Only 0.6 per cent of doses have been administered in low-income countries.\nThe enormous sales figures will translate into billions in profits for Pfizer. The company, which must split its vaccine revenue with development partner BioNTech, said that it expects its profit margins on the vaccine will be in the high 20 per cent range next year, the same margin it projected this year.\nThe doses that will be delivered next year include booster shots, mostly for wealthier countries, and primary immunisations, with an emphasis on second doses, for poorer countries.\nA small chunk of the doses will be given to children. The company won authorisation last week for its vaccine to be given in the United States to children between the ages of 5 and 11.\nAn advisory panel to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention voted unanimously Tuesday to recommend paediatric doses for that age group, and if the director signs off, children could begin receiving it this week.\nPfizer expects to have initial data from its studies evaluating its vaccine in children between the ages of 2 and 4 by the end of December and in children between the ages of six months and 1 by the end of March, the company's research chief, Dr Mikael Dolsten, told analysts on Tuesday.\nPfizer could get another revenue boost next year from an antiviral pill it is developing for high-risk Covid-19 patients early in their infections. Results are expected within the next few months from a key clinical trial evaluating whether the drug can cut the risk of hospitalisations and death.\nA Pfizer executive, Angela Hwang, said the company sees a market of up to 150 million people for the pill. She called it a \"durable opportunity,\" saying that governments may be interested in stockpiling the drug.\nA rival pill from Merck, known as molnupiravir, has already been shown to halve the risk of hospitalisation in similar patients. Merck said last week that it expects molnupiravir to generate between US$5 billion and US$7 billion in revenue globally through the end of next year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":739,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":840956641,"gmtCreate":1635578580868,"gmtModify":1635578580868,"author":{"id":"4097144602062140","authorId":"4097144602062140","name":"Steevee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4097144602062140","authorIdStr":"4097144602062140"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wonderful ","listText":"Wonderful ","text":"Wonderful","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/840956641","repostId":"2179122834","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2179122834","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1635556005,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2179122834?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-30 09:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"China's EV maker BYD Co raises $1.77 bln","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2179122834","media":"Reuters","summary":"HONG KONG, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Chinese electric vehicle company BYD Co has priced its shares at HK$27","content":"<p>HONG KONG, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Chinese electric vehicle company BYD Co has priced its shares at HK$276 each to raise $1.77 billon, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters on Saturday.</p>\n<p>The company sold 50 million new shares in the deal launched after the Hong Kong market closed on Friday.</p>\n<p>BYD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

As of this writing on Friday morning, the stock is up a total of 20% this week.</p>\n<p>The growth stock's gain was fueled by the continued momentum of its shares since the company reported strong third-quarter earnings earlier this month, a big order of Tesla vehicles from <b>Hertz</b>, and a number of analyst upgrades for the electric-car maker's stock.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F649348%2Fwhy-tesla-stock-is-rising.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Tesla's factory in California. Image source: The Motley Fool.</p>\n<h2>So what</h2>\n<p>Capturing the stock's momentum for the full month, Tesla shares are up more than 40% since the beginning of October. Much of this gain has come since the company reported third-quarter revenue and earnings per share that exceeded analyst expectations on Oct. 20.</p>\n<p>Adding to the stock's momentum, Hertz announced it would order 100,000 Tesla vehicles by the end of next year. A few days after this announcement, <b>Uber</b> said it would use 50,000 of those vehicles as rentals for its drivers beginning Monday.</p>\n<p>Analysts have been cheering the company's performance, with many of them increasing their 12-month price targets for the stock. Perhaps the most bullish call for Tesla shares came on Wednesday afternoon, when <b>Piper Sandler</b> analyst Alexander Potter said competition appears to be failing to curb Tesla's dominance.

As of this writing on Friday morning, the stock is up a total of 20% this week.\nThe growth stock's gain was fueled by the continued momentum of its shares since the company reported strong third-quarter earnings earlier this month, a big order of Tesla vehicles from Hertz, and a number of analyst upgrades for the electric-car maker's stock.\n\nTesla's factory in California. Image source: The Motley Fool.\nSo what\nCapturing the stock's momentum for the full month, Tesla shares are up more than 40% since the beginning of October. Much of this gain has come since the company reported third-quarter revenue and earnings per share that exceeded analyst expectations on Oct. 20.\nAdding to the stock's momentum, Hertz announced it would order 100,000 Tesla vehicles by the end of next year. A few days after this announcement, Uber said it would use 50,000 of those vehicles as rentals for its drivers beginning Monday.\nAnalysts have been cheering the company's performance, with many of them increasing their 12-month price targets for the stock. Perhaps the most bullish call for Tesla shares came on Wednesday afternoon, when Piper Sandler analyst Alexander Potter said competition appears to be failing to curb Tesla's dominance. He gave shares a 12-month price target of $1,300.\nNow what\nThis has been a huge year for Tesla as the company's revenue has soared and its operating margin has expanded significantly.

But that's slightly lower than Wall Street expected. Shares are down 3.5% in premarket trading.Amazon(AMZN)also missed analyst projections for sales and profit. Its stock is down 4.5% in premarket trading.\"Disruption to the global supply chains and inflation in the cost of materials such as steel and services such as trucking have also raised our cost of operations,\" said Brian Olsavsky, Amazon's chief financial officer.</p>\n<p>Big picture: Even the largest companies in America can't dodge the impact of clogged ports, missing parts and higher costs. That could hang over the final quarter of the year, which is crucial for retailers.</p>\n<p>Amazon CEO Andy Jassy warned that the company's consumer business expects to incur several billion dollars of additional costs in the current period. Apple expects its supply chain costs to keep growing, too.</p>\n<p>\"We estimate the impact from supply constraints will be larger during the December quarter,\" Luca Maestri, the chief financial officer, said.</p>\n<p>This week, the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NHLD\">National</a> Retail Federation said it thinks holiday spending will break records this year, growing between 8.5% and 10.5% compared to 2020.</p>\n<p>\"There is considerable momentum heading into the holiday shopping season,\" NRF President Matthew Shay said. \"Consumers are in a very favorable position going into the last few months of the year as income is rising and household balance sheets have never been stronger.\"</p>\n<p>Retailers, he added, \"are making significant investments in their supply chains and spending heavily to ensure they have products on their shelves to meet this time of exceptional consumer demand.\"</p>\n<p>But those extra investments could crimp profits, overshadowing the spending spree.</p>\n<p>Down to timing: Executives are reminding customers not to procrastinate this year or they may not find what they're looking for. They're dangling earlier promotions and sales to front-load shopping where possible.</p>\n<p>\"There will be racks in retail that are more empty than you'd like when you go Christmas shopping,\" Puma CEO Bjorn Gulden said on a call with reporters this week.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> is changing its corporate name to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CASH\">Meta</a></p>\n<p>Facebook (FB) hasn't been able to keep its name out of the news as it battles a swarm of controversies over its handling of hate speech, disinformation, crime and child safety after a whistleblower leaked hundreds of internal documents.</p>\n<p>So it's changing its name. Naturally.</p>\n<p>The latest: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/00418\">Founder</a> and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Thursday that Facebook's new corporate name will be Meta, demoting its namesake service to a subsidiary, alongside Instagram and WhatsApp.</p>\n<p>The move is intended to highlight the social media giant's pivot to the \"metaverse\" as it builds out online social experiences that leverage augmented and virtual reality.</p>\n<p>\"Today we're seen as a social media company, but in our DNA, we are a company that builds technology to connect people,\" Zuckerberg said. \"And the metaverse is the next frontier just like social networking was when we got started.\"</p>\n<p>They mean business: The company is changing its stock ticker. It plans to begin trading under \"MVRS\" on Dec. 1.</p>\n<p>And the company is backing up the shift in strategy with real money. It said earlier this week it will take a $10 billion hit to operating profit this year in order to ramp up investment in metaverse products.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ISBC\">Investors</a> are tentatively on board. Shares closed 1.5% higher on Thursday and are up another 1% in premarket trading Friday. (Stock in Meta Materials, an unrelated company based in Nova Scotia, also jumped.)</p>\n<p>But the corporate pivot doesn't resolve the public relations crisis plaguing Facebook/Meta, which is generating momentum for regulators to intervene.</p>\n<p>Want to buy a home? Don't wait, this expert says</p>\n<p>The red-hot housing market has many would-be homeowners wondering if they should wait for prices to come down before buying a property.</p>\n<p>But Barbara Corcoran, founder of the Corcoran Group real estate firm and star of \"Shark Tank,\" doesn't think that's the best move.</p>\n<p>\"I don't think it is wise to wait,\" Corcoran said Thursday at CNN Business' \"Foreseeable Future\" event. \"Of course, if you can't find a house, you have to wait. But to make it part of your plan to wait until house prices come down, I don't envision that happening over the next few years.

But that's slightly lower than Wall Street expected. Shares are down 3.5% in premarket trading.Amazon(AMZN)also missed analyst projections for sales and profit. Its stock is down 4.5% in premarket trading.\"Disruption to the global supply chains and inflation in the cost of materials such as steel and services such as trucking have also raised our cost of operations,\" said Brian Olsavsky, Amazon's chief financial officer.\nBig picture: Even the largest companies in America can't dodge the impact of clogged ports, missing parts and higher costs. That could hang over the final quarter of the year, which is crucial for retailers.\nAmazon CEO Andy Jassy warned that the company's consumer business expects to incur several billion dollars of additional costs in the current period. Apple expects its supply chain costs to keep growing, too.\n\"We estimate the impact from supply constraints will be larger during the December quarter,\" Luca Maestri, the chief financial officer, said.\nThis week, the National Retail Federation said it thinks holiday spending will break records this year, growing between 8.5% and 10.5% compared to 2020.\n\"There is considerable momentum heading into the holiday shopping season,\" NRF President Matthew Shay said. \"Consumers are in a very favorable position going into the last few months of the year as income is rising and household balance sheets have never been stronger.\"\nRetailers, he added, \"are making significant investments in their supply chains and spending heavily to ensure they have products on their shelves to meet this time of exceptional consumer demand.\"\nBut those extra investments could crimp profits, overshadowing the spending spree.\nDown to timing: Executives are reminding customers not to procrastinate this year or they may not find what they're looking for. They're dangling earlier promotions and sales to front-load shopping where possible.\n\"There will be racks in retail that are more empty than you'd like when you go Christmas shopping,\" Puma CEO Bjorn Gulden said on a call with reporters this week.\nFacebook is changing its corporate name to Meta\nFacebook (FB) hasn't been able to keep its name out of the news as it battles a swarm of controversies over its handling of hate speech, disinformation, crime and child safety after a whistleblower leaked hundreds of internal documents.\nSo it's changing its name. Naturally.\nThe latest: Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Thursday that Facebook's new corporate name will be Meta, demoting its namesake service to a subsidiary, alongside Instagram and WhatsApp.\nThe move is intended to highlight the social media giant's pivot to the \"metaverse\" as it builds out online social experiences that leverage augmented and virtual reality.\n\"Today we're seen as a social media company, but in our DNA, we are a company that builds technology to connect people,\" Zuckerberg said. \"And the metaverse is the next frontier just like social networking was when we got started.\"\nThey mean business: The company is changing its stock ticker. It plans to begin trading under \"MVRS\" on Dec. 1.\nAnd the company is backing up the shift in strategy with real money. It said earlier this week it will take a $10 billion hit to operating profit this year in order to ramp up investment in metaverse products.\nInvestors are tentatively on board. Shares closed 1.5% higher on Thursday and are up another 1% in premarket trading Friday. (Stock in Meta Materials, an unrelated company based in Nova Scotia, also jumped.)\nBut the corporate pivot doesn't resolve the public relations crisis plaguing Facebook/Meta, which is generating momentum for regulators to intervene.\nWant to buy a home? Don't wait, this expert says\nThe red-hot housing market has many would-be homeowners wondering if they should wait for prices to come down before buying a property.\nBut Barbara Corcoran, founder of the Corcoran Group real estate firm and star of \"Shark Tank,\" doesn't think that's the best move.\n\"I don't think it is wise to wait,\" Corcoran said Thursday at CNN Business' \"Foreseeable Future\" event. \"Of course, if you can't find a house, you have to wait. But to make it part of your plan to wait until house prices come down, I don't envision that happening over the next few years. At least not for the next year.\"\nHome sales have cooled a bit recently from earlier in 2021, but prices continue to climb as supply remains constrained.\nYet holding out could cost more, according to Corcoran. If US home price appreciation maintains a pace similar to the past year, she noted, homebuyers are going to pay another 12% to 14% for the same house in 2022. Goldman Sachs recently forecast home prices would increase by another 16% by the end of next year.\nThat said: Don't call it a bubble!\n\"We don't really have a bubble,\" Corcoran said. \"What we have is an unusual market that's just gone bonkers based on individual demand of the people who want to live there.\"\nUp next\nChevron (CVX), ExxonMobil (XOM), Colgate-Palmolive (CL), Newell Brands (NWL), Phillips 66 (PSX) and Royal Caribbean (RCL) report results before US markets open.\nAlso today: The Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation arrives at 8:30 a.m. ET, along with US personal income data for September.\nComing next week: World leaders gather in Glasgow for COP26 climate talks.

Only 0.6 per cent of doses have been administered in low-income countries.\nThe enormous sales figures will translate into billions in profits for Pfizer. The company, which must split its vaccine revenue with development partner BioNTech, said that it expects its profit margins on the vaccine will be in the high 20 per cent range next year, the same margin it projected this year.\nThe doses that will be delivered next year include booster shots, mostly for wealthier countries, and primary immunisations, with an emphasis on second doses, for poorer countries.\nA small chunk of the doses will be given to children. The company won authorisation last week for its vaccine to be given in the United States to children between the ages of 5 and 11.\nAn advisory panel to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention voted unanimously Tuesday to recommend paediatric doses for that age group, and if the director signs off, children could begin receiving it this week.\nPfizer expects to have initial data from its studies evaluating its vaccine in children between the ages of 2 and 4 by the end of December and in children between the ages of six months and 1 by the end of March, the company's research chief, Dr Mikael Dolsten, told analysts on Tuesday.\nPfizer could get another revenue boost next year from an antiviral pill it is developing for high-risk Covid-19 patients early in their infections. Results are expected within the next few months from a key clinical trial evaluating whether the drug can cut the risk of hospitalisations and death.\nA Pfizer executive, Angela Hwang, said the company sees a market of up to 150 million people for the pill. She called it a \"durable opportunity,\" saying that governments may be interested in stockpiling the drug.\nA rival pill from Merck, known as molnupiravir, has already been shown to halve the risk of hospitalisation in similar patients. Merck said last week that it expects molnupiravir to generate between US$5 billion and US$7 billion in revenue globally through the end of next year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":739,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":696749092,"gmtCreate":1640780082084,"gmtModify":1640780169987,"author":{"id":"4097144602062140","authorId":"4097144602062140","name":"Steevee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4097144602062140","authorIdStr":"4097144602062140"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/696749092","repostId":"1167789367","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1167789367","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1640776830,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1167789367?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-29 19:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Buy Meta Platforms Before the Metaverse Takes Over","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1167789367","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Meta Platforms is a long-term investment in Mark Zuckerberg's vision for a new reality","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>In late October,<b>Meta Platforms</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>FB</u></b>) stock shook up the internet with the next breakthrough in technology, the metaverse.</p><p>The social media giant aims to make the metaverse a critical component of its future direction. The critics panned CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to reinvent itself at a time when it’s reeling from a PR predicament. However, if you stick around with FB stock for the long haul, you’ll reap the rewards of the enterprise’s need of the hour.</p><p>The metaverse concept was relatively unknown to most people before Facebook’s foray into the sector. You probably would’ve known about the concept from the 2018 sci-fi/adventure flick If the metaverse is what Zuckerberg has pictured it to be, it has all the makings of having a cataclysmic impact on the world. Moreover, the social media sector is maturing fast, and growth rates are expected to drop significantly in the coming years. Hence, the move into the metaverse is likely to pay many dividends in the future.</p><p><b>Why the Metaverse Now?</b></p><p>The market hasn’t taken too keenly to Meta Platform’s strategic pivot. The renaming of its brand comes when it’s facing a reputational crisis. Researches have panned its impact on teens’ mental health and its use in spreading fake news. However, the metaverse announcement is more about driving future growth.<i>Ready Player One</i>. However, Meta Platform’s investment in the sphere isn’t just a flash in the pan, as Zuckerberg sees it as the “successor to the mobile internet.”</p><p>There were years where Facebook used to post double-digit revenue growth numbers, comfortably above the 40% mark. However, we have seen a significant slowdown from those levels in its most recent quarters. Additionally, that trend is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.</p><p>On top of that, it is driving most of its growth from countries where the average revenue per user (ARPU) is considerably low. Growth from markets where its ARPU is in the higher end has slowed down over the past few years. Hence, Facebook cannot make much from the regions where online advertising rates are remarkably low.</p><p><b>Enter the Metaverse</b></p><p>The metaverse idea involves the creation of a more immersive internet that effectively makes use of technologies such as VR and AR to engage in the virtual world. Zuckerberg aims to integrate the virtual world with our physical existence seamlessly.</p><p>It’s clear that Meta Platforms is going all-in on the metaverse opportunity and has stressed its importance to its future. It may have spent more than $60 billion from 2014 to 2023 breathing life into its plans.This includes the $2 billion spent on acquiring VR headset specialist Oculus and more than $50 billion on organic and inorganic investments.</p><p>Facebook plans to make its headsets affordable and focus on generating revenues from advertising and commerce within the metaverse. It currently generates next to nothing in revenues at this point. Moreover, its “other revenue” segment contributed just 2.3% to its revenues from the first to the third quarter this year. Meta Platform’s Realty Labs segment, which includes its VR and AR businesses, will launch in the fourth quarter.

The critics panned CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to reinvent itself at a time when it’s reeling from a PR predicament. However, if you stick around with FB stock for the long haul, you’ll reap the rewards of the enterprise’s need of the hour.The metaverse concept was relatively unknown to most people before Facebook’s foray into the sector. You probably would’ve known about the concept from the 2018 sci-fi/adventure flick If the metaverse is what Zuckerberg has pictured it to be, it has all the makings of having a cataclysmic impact on the world. Moreover, the social media sector is maturing fast, and growth rates are expected to drop significantly in the coming years. Hence, the move into the metaverse is likely to pay many dividends in the future.Why the Metaverse Now?The market hasn’t taken too keenly to Meta Platform’s strategic pivot. The renaming of its brand comes when it’s facing a reputational crisis. Researches have panned its impact on teens’ mental health and its use in spreading fake news. However, the metaverse announcement is more about driving future growth.Ready Player One. However, Meta Platform’s investment in the sphere isn’t just a flash in the pan, as Zuckerberg sees it as the “successor to the mobile internet.”There were years where Facebook used to post double-digit revenue growth numbers, comfortably above the 40% mark. However, we have seen a significant slowdown from those levels in its most recent quarters. Additionally, that trend is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.On top of that, it is driving most of its growth from countries where the average revenue per user (ARPU) is considerably low. Growth from markets where its ARPU is in the higher end has slowed down over the past few years. Hence, Facebook cannot make much from the regions where online advertising rates are remarkably low.Enter the MetaverseThe metaverse idea involves the creation of a more immersive internet that effectively makes use of technologies such as VR and AR to engage in the virtual world. Zuckerberg aims to integrate the virtual world with our physical existence seamlessly.It’s clear that Meta Platforms is going all-in on the metaverse opportunity and has stressed its importance to its future. It may have spent more than $60 billion from 2014 to 2023 breathing life into its plans.This includes the $2 billion spent on acquiring VR headset specialist Oculus and more than $50 billion on organic and inorganic investments.Facebook plans to make its headsets affordable and focus on generating revenues from advertising and commerce within the metaverse. It currently generates next to nothing in revenues at this point. Moreover, its “other revenue” segment contributed just 2.3% to its revenues from the first to the third quarter this year. Meta Platform’s Realty Labs segment, which includes its VR and AR businesses, will launch in the fourth quarter. The segment is expected to lose roughly $10 billion every year as we advance.Final Word on FB StockMeta Platforms will invest truckloads of cash in tapping into the metaverse opportunity. However, it’s unclear how it will play out at this time.Nevertheless, its CEO is a visionary and has revolutionized the tech industry in the past couple of decades. He has a track record of executing his plans effectively.However, investors aren’t likely to see a return on these investments for the next few years, so you need to be patient with FB stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":510,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
