near-term prospects.</li>\n <li>Even so, current lofty valuation leaves little room for upside investment potential.</li>\n <li>I remain slightly bearish on the company's prospects.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Tesla (TSLA), the undoubted leader in the electric vehicle market, has had the share price run of a lifetime, rising nearly 1,500% over the past 24 months as markets rallied for the post-pandemic surge and the company continued reporting solid sales and income growth.</p>\n<p>I've argued in the past that, although the company has several strong long-term growth avenues to pursue, their long-term prospects are dimmed compared to what analysts have projected, given the amount of competition emerging in the EV industry over the course of the next few years.</p>\n<p>But that's a whole other thing than the company's near-term prospects, which I believe are grand relative to some of the established players shifting over to electric vehicle production, as I've highlighted inmy recent articleon Ford (F). These advantages mean that the company will remain superior in the near term when it comes to profitability and diversity within the EV industry and can best utilize the rapid growth rate the entire industry is expecting.</p>\n<p>The Long-Term Headwinds Haven't Changed</p>\n<p>As I've been highlighting for several months now,Tesla's long-term prospects have dimmedsince other automobile companies like Ford and General Motors (GM) in the United States, NIO (NIO) and others in the Asia-Pacific region and other European and South Korean automobile manufacturers moved up their electrification process timelines. The main reason for this is that these companies have very solid brand recognition, and individuals who have owned these models for years or decades have the option to opt for an electric version of those; they choose those over trying out a new untested model a majority of the time.</p>\n<p>With companies like Ford introducing the all-electric F-150 and others, it's unclear how Tesla can maintain this high growth rate beyond 2024 as these models are expected to hit the streets and begin capturing back market share away from Tesla and other current models. Other factors like Tesla opening up their charging station network to all EV models, as well as a massive capital injection into EV charging stations in the most recent infrastructure spending bill in the United States, will surely help Tesla's income when it charges for the use, but it also helps other companies overcome the main hurdle of widespread adoption - clearing a pathway for more and more EV models to emerge.</p>\n<p>The Short-Term Tailwinds Are Emerging</p>\n<p>Tesla has several near-term tailwinds which will keep way ahead of any competition for the next 12 to 24 months. These mostly all boil down to profitability but also focus on various business model advantages.</p>\n<p>1. A positive profit margin: While other companies are just now beginning to invest in transforming their manufacturing facilities from fossil fuel intake engines to electric vehicle production, Tesla has done this and way more efficiently. Since they've built these from scratch, they've mostly automated the process and thus enjoy a much higher profit margin. Other companies won't see a profit per vehicle for years to come.</p>\n<p>2. Surging battery manufacturing: Although other companies have a mixed position on whether to manufacture their own batteries or set up joint ventures with existing companies, Tesla has been churning out batteries for years and have, as similar with the vehicle manufacturing process, nearly fully automated the process to maximize profits per unit.</p>\n<p>3. International manufacturing: Other companies, thus far, have focused on restructuring and transforming current assembly plants in the United States and will likely take several more years before they do so for other international facilities, which means they will need to spend a fortune shipping these new vehicles around the world to the EMEA and the Asia-Pacific. Tesla, on the other hand, has manufacturing facilities in the United States and in China and is set to open their plant in Germany as well as being in final development stages of an India plant, which will allow them to access a much larger market.</p>\n<p>4. Charging stations advantage: Although the new infrastructure bill in the United States, as well as massive investments in countries like Japan and China, are certain to put in hundreds of thousands of new EV charging stations across the globe, this will take time. So far, only Tesla has a real robust charging network across the world. A recent development, which does have negative elements to it as mentioned earlier, has a positive near term one - they will be raking in net profits from allowing other electric vehicles to charge on their network. This means that they'll likely be profiting from each vehicle their competitors churn out, at least until the scaling up of non-Tesla charging stations takes place.</p>\n<p>5. \"Other Business\" growth rate: While other automobile companies are still spending hand over fist on their other models and products, Tesla enjoys being only in high-growth industries like SolarCity's solar panels and battery sales. As I'll expand on in the next segment, they also don't have near-term or long-term financial obligations from these \"other business\" segments as establishment automobile companies have.</p>\n<p>Balance Sheet Advantages</p>\n<p>Although some elements of their balance sheet advantage are set to help them in the long run as well, they're mostly advantages for the short term since once these other companies begin making a profit from their EV sales - a lot of this will be reversed.</p>\n<p>Tesla's main advantage, as mentioned earlier, is that they're actually raking in cash from each car they sell, allowing them to use that cash to continue and set up more manufacturing facilities and invest in battery technology, solar technology and production increases. This is contrary to other automobile companies which have high financial obligations to their other business segments like pensions and leases. This will further aid the company's overall profit margin, while they don't struggle with such obligations.</p>\n<p>These other companies will need to use profits and cash from their existing legacy business segments to pay for their losses on each vehicle they produce, hurting their overall valuation moving forward.</p>\n<p>Although Tesla has $6.9 billion inlong-term debt, a factor which kept many investors on the sidelines as debt racked up, they currently hold just under $16.3 billion in cash and equivalents, making their net debt position negative. They've been using the cash to pay down their debt as well,reducing their interest expense burdenfrom almost $800 million in 2020 to just over $500 million in 2021. Tesla paid back $15 billion in debt in 2021 for a net debt reduction of $6 billion. There's very little doubt that other automobile companies will be forced to take on more debt to finance increased production and in this raising rate environment, that can snowball.</p>\n<p>Tesla is set to seecash flowof around $10 billion annually whereas a company like Ford has been fluctuating between a net positive and negative cash flow status for the past few years, and that's not expected to change through 2025 as they continue to increase investments in the electrification of their vehicles.</p>\n<p>What About Current Valuation</p>\n<p>Analystscurrently expect the company to report EPS of $5.38 for 2021 and grow at a fast pace to reach EPS of $10.33 for 2024. As I mentioned in my earlier article, I believe that, given comparison with other major automobile companies, the company is fairly valued at around 75x forward earnings.</p>\n<p>I do, however, believe that some of the current competition expectations are overblown for the near term, as I've been mentioning throughout the entire article. Therefore, I do believe that Tesla will outperform current expectations at least through 2023. This means that a 75x forward earnings multiple is the ground base for appropriate valuation, I believe.</p>\n<p>This presents the following fair value, with the implied increase potential:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/052968e079d7fe8419e4790de451c9fd\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"201\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">As you can see, this means that Tesla is almost 40% overvalued relative to earnings expectations, even if they overcome them by as much as 20%. However, given that these expectations are likely to be beaten, I don't believe that shorting the company is a good idea, but one thing that is worth looking out for is a general market correction.</p>\n<p>The Biggest Risk Of Owning Tesla</p>\n<p>The biggest risk with owning Tesla right now is that, in a general market correction, which can happen at any moment as the post-pandemic trade is winding down, companies with lofty expectations tend to fall the most as fair value is sought beyond what their potential is way down the line.</p>\n<p>I don't believe that shorting Tesla is the right approach, even though my disclosures down below and in previous article state that I am, given general market exposure. I am short simply because I don't believe that much upwards potential is there, whilst downward potential in a market correction is vast. So, given that I am mostly long, this short is a general portfolio hedge while I reduce positions in case of a correction.</p>\n<p>In Conclusion</p>\n<p>Tesla has several positive catalysts which should keep them on top of the EV industry growth roster for the next 24 to 36 months, while other companies struggle to make even a single penny on their new vehicles. These are set, I believe, to allow them to beat earnings expectations for that time period.</p>\n<p>Even so, their long-term competitive pressures remain high and as I stated in my previous article - their long-term growth prospects will continue to dim as time moves on.</p>\n<p>Even with these positive near-term advantages, I still believe that the company is overvalued by as much as 40%, and although I do not favor shorting the company for this overvaluation, I remain slightly bearish on their long-term prospects and neutral to slightly bullish on their near-term one.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The main reason for this is that these companies have very solid brand recognition, and individuals who have owned these models for years or decades have the option to opt for an electric version of those; they choose those over trying out a new untested model a majority of the time.\nWith companies like Ford introducing the all-electric F-150 and others, it's unclear how Tesla can maintain this high growth rate beyond 2024 as these models are expected to hit the streets and begin capturing back market share away from Tesla and other current models. Other factors like Tesla opening up their charging station network to all EV models, as well as a massive capital injection into EV charging stations in the most recent infrastructure spending bill in the United States, will surely help Tesla's income when it charges for the use, but it also helps other companies overcome the main hurdle of widespread adoption - clearing a pathway for more and more EV models to emerge.\nThe Short-Term Tailwinds Are Emerging\nTesla has several near-term tailwinds which will keep way ahead of any competition for the next 12 to 24 months. These mostly all boil down to profitability but also focus on various business model advantages.\n1. A positive profit margin: While other companies are just now beginning to invest in transforming their manufacturing facilities from fossil fuel intake engines to electric vehicle production, Tesla has done this and way more efficiently. Since they've built these from scratch, they've mostly automated the process and thus enjoy a much higher profit margin. Other companies won't see a profit per vehicle for years to come.\n2. Surging battery manufacturing: Although other companies have a mixed position on whether to manufacture their own batteries or set up joint ventures with existing companies, Tesla has been churning out batteries for years and have, as similar with the vehicle manufacturing process, nearly fully automated the process to maximize profits per unit.\n3. International manufacturing: Other companies, thus far, have focused on restructuring and transforming current assembly plants in the United States and will likely take several more years before they do so for other international facilities, which means they will need to spend a fortune shipping these new vehicles around the world to the EMEA and the Asia-Pacific. Tesla, on the other hand, has manufacturing facilities in the United States and in China and is set to open their plant in Germany as well as being in final development stages of an India plant, which will allow them to access a much larger market.\n4. Charging stations advantage: Although the new infrastructure bill in the United States, as well as massive investments in countries like Japan and China, are certain to put in hundreds of thousands of new EV charging stations across the globe, this will take time. So far, only Tesla has a real robust charging network across the world. A recent development, which does have negative elements to it as mentioned earlier, has a positive near term one - they will be raking in net profits from allowing other electric vehicles to charge on their network. This means that they'll likely be profiting from each vehicle their competitors churn out, at least until the scaling up of non-Tesla charging stations takes place.\n5. \"Other Business\" growth rate: While other automobile companies are still spending hand over fist on their other models and products, Tesla enjoys being only in high-growth industries like SolarCity's solar panels and battery sales. As I'll expand on in the next segment, they also don't have near-term or long-term financial obligations from these \"other business\" segments as establishment automobile companies have.\nBalance Sheet Advantages\nAlthough some elements of their balance sheet advantage are set to help them in the long run as well, they're mostly advantages for the short term since once these other companies begin making a profit from their EV sales - a lot of this will be reversed.\nTesla's main advantage, as mentioned earlier, is that they're actually raking in cash from each car they sell, allowing them to use that cash to continue and set up more manufacturing facilities and invest in battery technology, solar technology and production increases. This is contrary to other automobile companies which have high financial obligations to their other business segments like pensions and leases. This will further aid the company's overall profit margin, while they don't struggle with such obligations.\nThese other companies will need to use profits and cash from their existing legacy business segments to pay for their losses on each vehicle they produce, hurting their overall valuation moving forward.\nAlthough Tesla has $6.9 billion inlong-term debt, a factor which kept many investors on the sidelines as debt racked up, they currently hold just under $16.3 billion in cash and equivalents, making their net debt position negative. They've been using the cash to pay down their debt as well,reducing their interest expense burdenfrom almost $800 million in 2020 to just over $500 million in 2021. Tesla paid back $15 billion in debt in 2021 for a net debt reduction of $6 billion. There's very little doubt that other automobile companies will be forced to take on more debt to finance increased production and in this raising rate environment, that can snowball.\nTesla is set to seecash flowof around $10 billion annually whereas a company like Ford has been fluctuating between a net positive and negative cash flow status for the past few years, and that's not expected to change through 2025 as they continue to increase investments in the electrification of their vehicles.\nWhat About Current Valuation\nAnalystscurrently expect the company to report EPS of $5.38 for 2021 and grow at a fast pace to reach EPS of $10.33 for 2024. As I mentioned in my earlier article, I believe that, given comparison with other major automobile companies, the company is fairly valued at around 75x forward earnings.\nI do, however, believe that some of the current competition expectations are overblown for the near term, as I've been mentioning throughout the entire article. Therefore, I do believe that Tesla will outperform current expectations at least through 2023. This means that a 75x forward earnings multiple is the ground base for appropriate valuation, I believe.\nThis presents the following fair value, with the implied increase potential:\nAs you can see, this means that Tesla is almost 40% overvalued relative to earnings expectations, even if they overcome them by as much as 20%. However, given that these expectations are likely to be beaten, I don't believe that shorting the company is a good idea, but one thing that is worth looking out for is a general market correction.\nThe Biggest Risk Of Owning Tesla\nThe biggest risk with owning Tesla right now is that, in a general market correction, which can happen at any moment as the post-pandemic trade is winding down, companies with lofty expectations tend to fall the most as fair value is sought beyond what their potential is way down the line.\nI don't believe that shorting Tesla is the right approach, even though my disclosures down below and in previous article state that I am, given general market exposure. I am short simply because I don't believe that much upwards potential is there, whilst downward potential in a market correction is vast. So, given that I am mostly long, this short is a general portfolio hedge while I reduce positions in case of a correction.\nIn Conclusion\nTesla has several positive catalysts which should keep them on top of the EV industry growth roster for the next 24 to 36 months, while other companies struggle to make even a single penny on their new vehicles. These are set, I believe, to allow them to beat earnings expectations for that time period.\nEven so, their long-term competitive pressures remain high and as I stated in my previous article - their long-term growth prospects will continue to dim as time moves on.\nEven with these positive near-term advantages, I still believe that the company is overvalued by as much as 40%, and although I do not favor shorting the company for this overvaluation, I remain slightly bearish on their long-term prospects and neutral to slightly bullish on their near-term one.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":806726117,"gmtCreate":1627695434839,"gmtModify":1631887074431,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>buy moreee","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>buy moreee","text":"$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$buy moreee","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c53f8ee1dc8e464bfd2e0dd7b2ef19f","width":"1284","height":"2223"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/806726117","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":809186241,"gmtCreate":1627352501483,"gmtModify":1631887074565,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>Nothing to panic","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>Nothing to panic","text":"$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$Nothing to panic","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53e858e14bc5773ddd20f7d994600991","width":"1284","height":"2223"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/809186241","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":800247147,"gmtCreate":1627306977089,"gmtModify":1633766311790,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy during dip","listText":"Buy during dip","text":"Buy during dip","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/800247147","repostId":"1191789958","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191789958","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":1627306293,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1191789958?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-26 21:31","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 slips from a record ahead of megacap tech earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191789958","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The S&P 500 slipped from a record high on Monday ahead of a busy week of earnings reports from technology's heaviest hitters.The broad equity benchmark dipped 0.1% after hitting a record closing high in the previous session.

On Thursday, the Commerce Department will report second-quarter GDP data.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":524,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":175273297,"gmtCreate":1627038444619,"gmtModify":1633768575004,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy buy ","listText":"Buy buy buy ","text":"Buy buy buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/175273297","repostId":"1175079456","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175079456","pubTimestamp":1627036648,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1175079456?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-23 18:37","market":"uk","language":"en","title":"Why I’m buying the FTSE 100 now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175079456","media":"The Motley Fool","summary":"According to IG, between 1984 and 2019, the FTSE 100 rose by 654%.

which has thrived during the pandemic as online shoppers look for easier repayment options.</p>\n<p>The U.S. tech giant will use Goldman Sachs, its partner since 2019 for the Apple Card credit card, as the lender for the loans, Bloomberg News reported, citing people familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>The prospect of going up against a behemoth like Apple, as well as other entrants including PayPal, was likely to test Australian pure-play BNPL firms that have so far gone unchallenged in a fertile U.S. market.</p>\n<p>Shares of Australia-listed Afterpay, the country’s biggest BNPL provider which derives a big chunk of its revenue from the United States, dived nearly 10% on Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Smaller rivals Zip Co Ltd and Sezzle fell sharply.

Nasdaq-listed Affirm Holdings Inc tumbled more than 14% on Tuesday following the Bloomberg report and closed 10.5% lower.\nApple Pay is a bigger threat than potential offerings from banks or credit companies given its wide reach and superior consumer experience on a mobile website or in-store, a client note by Citi analysts said.\nThe BNPL industry has boomed as online shopping picked up pace during the global health crisis, with the number of merchants in the United States adding the repayment option nearly tripling in 2020, according to a McKinsey report.\nIn Australia, where the regulation of the fast-growing sector is light and adoption is higher compared to other markets, a Deloitte report said 30% of the consumers in the country have a BNPL account.\nThe sector’s fast-paced growth attracted Swedish firm Klarna, which has emerged as a major rival in Australia, and caught the attention of mainstream U.S. companies.\nU.S. payments giant PayPal launched its service in Australia on Wednesday and raised the ante by saying it would do away with late fees, an area that had earned Afterpay close to A$70 million ($52.23 million) in fiscal 2020.\nThe Bloomberg report said Apple Pay users would be allowed to split their payments into four interest-free instalments, or across several months with interest - a model similar to rivals Klarna, Afterpay, Zip’s Quadpay and Affirm.\nA Goldman Sachs spokesperson declined to comment, while Apple was not available for comment.\nAfterpay said competition reinforces the significance of the sector and that each BNPL player operates a different model and generate revenue in different ways.\nA Zip spokesman said Apple’s reported move validated the company’s business where it was growing customer numbers despite increased competition.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":125,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":145778017,"gmtCreate":1626250245839,"gmtModify":1631887104779,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>be patient ","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$</a>be patient ","text":"$ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$be patient","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c8d7ebd7b5592b2fa9108e52b904c8df","width":"1284","height":"2223"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/145778017","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":286,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":142874585,"gmtCreate":1626143358547,"gmtModify":1633929685151,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">$Apple(AAPL)$</a>gogogog","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">$Apple(AAPL)$</a>gogogog","text":"$Apple(AAPL)$gogogog","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1496c0b8bf1704890d40482e244542e6","width":"1284","height":"2223"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/142874585","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":152,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":146443598,"gmtCreate":1626097766214,"gmtModify":1633930167014,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Looks like didn’t flyyy like yesterday’s launch.

While passenger ticket sales have yet to be announced, Bernstein expects them to come at a higher price point between $400,000 and $500,000.\nVirgin Galactic also announced it is partnering with sweepstakes company Omaze to offer a chance at two seats on \"one of the first commercial Virgin Galactic spaceflights\" early next year.\n\"The flight is symbolically important for building consumer confidence in and demand for space tourism,\" said Harned. \"A successful test flight by Blue Origin including founder Jeff Bezos, scheduled for July 20, should generate further interest in the industry, which would benefit both companies.\"\n\nIn 2004, Branson founded Virgin Galactic to fly private passengers to space. Branson was not previously expected to fly on Sunday's spaceflight but after fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos announced he would fly on his company Blue Origin's first passenger flight on July 20, Virgin Galactic rearranged its schedule — aiming to fly Branson nine days before Bezos.\nLaunching ahead of Bezos or Elon Musk, Sunday's flight means Branson is the first of the billionaire space company founders to ride his own spacecraft.\nAB Bernstein said the flight's success and subsequent ticket sales could well be an upward short-term catalyst for the stock but did not change their long-term forecast. The firm did note that it wouldn't be short the stock, as it has seen huge volatility driven by retail investors reacting to events.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":105,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":146190330,"gmtCreate":1626057051220,"gmtModify":1633930565193,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4088467012186210","authorIdStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Let’s see what will happen after the earnings call on 31st July","listText":"Let’s see what will happen after the earnings call on 31st July","text":"Let’s see what will happen after the earnings call on 31st July","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/146190330","repostId":"1151203401","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1151203401","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1626052810,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1151203401?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-12 09:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Jim Lebenthal Thinks Apple Stock Is Headed To $175 This Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1151203401","media":"Benzinga","summary":"After a slow start to the year,Apple Inc(NASDAQ:AAPL) made a new all-time high in Friday's trading s","content":"<p>After a slow start to the year,<b>Apple Inc</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL) made a new all-time high in Friday's trading session.</p>\n<p>When Apple sets a new high, the stock usually rides the momentum and goes a lot higher, Cerity Partners'<b>Jim Lebenthal</b>said on CNBC's \"Fast Money Halftime Report.\"</p>\n<p>The one exception to this was when Apple pulled back at the beginning of the year after making a new high, Lebenthal noted.

On Thursday, the Commerce Department will report second-quarter GDP data.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":524,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":144050156,"gmtCreate":1626255700975,"gmtModify":1633928596257,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4088467012186210","idStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Still a good stock to buy ","listText":"Still a good stock to buy ","text":"Still a good stock to buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/144050156","repostId":"1176184294","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176184294","pubTimestamp":1626254217,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1176184294?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-14 17:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple's potential 'buy now, pay later' plan sends sector shares tumbling","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176184294","media":"Reuters","summary":" -A report that Apple Inc is working on a service to let users pay for purchases in instalments dragged down shares in the ‘buy now, pay later’ sector, which has thrived during the pandemic as online shoppers look for easier repayment options.The U.S. tech giant will use Goldman Sachs, its partner since 2019 for the Apple Card credit card, as the lender for the loans, Bloomberg News reported, citing people familiar with the matter.The prospect of going up against a behemoth like Apple, as well a","content":"<p>(Reuters) -A report that Apple Inc is working on a service to let users pay for purchases in instalments dragged down shares in the ‘buy now, pay later’ sector, which has thrived during the pandemic as online shoppers look for easier repayment options.</p>\n<p>The U.S. tech giant will use Goldman Sachs, its partner since 2019 for the Apple Card credit card, as the lender for the loans, Bloomberg News reported, citing people familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>The prospect of going up against a behemoth like Apple, as well as other entrants including PayPal, was likely to test Australian pure-play BNPL firms that have so far gone unchallenged in a fertile U.S. market.</p>\n<p>Shares of Australia-listed Afterpay, the country’s biggest BNPL provider which derives a big chunk of its revenue from the United States, dived nearly 10% on Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Smaller rivals Zip Co Ltd and Sezzle fell sharply.

regulation of the fast-growing sector is light and adoption is higher compared to other markets, a Deloitte report said 30% of the consumers in the country have a BNPL account.\nThe sector’s fast-paced growth attracted Swedish firm Klarna, which has emerged as a major rival in Australia, and caught the attention of mainstream U.S. companies.\nU.S. payments giant PayPal launched its

near-term prospects.</li>\n <li>Even so, current lofty valuation leaves little room for upside investment potential.</li>\n <li>I remain slightly bearish on the company's prospects.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Tesla (TSLA), the undoubted leader in the electric vehicle market, has had the share price run of a lifetime, rising nearly 1,500% over the past 24 months as markets rallied for the post-pandemic surge and the company continued reporting solid sales and income growth.</p>\n<p>I've argued in the past that, although the company has several strong long-term growth avenues to pursue, their long-term prospects are dimmed compared to what analysts have projected, given the amount of competition emerging in the EV industry over the course of the next few years.</p>\n<p>But that's a whole other thing than the company's near-term prospects, which I believe are grand relative to some of the established players shifting over to electric vehicle production, as I've highlighted inmy recent articleon Ford (F). These advantages mean that the company will remain superior in the near term when it comes to profitability and diversity within the EV industry and can best utilize the rapid growth rate the entire industry is expecting.</p>\n<p>The Long-Term Headwinds Haven't Changed</p>\n<p>As I've been highlighting for several months now,Tesla's long-term prospects have dimmedsince other automobile companies like Ford and General Motors (GM) in the United States, NIO (NIO) and others in the Asia-Pacific region and other European and South Korean automobile manufacturers moved up their electrification process timelines. The main reason for this is that these companies have very solid brand recognition, and individuals who have owned these models for years or decades have the option to opt for an electric version of those; they choose those over trying out a new untested model a majority of the time.</p>\n<p>With companies like Ford introducing the all-electric F-150 and others, it's unclear how Tesla can maintain this high growth rate beyond 2024 as these models are expected to hit the streets and begin capturing back market share away from Tesla and other current models. Other factors like Tesla opening up their charging station network to all EV models, as well as a massive capital injection into EV charging stations in the most recent infrastructure spending bill in the United States, will surely help Tesla's income when it charges for the use, but it also helps other companies overcome the main hurdle of widespread adoption - clearing a pathway for more and more EV models to emerge.</p>\n<p>The Short-Term Tailwinds Are Emerging</p>\n<p>Tesla has several near-term tailwinds which will keep way ahead of any competition for the next 12 to 24 months. These mostly all boil down to profitability but also focus on various business model advantages.</p>\n<p>1. A positive profit margin: While other companies are just now beginning to invest in transforming their manufacturing facilities from fossil fuel intake engines to electric vehicle production, Tesla has done this and way more efficiently. Since they've built these from scratch, they've mostly automated the process and thus enjoy a much higher profit margin. Other companies won't see a profit per vehicle for years to come.</p>\n<p>2. Surging battery manufacturing: Although other companies have a mixed position on whether to manufacture their own batteries or set up joint ventures with existing companies, Tesla has been churning out batteries for years and have, as similar with the vehicle manufacturing process, nearly fully automated the process to maximize profits per unit.</p>\n<p>3. International manufacturing: Other companies, thus far, have focused on restructuring and transforming current assembly plants in the United States and will likely take several more years before they do so for other international facilities, which means they will need to spend a fortune shipping these new vehicles around the world to the EMEA and the Asia-Pacific. Tesla, on the other hand, has manufacturing facilities in the United States and in China and is set to open their plant in Germany as well as being in final development stages of an India plant, which will allow them to access a much larger market.</p>\n<p>4. Charging stations advantage: Although the new infrastructure bill in the United States, as well as massive investments in countries like Japan and China, are certain to put in hundreds of thousands of new EV charging stations across the globe, this will take time. So far, only Tesla has a real robust charging network across the world. A recent development, which does have negative elements to it as mentioned earlier, has a positive near term one - they will be raking in net profits from allowing other electric vehicles to charge on their network. This means that they'll likely be profiting from each vehicle their competitors churn out, at least until the scaling up of non-Tesla charging stations takes place.</p>\n<p>5. \"Other Business\" growth rate: While other automobile companies are still spending hand over fist on their other models and products, Tesla enjoys being only in high-growth industries like SolarCity's solar panels and battery sales. As I'll expand on in the next segment, they also don't have near-term or long-term financial obligations from these \"other business\" segments as establishment automobile companies have.</p>\n<p>Balance Sheet Advantages</p>\n<p>Although some elements of their balance sheet advantage are set to help them in the long run as well, they're mostly advantages for the short term since once these other companies begin making a profit from their EV sales - a lot of this will be reversed.</p>\n<p>Tesla's main advantage, as mentioned earlier, is that they're actually raking in cash from each car they sell, allowing them to use that cash to continue and set up more manufacturing facilities and invest in battery technology, solar technology and production increases. This is contrary to other automobile companies which have high financial obligations to their other business segments like pensions and leases. This will further aid the company's overall profit margin, while they don't struggle with such obligations.</p>\n<p>These other companies will need to use profits and cash from their existing legacy business segments to pay for their losses on each vehicle they produce, hurting their overall valuation moving forward.</p>\n<p>Although Tesla has $6.9 billion inlong-term debt, a factor which kept many investors on the sidelines as debt racked up, they currently hold just under $16.3 billion in cash and equivalents, making their net debt position negative. They've been using the cash to pay down their debt as well,reducing their interest expense burdenfrom almost $800 million in 2020 to just over $500 million in 2021. Tesla paid back $15 billion in debt in 2021 for a net debt reduction of $6 billion. There's very little doubt that other automobile companies will be forced to take on more debt to finance increased production and in this raising rate environment, that can snowball.</p>\n<p>Tesla is set to seecash flowof around $10 billion annually whereas a company like Ford has been fluctuating between a net positive and negative cash flow status for the past few years, and that's not expected to change through 2025 as they continue to increase investments in the electrification of their vehicles.</p>\n<p>What About Current Valuation</p>\n<p>Analystscurrently expect the company to report EPS of $5.38 for 2021 and grow at a fast pace to reach EPS of $10.33 for 2024. As I mentioned in my earlier article, I believe that, given comparison with other major automobile companies, the company is fairly valued at around 75x forward earnings.</p>\n<p>I do, however, believe that some of the current competition expectations are overblown for the near term, as I've been mentioning throughout the entire article. Therefore, I do believe that Tesla will outperform current expectations at least through 2023. This means that a 75x forward earnings multiple is the ground base for appropriate valuation, I believe.</p>\n<p>This presents the following fair value, with the implied increase potential:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/052968e079d7fe8419e4790de451c9fd\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"201\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">As you can see, this means that Tesla is almost 40% overvalued relative to earnings expectations, even if they overcome them by as much as 20%. However, given that these expectations are likely to be beaten, I don't believe that shorting the company is a good idea, but one thing that is worth looking out for is a general market correction.</p>\n<p>The Biggest Risk Of Owning Tesla</p>\n<p>The biggest risk with owning Tesla right now is that, in a general market correction, which can happen at any moment as the post-pandemic trade is winding down, companies with lofty expectations tend to fall the most as fair value is sought beyond what their potential is way down the line.</p>\n<p>I don't believe that shorting Tesla is the right approach, even though my disclosures down below and in previous article state that I am, given general market exposure. I am short simply because I don't believe that much upwards potential is there, whilst downward potential in a market correction is vast. So, given that I am mostly long, this short is a general portfolio hedge while I reduce positions in case of a correction.</p>\n<p>In Conclusion</p>\n<p>Tesla has several positive catalysts which should keep them on top of the EV industry growth roster for the next 24 to 36 months, while other companies struggle to make even a single penny on their new vehicles. These are set, I believe, to allow them to beat earnings expectations for that time period.</p>\n<p>Even so, their long-term competitive pressures remain high and as I stated in my previous article - their long-term growth prospects will continue to dim as time moves on.</p>\n<p>Even with these positive near-term advantages, I still believe that the company is overvalued by as much as 40%, and although I do not favor shorting the company for this overvaluation, I remain slightly bearish on their long-term prospects and neutral to slightly bullish on their near-term one.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

These advantages mean that the company will remain superior in the near term when it comes to profitability and diversity within the EV industry and can best utilize the rapid growth rate the entire industry is expecting.\nThe Long-Term Headwinds Haven't Changed\nAs I've been highlighting for several months now,Tesla's long-term prospects have dimmedsince other automobile companies like Ford and General Motors (GM) in the United States, NIO (NIO) and others in the Asia-Pacific region and other European and South Korean automobile manufacturers moved up their electrification process timelines. The main reason for this is that these companies have very solid brand recognition, and individuals who have owned these models for years or decades have the option to opt for an electric version of those; they choose those over trying out a new untested model a majority of the time.\nWith companies like Ford introducing the all-electric F-150 and others, it's unclear how Tesla can maintain this high growth rate beyond 2024 as these models are expected to hit the streets and begin capturing back market share away from Tesla and other current models. Other factors like Tesla opening up their charging station network to all EV models, as well as a massive capital injection into EV charging stations in the most recent infrastructure spending bill in the United States, will surely help Tesla's income when it charges for the use, but it also helps other companies overcome the main hurdle of widespread adoption - clearing a pathway for more and more EV models to emerge.\nThe Short-Term Tailwinds Are Emerging\nTesla has several near-term tailwinds which will keep way ahead of any competition for the next 12 to 24 months. These mostly all boil down to profitability but also focus on various business model advantages.\n1. A positive profit margin: While other companies are just now beginning to invest in transforming their manufacturing facilities from fossil fuel intake engines to electric vehicle production, Tesla has done this and way more efficiently. Since they've built these from scratch, they've mostly automated the process and thus enjoy a much higher profit margin. Other companies won't see a profit per vehicle for years to come.\n2. Surging battery manufacturing: Although other companies have a mixed position on whether to manufacture their own batteries or set up joint ventures with existing companies, Tesla has been churning out batteries for years and have, as similar with the vehicle manufacturing process, nearly fully automated the process to maximize profits per unit.\n3. International manufacturing: Other companies, thus far, have focused on restructuring and transforming current assembly plants in the United States and will likely take several more years before they do so for other international facilities, which means they will need to spend a fortune shipping these new vehicles around the world to the EMEA and the Asia-Pacific. Tesla, on the other hand, has manufacturing facilities in the United States and in China and is set to open their plant in Germany as well as being in final development stages of an India plant, which will allow them to access a much larger market.\n4. Charging stations advantage: Although the new infrastructure bill in the United States, as well as massive investments in countries like Japan and China, are certain to put in hundreds of thousands of new EV charging stations across the globe, this will take time. So far, only Tesla has a real robust charging network across the world. A recent development, which does have negative elements to it as mentioned earlier, has a positive near term one - they will be raking in net profits from allowing other electric vehicles to charge on their network. This means that they'll likely be profiting from each vehicle their competitors churn out, at least until the scaling up of non-Tesla charging stations takes place.\n5. \"Other Business\" growth rate: While other automobile companies are still spending hand over fist on their other models and products, Tesla enjoys being only in high-growth industries like SolarCity's solar panels and battery sales. As I'll expand on in the next segment, they also don't have near-term or long-term financial obligations from these \"other business\" segments as establishment automobile companies have.\nBalance Sheet Advantages\nAlthough some elements of their balance sheet advantage are set to help them in the long run as well, they're mostly advantages for the short term since once these other companies begin making a profit from their EV sales - a lot of this will be reversed.\nTesla's main advantage, as mentioned earlier, is that they're actually raking in cash from each car they sell, allowing them to use that cash to continue and set up more manufacturing facilities and invest in battery technology, solar technology and production increases. This is contrary to other automobile companies which have high financial obligations to their other business segments like pensions and leases. This will further aid the company's overall profit margin, while they don't struggle with such obligations.\nThese other companies will need to use profits and cash from their existing legacy business segments to pay for their losses on each vehicle they produce, hurting their overall valuation moving forward.\nAlthough Tesla has $6.9 billion inlong-term debt, a factor which kept many investors on the sidelines as debt racked up, they currently hold just under $16.3 billion in cash and equivalents, making their net debt position negative. They've been using the cash to pay down their debt as well,reducing their interest expense burdenfrom almost $800 million in 2020 to just over $500 million in 2021. Tesla paid back $15 billion in debt in 2021 for a net debt reduction of $6 billion. There's very little doubt that other automobile companies will be forced to take on more debt to finance increased production and in this raising rate environment, that can snowball.\nTesla is set to seecash flowof around $10 billion annually whereas a company like Ford has been fluctuating between a net positive and negative cash flow status for the past few years, and that's not expected to change through 2025 as they continue to increase investments in the electrification of their vehicles.\nWhat About Current Valuation\nAnalystscurrently expect the company to report EPS of $5.38 for 2021 and grow at a fast pace to reach EPS of $10.33 for 2024. As I mentioned in my earlier article, I believe that, given comparison with other major automobile companies, the company is fairly valued at around 75x forward earnings.\nI do, however, believe that some of the current competition expectations are overblown for the near term, as I've been mentioning throughout the entire article. Therefore, I do believe that Tesla will outperform current expectations at least through 2023. This means that a 75x forward earnings multiple is the ground base for appropriate valuation, I believe.\nThis presents the following fair value, with the implied increase potential:\nAs you can see, this means that Tesla is almost 40% overvalued relative to earnings expectations, even if they overcome them by as much as 20%. However, given that these expectations are likely to be beaten, I don't believe that shorting the company is a good idea, but one thing that is worth looking out for is a general market correction.\nThe Biggest Risk Of Owning Tesla\nThe biggest risk with owning Tesla right now is that, in a general market correction, which can happen at any moment as the post-pandemic trade is winding down, companies with lofty expectations tend to fall the most as fair value is sought beyond what their potential is way down the line.\nI don't believe that shorting Tesla is the right approach, even though my disclosures down below and in previous article state that I am, given general market exposure. I am short simply because I don't believe that much upwards potential is there, whilst downward potential in a market correction is vast. So, given that I am mostly long, this short is a general portfolio hedge while I reduce positions in case of a correction.\nIn Conclusion\nTesla has several positive catalysts which should keep them on top of the EV industry growth roster for the next 24 to 36 months, while other companies struggle to make even a single penny on their new vehicles. These are set, I believe, to allow them to beat earnings expectations for that time period.\nEven so, their long-term competitive pressures remain high and as I stated in my previous article - their long-term growth prospects will continue to dim as time moves on.\nEven with these positive near-term advantages, I still believe that the company is overvalued by as much as 40%, and although I do not favor shorting the company for this overvaluation, I remain slightly bearish on their long-term prospects and neutral to slightly bullish on their near-term one.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":148660680,"gmtCreate":1625971888140,"gmtModify":1633931230677,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4088467012186210","idStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/148660680","repostId":"1135090843","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1135090843","pubTimestamp":1625970902,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1135090843?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-11 10:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Earnings Reports to Watch Next Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1135090843","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Earnings reports will provide insight into how these companies are performing\nSource: Shutterstock\nT","content":"<p>Earnings reports will provide insight into how these companies are performing</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d277b8ff1b6b6711ba0749313119f04\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"576\"><span>Source: Shutterstock</span></p>\n<p>The major U.S. banks are due to report their latest earnings the week of July 12, and the results can be expected to dominate the financial news cycle. The earnings will provide insights into the health and momentum of the economy as they provide a read on both business and consumer spending. With the economy sprinting coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic, the big commercial and investment banks are expected toreport strong results.</p>\n<p>The banks are also expected to begin rewarding shareholders after the U.S. Federal Reserve recently cleared them to again payout dividends and buyback their own stock. Wall Street estimates forecast that the six biggest U.S. banks could return more than $140 billion to shareholders in coming months through dividends and share buybacks.</p>\n<p>Here are seven of the biggest American banks with earnings reports next week:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>JPMorgan Chase</b>(NYSE:<b><u>JPM</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Goldman Sachs</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Bank of America</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BAC</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Citigroup</b>(NYSE:<b><u>C</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Wells Fargo</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WFC</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Morgan Stanley</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>U.S. Bancorp</b>(NYSE:<b><u>USB</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>JPMorgan Chase (JPM)</b></p>\n<p>First out of the gate next week is the biggest U.S. bank, JPMorgan Chase. The financial conglomerate led by Jamie Dimon has generated headlines for its spate of recent acquisitions. The bank has made 33 acquisitions so far this year, its biggest spending spree in several years. The deals have mostly involved small foreign money managers and digital banks in countries such as England and Brazil.</p>\n<p>JPMorgan Chase has said that it is pursuing acquisitions to contend with an ongoing low-interest-rate environment and greater competition from financial technology (fintech) companies.</p>\n<p>The deals completed in the first half of this year are on par with all the deals JPMorgan Chase completed last year. JPM stock has risen this year along with the entire bank sector. Year-to-date, JPM stock is up 22% to a July 9 open of $153.05. In the past 12 months, the stock has increased 66%. In this year’s first quarter, JPMorgan Chase’s earnings increased 477% to $4.50 per share diluted and beat analyst estimates of $3.06 a share. Earnings were given a significant boost by $5.2 billion of net reserves that the bank had built up in 2020 during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>For the second-quarter results to be released on July 13, analysts are forecasting revenue of $30 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of $3.03.</p>\n<p><b>Goldman Sachs (GS)</b></p>\n<p>Leading investment bank Goldman Sachs also reports second-quarter results on July 13, and expectations are high for blockbuster earnings. The venerable Wall Street firm set the bar high earlier this year when it reported record first quarter results that blew away expectations. Fueled by a record amount of investment banking activity, Goldman Sachs reported first quarter revenues of $17.7 billion, way ahead of the $12.6 billion forecast by analysts. EPS for the bank came in at $18.60, destroying the $10.22 estimated by analysts and 498% higher than in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Can Goldman do it again with its second-quarter results? The consensus among analysts is for the investment bank to report second-quarter EPS of $9.52 a share, for year-over-year growth of 52%. Should Goldman Sachs beat expectations by a wide margin, it will likely propel the company’s share price to new heights. In this year’s first half, GS stock rose 40% to its July 9 opening price of $366. In the past year, the stock has gained 77%.</p>\n<p>Despite the big run in the bank’s share price, analysts see further gains in store. The median price target on GS stock is $415, implying another 13% gain in coming months.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America (BAC)</b></p>\n<p>The second-largest U.S. bank by assets, Bank of America, reports its latest quarterly numbers on July 14. And the lender has been signaling that Wall Street should expect solid second-quarter results. Chief Executive Officer Brian Moynihan has been saying publicly that Bank of America is emerging from the pandemic a stronger and more competitive financial institution, helped by higher capital ratios and higher reserves. In the first quarter, the bank reported record levels of deposits, investment flows and investment banking revenues.</p>\n<p>Bank of America attracted the attention of investors when it announced on June 28 that it will increase its common stock dividend by 17% to 21 cents per share for the third quarter of this year. This came after the bank announced a $25 billion share buyback plan in April. For the second quarter, Bank of America is expected to report EPS of 77 cents, more than doubling Q2 2020’s $0.37.</p>\n<p>In this year’s first quarter, Bank of America posted EPS of 86 cents, up 115% year-over-year and above the consensus forecast of 66 cents. First quarter revenues were up a slight 0.2% to $22.8 billion, beating analysts’ estimates of $22.13 billion. BAC stock has climbed 32% higher year-to-date to $39.65 a share as of July 9. In the past 12 months, the share price has increased 73%. While the stock pulled back in the middle of June, next week’s earnings could spark the next leg higher.</p>\n<p><b>Citigroup (C)</b></p>\n<p>On July 14, we’ll also get earnings from Citigroup. And the latest results come at a time when C stock has been struggling and, at its July 9 level of $66.73 a share, is starting to look a little undervalued compared to its peers.</p>\n<p>Citigroup’s share price is up 11% year-to-date and has risen 34% over the last 52 weeks. Those are decent returns, but they trail the other big banks featured in this article. In the past month, Citigroup’s share price has slumped 14%. The June drop came after the bank warned that its trading revenue will likely decline by 30% this year on weak deal volumes.</p>\n<p>Despite the downward guidance, analysts still expect Citigroup to report earnings growth for the second quarter of this year. The bank is forecast to post EPS of $1.91 next week, which would be a year-over-year increase of nearly 300%. However, revenues are expected to come in at $17.35 billion, which would be about 10% lower than the second quarter of 2020 revenue of $19.77 billion. Many analysts revised down their revenue forecasts after Citigroup warned of rising costs. Chief Financial Officer Mark Mason said on June 16 that he expects second-quarter expenses to increase by as much as $11.6 billion.</p>\n<p><b>Wells Fargo (WFC)</b></p>\n<p>San Francisco-based Wells Fargo, which reports earnings on July 14, recently dominated headlines after it announced that it is closing out all of its existing personal lines of credit and will no longer offer the financial product. Lines of credit typically give retail customers loans of $3,000 to $100,000 and is often used to consolidate higher-interest credit card debt, pay for home renovations and fund college educations.</p>\n<p>The news came as a jolt to Wells Fargo customers, who were informed by the bank that the credit line closures “may have an impact on your credit score.”</p>\n<p>Eliminating the lines of credit is the latest move by Wells Fargo as it reviews its operations coming out the pandemic. The steps taken to date seem to be winning approval from investors. WFC stock is one of the best performing among banks this year. So far this year, Wells Fargo stock has gained 44% and now trades at $43.18. The share price is up 77% over the last year.For its second quarter, analysts expect Wells Fargo to report EPS of 93 cents on $17.78 billion in revenues.</p>\n<p><b>Morgan Stanley (MS)</b></p>\n<p>Investment bank Morgan Stanley won praise from investors a few weeks back after it became the first Wall Street firm to increase its dividend payout after passing the U.S. Federal Reserve’s latest stress test. A day after getting the all clear from the central bank, Morgan Stanley announced that it is doubling its quarterly dividend to 70 cents per share starting in this year’s third quarter and spending $12 billion to buy back its own stock. The share repurchase program will run for the next four quarters.</p>\n<p>The positive news for shareholders helped to extend a rally in MS stock, which is now up 31% year-to-date at $87.40 a share, and up 79% over the past 12 months. Similar to rival investment bank Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley’s first quarter revenue toppled analyst expectations. For the first three months of this year, Morgan Stanley reported EPS of $2.22 a share, a substantial improvement over projections of $1.70. And the company’s revenue increased 61% in the first quarter to a record $15.7 billion, beating analysts’ estimates by $1.6 billion.</p>\n<p>For the second quarter reporting on July 15, analysts forecast that Morgan Stanley will report EPS of $1.65 on revenue of $13.96 billion.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp (USB)</b></p>\n<p>Probably the least-known bank on this list is Minneapolis, Minnesota-based U.S. Bancorp. While it primarily operates in the Midwest, U.S. Bancorp is currently the fifth-largest American bank with assets approaching $500 billion. Often referred to as a“super regional bank”because of its size and performance, the lender is a long-term holding of legendary investor Warren Buffett’s <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BRK.B</u></b>) holding company. Buffett currently has more than $8 billion invested in USB stock.</p>\n<p>Year-to-date, USB stock is up 22%, opening July 9 at $56.08 a share. In the past 12 months, the share price has climbed 60% higher.

The earnings will provide insights into the health and momentum of the economy as they provide a read on both business and consumer spending. With the economy sprinting coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic, the big commercial and investment banks are expected toreport strong results.\nThe banks are also expected to begin rewarding shareholders after the U.S. Federal Reserve recently cleared them to again payout dividends and buyback their own stock. Wall Street estimates forecast that the six biggest U.S. banks could return more than $140 billion to shareholders in coming months through dividends and share buybacks.\nHere are seven of the biggest American banks with earnings reports next week:\n\nJPMorgan Chase(NYSE:JPM)\nGoldman Sachs(NYSE:GS)\nBank of America(NYSE:BAC)\nCitigroup(NYSE:C)\nWells Fargo(NYSE:WFC)\nMorgan Stanley(NYSE:MS)\nU.S. Bancorp(NYSE:USB)\n\nJPMorgan Chase (JPM)\nFirst out of the gate next week is the biggest U.S. bank, JPMorgan Chase. The financial conglomerate led by Jamie Dimon has generated headlines for its spate of recent acquisitions. The bank has made 33 acquisitions so far this year, its biggest spending spree in several years. The deals have mostly involved small foreign money managers and digital banks in countries such as England and Brazil.\nJPMorgan Chase has said that it is pursuing acquisitions to contend with an ongoing low-interest-rate environment and greater competition from financial technology (fintech) companies.\nThe deals completed in the first half of this year are on par with all the deals JPMorgan Chase completed last year. JPM stock has risen this year along with the entire bank sector. Year-to-date, JPM stock is up 22% to a July 9 open of $153.05. In the past 12 months, the stock has increased 66%. In this year’s first quarter, JPMorgan Chase’s earnings increased 477% to $4.50 per share diluted and beat analyst estimates of $3.06 a share. Earnings were given a significant boost by $5.2 billion of net reserves that the bank had built up in 2020 during the pandemic.\nFor the second-quarter results to be released on July 13, analysts are forecasting revenue of $30 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of $3.03.\nGoldman Sachs (GS)\nLeading investment bank Goldman Sachs also reports second-quarter results on July 13, and expectations are high for blockbuster earnings. The venerable Wall Street firm set the bar high earlier this year when it reported record first quarter results that blew away expectations. Fueled by a record amount of investment banking activity, Goldman Sachs reported first quarter revenues of $17.7 billion, way ahead of the $12.6 billion forecast by analysts. EPS for the bank came in at $18.60, destroying the $10.22 estimated by analysts and 498% higher than in the first quarter of 2020.\nCan Goldman do it again with its second-quarter results? The consensus among analysts is for the investment bank to report second-quarter EPS of $9.52 a share, for year-over-year growth of 52%. Should Goldman Sachs beat expectations by a wide margin, it will likely propel the company’s share price to new heights. In this year’s first half, GS stock rose 40% to its July 9 opening price of $366. In the past year, the stock has gained 77%.\nDespite the big run in the bank’s share price, analysts see further gains in store. The median price target on GS stock is $415, implying another 13% gain in coming months.\nBank of America (BAC)\nThe second-largest U.S. bank by assets, Bank of America, reports its latest quarterly numbers on July 14. And the lender has been signaling that Wall Street should expect solid second-quarter results. Chief Executive Officer Brian Moynihan has been saying publicly that Bank of America is emerging from the pandemic a stronger and more competitive financial institution, helped by higher capital ratios and higher reserves. In the first quarter, the bank reported record levels of deposits, investment flows and investment banking revenues.\nBank of America attracted the attention of investors when it announced on June 28 that it will increase its common stock dividend by 17% to 21 cents per share for the third quarter of this year. This came after the bank announced a $25 billion share buyback plan in April. For the second quarter, Bank of America is expected to report EPS of 77 cents, more than doubling Q2 2020’s $0.37.\nIn this year’s first quarter, Bank of America posted EPS of 86 cents, up 115% year-over-year and above the consensus forecast of 66 cents. First quarter revenues were up a slight 0.2% to $22.8 billion, beating analysts’ estimates of $22.13 billion. BAC stock has climbed 32% higher year-to-date to $39.65 a share as of July 9. In the past 12 months, the share price has increased 73%. While the stock pulled back in the middle of June, next week’s earnings could spark the next leg higher.\nCitigroup (C)\nOn July 14, we’ll also get earnings from Citigroup. And the latest results come at a time when C stock has been struggling and, at its July 9 level of $66.73 a share, is starting to look a little undervalued compared to its peers.\nCitigroup’s share price is up 11% year-to-date and has risen 34% over the last 52 weeks. Those are decent returns, but they trail the other big banks featured in this article. In the past month, Citigroup’s share price has slumped 14%. The June drop came after the bank warned that its trading revenue will likely decline by 30% this year on weak deal volumes.\nDespite the downward guidance, analysts still expect Citigroup to report earnings growth for the second quarter of this year. The bank is forecast to post EPS of $1.91 next week, which would be a year-over-year increase of nearly 300%. However, revenues are expected to come in at $17.35 billion, which would be about 10% lower than the second quarter of 2020 revenue of $19.77 billion. Many analysts revised down their revenue forecasts after Citigroup warned of rising costs. Chief Financial Officer Mark Mason said on June 16 that he expects second-quarter expenses to increase by as much as $11.6 billion.\nWells Fargo (WFC)\nSan Francisco-based Wells Fargo, which reports earnings on July 14, recently dominated headlines after it announced that it is closing out all of its existing personal lines of credit and will no longer offer the financial product. Lines of credit typically give retail customers loans of $3,000 to $100,000 and is often used to consolidate higher-interest credit card debt, pay for home renovations and fund college educations.\nThe news came as a jolt to Wells Fargo customers, who were informed by the bank that the credit line closures “may have an impact on your credit score.”\nEliminating the lines of credit is the latest move by Wells Fargo as it reviews its operations coming out the pandemic. The steps taken to date seem to be winning approval from investors. WFC stock is one of the best performing among banks this year. So far this year, Wells Fargo stock has gained 44% and now trades at $43.18. The share price is up 77% over the last year.For its second quarter, analysts expect Wells Fargo to report EPS of 93 cents on $17.78 billion in revenues.\nMorgan Stanley (MS)\nInvestment bank Morgan Stanley won praise from investors a few weeks back after it became the first Wall Street firm to increase its dividend payout after passing the U.S. Federal Reserve’s latest stress test. A day after getting the all clear from the central bank, Morgan Stanley announced that it is doubling its quarterly dividend to 70 cents per share starting in this year’s third quarter and spending $12 billion to buy back its own stock. The share repurchase program will run for the next four quarters.\nThe positive news for shareholders helped to extend a rally in MS stock, which is now up 31% year-to-date at $87.40 a share, and up 79% over the past 12 months. Similar to rival investment bank Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley’s first quarter revenue toppled analyst expectations. For the first three months of this year, Morgan Stanley reported EPS of $2.22 a share, a substantial improvement over projections of $1.70. And the company’s revenue increased 61% in the first quarter to a record $15.7 billion, beating analysts’ estimates by $1.6 billion.\nFor the second quarter reporting on July 15, analysts forecast that Morgan Stanley will report EPS of $1.65 on revenue of $13.96 billion.\nU.S. Bancorp (USB)\nProbably the least-known bank on this list is Minneapolis, Minnesota-based U.S. Bancorp. While it primarily operates in the Midwest, U.S. Bancorp is currently the fifth-largest American bank with assets approaching $500 billion. Often referred to as a“super regional bank”because of its size and performance, the lender is a long-term holding of legendary investor Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway(NYSE:BRK.B) holding company. Buffett currently has more than $8 billion invested in USB stock.\nYear-to-date, USB stock is up 22%, opening July 9 at $56.08 a share. In the past 12 months, the share price has climbed 60% higher. However, like the rest of the banking sector, U.S. Bancorp’s stock pulled back over the past month, dipping 6% on worries that inflation is abating and interest rates may remain at historic lows over the medium-term.\nAs for its earnings on July 15, analysts expect the lender to report EPS of $1.12 for the second quarter on revenues of $5.63 billion. In this year’s first quarter, U.S. Bancorp reported EPS of $1.45, beating consensus estimates of 96 cents. First quarter revenue came in at $5.47 billion compared to analysts’ expectations of $5.53 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":815204169,"gmtCreate":1630678733451,"gmtModify":1631884929952,"author":{"id":"4088467012186210","authorId":"4088467012186210","name":"andy1216","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/653530be86acad69c77bb71bf41481e5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4088467012186210","idStr":"4088467012186210"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a
