AI model builder Hugging Face and formerly co-led Google's ethical AI team, thinks this could be done by allowing you to view details about why you're seeing what you're seeing on a social network, such as in response to the posts, ads, and other things you look at and interact with.</p>\n<p>\"You can even imagine having some say in it. You might be able to select preferences for the kinds of things you want to be optimized for you,\" she said, such as how often you want to see content from your immediate family, high school friends, or baby pictures. All of those things may change over time. Why not let users control them?</p>\n<p>Transparency is key, she said, because it incentivizes good behavior from the social networks.</p>\n<p>Another way social networks could be pushed in the direction of increased transparency is by increasing independent auditing of their algorithmic practices, according to Sasha Costanza-Chock, director of research and design at the Algorithmic Justice League. They envision this as including fully independent researchers, investigative journalists, or people inside regulatory bodies — not social media companies themselves, or companies they hire — who have the knowledge, skills, and legal authority to demand access to algorithmic systems in order to ensure laws aren't violated and best practices are followed.</p>\n<p>James Mickens, a computer science professor at Harvard and co-director of the Berkman Klein Center's Institute for Rebooting Social Media, suggests looking to the ways elections can be audited without revealing private information about voters (such as who each person voted for) for insights about how algorithms may be audited and reformed. He thinks that could give some insights for building an audit system that would allow people outside of Facebook to provide oversight while protecting sensitive data.</p>\n<p>Other metrics for success</p>\n<p>A big hurdle, experts say, to making meaningful improvements is social networks' current focus on the importance of engagement, or the amount of time users spend scrolling, clicking, and otherwise interacting with social media posts and ads.</p>\n<p>Haugen revealed internal documents from Facebook that show the social network is aware that its \"core product mechanics, such as virality, recommendations and optimizing for engagement, are a significant part\" of why hate speech and misinformation \"flourish\" on its platform.</p>\n<p>Changing this is tricky, experts said, though several agreed that it may involve considering the feelings users have when using social media and not just the amount of time they spend using it.</p>\n<p>\"Engagement is not a synonym for good mental health,\" said Mickens.</p>\n<p>Can algorithms truly help fix Facebook's problems, though? Mickens, at least, is hopeful the answer is yes.

The fallout has raised the question of just how much Facebook, and perhaps platforms like it, can or should rethink using a bevy of algorithms to determine which pictures, videos and news users see.\nHaugen, a former Facebook product manager with a background in \"algorithmic product management,\" has in her critiques mainly focused on the company's algorithm designed to show users content they're most likely to engage with. She has said this is responsible for many of Facebook's problems, including fueling polarization, misinformation and other toxic content. Facebook, she said on a \"60 Minutes\" appearance, understands that if it makes the algorithm safer, \"people will spend less time on the site, they'll click on less ads, they'll make less money.\" (Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has pushed back at the idea that the company prioritizes profit over users' safety and well being.)\nFacebook's head of global policy management, Monika Bickert, said in an interview with CNN after Haugen's Senate hearing on Tuesday, that it's \"not true\" that the company's algorithms are designed to promote inflammatory content, and that Facebook actually does \"the opposite\" by demoting so-called click-bait.\nAt times in her testimony, Haugen appeared to suggest a radical rethinking of how the news feed should operate to address the issues she presented via extensive documentation from within the company. \"I'm a strong proponent of chronological ranking, ordering by time,\" she said in her testimony before a Senate subcommittee last week. \"Because I think we don't want computers deciding what we focus on.\"\nBut algorithms that pick and choose what we see are central not just to Facebook but to numerous social media platforms that followed in Facebook's footsteps. TikTok, for example, would be unrecognizable without content-recommendation algorithms running the show. And the bigger the platform, the bigger the need for algorithms to sift and sort content.\nAlgorithms are not going away. But there are ways for Facebook to improve them, experts in algorithms and artificial intelligence told CNN Business. It will, however, require something Facebook has so far appeared reluctant to offer (despite executive talking points): more transparency and control for users.\nWhat's in an algorithm?\nThe Facebook you experience today, with a constant flow of algorithmically-picked information and ads, is a vastly different social network from what it was in its early days. In 2004, when Facebook first launched as a site for college students, it was both simpler and more tedious to navigate: If you wanted to see what friends were posting, you had to go visit their profiles one at a time.\nThis began to shift in a major way in 2006, when Facebook introduced the News Feed, giving users a fire hose of updates from family, friends, and that guy they went on a couple bad dates with. From the start, Facebook reportedly used algorithms to filter content users saw in the News Feed. In a 2015 Time Magazine story, the company's chief product officer, Chris Cox, said curation was necessary even then because there was too much information to show it all to every user. Over time, Facebook's algorithms evolved, and users became accustomed to algorithms determining how Facebook content would be presented.\nAn algorithm is a set of mathematical steps or instructions, particularly for a computer, telling it what to do with certain inputs to produce certain outputs. You can think of it as roughly akin to a recipe, where the ingredients are inputs and the final dish is the output. On Facebook and other social media sites, however, you and your actions — what you write or images you post — are the input. What the social network shows you — whether it's a post from your best friend or an ad for camping gear — is the output.\nAt their best, these algorithms can help personalize feeds so users discover new people and content that matches their interests based on prior activity. At its worst, as Haugen and others have pointed out, they run the risk of directing people down troubling rabbit holes that can expose them to toxic content and misinformation. In either case, they keep people scrolling longer, potentially helping Facebook make more money by showing users more ads.\nMany algorithms work in concert to create the experience you see on Facebook, Instagram, and elsewhere online. This can make it even more complicated to tease out what's going on inside such systems, particularly in a large company like Facebook where multiple teams build various algorithms.\n\"If some higher power were to go to Facebook and say, 'Fix the algorithm in XY,' that's really hard because they've become really complex systems with many many inputs, many weights, and they're like multiple systems working together,\" said Hilary Ross, a senior program manager at Harvard University's Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society and manager of its Institute for Rebooting Social Media.\nMore transparency\nThere are ways to make these processes clearer and give users more say in how they work, though. Margaret Mitchell, who leads artificial intelligence ethics for AI model builder Hugging Face and formerly co-led Google's ethical AI team, thinks this could be done by allowing you to view details about why you're seeing what you're seeing on a social network, such as in response to the posts, ads, and other things you look at and interact with.\n\"You can even imagine having some say in it. You might be able to select preferences for the kinds of things you want to be optimized for you,\" she said, such as how often you want to see content from your immediate family, high school friends, or baby pictures. All of those things may change over time. Why not let users control them?\nTransparency is key, she said, because it incentivizes good behavior from the social networks.\nAnother way social networks could be pushed in the direction of increased transparency is by increasing independent auditing of their algorithmic practices, according to Sasha Costanza-Chock, director of research and design at the Algorithmic Justice League. They envision this as including fully independent researchers, investigative journalists, or people inside regulatory bodies — not social media companies themselves, or companies they hire — who have the knowledge, skills, and legal authority to demand access to algorithmic systems in order to ensure laws aren't violated and best practices are followed.\nJames Mickens, a computer science professor at Harvard and co-director of the Berkman Klein Center's Institute for Rebooting Social Media, suggests looking to the ways elections can be audited without revealing private information about voters (such as who each person voted for) for insights about how algorithms may be audited and reformed. He thinks that could give some insights for building an audit system that would allow people outside of Facebook to provide oversight while protecting sensitive data.\nOther metrics for success\nA big hurdle, experts say, to making meaningful improvements is social networks' current focus on the importance of engagement, or the amount of time users spend scrolling, clicking, and otherwise interacting with social media posts and ads.\nHaugen revealed internal documents from Facebook that show the social network is aware that its \"core product mechanics, such as virality, recommendations and optimizing for engagement, are a significant part\" of why hate speech and misinformation \"flourish\" on its platform.\nChanging this is tricky, experts said, though several agreed that it may involve considering the feelings users have when using social media and not just the amount of time they spend using it.\n\"Engagement is not a synonym for good mental health,\" said Mickens.\nCan algorithms truly help fix Facebook's problems, though? Mickens, at least, is hopeful the answer is yes. He does think they can be optimized more toward the public interest. \"The question is: What will convince these companies to start thinking this way?\" he said.\nIn the past, some might have said it would require pressure from advertisers whose dollars support these platforms. But in her testimony, Haugen seemed to bet on a different answer: pressure from Congress.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":823392442,"gmtCreate":1633579349756,"gmtModify":1633579349991,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up and down both sides can make monies.

Shopify offers an omnichannel commerce platform</h2>\n<p>Shopify makes commerce easier. Its software helps merchants manage their businesses across physical and digital storefronts, integrating transactions from brick-and-mortar locations, online marketplaces, social media shops, and custom websites into a single point-of-sale system. Shopify supplements its software with services like payment processing, discounted shipping, and financing. In short, its platform is an end-to-end solution for modern omnichannel commerce.</p>\n<p>That value proposition resonates with merchants, giving them the flexibility to support any customer experiences (e.g. buy online, curbside pickup, shop in-store) on any device or platform. As a result, Shopify has onboarded new clients at a rapid clip, and its platform now powers over 1.7 million&nbsp;businesses worldwide.</p>\n<p>Moreover, while Shopify remains a good solution for small- and medium-size businesses, its platform is also gaining traction outside of this core demographic. Shopify Plus, a more flexible commerce solution designed for larger sellers, has seen adoption by over 10,000 enterprises, including Fortune 500 companies like <b>Netflix</b>, <b>PepsiCo</b>, and <b>Unilever</b>.</p>\n<h2>2. Shopify's competitive edge is ironclad</h2>\n<p>Shopify is the most popular e-commerce platform in the U.S., holding a 29%&nbsp;market share. The breadth and scale of its ecosystem differentiates it from website builders like <b>Wix</b>, its ease of use sets it apart from WooCommerce, and its focus on helping businesses grow their own brand, which gives it an edge over marketplaces like <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p>To reinforce that advantage, the company is building the Shopify Fulfillment Network (SFN), a system of robot-powered warehouses that will span the United States. Once complete, this infrastructure will allow Shopify to pick, package, and ship products on behalf of its merchants while leveraging the data created across its platform to optimize supply chains and streamline logistics.</p>\n<p>Specifically, the company will lean on artificial intelligence for demand forecasting, smart inventory allocation, and intelligent order routing, simplifying the fulfillment process for sellers and providing fast, reliable delivery for buyers.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/65868c801cfbbcb2ddc969efa5ecc7a0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>3. Shopify benefits from optionality in digital payments</h2>\n<p>Shopify benefits from optionality, meaning it has the flexibility to enter adjacent industries. However, many investors overlook this quality, focusing instead on its role in e-commerce.</p>\n<p>However, Shopify recently announced that Shop Pay, its accelerated checkout solution, will be available on both<b> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a></b> and <b>Alphabet</b>'s Google later in 2021. This means all sellers on those platforms, even those that don't use Shopify, will be able to accept payments through Shop Pay -- the highest-converting&nbsp;checkout solution on the internet, according to management.</p>\n<p>This may not seem like a big deal, and it's not -- yet. But years ago, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MELI\">MercadoLibre</a></b> made a similar move with its own fintech platform, Mercado Pago. And today, Mercado Pago actually handles more payments from third-party sellers than from the MercadoLibre marketplace, demonstrating its widespread adoption in Latin America.</p>\n<p>If Shopify achieves similar success, Shop Pay could become a powerful growth engine, helping the company pivot more completely into the digital payments space.</p>\n<h2>4. Shopify has a solid balance sheet</h2>\n<p>Optionality isn't Shopify's only underrated asset. It also has $7.8 billion&nbsp;in cash and short-term securities on its balance sheet, compared with just $910 million&nbsp;in long-term debt. That pile of cash means Shopify can weather economic downturns without selling new shares or issuing debt, and it affords the company the flexibility to invest in growth opportunities as they arise.</p>\n<p>For example, Shopify recently signed an exclusive partnership with <b>Global-E Online</b>, a company that simplifies cross-border e-commerce for merchants. As part of that deal, Shopify has purchased 9.7 million&nbsp;shares (6.7%) of Global-E common stock. But down the road, Shopify could acquire the company outright, a move that would allow it to monetize e-commerce beyond its own platform.</p>\n<p>Of course, that's pure speculation, but the point is this: Shopify's solid financial position gives the company an edge.</p>\n<h2>5. Strong financial performance</h2>\n<p>No discussion about Shopify would be complete without mentioning its impressive financial performance. As online shopping has become more popular, merchants have flocked to Shopify's platform, helping the company grow its top and bottom lines quickly.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q2 2018 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q2 2021 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>CAGR</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Revenue</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$853.6 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$3.9 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>65%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>($31.5 million)</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$507.0 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>N/A</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Source: YCharts. TTM = trailing-12-months. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, I think Shopify should be able to maintain this momentum. Management currently puts its addressable market at $153 billion, but global e-commerce is still a relatively small portion of total retail spend, meaning that market opportunity will only get bigger. More importantly, Shopify has positioned itself as an industry leader, and it still has plenty of growth levers left to pull. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see the company achieve a $1 trillion market cap a decade down the road.</p>\n<p>That's why it's not too late to buy this stock.</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>5 Reasons It's Not too Late to Buy Shopify Stock</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\">\n5 Reasons It's Not too Late to Buy Shopify Stock\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-07 11:58 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/06/5-reasons-its-not-too-late-to-buy-shopify-stock/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>It may seem counterintuitive to invest in a company after its share price has grown multiple times in value.

This means all sellers on those platforms, even those that don't use Shopify, will be able to accept payments through Shop Pay -- the highest-converting checkout solution on the internet, according to management.\nThis may not seem like a big deal, and it's not -- yet. But years ago, MercadoLibre made a similar move with its own fintech platform, Mercado Pago. And today, Mercado Pago actually handles more payments from third-party sellers than from the MercadoLibre marketplace, demonstrating its widespread adoption in Latin America.\nIf Shopify achieves similar success, Shop Pay could become a powerful growth engine, helping the company pivot more completely into the digital payments space.\n4. Shopify has a solid balance sheet\nOptionality isn't Shopify's only underrated asset. It also has $7.8 billion in cash and short-term securities on its balance sheet, compared with just $910 million in long-term debt. That pile of cash means Shopify can weather economic downturns without selling new shares or issuing debt, and it affords the company the flexibility to invest in growth opportunities as they arise.\nFor example, Shopify recently signed an exclusive partnership with Global-E Online, a company that simplifies cross-border e-commerce for merchants. As part of that deal, Shopify has purchased 9.7 million shares (6.7%) of Global-E common stock. But down the road, Shopify could acquire the company outright, a move that would allow it to monetize e-commerce beyond its own platform.\nOf course, that's pure speculation, but the point is this: Shopify's solid financial position gives the company an edge.\n5. Strong financial performance\nNo discussion about Shopify would be complete without mentioning its impressive financial performance. As online shopping has become more popular, merchants have flocked to Shopify's platform, helping the company grow its top and bottom lines quickly.\n\n\n\nMetric\nQ2 2018 (TTM)\nQ2 2021 (TTM)\nCAGR\n\n\n\n\nRevenue\n$853.6 million\n$3.9 billion\n65%\n\n\nFree cash flow\n($31.5 million)\n$507.0 million\nN/A\n\n\n\nSource: YCharts. TTM = trailing-12-months. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.\nLooking ahead, I think Shopify should be able to maintain this momentum. Management currently puts its addressable market at $153 billion, but global e-commerce is still a relatively small portion of total retail spend, meaning that market opportunity will only get bigger. More importantly, Shopify has positioned itself as an industry leader, and it still has plenty of growth levers left to pull. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see the company achieve a $1 trillion market cap a decade down the road.\nThat's why it's not too late to buy this stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":415,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":823392864,"gmtCreate":1633579323594,"gmtModify":1633579323841,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up and down both sides can make monies.

The analysts were also asked to pick out companies that scored in the top third of their respective sectors based on UBS Equity Strategy’s composite score for pricing power, margin momentum and input cost exposure; have “buy” ratings; and have stocks with at least 10% upside potential to their respective price targets.</p>\n<p>Here are 10 “high conviction, strong pricing power stocks” on UBS’s list that have at least 20% upside to the analysts’ stock price targets, in alphabetical order:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Advance Auto Parts Inc.,with a price target of $255, which implies an upside of about 21% to prices in afternoon trading Wednesday. Analyst Michael Lasser said he believes the auto parts company’s (AAP) aftermarket fundamentals are in a strong position, and that a gradual increase in mobility and a return to working in offices should drive further recovery in vehicle miles traveled.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“The auto parts sector traditionally has strong pricing power, with an ability to pass along price increases to customers,” Lasser wrote. “Plus, AAP also have the largest exposure to the commercial segment of the market, which is viewed even more favorably.”</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Apple Inc.,which has a price target of $175 that implies 24% upside. Analyst David Vogt said the combination of its technological capability, supported by its retention metrics from UBS surveys that indicate high customer satisfaction for Apple products, suggests the PC and smartphone giant’s brand equity should drive adoption in the battery-electric-vehicle (BEV) market.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“End-market demand has been improving year-over-year, leading to elevated ‘wait times’ despite increased product procurement/production,” Vogt wrote. Regarding the BEV market, Vogt said that while Apple isn’t a first mover, “its significant resources should enable the company to be a ‘fast follower,'” similar to when it entered the smartphone market in 2007.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>CME Group Inc.,with a price target of $245 implying 23% upside. Analyst Alex Kramm said the derivatives trading platform benefits from global expansion, innovation, adoption of options and pricing. And he believes regulation could provide a tailwind to growth.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“As primarily a U.S. futures business, CME enjoys the highest barriers of entry in the space,” Kramm wrote.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Danaher Corp.&nbsp;has a price target of $365, which implies 22% upside. Analyst John Sourbeer believes the medical products and services company (DHR) is “very well positioned” within the life sciences tool and services sector, as COVID testing should hold up much better than peers and the vaccine and therapeutic opportunity appears durable.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“DHR sales engine is able to proactively identify areas of potential pricing pressure and [successfully] navigate customers to high-value product,” Sourbeer wrote.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>EOG Resources Inc.&nbsp;has a $119 stock price target that suggests 38% upside. Analyst Lloyd Byrne the oil and natural gas exploration company is well positioned to mitigate inflationary pressures expected next year given well costs that are expected to be flat to lower in 2022 because of reduced drilling days, the deployment of “super zipper fracs” and contracts negotiated at lower rates.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“Pricing power in commodity companies is difficult to achieve. Those that can hold margins by best controlling costs, though, are better positioned,” Byrne wrote. “EOG is better positioned than most by being proactive with input and service costs, while excelling in operations.”</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Extra Space Storage Inc.’s&nbsp;stock price target of $210 implies 24% upside. Analyst Michael Goldsmith said he believes strong underlying demand, in conjunction with decelerating supply growth, support rent growth.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“Strong demand for self storage and elevated occupancy rates, combined with its non-discretionary nature increased pricing power of the operators,” Goldsmith wrote. “Operators are flexing their pricing power to new customers, as well as existing customer rent increases every 9-12 months.”</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Generac Holdings Inc.&nbsp;has a price target of $500, which implies 23% upside. Analyst Jon Windham believes the power generation equipment maker’s competitive edge lies in its customer acquisition platform, which should enable it to take market share from incumbents SolarEdge Technologies Inc.&nbsp;and Enphase Energy Inc..</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“Dominant market share (~80%) and strong demand for home standby power have insulated already high residential product margins,” Windham wrote.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Nike Inc.’s&nbsp;price target of $185 implies 24% upside. Analyst Jay Sole said a UBS survey and pricing data reveal that the Nike brand currently is No. 1 in mindshare globally and the sports apparel and accessories company has significant room to reduce promotions.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“We believe the market doesn’t fully appreciate how Nike’s investments in product innovation, supply chain and e-commerce are working in concert to drive unit growth and [average selling price] increases,” Sole wrote.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Salesforce.com Inc.&nbsp;has a stock price target of $330 that implies 20% upside potential. Analyst Karl Keirstead said the customer relationship management software company appears to be moving well beyond the previous era of limited operating margin expansion, and committing to boosting annual operating margins.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>“Importantly, the drivers behind the improved margin outlook strike us as sustainable, with topline outperformance, a permanent shift towards WFH [work from home] and Zoom-based customer interactions, and renewed expense discipline internally…the three biggest drivers,” Keirstead wrote.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Teleflex Inc.’s price target of $480 implies 28% upside. Analyst Matthew Taylor said the medical technology products company makes a number of inexpensive products that fly under the radar, given them the opportunity to increase prices.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Taylor said he believes margins can go “significantly higher” over the long term, given the company’s leverage to both necessary and elective procedures, which should return quickly in a post-pandemic world.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Analyst Michael Goldsmith said he believes strong underlying demand, in conjunction with decelerating supply growth, support rent growth.\n\n“Strong demand for self storage and elevated occupancy rates, combined with its non-discretionary nature increased pricing power of the operators,” Goldsmith wrote. “Operators are flexing their pricing power to new customers, as well as existing customer rent increases every 9-12 months.”\n\nGenerac Holdings Inc. has a price target of $500, which implies 23% upside. Analyst Jon Windham believes the power generation equipment maker’s competitive edge lies in its customer acquisition platform, which should enable it to take market share from incumbents SolarEdge Technologies Inc. and Enphase Energy Inc..\n\n“Dominant market share (~80%) and strong demand for home standby power have insulated already high residential product margins,” Windham wrote.\n\nNike Inc.’s price target of $185 implies 24% upside. Analyst Jay Sole said a UBS survey and pricing data reveal that the Nike brand currently is No. 1 in mindshare globally and the sports apparel and accessories company has significant room to reduce promotions.\n\n“We believe the market doesn’t fully appreciate how Nike’s investments in product innovation, supply chain and e-commerce are working in concert to drive unit growth and [average selling price] increases,” Sole wrote.\n\nSalesforce.com Inc. has a stock price target of $330 that implies 20% upside potential. Analyst Karl Keirstead said the customer relationship management software company appears to be moving well beyond the previous era of limited operating margin expansion, and committing to boosting annual operating margins.\n\n“Importantly, the drivers behind the improved margin outlook strike us as sustainable, with topline outperformance, a permanent shift towards WFH [work from home] and Zoom-based customer interactions, and renewed expense discipline internally…the three biggest drivers,” Keirstead wrote.\n\nTeleflex Inc.’s price target of $480 implies 28% upside. Analyst Matthew Taylor said the medical technology products company makes a number of inexpensive products that fly under the radar, given them the opportunity to increase prices.\n\nTaylor said he believes margins can go “significantly higher” over the long term, given the company’s leverage to both necessary and elective procedures, which should return quickly in a post-pandemic world.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":330,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":861406485,"gmtCreate":1632528929447,"gmtModify":1632712136236,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It’s ok downside give opportunities to buy","listText":"It’s ok downside give opportunities to buy","text":"It’s ok downside give opportunities to buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/861406485","repostId":"2170619785","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2170619785","pubTimestamp":1632518354,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2170619785?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-25 05:19","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Dow Jones, S&P 500 end with gains up after bumpy week, but Nike drags","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2170619785","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The Dow and S&P 500 edged higher on Friday (Sept 24) and ended a turbulent week","content":"<div>\n<p>NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The Dow and S&P 500 edged higher on Friday (Sept 24) and ended a turbulent week with slight increases, helped by gains in Tesla and Facebook that offset a tumble by Nike.\nAthletic...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/dow-jones-sp-500-end-with-gains-up-after-bumpy-week-but-nike-drags\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

On the flip side, Facebook climbed 2% and Tesla rose 2.7%.\nThe S&P communication services sector climbed 0.7% and was the second-biggest sector gainer of the day after energy, up 0.8%.\nStocks bounced back from a sharp selloff at the start of the week tied in part to concerns over a default by China's Evergrande and its potential risk to global financial markets.\nOn Friday, Evergrande's electric car unit warned it faced an uncertain future unless it got a swift injection of cash, the clearest sign yet that the property developer's liquidity crisis is worsening in other parts of its business.\n\"You've had a good recovery from the lows\" this week, said Rick Meckler, partner, Cherry Lane Investments, a family investment office in New Vernon, New Jersey.\n\"With rates this low - even if they are going to move up slowly - and with the fiscal stimulus you'll probably see coming, I think investors still prefer stocks to any other asset class.

While the rise and fall of Reebok is a fascinating story, the article got me thinking about stocks to buy for the “Brands” portfolio.</p>\n<p>After all, Authentic Brands itself hasfiled to go public. My fellow<i>InvestorPlace</i>contributor Dana Blankenhorn calls it the most fascinating IPO of the year.</p>\n<p>“Authentic’s S-1has more pictures than<b>Pinterest</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PINS</u></b>), but tells little about the business. The numbers are for 2020, before a host of recent deals. It only identifies direct licensing revenue, $488 million of it in that year. But $211 million of that money, 43%, wound up as net income. This is said to justify a $10 billion enterprise valuation,” Dana wrote on Sep. 20.</p>\n<p>I agree with my colleague. It’s definitely up there. Heck, by the time I’ve written this, the company’s stock might be eligible for my newest portfolio.</p>\n<p>But, for now,<i>Finviz.com</i>tells me there are34 public companieswith the word “Brands” as part of their corporate name. So, I’ll recommend the seven best stocks to buy from the bunch.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Restaurant Brands International</b>(NYSE:<b><u>QSR)</u></b></li>\n <li><b>Constellation Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>STZ)</u></b></li>\n <li><b>Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FBHS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Newell Brands</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NWL</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Acuity Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AYI</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Cornerstone Building Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CNR</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>BellRing Brands</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BRBR</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Restaurant Brands International (QSR)</p>\n<p>I begrudgingly put Restaurant Brands International, the owner of Tim Hortons, Burger King and Popeye’s, on my list of stocks to buy.</p>\n<p>Burger King acquired Tim Hortons in 2014 to form RBI. Ever since, I’ve had a hard time accepting the merger, given Burger King’s CEO made each Tim Horton’s head office employee justify their jobs in15-minute interviews.</p>\n<p>To date, I’d say I was right to be concerned about the poor treatment of employees. Over the past five years through Sept. 22, QSR stock has a total return of 9.0%, less than the Canadian market on the whole and nearly half the return of the entire U.S. market.</p>\n<p>In August, Tim Hortons China, a joint-venture between RBI and Hong Kong private equity firm<b>Cartesian Capital</b>, agreed to merge with<b>Silver Crest Acquisition Corp.</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>SLCR</u></b>) in a transaction that valued the Chinese segment of Tim Hortons at$1.7 billion.</p>\n<p>As long as<b>3G Capital</b>continues to own almost 30% of RBI stock, I’ll remain cautious in my praise.</p>\n<p>However, with$1.35 billionin trailing 12-month (TTM) free cash flow (FCF) and a 7.0% FCF yield, now could be an opportune time to pick up some shares.</p>\n<p>Constellation Brands (STZ)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51af367100d1d75a5ca277a1a9675c31\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: ShinoStock / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>A telltale sign Constellation Brands has become a big deal in corporate America is therecent announcementthat it would move 400 of its employees from its offices in Canandaigua, New York, to downtown Rochester.</p>\n<p>“The company investment is estimated at $50 million, while Landers [Peter Landers, majority investor in group that owns the downtown property] says the owners/developers’ will spend close to $35 million on historic restoration, stripping paint from the barrel ceilings and brick walls, and building a 120-space parking structure,” The<i>Democrat &amp; Chronicle</i>reported.</p>\n<p>While Constellation is known for Corona and Modelo beer, Svedka vodka, and Woodbridge wine, amongst others, it isthe company’s investmentin<b>Canopy Growth</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CGC</u></b>) that gets most of the attention.</p>\n<p>That’s because it’s taking forever to see the benefits of its multi-billion-dollar investment in the Canadian cannabis company. Since it acquired9.9% in October 2017, STZ stock has gone sideways over nearly 48 months.</p>\n<p>As a glass-half-full kind of person, I see the potential upside of its Canopy investment as a big reason to buy at current prices.</p>\n<p>Constellation has a TTM FCF of$2.0 billion, good for an FCF yield of 4.9%. When you consider the value yet to be extracted by its investment, STZ’s valuation is more than reasonable.</p>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security (FBHS)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c43d12689a9a34fc77425af4b7ac66d2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"165\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Fortune Brands Home &amp; Security wasspun offfrom<b>Fortune Brands Inc</b>, part of the then-holding company’s plan to deliver additional value for its shareholders almost a decade ago.</p>\n<p>At the same time, it sold its Acushnet business for $1.225 billion and renamed Fortune Brands as<b>Beam Inc.</b>, the holding company’s spirits business.

Before that, he was CEO of<b>Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers</b>(NYSE:<b><u>RBA</u></b>) from July 2014 to July 2019 and OfficeMax from November 2010 to November 2013. In addition, he oversaw the merger between OfficeMax and Office Depot.</p>\n<p>He’s been an executive for many years working in several different industries. Since joining Newell, NWL stock has gained 32% over nearly 24 months. That compares to 50% for the<b>S&amp;P 500 index</b>over the same period.</p>\n<p>Over the years, Newell Brands became quite bloated, with too many businesses generating too few profits. Newell might have underperformed so far in Saligram’s tenure, but he’s doing his best to set the company up for sustainable growth.</p>\n<p>“Along our journey, we will add capabilities to build competitive advantage. For example, we are building on our eCommerce capabilities and Digital First mindset (over 21% of our global sales are sold online) to become truly omni channel,” Saligram told the<i>Atlanta Business Chronicle.</i></p>\n<p>“We are creating consistent and compelling brand experiences for consumers no matter where they shop, how they shop or when they shop be it buy online, deliver to home, buy online pick up at the store, buy online pick up at curbside or shop at a store.”</p>\n<p>In 2019, Newell had an FCF of$780 million. In the TTM, it was $1.1 billion, a 41% increase. I would expect this FCF growth to continue.</p>\n<p>The performance in the next 24 months ought to be much better than the last 24.</p>\n<p>Stocks to Buy: Acuity Brands (AYI)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0fc99bca07cdb144fe2c7208776aed8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>It’s great to see the provider of commercial and residential lighting solutions doing well in the markets after a long stretch of less-than-stellar Acuity Brands shareholder returns.</p>\n<p>For example, if you invested $10,000 in AYI stock in September 2020, today, you would have approximately $17,294.

In 2021, it expects growth to continue.</p>\n<p>InJanuary 2019, I suggested that Acuity needed a new CEO who could bring a fresh perspective. Less than a year later, it did just that.

While the rise and fall of Reebok is a fascinating story, the article got me thinking about stocks to buy for the “Brands” portfolio.\nAfter all, Authentic Brands itself hasfiled to go public. My fellowInvestorPlacecontributor Dana Blankenhorn calls it the most fascinating IPO of the year.\n“Authentic’s S-1has more pictures thanPinterest(NYSE:PINS), but tells little about the business. The numbers are for 2020, before a host of recent deals. It only identifies direct licensing revenue, $488 million of it in that year. But $211 million of that money, 43%, wound up as net income. This is said to justify a $10 billion enterprise valuation,” Dana wrote on Sep. 20.\nI agree with my colleague. It’s definitely up there. Heck, by the time I’ve written this, the company’s stock might be eligible for my newest portfolio.\nBut, for now,Finviz.comtells me there are34 public companieswith the word “Brands” as part of their corporate name. So, I’ll recommend the seven best stocks to buy from the bunch.\n\nRestaurant Brands International(NYSE:QSR)\nConstellation Brands(NYSE:STZ)\nFortune Brands Home & Security(NYSE:FBHS)\nNewell Brands(NASDAQ:NWL)\nAcuity Brands(NYSE:AYI)\nCornerstone Building Brands(NYSE:CNR)\nBellRing Brands(NYSE:BRBR)\n\nStocks to Buy: Restaurant Brands International (QSR)\nI begrudgingly put Restaurant Brands International, the owner of Tim Hortons, Burger King and Popeye’s, on my list of stocks to buy.\nBurger King acquired Tim Hortons in 2014 to form RBI. Ever since, I’ve had a hard time accepting the merger, given Burger King’s CEO made each Tim Horton’s head office employee justify their jobs in15-minute interviews.\nTo date, I’d say I was right to be concerned about the poor treatment of employees. Over the past five years through Sept. 22, QSR stock has a total return of 9.0%, less than the Canadian market on the whole and nearly half the return of the entire U.S. market.\nIn August, Tim Hortons China, a joint-venture between RBI and Hong Kong private equity firmCartesian Capital, agreed to merge withSilver Crest Acquisition Corp.(NASDAQ:SLCR) in a transaction that valued the Chinese segment of Tim Hortons at$1.7 billion.\nAs long as3G Capitalcontinues to own almost 30% of RBI stock, I’ll remain cautious in my praise.\nHowever, with$1.35 billionin trailing 12-month (TTM) free cash flow (FCF) and a 7.0% FCF yield, now could be an opportune time to pick up some shares.\nConstellation Brands (STZ)Source: ShinoStock / Shutterstock.com\nA telltale sign Constellation Brands has become a big deal in corporate America is therecent announcementthat it would move 400 of its employees from its offices in Canandaigua, New York, to downtown Rochester.\n“The company investment is estimated at $50 million, while Landers [Peter Landers, majority investor in group that owns the downtown property] says the owners/developers’ will spend close to $35 million on historic restoration, stripping paint from the barrel ceilings and brick walls, and building a 120-space parking structure,” TheDemocrat & Chroniclereported.\nWhile Constellation is known for Corona and Modelo beer, Svedka vodka, and Woodbridge wine, amongst others, it isthe company’s investmentinCanopy Growth(NASDAQ:CGC) that gets most of the attention.\nThat’s because it’s taking forever to see the benefits of its multi-billion-dollar investment in the Canadian cannabis company. Since it acquired9.9% in October 2017, STZ stock has gone sideways over nearly 48 months.\nAs a glass-half-full kind of person, I see the potential upside of its Canopy investment as a big reason to buy at current prices.\nConstellation has a TTM FCF of$2.0 billion, good for an FCF yield of 4.9%. When you consider the value yet to be extracted by its investment, STZ’s valuation is more than reasonable.\nStocks to Buy: Fortune Brands Home & Security (FBHS)Source: Shutterstock\nFortune Brands Home & Security wasspun offfromFortune Brands Inc, part of the then-holding company’s plan to deliver additional value for its shareholders almost a decade ago.\nAt the same time, it sold its Acushnet business for $1.225 billion and renamed Fortune Brands asBeam Inc., the holding company’s spirits business. Beam was subsequently sold toSuntory Holdingsin 2014 for $16 billion, including the assumption of debt.\nFortune shareholders got one share of FBHS for each share in the parent. FBHS stock has generated a total return of 22.4% over the past decade, 548 basis points higher than the entire U.S. market.\nThe company hasthree operating segments: Plumbing, Outdoors & Security, and Cabinets. Its brands include Moen faucets, Larson doors, Master Lock locks, MasterBrand cabinets, and many more.\nTogether, they have TTM sales of $7.02 billion, $1.03 billion in operating income, $650 million in FCF, and an FCF yield of 5.0%.\nIt’s a great business to own for the long haul.\nNewell Brands (NWL)Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com\nNewell CEO Ravi Saligram was recently named one ofAtlanta’s best CEOsby theAtlanta Business Chronicle.Saligram joined Newell as CEO inOctober 2019. Before that, he was CEO ofRitchie Bros. Auctioneers(NYSE:RBA) from July 2014 to July 2019 and OfficeMax from November 2010 to November 2013. In addition, he oversaw the merger between OfficeMax and Office Depot.\nHe’s been an executive for many years working in several different industries. Since joining Newell, NWL stock has gained 32% over nearly 24 months. That compares to 50% for theS&P 500 indexover the same period.\nOver the years, Newell Brands became quite bloated, with too many businesses generating too few profits. Newell might have underperformed so far in Saligram’s tenure, but he’s doing his best to set the company up for sustainable growth.\n“Along our journey, we will add capabilities to build competitive advantage.

In the TTM, it was $1.1 billion, a 41% increase. I would expect this FCF growth to continue.\nThe performance in the next 24 months ought to be much better than the last 24.\nStocks to Buy: Acuity Brands (AYI)Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com\nIt’s great to see the provider of commercial and residential lighting solutions doing well in the markets after a long stretch of less-than-stellar Acuity Brands shareholder returns.\nFor example, if you invested $10,000 in AYI stock in September 2020, today, you would have approximately $17,294.

Kudos to Nagel for recognizing it was time to move aside.\nCornerstone Building Brands (CNR)Source: ©iStock.com/Sashick\nOf all the names on this list, Cornerstone Building Brands is the only one I didn’t recognize.\nThe North Carolina-based provider of commercial, residential, and repair & remodel building products is the largest manufacturer of exterior building products in North America.\nAlthough the Cornerstone name only came into existence inNovember 2018after the merger between NCI Building Systems and Ply Gem Parent LLC, the two companies have a history of more than 75 years.\nSince the merger’s completion, CNR stock has experienced its fair share of highs and lows, falling to less than $3 in the March 2020 correction, then recovering to almost $20 in June before settling back into the mid-teens in late September.\nA prominent owner of Cornerstone stock isBlueTower Asset Management, a Texas-based portfolio manager.

She has said this is responsible for many of Facebook's problems, including fueling polarization, misinformation and other toxic content. Facebook, she said on a \"60 Minutes\" appearance, understands that if it makes the algorithm safer, \"people will spend less time on the site, they'll click on less ads, they'll make less money.\" (Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has pushed back at the idea that the company prioritizes profit over users' safety and well being.)</p>\n<p>Facebook's head of global policy management, Monika Bickert, said in an interview with CNN after Haugen's Senate hearing on Tuesday, that it's \"not true\" that the company's algorithms are designed to promote inflammatory content, and that Facebook actually does \"the opposite\" by demoting so-called click-bait.</p>\n<p>At times in her testimony, Haugen appeared to suggest a radical rethinking of how the news feed should operate to address the issues she presented via extensive documentation from within the company. \"I'm a strong proponent of chronological ranking, ordering by time,\" she said in her testimony before a Senate subcommittee last week. \"Because I think we don't want computers deciding what we focus on.\"</p>\n<p>But algorithms that pick and choose what we see are central not just to Facebook but to numerous social media platforms that followed in Facebook's footsteps. TikTok, for example, would be unrecognizable without content-recommendation algorithms running the show. And the bigger the platform, the bigger the need for algorithms to sift and sort content.</p>\n<p>Algorithms are not going away. But there are ways for Facebook to improve them, experts in algorithms and artificial intelligence told CNN Business. It will, however, require something Facebook has so far appeared reluctant to offer (despite executive talking points): more transparency and control for users.</p>\n<p>What's in an algorithm?</p>\n<p>The Facebook you experience today, with a constant flow of algorithmically-picked information and ads, is a vastly different social network from what it was in its early days. In 2004, when Facebook first launched as a site for college students, it was both simpler and more tedious to navigate: If you wanted to see what friends were posting, you had to go visit their profiles one at a time.</p>\n<p>This began to shift in a major way in 2006, when Facebook introduced the News Feed, giving users a fire hose of updates from family, friends, and that guy they went on a couple bad dates with. From the start, Facebook reportedly used algorithms to filter content users saw in the News Feed. In a 2015 Time Magazine story, the company's chief product officer, Chris Cox, said curation was necessary even then because there was too much information to show it all to every user. Over time, Facebook's algorithms evolved, and users became accustomed to algorithms determining how Facebook content would be presented.</p>\n<p>An algorithm is a set of mathematical steps or instructions, particularly for a computer, telling it what to do with certain inputs to produce certain outputs. You can think of it as roughly akin to a recipe, where the ingredients are inputs and the final dish is the output. On Facebook and other social media sites, however, you and your actions — what you write or images you post — are the input. What the social network shows you — whether it's a post from your best friend or an ad for camping gear — is the output.</p>\n<p>At their best, these algorithms can help personalize feeds so users discover new people and content that matches their interests based on prior activity. At its worst, as Haugen and others have pointed out, they run the risk of directing people down troubling rabbit holes that can expose them to toxic content and misinformation. In either case, they keep people scrolling longer, potentially helping Facebook make more money by showing users more ads.</p>\n<p>Many algorithms work in concert to create the experience you see on Facebook, Instagram, and elsewhere online. This can make it even more complicated to tease out what's going on inside such systems, particularly in a large company like Facebook where multiple teams build various algorithms.</p>\n<p>\"If some higher power were to go to Facebook and say, 'Fix the algorithm in XY,' that's really hard because they've become really complex systems with many many inputs, many weights, and they're like multiple systems working together,\" said Hilary Ross, a senior program manager at Harvard University's Berkman Klein Center for Internet &amp; Society and manager of its Institute for Rebooting Social Media.</p>\n<p>More transparency</p>\n<p>There are ways to make these processes clearer and give users more say in how they work, though. Margaret Mitchell, who leads artificial intelligence ethics for AI model builder Hugging Face and formerly co-led Google's ethical AI team, thinks this could be done by allowing you to view details about why you're seeing what you're seeing on a social network, such as in response to the posts, ads, and other things you look at and interact with.</p>\n<p>\"You can even imagine having some say in it. You might be able to select preferences for the kinds of things you want to be optimized for you,\" she said, such as how often you want to see content from your immediate family, high school friends, or baby pictures. All of those things may change over time. Why not let users control them?</p>\n<p>Transparency is key, she said, because it incentivizes good behavior from the social networks.</p>\n<p>Another way social networks could be pushed in the direction of increased transparency is by increasing independent auditing of their algorithmic practices, according to Sasha Costanza-Chock, director of research and design at the Algorithmic Justice League. They envision this as including fully independent researchers, investigative journalists, or people inside regulatory bodies — not social media companies themselves, or companies they hire — who have the knowledge, skills, and legal authority to demand access to algorithmic systems in order to ensure laws aren't violated and best practices are followed.</p>\n<p>James Mickens, a computer science professor at Harvard and co-director of the Berkman Klein Center's Institute for Rebooting Social Media, suggests looking to the ways elections can be audited without revealing private information about voters (such as who each person voted for) for insights about how algorithms may be audited and reformed. He thinks that could give some insights for building an audit system that would allow people outside of Facebook to provide oversight while protecting sensitive data.</p>\n<p>Other metrics for success</p>\n<p>A big hurdle, experts say, to making meaningful improvements is social networks' current focus on the importance of engagement, or the amount of time users spend scrolling, clicking, and otherwise interacting with social media posts and ads.</p>\n<p>Haugen revealed internal documents from Facebook that show the social network is aware that its \"core product mechanics, such as virality, recommendations and optimizing for engagement, are a significant part\" of why hate speech and misinformation \"flourish\" on its platform.</p>\n<p>Changing this is tricky, experts said, though several agreed that it may involve considering the feelings users have when using social media and not just the amount of time they spend using it.</p>\n<p>\"Engagement is not a synonym for good mental health,\" said Mickens.</p>\n<p>Can algorithms truly help fix Facebook's problems, though? Mickens, at least, is hopeful the answer is yes. He does think they can be optimized more toward the public interest. \"The question is: What will convince these companies to start thinking this way?\" he said.</p>\n<p>In the past, some might have said it would require pressure from advertisers whose dollars support these platforms. But in her testimony, Haugen seemed to bet on a different answer: pressure from Congress.</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>Facebook's success was built on algorithms.

They envision this as including fully independent researchers, investigative journalists, or people inside regulatory bodies — not social media companies themselves, or companies they hire — who have the knowledge, skills, and legal authority to demand access to algorithmic systems in order to ensure laws aren't violated and best practices are followed.\nJames Mickens, a computer science professor at Harvard and co-director of the Berkman Klein Center's Institute for Rebooting Social Media, suggests looking to the ways elections can be audited without revealing private information about voters (such as who each person voted for) for insights about how algorithms may be audited and reformed. He thinks that could give some insights for building an audit system that would allow people outside of Facebook to provide oversight while protecting sensitive data.\nOther metrics for success\nA big hurdle, experts say, to making meaningful improvements is social networks' current focus on the importance of engagement, or the amount of time users spend scrolling, clicking, and otherwise interacting with social media posts and ads.\nHaugen revealed internal documents from Facebook that show the social network is aware that its \"core product mechanics, such as virality, recommendations and optimizing for engagement, are a significant part\" of why hate speech and misinformation \"flourish\" on its platform.\nChanging this is tricky, experts said, though several agreed that it may involve considering the feelings users have when using social media and not just the amount of time they spend using it.\n\"Engagement is not a synonym for good mental health,\" said Mickens.\nCan algorithms truly help fix Facebook's problems, though? Mickens, at least, is hopeful the answer is yes. He does think they can be optimized more toward the public interest. \"The question is: What will convince these companies to start thinking this way?\" he said.\nIn the past, some might have said it would require pressure from advertisers whose dollars support these platforms. But in her testimony, Haugen seemed to bet on a different answer: pressure from Congress.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":852464469,"gmtCreate":1635297764603,"gmtModify":1635298053656,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIDI\">$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$</a>Wow","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIDI\">$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$</a>Wow","text":"$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$Wow","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20a908098283c4aedeea622c7d000bea","width":"1125","height":"2196"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/852464469","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":367,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":824400657,"gmtCreate":1634343543686,"gmtModify":1634343543891,"author":{"id":"4088146696976370","authorId":"4088146696976370","name":"bengkoon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee8ec0fb6d2ba6a8495d1b92f45a46fe","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohh&nbsp;","listText":"Ohh&nbsp;","text":"Ohh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/824400657","repostId":"1108385230","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108385230","pubTimestamp":1634310806,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1108385230?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-15 23:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Manila Casino Goes Public in $2.6 Billion Deal With Ader SPAC","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108385230","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Okada Manila, one of the biggest casino resorts in the Philippines, is going public through a merger","content":"<p>Okada Manila, one of the biggest casino resorts in the Philippines, is going public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company led by former casino analyst Jason Ader.

Over that time, the index has gained more than 240%, bolstering the case for investors willing to step in during episodes of weakness.\nDip buying has already been in evidence. The S&P 500 bounced back over 1% after Monday, when a sharp sell-off saw the S&P 500 end more than 5% below its closing record high, in its biggest drawdown so far in 2021. The buyers included retail investors, who have purchased an average of $1.2 billion in stocks per day so far this week, up from their average, according to Vanda Research.\nSome worry, however, that buying the latest dip may come with more near-term risks than before as investors face a bevy of headwinds, from the looming unwind of the Federal Reserve’s $120 billion a month government bond-buying program to a protracted battle among lawmakers to raise the U.S. debt ceiling.\nAnalysts at BofA Global Research on Tuesday cautioned that “the coast appears far from clear” as the Fed prepares to wind down the easy money policies that had helped the market double from last year’s lows as early as August. BofA’s target on the S&P 500 is 4,250, some 2% below Tuesday’s close.\nThe risks of a more hawkish Fed also concerned analysts at Morgan Stanley, who on Monday said the S&P 500 could fall as much as 20% if the economy and earnings “cool off” as the Fed tightens.\nShawn Snyder, head of investment strategy at Citi US Wealth Management, said a nasty fight among U.S. lawmakers to raise the country’s debt ceiling or throw the nation into default is currently the key near-term risk equities face.\n“The buy-the-dip strategy still works but there (are) very specific things that are lingering that need to be cleared first,” Snyder said.\nAdditional risks analysts run the gamut from a recent surge in energy prices to worries over the meltdown of heavily indebted Chinese property developer China Evergrande Group. The S&P 500 is up 15.7% so far this year.\nBuying the dip has “certainly worked for people over the last 10 years,” said JJ Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade in Chicago. However, “at some point things stop working, especially when people do them time after time.”\nOne scenario outlined by Morgan Stanley’s strategists sees the S&P 500 falling by about 10% as the Fed tightens monetary policy due to rising inflationary pressures. In a second scenario, the economy and earnings slow as the Fed tightens, leading to a 20% swoon.\n“Bottom line: faster tapering with a greater deceleration in growth implies a greater than 10% correction,” Morgan Stanley analysts said.\nDespite those worries, however, historical evidence shows that a market powered by strong momentum tends to keep rising. The S&P 500 has notched a positive fourth quarter nearly 80% of the time in years during which it has climbed more than 12.5% in the first nine months, according to LPL’s Detrick, delivering a median fourth-quarter gain of 5.2%.\nSeasonal trends also could provide reasons to buy sooner rather than later. While September lived up to its historical reputation of being the weakest month with a 4.8% decline, October is traditionally stronger, with the seventh-highest average gains for the S&P 500 since 1950, according to the Stock Trader’s Almanac.\nNovember ranks second in monthly performance, with the index rising 1.7% on average, and December third, with equities rising 1.5%, according to the almanac.\nGoldman Sachs is among the banks calling for more gains. The bank’s strategist earlier this week issued a note with a year-end target of 4,700 for the S&P 500, about 8% above where the index closed on Tuesday.

Now, credit has become one of the firm’s fastest-growing segments, part of a broad shift under the leadership of President Jonathan Gray.</p>\n<p>Assets under management in the unit, which makes corporate loans backing leveraged buyouts for other private-equity firms, jumped 22% to $188 billion this year through Sept. 30. Private-equity assets under management rose 17% to $231.5 billion over the same period.</p>\n<p>Blackstone is expanding in the space by launching low-fee funds and selling them to wealthy individuals who might not qualify for products tailored to institutions like pension plans. The strategy replicated a move that Mr. Grayused to turbocharge the growthof the firm’s real-estate investment trust, called BREIT.</p>\n<p>It also marks a culture shift, as the hedge-fund operations that once lent Blackstone its Wall Street cachet fall out of favor. And large money managers that traditionally focused on private equity see a bigger opportunity in debt, where the addressable market could be as large as $40 trillion.</p>\n<p>The resurgent credit business should help Blackstone in the race for investor dollars against its principal competitors, includingApollo Global ManagementInc.,Ares ManagementCorp.and KKR &amp; Co.</p>\n<p>Debt specialists Apollo and Ares have pledged to boost assets to $1 trillion and $500 billion, respectively, in coming years, while KKR more than doubled its credit business this year, primarily by purchasing insurer Global Atlantic Financial Group Ltd. Only Ares grew its own credit business as fast as Blackstone this year.</p>\n<p>Several large credit firms vied to win the lead role providing $2.6 billion of loans this year for private-equity firm Thoma Bravo LP’s leveraged buyout of Stamps.com Inc. Blackstone walked away with the top spot by offering to backstop the entire amount, Dwight Scott, head of Blackstone Credit, said.</p>\n<p>The firm historically operated in debt markets through GSO Capital Partners, a hedge-fund manager it acquired in 2008 that was known for large, aggressive and lucrative trades. GSO’s founders— Bennett Goodman, Tripp Smith and Doug Ostrover —all left Blackstone in recent years. The credit business jettisoned the GSO name last year and has shut its hedge funds.</p>\n<p>Blackstone’s separate hedge-fund solutions business has shrunk in importance to 11% of total assets, down from 19.4% five years ago, according to earnings reports.

Now, credit has become one of the firm’s fastest-growing segments, part of a broad shift under the leadership of President Jonathan Gray.\nAssets under management in the unit, which makes corporate loans backing leveraged buyouts for other private-equity firms, jumped 22% to $188 billion this year through Sept. 30. Private-equity assets under management rose 17% to $231.5 billion over the same period.\nBlackstone is expanding in the space by launching low-fee funds and selling them to wealthy individuals who might not qualify for products tailored to institutions like pension plans. The strategy replicated a move that Mr. Grayused to turbocharge the growthof the firm’s real-estate investment trust, called BREIT.\nIt also marks a culture shift, as the hedge-fund operations that once lent Blackstone its Wall Street cachet fall out of favor. And large money managers that traditionally focused on private equity see a bigger opportunity in debt, where the addressable market could be as large as $40 trillion.\nThe resurgent credit business should help Blackstone in the race for investor dollars against its principal competitors, includingApollo Global ManagementInc.,Ares ManagementCorp.and KKR & Co.\nDebt specialists Apollo and Ares have pledged to boost assets to $1 trillion and $500 billion, respectively, in coming years, while KKR more than doubled its credit business this year, primarily by purchasing insurer Global Atlantic Financial Group Ltd. Only Ares grew its own credit business as fast as Blackstone this year.\nSeveral large credit firms vied to win the lead role providing $2.6 billion of loans this year for private-equity firm Thoma Bravo LP’s leveraged buyout of Stamps.com Inc. Blackstone walked away with the top spot by offering to backstop the entire amount, Dwight Scott, head of Blackstone Credit, said.\nThe firm historically operated in debt markets through GSO Capital Partners, a hedge-fund manager it acquired in 2008 that was known for large, aggressive and lucrative trades. GSO’s founders— Bennett Goodman, Tripp Smith and Doug Ostrover —all left Blackstone in recent years. The credit business jettisoned the GSO name last year and has shut its hedge funds.\nBlackstone’s separate hedge-fund solutions business has shrunk in importance to 11% of total assets, down from 19.4% five years ago, according to earnings reports. John McCormick, co-head of Blackstone’s funds-of-hedge-funds business, told colleagues last month thathe plans to resign.\nThe hedge-fund solutions unit’s “revenues and earnings have doubled in the last three years and the business will continue to expand through new offerings and senior hires,” a Blackstone spokeswoman said.\nThe rebranded Blackstone Credit is aggressively marketing less-risky, cheaper funds to individual investors.\n“It’s all about de-risking the portfolio,” said Mr. Scott.

Psychologically, it feels much better to buy a beaten-down stock -- but sometimes those stocks have been beaten down for a reason.</p>\n<p>Many of my most rewarding investments are stocks that I've bought repeatedly, even as the share prices skyrocketed. One great example is <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP). Over the last 5 years, the share price has surged 2,930%, but I still think this stock is worth buying today.</p>\n<p>Here are five reasons Shopify belongs in your portfolio.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9ffe9f07ed89a6aa55740bef8dbc9be1\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Shopify offers an omnichannel commerce platform</h2>\n<p>Shopify makes commerce easier. Its software helps merchants manage their businesses across physical and digital storefronts, integrating transactions from brick-and-mortar locations, online marketplaces, social media shops, and custom websites into a single point-of-sale system. Shopify supplements its software with services like payment processing, discounted shipping, and financing. In short, its platform is an end-to-end solution for modern omnichannel commerce.</p>\n<p>That value proposition resonates with merchants, giving them the flexibility to support any customer experiences (e.g. buy online, curbside pickup, shop in-store) on any device or platform. As a result, Shopify has onboarded new clients at a rapid clip, and its platform now powers over 1.7 million&nbsp;businesses worldwide.</p>\n<p>Moreover, while Shopify remains a good solution for small- and medium-size businesses, its platform is also gaining traction outside of this core demographic. Shopify Plus, a more flexible commerce solution designed for larger sellers, has seen adoption by over 10,000 enterprises, including Fortune 500 companies like <b>Netflix</b>, <b>PepsiCo</b>, and <b>Unilever</b>.</p>\n<h2>2. Shopify's competitive edge is ironclad</h2>\n<p>Shopify is the most popular e-commerce platform in the U.S., holding a 29%&nbsp;market share. The breadth and scale of its ecosystem differentiates it from website builders like <b>Wix</b>, its ease of use sets it apart from WooCommerce, and its focus on helping businesses grow their own brand, which gives it an edge over marketplaces like <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p>To reinforce that advantage, the company is building the Shopify Fulfillment Network (SFN), a system of robot-powered warehouses that will span the United States. Once complete, this infrastructure will allow Shopify to pick, package, and ship products on behalf of its merchants while leveraging the data created across its platform to optimize supply chains and streamline logistics.</p>\n<p>Specifically, the company will lean on artificial intelligence for demand forecasting, smart inventory allocation, and intelligent order routing, simplifying the fulfillment process for sellers and providing fast, reliable delivery for buyers.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/65868c801cfbbcb2ddc969efa5ecc7a0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>3. Shopify benefits from optionality in digital payments</h2>\n<p>Shopify benefits from optionality, meaning it has the flexibility to enter adjacent industries. However, many investors overlook this quality, focusing instead on its role in e-commerce.</p>\n<p>However, Shopify recently announced that Shop Pay, its accelerated checkout solution, will be available on both<b> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a></b> and <b>Alphabet</b>'s Google later in 2021. This means all sellers on those platforms, even those that don't use Shopify, will be able to accept payments through Shop Pay -- the highest-converting&nbsp;checkout solution on the internet, according to management.</p>\n<p>This may not seem like a big deal, and it's not -- yet. But years ago, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MELI\">MercadoLibre</a></b> made a similar move with its own fintech platform, Mercado Pago. And today, Mercado Pago actually handles more payments from third-party sellers than from the MercadoLibre marketplace, demonstrating its widespread adoption in Latin America.</p>\n<p>If Shopify achieves similar success, Shop Pay could become a powerful growth engine, helping the company pivot more completely into the digital payments space.</p>\n<h2>4. Shopify has a solid balance sheet</h2>\n<p>Optionality isn't Shopify's only underrated asset. It also has $7.8 billion&nbsp;in cash and short-term securities on its balance sheet, compared with just $910 million&nbsp;in long-term debt. That pile of cash means Shopify can weather economic downturns without selling new shares or issuing debt, and it affords the company the flexibility to invest in growth opportunities as they arise.</p>\n<p>For example, Shopify recently signed an exclusive partnership with <b>Global-E Online</b>, a company that simplifies cross-border e-commerce for merchants. As part of that deal, Shopify has purchased 9.7 million&nbsp;shares (6.7%) of Global-E common stock. But down the road, Shopify could acquire the company outright, a move that would allow it to monetize e-commerce beyond its own platform.</p>\n<p>Of course, that's pure speculation, but the point is this: Shopify's solid financial position gives the company an edge.</p>\n<h2>5. Strong financial performance</h2>\n<p>No discussion about Shopify would be complete without mentioning its impressive financial performance. As online shopping has become more popular, merchants have flocked to Shopify's platform, helping the company grow its top and bottom lines quickly.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q2 2018 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q2 2021 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>CAGR</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Revenue</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$853.6 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$3.9 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>65%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>($31.5 million)</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$507.0 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>N/A</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Source: YCharts. TTM = trailing-12-months. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, I think Shopify should be able to maintain this momentum.

Psychologically, it feels much better to buy a beaten-down stock -- but sometimes those stocks have been beaten down for a reason.\nMany of my most rewarding investments are stocks that I've bought repeatedly, even as the share prices skyrocketed. One great example is Shopify (NYSE:SHOP). Over the last 5 years, the share price has surged 2,930%, but I still think this stock is worth buying today.\nHere are five reasons Shopify belongs in your portfolio.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Shopify offers an omnichannel commerce platform\nShopify makes commerce easier. Its software helps merchants manage their businesses across physical and digital storefronts, integrating transactions from brick-and-mortar locations, online marketplaces, social media shops, and custom websites into a single point-of-sale system. Shopify supplements its software with services like payment processing, discounted shipping, and financing. In short, its platform is an end-to-end solution for modern omnichannel commerce.\nThat value proposition resonates with merchants, giving them the flexibility to support any customer experiences (e.g. buy online, curbside pickup, shop in-store) on any device or platform. As a result, Shopify has onboarded new clients at a rapid clip, and its platform now powers over 1.7 million businesses worldwide.\nMoreover, while Shopify remains a good solution for small- and medium-size businesses, its platform is also gaining traction outside of this core demographic. Shopify Plus, a more flexible commerce solution designed for larger sellers, has seen adoption by over 10,000 enterprises, including Fortune 500 companies like Netflix, PepsiCo, and Unilever.\n2. Shopify's competitive edge is ironclad\nShopify is the most popular e-commerce platform in the U.S., holding a 29% market share. The breadth and scale of its ecosystem differentiates it from website builders like Wix, its ease of use sets it apart from WooCommerce, and its focus on helping businesses grow their own brand, which gives it an edge over marketplaces like Amazon.\nTo reinforce that advantage, the company is building the Shopify Fulfillment Network (SFN), a system of robot-powered warehouses that will span the United States. Once complete, this infrastructure will allow Shopify to pick, package, and ship products on behalf of its merchants while leveraging the data created across its platform to optimize supply chains and streamline logistics.\nSpecifically, the company will lean on artificial intelligence for demand forecasting, smart inventory allocation, and intelligent order routing, simplifying the fulfillment process for sellers and providing fast, reliable delivery for buyers.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n3. Shopify benefits from optionality in digital payments\nShopify benefits from optionality, meaning it has the flexibility to enter adjacent industries. However, many investors overlook this quality, focusing instead on its role in e-commerce.\nHowever, Shopify recently announced that Shop Pay, its accelerated checkout solution, will be available on both Facebook and Alphabet's Google later in 2021. This means all sellers on those platforms, even those that don't use Shopify, will be able to accept payments through Shop Pay -- the highest-converting checkout solution on the internet, according to management.\nThis may not seem like a big deal, and it's not -- yet. But years ago, MercadoLibre made a similar move with its own fintech platform, Mercado Pago. And today, Mercado Pago actually handles more payments from third-party sellers than from the MercadoLibre marketplace, demonstrating its widespread adoption in Latin America.\nIf Shopify achieves similar success, Shop Pay could become a powerful growth engine, helping the company pivot more completely into the digital payments space.\n4. Shopify has a solid balance sheet\nOptionality isn't Shopify's only underrated asset. It also has $7.8 billion in cash and short-term securities on its balance sheet, compared with just $910 million in long-term debt. That pile of cash means Shopify can weather economic downturns without selling new shares or issuing debt, and it affords the company the flexibility to invest in growth opportunities as they arise.\nFor example, Shopify recently signed an exclusive partnership with Global-E Online, a company that simplifies cross-border e-commerce for merchants. As part of that deal, Shopify has purchased 9.7 million shares (6.7%) of Global-E common stock. But down the road, Shopify could acquire the company outright, a move that would allow it to monetize e-commerce beyond its own platform.\nOf course, that's pure speculation, but the point is this: Shopify's solid financial position gives the company an edge.\n5. Strong financial performance\nNo discussion about Shopify would be complete without mentioning its impressive financial performance. As online shopping has become more popular, merchants have flocked to Shopify's platform, helping the company grow its top and bottom lines quickly.\n\n\n\nMetric\nQ2 2018 (TTM)\nQ2 2021 (TTM)\nCAGR\n\n\n\n\nRevenue\n$853.6 million\n$3.9 billion\n65%\n\n\nFree cash flow\n($31.5 million)\n$507.0 million\nN/A\n\n\n\nSource: YCharts. TTM = trailing-12-months. CAGR = compound annual growth rate.\nLooking ahead, I think Shopify should be able to maintain this momentum. Management currently puts its addressable market at $153 billion, but global e-commerce is still a relatively small portion of total retail spend, meaning that market opportunity will only get bigger. More importantly, Shopify has positioned itself as an industry leader, and it still has plenty of growth levers left to pull. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see the company achieve a $1 trillion market cap a decade down the road.\nThat's why it's not too late to buy this stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":415,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
