Indeed, shares of Carnival(NYSE:CCL),Royal Caribbean Cruis","content":"<p>Cruise stocks are taking a bit hit today. Indeed, shares of&nbsp;<b>Carnival</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CCL</u></b>),<b>Royal Caribbean Cruises</b>(NYSE:<b><u>RCL</u></b>) and&nbsp;<b>Norwegian Cruise Line</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NCLH</u></b>) are all slumping by at least 15% over the past week. News of the omicron variant is hammering down travel and vacation names as investors re-evaluate their current holdings. Additionally, the&nbsp;first case of the omicron variant&nbsp;in the U.S. was confirmed today in California.</p>\n<p>Yesterday, Stéphane Bancel, the CEO of&nbsp;<b>Moderna</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>), spooked investors when he noted that current vaccines may be&nbsp;less effective&nbsp;against the omicron variant.</p>\n<p>On the other hand,<b>BioNTech</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>BNTX</u></b>) co-founder Ugur Sahin relayed a more calming message: “Don’t freak out, the plan remains the same: Speed up the administration of a third booster shot.”</p>\n<p>Indeed,&nbsp;top epidemiologists&nbsp;still say that it is too early to truly understand the severity of the omicron variant. Additional data should be presented in the coming weeks from world governments and vaccine-makers. However, investors should expect more volatility in cruise stocks until the severity of the omicron variant can be accurately determined.</p>\n<p>Cruise Stocks: Can They Set Sail From Here?</p>\n<p>Investors in these three cruise liners should monitor the omicron variant situation carefully, as well as any travel and grounding restrictions that arise. It’s inevitable that some current passengers may cancel their cruise trips after hearing about the new variant.</p>\n<p>On the bright side, both Moderna and&nbsp;<b>Pfizer</b>(NYSE:<b><u>PFE</u></b>) stated that if necessary, a new vaccine for the omicron variant could be available by the first quarter of 2022.</p>\n<p>Additionally, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line already require all passengers who are 12 years and older to be fully vaccinated before boarding. Carnival is operating a bit differently and designating certain cruises as “vaccinated cruises,” where all passengers must be vaccinated. However, vaccinated cruises make up a majority of Carnival’s current cruise options.</p>\n<p>In terms of earnings, all three cruise companies will likely be unprofitable this year. This is largely due to the pandemic and lockdowns. However, they are all forecasting profitability for 2022.</p>\n<p>Additionally,&nbsp;<i>Cruise Industry News</i>&nbsp;reported today that&nbsp;239 cruise ships&nbsp;from 68 global brands are planning to set sail during December. This figure represents an additional nine cruise ships when compared to November and an additional 33 when compared to October. Of the 239 ships setting sail this month, Royal Caribbean accounts for the majority, with 20 ships. Carnival clocks in at second place with 17 ships, and Norwegian Cruise Line falls in fourth with 11 ships.</p>\n<p>This is great news for the cruise industry as people return to relaxing on the seas.

Indeed, shares of Carnival(NYSE:CCL),Royal Caribbean Cruises(NYSE:RCL) and Norwegian Cruise Line(NYSE:NCLH) are all slumping by at least 15% over the past week. News of the omicron variant is hammering down travel and vacation names as investors re-evaluate their current holdings. Additionally, the first case of the omicron variant in the U.S. was confirmed today in California.\nYesterday, Stéphane Bancel, the CEO of Moderna(NYSE:MRNA), spooked investors when he noted that current vaccines may be less effective against the omicron variant.\nOn the other hand,BioNTech(NASDAQ:BNTX) co-founder Ugur Sahin relayed a more calming message: “Don’t freak out, the plan remains the same: Speed up the administration of a third booster shot.”\nIndeed, top epidemiologists still say that it is too early to truly understand the severity of the omicron variant. Additional data should be presented in the coming weeks from world governments and vaccine-makers. However, investors should expect more volatility in cruise stocks until the severity of the omicron variant can be accurately determined.\nCruise Stocks: Can They Set Sail From Here?\nInvestors in these three cruise liners should monitor the omicron variant situation carefully, as well as any travel and grounding restrictions that arise. It’s inevitable that some current passengers may cancel their cruise trips after hearing about the new variant.\nOn the bright side, both Moderna and Pfizer(NYSE:PFE) stated that if necessary, a new vaccine for the omicron variant could be available by the first quarter of 2022.\nAdditionally, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line already require all passengers who are 12 years and older to be fully vaccinated before boarding. Carnival is operating a bit differently and designating certain cruises as “vaccinated cruises,” where all passengers must be vaccinated. However, vaccinated cruises make up a majority of Carnival’s current cruise options.\nIn terms of earnings, all three cruise companies will likely be unprofitable this year. This is largely due to the pandemic and lockdowns. However, they are all forecasting profitability for 2022.\nAdditionally, Cruise Industry News reported today that 239 cruise ships from 68 global brands are planning to set sail during December. This figure represents an additional nine cruise ships when compared to November and an additional 33 when compared to October. Of the 239 ships setting sail this month, Royal Caribbean accounts for the majority, with 20 ships. Carnival clocks in at second place with 17 ships, and Norwegian Cruise Line falls in fourth with 11 ships.\nThis is great news for the cruise industry as people return to relaxing on the seas. Investors in cruise stocks will want to see an uptick of ships setting sail in January. However, we will have to wait and see if that happens given the uncertainty surrounding the latest pandemic developments.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":747,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":603252874,"gmtCreate":1638417123356,"gmtModify":1638417123480,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What a u turn by Powell.. just to convince the senate for his reappointment?!?","listText":"What a u turn by Powell.. just to convince the senate for his reappointment?!?","text":"What a u turn by Powell.. just to convince the senate for his reappointment?!?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/603252874","repostId":"1196358645","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196358645","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1638399984,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1196358645?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-02 07:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall St turns red as Omicron reaches the United States","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196358645","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"Wall Street's major averages fell more than 1% on Wednesday after a morning rally faded as investor ","content":"<p>Wall Street's major averages fell more than 1% on Wednesday after a morning rally faded as investor angst about the latest coronavirus variant soared with the first U.S. case confirmation while the market also digested Fed comments on inflation.</p>\n<p>After having advanced as much as 1.9% by late morning, the S&amp;P 500 gave up all its gains in the afternoon along with the Dow and Nasdaq, which fell the most on the day.

Electric-truckmaker Rivian Automotive Inc. raised $13.7 billion in its U.S. listing earlier this month and has gone on to soar 47% from its offer price.\nElectric vehicle makers became investor darlings last year and their stocks have staged impressive rallies amid bets on growing demand for cleaner cars. Industry leader Tesla Inc. has almost doubled in value over the past year and billions have been raised through both IPOs and follow-on share sales.\nChinese car and battery maker BYD Co. last month raised $1.8 billion in a Hong Kong share placement, its second such deal this year. In January, the Warren Buffett-backed company fetched another $3.9 billion selling new shares.\nGrowing demand for electric cars will lead to increasing investments by the companies making batteries for clean vehicles.\nThe top 10 battery makers are expected to nearly triple their manufacturing capacity by 2022 to meet future supply commitments and position themselves for an upcoming surge in demand, according to BloombergNEF.\n“The battery companies will become a universe of their own, they are now entering a stage where massive capacity buildup requires a lot of capital to keep up with the growth of EV demand,” Steinemann said. “So far, battery companies have largely been debt financed but the next stage of their growth will be financed through a wave of IPOs.”\nOne of the largest IPOs to come out of Asia next year, and potentially globally, will be the spinoff of LG Chem Ltd.’s battery unit LG Energy Solution in South Korea, which could raise about $10 billion. It’s one of the world’s biggest battery makers after China’s Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.\nLG Energy Solution resumed the IPO process after reaching an agreement over the General Motors Co. recall of Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicles in October. It plans to submit the IPO prospectus in early December and take investor orders early next year, the Seoul Economic Daily reported.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":913,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":875688162,"gmtCreate":1637642937347,"gmtModify":1637642937347,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I hope the analysts are right","listText":"I hope the analysts are right","text":"I hope the analysts are right","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/875688162","repostId":"1192020197","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1192020197","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1637559822,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1192020197?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-22 13:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"BABA Stock: Despite Earnings Miss, Experts See 54% Upside","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192020197","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba reported disappointing earnings on November 18.

Investors quickly bid up the EV upstart's shares to a total market value of over $150 billion, placing its market capitalization nearly as high as industry giants Ford and General Motorscombined.\nBut after skyrocketing as much as 130% from its $78 initial public offering (IPO) price, Rivian's stock has shed more than 30% of its value in recent days.\nNow what\nRivian has a lot going for it. Major investors include Ford and Amazon.com, which own roughly 12% and 20% of Rivian's shares, respectively. Even after today's decline, those equity stakes are valued at approximately $13 billion and $22 billion. That gives Ford and Amazon a lot of incentive to do what they can to bolster Rivian's growth.\nFor its part, Amazon has placed an order with Rivian for a whopping 100,000 vehicles. The electric delivery vans will be a major part of the e-commerce behemoth's efforts to battle climate change.\nStill, even with the backing of Ford and Amazon, Rivian's success cannot be assured. It's likely to face intense competition from rival EV makers Tesla and Lucid, as well as a host of other challengers. Rivian's shares, therefore, are likely to remain volatile as investors assess its competitive prospects.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1133,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":876894646,"gmtCreate":1637288584621,"gmtModify":1637288584708,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh boy... bleeding&nbsp; little here.

In my previous article on PLTR, I stated that based on PLTR's current revenue trend, they were setting up to deliver $399.41 million in revenue for Q3 and $423.22 million of revenue in Q4. The consensus number was $386.56 million of revenue in Q3, and PLTR delivered $392.1 million and forecasted $418 million in Q4 2021. The reaction in premarket as the earnings call was being conducted was nothing but a sea of red as PLTR sharply declined, and each time a gap tried to fill, the next leg on the downward spiral started. The news wasn't even digested, yet people decided to either take profits, exit their position or lost faith in PLTR.</p>\n<p>What wasn't there to like in the earnings release to cause the sell-off that has been hovering in the -9.03% range? PLTR delivered 36% YoY revenue growth, added 34 new customers in Q3, and closed 54 deals worth $1 million or more. PLTR increased their remaining deal value by 50% YoY to $3.6 billion and delivered $101 million in cash from operations (26% margin), and $199 million in free cash flow (30% margin). PLTR also increased guidance for 2021 as they now expect revenue growth of 40% YoY compared to their previous projection of 30% and increased their projection in FCF to $400 million from $300 million. In addition to the numbers, PLTR announced new product platforms and use cases that have tremendous potential to drive revenue and FCF in the future. I believe this sell-off will be short-lived and I am looking at it as a buying opportunity.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8cfe1dd0e9b2c6a24ce3cb94bcfda56c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"341\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p><b>Palantir's revenue continues to expand on both the commercial and government side</b></p>\n<p>Quarter after Quarter since PLTR went public, their commercial business has expanded. After five quarters of going public, PLTR's quarterly commercial revenue has increased by $62 million or 55.36%. In Q3 2021, PLTR delivered $174 million in revenue from its commercial operations, which accounted for 44.38% of its $392.1 million quarterly revenue. Over the previous two years, PLTR's Q3 revenue has increased by 85.11% as it grew by 35.11% in Q3 2020 YoY and by another 37.01% YoY in Q3 of 2021. PLTR's commercial remaining deal value increased by 101% YoY from $1.1 billion in Q3 2020 to $2.2 billion in Q3 2021. Commercial customers are inviting PLTR to present their software solutions, and PLTR is winning their business. In Q3 2021, PLTR added 34 net new customers increasing their commercial customer base by 20% QoQ to 203. Over the past year, PLTR has seen its commercial customer base expand by 46.04% as it has grown by 64 clients from 139 to 203. Anyone who still classifies PLTR as a black box is not being accurate as the commercial market is learning about PLTR's software platforms and implementing their solutions to improve their operations.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa4084630f4e4be30a41c925c5a3fd0a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"374\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>Since Q1 of 2020, PLTR has increased its quarterly revenue by $163.1 million (71.23%) at an average quarterly growth rate of 9.43% QoQ. In Q3 of 2021, this trend stayed intact as revenue increased by $16.1 million QoQ or 4.28%. While the quarterly revenue growth slowed a bit QoQ compared to 10.26% in Q2 2021, PLTR is projecting its Q4 2021 revenue will be $418 million. PLTR is expecting to deliver another company record and generate $25.9 million (6.61%) in QoQ growth to close out the year.</p>\n<p>The same growth story applies to their total revenue in the trailing twelve months (TTM) as well. Over the last six quarters, PLTR's TTM revenue has increased by $620.6 million (76.55%) from $810.6 million to $1.43 billion. On average, PLTR's TTM revenue growth has increased by $103.42 million (9.94%) QoQ. In Q1 2020 - Q3 2020, their average QoQ revenue growth was $94.03 million, and this has increased substantially as the past three quarters have all increased by at least $105 million QoQ. In Q3 2021, PLTR increased its TTM revenue to $1.43 billion as it added $106.8 million (8.06%) in QoQ revenue growth. Just like the quarterly metric, PLTR's TTM is expected to grow QoQ by an additional $95.9 million to $1.527 billion compared to $1.51 billion in the consensus estimate. This would place PLTR's annual revenue growth YoY well ahead of their 30% projection as they would finish 2021 having increased its revenue by $434.30 million (39.75%)</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0ec6211d7ecb04785f406c7661c9124\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>I am shocked PLTR is still in the red. PLTR is a high-growth company that is now FCF positive and expanding its metrics. In the first nine months of 2020, PLTR generated -$285 million in FCF, and at the end of the first nine months of 2021, PLTR has delivered a $605 million swing as it has produced $320 million in FCF YTD. PLTR previously increased their 2021 FCF guidance to $300, and they just increased it again to $400+ million. In the span of three months, PLTR increased its FCF projection by an additional 33.33%. In Q3, PLTR's FCF margin was 30%, and they are projecting $400+ million in FCF for 2021. At the very minimum, this would mean they will tack on an additional $80 million in FCF for 2021. If PLTR delivers $1.527 billion in revenue and $400 million in FCF, its 2021 FCF margin would be 26.2%. PLTR is still projecting 30% annual revenue growth YoY thru 2025, which would place their 2025 revenue at $4.36 billion based on their projection of $1.527 for 2021. At PLTR's current FCF margin, they would generate $1.14 billion in FCF in 2025. Considering PLTR's current trends, if they exceeded their projections and grew at 35% YoY, it would place their 2025 revenue at $5.07 billion. At their current FCF margin, they would then generate $1.33 billion in FCF in 2025.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87cff0d5c5ef70ea6926a1323c77bfe4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"306\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: PLTR)</span></p>\n<p>PLTR is firing on all cylinders. YoY, their Q3 revenue grew by 36%, they raised guidance on their FCF for a 2nd time from $300 million to $400+ million and have increased their annual revenue growth guidance from 30% to roughly 40%. PLTR is still maintaining its future revenue outlook of 30% annually YoY and is creating some impressive margins. PLTR's commercial revenue grew YoY by 37%, and their government revenue grew by 34% YoY in Q3. PLTR closed at least 54 deals worth at least $1 million during Q3, and 33 of those were at least $5 million in revenue, and 18 were at least $10 million in revenue. PLTR's growth metrics are impressive, and I am expecting them to under promise and over deliver going forward.</p>\n<p><b>Palantir is entering two new sectors that are going to be huge, carbon emissions, and crypto</b></p>\n<p>In the past, I have written about future opportunities with the government, Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), and International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM). On today's earnings call, PLTR introduced significant information surrounding two new products they will be offering for carbon emissions and crypto.</p>\n<p>There has been a fundamental shift in the USA over climate, and President Biden rejoined the Paris Agreement to reengage in tackling climate change. Part ofthe planis to reach a net-zero emission economy-wide by 2050. Recently President Biden at the United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, pledged to work with the European Union and dozens of other nations to reduce overall methane emissions worldwide by 30% by 2030. No matter what your stance on climate is, there are many who believe we need to lower emissions, and many nations are working on a goal. To comply, companies such as&nbsp;Exxon Mobil(NYSE:XOM)&nbsp;are conducting longer-term research on several promising innovations with outside organizations, including direct air capture technology to&nbsp;scrub emissions out of the air&nbsp;and carbonate fuel cells&nbsp;to capture industrial emissions&nbsp;from flue gas streams of power plants or manufacturing facilities. Carbon emissions management is already a booming business, and PLTR is creating a module on Foundry to present a single pane to view revenue, margin, production, and all emissions so companies can manage outcomes more efficiently. Personally, I believe this has enormous potential to drive revenue for PLTR in the future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2386d938e7f452a340dbb130de508f6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>The second huge prospect that PLTR discussed was Foundry for crypto. It looks like PLTR is leveraging their anti-money laundering and know-your-customer expertise. PLTR has worked with several governments over the years to find compliance issues with the world's largest banks and help those banks respond and strengthen their compliance programs. This makes complete sense, and when you go back to the contracts, PLTR has been awarded from the IRS and SEC (discussed in previous articles). In Q3 alone, PLTR inked 6 contracts with the IRS. If I had to guess, PLTR's software would be utilized by the IRS and the SEC on the government side and adopted on the commercial side by banks and crypto exchanges. Currently, in the past 24 hours,Coinbase(NASDAQ:COIN)&nbsp;is showing that Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has incurred a trading volume of $43.8 billion. I think PLTR will end up driving future revenue from both government and commercial contracts from its Foundry for Crypto.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53c762e27799c80dbaa9914bb98a6a10\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"234\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Federal Procurement Database)</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/005d57c6c5c926b35eac100fa35c7415\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>PLTR has become another statistic of the market misunderstanding its earnings and selling the news when the news was great. What more does anyone want PLTR to do? This was an excellent quarter with revenue increasing 36% YoY in Q3, FCF came in at $119 million with a 30% margin, and PLTR closed 54 deals worth more than $1 million each. PLTR beats revenue estimates, increases guidance for its full-year revenue than for the 2nd time, increases its FCF guidance. This was a sell the news on all positive factors, which is creating a buying opportunity. I am staying long on PLTR and plan to add to my position if the sell-off continues.</p>\n<p><b>Seeking Alpha Marketplace</b></p>\n<p>I will be launching a subscription service called Barbell Capital on the Seeking Alpha Marketplace.

In my previous article on PLTR, I stated that based on PLTR's current revenue trend, they were setting up to deliver $399.41 million in revenue for Q3 and $423.22 million of revenue in Q4. The consensus number was $386.56 million of revenue in Q3, and PLTR delivered $392.1 million and forecasted $418 million in Q4 2021. The reaction in premarket as the earnings call was being conducted was nothing but a sea of red as PLTR sharply declined, and each time a gap tried to fill, the next leg on the downward spiral started. The news wasn't even digested, yet people decided to either take profits, exit their position or lost faith in PLTR.\nWhat wasn't there to like in the earnings release to cause the sell-off that has been hovering in the -9.03% range? PLTR delivered 36% YoY revenue growth, added 34 new customers in Q3, and closed 54 deals worth $1 million or more. PLTR increased their remaining deal value by 50% YoY to $3.6 billion and delivered $101 million in cash from operations (26% margin), and $199 million in free cash flow (30% margin). PLTR also increased guidance for 2021 as they now expect revenue growth of 40% YoY compared to their previous projection of 30% and increased their projection in FCF to $400 million from $300 million. In addition to the numbers, PLTR announced new product platforms and use cases that have tremendous potential to drive revenue and FCF in the future. I believe this sell-off will be short-lived and I am looking at it as a buying opportunity.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nPalantir's revenue continues to expand on both the commercial and government side\nQuarter after Quarter since PLTR went public, their commercial business has expanded. After five quarters of going public, PLTR's quarterly commercial revenue has increased by $62 million or 55.36%. In Q3 2021, PLTR delivered $174 million in revenue from its commercial operations, which accounted for 44.38% of its $392.1 million quarterly revenue. Over the previous two years, PLTR's Q3 revenue has increased by 85.11% as it grew by 35.11% in Q3 2020 YoY and by another 37.01% YoY in Q3 of 2021. PLTR's commercial remaining deal value increased by 101% YoY from $1.1 billion in Q3 2020 to $2.2 billion in Q3 2021. Commercial customers are inviting PLTR to present their software solutions, and PLTR is winning their business. In Q3 2021, PLTR added 34 net new customers increasing their commercial customer base by 20% QoQ to 203. Over the past year, PLTR has seen its commercial customer base expand by 46.04% as it has grown by 64 clients from 139 to 203. Anyone who still classifies PLTR as a black box is not being accurate as the commercial market is learning about PLTR's software platforms and implementing their solutions to improve their operations.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)\nSince Q1 of 2020, PLTR has increased its quarterly revenue by $163.1 million (71.23%) at an average quarterly growth rate of 9.43% QoQ. In Q3 of 2021, this trend stayed intact as revenue increased by $16.1 million QoQ or 4.28%. While the quarterly revenue growth slowed a bit QoQ compared to 10.26% in Q2 2021, PLTR is projecting its Q4 2021 revenue will be $418 million. PLTR is expecting to deliver another company record and generate $25.9 million (6.61%) in QoQ growth to close out the year.\nThe same growth story applies to their total revenue in the trailing twelve months (TTM) as well. Over the last six quarters, PLTR's TTM revenue has increased by $620.6 million (76.55%) from $810.6 million to $1.43 billion. On average, PLTR's TTM revenue growth has increased by $103.42 million (9.94%) QoQ. In Q1 2020 - Q3 2020, their average QoQ revenue growth was $94.03 million, and this has increased substantially as the past three quarters have all increased by at least $105 million QoQ. In Q3 2021, PLTR increased its TTM revenue to $1.43 billion as it added $106.8 million (8.06%) in QoQ revenue growth. Just like the quarterly metric, PLTR's TTM is expected to grow QoQ by an additional $95.9 million to $1.527 billion compared to $1.51 billion in the consensus estimate. This would place PLTR's annual revenue growth YoY well ahead of their 30% projection as they would finish 2021 having increased its revenue by $434.30 million (39.75%)\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)\nI am shocked PLTR is still in the red. PLTR is a high-growth company that is now FCF positive and expanding its metrics. In the first nine months of 2020, PLTR generated -$285 million in FCF, and at the end of the first nine months of 2021, PLTR has delivered a $605 million swing as it has produced $320 million in FCF YTD. PLTR previously increased their 2021 FCF guidance to $300, and they just increased it again to $400+ million. In the span of three months, PLTR increased its FCF projection by an additional 33.33%. In Q3, PLTR's FCF margin was 30%, and they are projecting $400+ million in FCF for 2021. At the very minimum, this would mean they will tack on an additional $80 million in FCF for 2021. If PLTR delivers $1.527 billion in revenue and $400 million in FCF, its 2021 FCF margin would be 26.2%. PLTR is still projecting 30% annual revenue growth YoY thru 2025, which would place their 2025 revenue at $4.36 billion based on their projection of $1.527 for 2021. At PLTR's current FCF margin, they would generate $1.14 billion in FCF in 2025. Considering PLTR's current trends, if they exceeded their projections and grew at 35% YoY, it would place their 2025 revenue at $5.07 billion. At their current FCF margin, they would then generate $1.33 billion in FCF in 2025.\n(Source: PLTR)\nPLTR is firing on all cylinders. YoY, their Q3 revenue grew by 36%, they raised guidance on their FCF for a 2nd time from $300 million to $400+ million and have increased their annual revenue growth guidance from 30% to roughly 40%. PLTR is still maintaining its future revenue outlook of 30% annually YoY and is creating some impressive margins. PLTR's commercial revenue grew YoY by 37%, and their government revenue grew by 34% YoY in Q3. PLTR closed at least 54 deals worth at least $1 million during Q3, and 33 of those were at least $5 million in revenue, and 18 were at least $10 million in revenue. PLTR's growth metrics are impressive, and I am expecting them to under promise and over deliver going forward.\nPalantir is entering two new sectors that are going to be huge, carbon emissions, and crypto\nIn the past, I have written about future opportunities with the government, Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), and International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM). On today's earnings call, PLTR introduced significant information surrounding two new products they will be offering for carbon emissions and crypto.\nThere has been a fundamental shift in the USA over climate, and President Biden rejoined the Paris Agreement to reengage in tackling climate change. Part ofthe planis to reach a net-zero emission economy-wide by 2050. Recently President Biden at the United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, pledged to work with the European Union and dozens of other nations to reduce overall methane emissions worldwide by 30% by 2030. No matter what your stance on climate is, there are many who believe we need to lower emissions, and many nations are working on a goal. To comply, companies such as Exxon Mobil(NYSE:XOM) are conducting longer-term research on several promising innovations with outside organizations, including direct air capture technology to scrub emissions out of the air and carbonate fuel cells to capture industrial emissions from flue gas streams of power plants or manufacturing facilities. Carbon emissions management is already a booming business, and PLTR is creating a module on Foundry to present a single pane to view revenue, margin, production, and all emissions so companies can manage outcomes more efficiently. Personally, I believe this has enormous potential to drive revenue for PLTR in the future.\n(Source: Palantir)\nThe second huge prospect that PLTR discussed was Foundry for crypto. It looks like PLTR is leveraging their anti-money laundering and know-your-customer expertise. PLTR has worked with several governments over the years to find compliance issues with the world's largest banks and help those banks respond and strengthen their compliance programs. This makes complete sense, and when you go back to the contracts, PLTR has been awarded from the IRS and SEC (discussed in previous articles). In Q3 alone, PLTR inked 6 contracts with the IRS. If I had to guess, PLTR's software would be utilized by the IRS and the SEC on the government side and adopted on the commercial side by banks and crypto exchanges. Currently, in the past 24 hours,Coinbase(NASDAQ:COIN) is showing that Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has incurred a trading volume of $43.8 billion. I think PLTR will end up driving future revenue from both government and commercial contracts from its Foundry for Crypto.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Federal Procurement Database)\n(Source: Palantir)\nConclusion\nPLTR has become another statistic of the market misunderstanding its earnings and selling the news when the news was great. What more does anyone want PLTR to do? This was an excellent quarter with revenue increasing 36% YoY in Q3, FCF came in at $119 million with a 30% margin, and PLTR closed 54 deals worth more than $1 million each. PLTR beats revenue estimates, increases guidance for its full-year revenue than for the 2nd time, increases its FCF guidance. This was a sell the news on all positive factors, which is creating a buying opportunity. I am staying long on PLTR and plan to add to my position if the sell-off continues.\nSeeking Alpha Marketplace\nI will be launching a subscription service called Barbell Capital on the Seeking Alpha Marketplace.

It will also no doubt highlight a few run-for-hills scenarios like what we saw after a few October big tech earnings releases that fell short of expectations. But let's focus on the positives this month.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> markets should be on the radar of every investor. And the news about innovation, revenue outlooks, and adopting an attitude that the \"future is now\" all offer the potential to produce millionaires out of even the most average investors if they are willing to take a long-term approach.</p>\n<p>With all that in mind, here are three predictions about November markets.</p>\n<h2>1. The market opportunity in EVs and self-driving technology will climb higher</h2>\n<p>It's easy to see the long-term growth potential in the automotive market as it relates to electric vehicles (EVs). Automakers like <b>Tesla</b> are an obvious example. But also <b>Chargepoint Holdings, </b>which is building out the largest EV charging network in the world,&nbsp;and my favorite turnaround play, <b>BlackBerry, </b>with its increasingly popular QNX operating system for EVs. As earnings results come out this month and an initial public offering from electric truck maker Rivian launches next week, the EV hype is likely to heat up further in November.</p>\n<p>Supply chain constraints have raised concerns throughout the automotive market this year because, without the necessary raw materials and parts, particularly semiconductors, unfinished vehicles are left sitting waiting for components. In May it was expected that we would see a shortfall of 3.9 million vehicles produced this year.

The metaverse will see big gains virtually and market-wise</h2>\n<p>Running parallel with the growth in the material world of electric and autonomous vehicles is the digital world of virtual and augmented reality known as the metaverse. The companies driving the future of the metaverse can be found in the holdings of the <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF</a></b> (NYSEMKT:META).</p>\n<p>Our kids may be more familiar with the metaverse than we are.

As advancements in technology take us into the future, demand will swell and revenue will be generated. And it will most likely be multiple companies reaping the benefits.</p>\n<p>Investors looking to benefit from it all may be well served by the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF. It was launched on June 30, and it is quickly gaining trading volume. As of August, the ETF had $50 million in assets under management (AUM). By September, AUM doubled to $100 million. Today, the number sits at $176 million, while trading volume in the ETF has also risen. The average daily volume is at 300,000, while more recently it has seen daily volume exceeding 1 million shares on select days.</p>\n<p>Its top 10 holdings are an impressive list: <b>Nvidia</b>, Microsoft, <b>Roblox</b>, Meta Platforms, <b>Unity Software</b>, <b>Immersion Corp.</b>, <b>Autodesk</b>, <b>Sea Limited</b>, <b>Amazon</b>, and <b>Tencent Holdings</b>.</p>\n<p>I wouldn't be surprised to see the average 20-day daily volume double by the end of this month, combined with a 10% gain in the ETF share price for November.</p>\n<h2>3. Apple is still fresh and its stock will top 52-week highs</h2>\n<p>The intelligent EV market and the metaverse intersect in what has become a staple company and foundational portfolio stock: <b>Apple&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL). According to multiple sources, Apple is developing eyeglasses for the metaverse, while also working on self-driving technology and electric mobility to serve the vehicular market while potentially developing a self-driving car of its own.</p>\n<p>The future of our technology world is upon us, and November could be a pivotal entry point for investors into many of these stocks that will provide big gains for years to come.</p>\n<p>When Apple came out with a miss on quarterly revenue at the end of October, management noted that supply constraints impacted the company at a cost of $6 billion. But <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> thing that seems to keep getting overlooked during these earnings conference calls is that Apple's revenue continues to climb year over year regardless of whether the consensus estimates are accurate or overblown.</p>\n<p>The company continues to benefit greatly from iPhone sales, but unit sales no longer make up even half of its total revenue. Per Statista, from 2012 to now, Apple has seen iPhone sales decline from 51% of total revenue to 49%. Meanwhile, services revenue has grown from 6.5% to 21%. The gross margin on services is now 60%, whereas iPhone profit margin is closer to 35%. So as the company generates more services offerings, and innovative technology progresses, the dust will settle from concerns over supply constraints and a revenue miss, and a clearer picture will emerge.</p>\n<p>My November prediction is that Apple stock will top its 52-week high of $157.26 a share.</p>\n<h2>Seeing the forest through the trees</h2>\n<p>October was a month of volatility and concern over supply constraints and earnings warnings. But when those warnings lead to nervous selling based on short-term what-ifs and fear of the unknown, the long-term investor is provided with an opportunity.

It will also no doubt highlight a few run-for-hills scenarios like what we saw after a few October big tech earnings releases that fell short of expectations. But let's focus on the positives this month.\nTwo markets should be on the radar of every investor. And the news about innovation, revenue outlooks, and adopting an attitude that the \"future is now\" all offer the potential to produce millionaires out of even the most average investors if they are willing to take a long-term approach.\nWith all that in mind, here are three predictions about November markets.\n1. The market opportunity in EVs and self-driving technology will climb higher\nIt's easy to see the long-term growth potential in the automotive market as it relates to electric vehicles (EVs). Automakers like Tesla are an obvious example. But also Chargepoint Holdings, which is building out the largest EV charging network in the world, and my favorite turnaround play, BlackBerry, with its increasingly popular QNX operating system for EVs. As earnings results come out this month and an initial public offering from electric truck maker Rivian launches next week, the EV hype is likely to heat up further in November.\nSupply chain constraints have raised concerns throughout the automotive market this year because, without the necessary raw materials and parts, particularly semiconductors, unfinished vehicles are left sitting waiting for components. In May it was expected that we would see a shortfall of 3.9 million vehicles produced this year. That number was revised upward in September to 7.7 million, and it's expected to cost automakers an estimated $210 billion this year.\nBut delays present opportunities. Eventually, the supply chain will correct itself, though it may take until early 2023. In these uncertain times, companies that best manage costs, optimize the resources available, and stay on the planned path toward growth will reward investors.\nTake Ford (NYSE:F), for example. The company posted third-quarter results on Oct. 27, beating consensus estimates by 9.8% and 89% on quarterly revenue and earnings, respectively. It also raised its full-year revenue guidance by 15%, and topped off its report with news of a reinstated quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share to take effect on Dec. 1.\nDuring the earnings call, Ford management stated that although supply constraints continue, the third quarter was better than the previous quarter in terms of resource availability. This points toward growth even in the face of supply headwinds, powered by an ongoing revolution in the EV market. Analysts project the EV market to progress at a compound annual growth rate of 24.3% through 2028.\n2. The metaverse will see big gains virtually and market-wise\nRunning parallel with the growth in the material world of electric and autonomous vehicles is the digital world of virtual and augmented reality known as the metaverse. The companies driving the future of the metaverse can be found in the holdings of the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF (NYSEMKT:META).\nOur kids may be more familiar with the metaverse than we are. It's evidenced in numerous video console games such as Fortnite, Minecraft, and Flight Sim, where players create virtual worlds, interacting with each other in these metaverse creations.\nMicrosoft announced earlier this week that it intends to expand on its Microsoft Teams package by developing metaverse technology for collaboration using 3D avatars that represent meeting attendees who are present but would rather not be on camera. Eventually this will either coincide or compete with developments by Meta Platforms (formerly known as Facebook) as it rebrands and expands its offerings along the same lines.\nFor long-term investors, these trends create an almost no-lose scenario. As advancements in technology take us into the future, demand will swell and revenue will be generated. And it will most likely be multiple companies reaping the benefits.\nInvestors looking to benefit from it all may be well served by the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF.

The average daily volume is at 300,000, while more recently it has seen daily volume exceeding 1 million shares on select days.\nIts top 10 holdings are an impressive list: Nvidia, Microsoft, Roblox, Meta Platforms, Unity Software, Immersion Corp., Autodesk, Sea Limited, Amazon, and Tencent Holdings.\nI wouldn't be surprised to see the average 20-day daily volume double by the end of this month, combined with a 10% gain in the ETF share price for November.\n3. Apple is still fresh and its stock will top 52-week highs\nThe intelligent EV market and the metaverse intersect in what has become a staple company and foundational portfolio stock: Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). According to multiple sources, Apple is developing eyeglasses for the metaverse, while also working on self-driving technology and electric mobility to serve the vehicular market while potentially developing a self-driving car of its own.\nThe future of our technology world is upon us, and November could be a pivotal entry point for investors into many of these stocks that will provide big gains for years to come.\nWhen Apple came out with a miss on quarterly revenue at the end of October, management noted that supply constraints impacted the company at a cost of $6 billion.

The firm’s CEO, David Trainer, says Tesla shares could fall as much as 88%, to roughly $150 a share.</p>\n<p>His argument, which isn’t the first extreme bear or bull case Tesla (ticker: TSLA) investors have had to weigh, is mainly based on math.</p>\n<p>Tesla stock, which has risen about 57% over the past month, was little changed in premarket trading Friday after gaining up 1.3% Thursday afternoon, while the&nbsp;S&amp;P 500&nbsp;advanced 0.4% and the&nbsp;Dow Jones Industrial Average&nbsp;finished off 0.1%. Strong third-quarter deliveries, earnings, and a sale of 100,000 vehicles to the rental-car company&nbsp;Hertz&nbsp;(HTZZ) have sent the stock through the roof.</p>\n<p>Today, Tesla is worth roughly $1.2 trillion–a figure Trainer says makes no sense. Tesla didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.</p>\n<p>“The $1.2 trillion valuation implies Tesla owns 118% of the entire global passenger EV market and becomes more profitable than&nbsp;Apple&nbsp;[AAPL] by 2030,” wrote Trainer in a Thursday report. His work looked at what kind of sales and earnings the company would have to achieve to be worth that much.</p>\n<p>Trainer believes Tesla would have to sell almost 31 million vehicles in 2030 to justify the current valuation. That is more than he expects the entire industry to produce, based on figures from the International Energy Agency. The base case in the IEA’s 2021 outlook for electric vehicles projects annual global sales of about 28 million EVs at the end of the decade.</p>\n<p>To be sure, that IEA report was published in April, before many auto makers committed to spending billions of dollars on vehicle electrification and battery-production capacity. It was in August that President Joe Biden announced his <a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/articles/tesla-musk-biden-ev-stock-51628202850\" target=\"_blank\">goal for EVs</a> to account for 50% of new-car sales by 2030. And the IEA report includes a best-case scenario with about 47 million EVs sold around the world annually by 2030.</p>\n<p>There are, of course, Tesla bulls, and most of them don’t believe Tesla is going to sell 31 million cars a year by 2030. Morgan Stanley’s Adam Jonas, who rates the stock at Buy and has a $1,200 price target for shares, predicts annual sales of about 8 million units by then.</p>\n<p>Jonas believes Tesla will be more profitable than traditional auto makers. But Trainer assumes that Tesla will have operating profit margins in line with those of General Motors&nbsp;(GM). With 31 million vehicles sold, that might mean Tesla earns $131 billion in 2030 operating profit, higher than the $100 billion-plus Apple is pulling in now, he said.</p>\n<p>But if Jonas’s call for Tesla to sell 8 million vehicles in 2030 is correct, Trainer said, that would yield earnings of about $30 billion annually, assuming Elon Musk’s company only matches GM’s net operating after-tax profit margin of 8.5%.</p>\n<p>Recently, of course, some of Tesla’s profit margins have been industry-leading, which is no surprise given the popularity of the vehicles and the fact that the company doesn’t have the pension obligations its older rivals face. Third-quarter gross margins exceeded GM’s,Ford Motor‘s (F), and&nbsp;Volkswagen’s&nbsp;(VOW3. Germany), to name a few.</p>\n<p>Longer-term margins are hard to predict, though Trainer told <i>Barron’s</i> he thinks his assumption is fair. They depend on factors such as software sales—all auto makers are offering software-enabled features that can be sold on subscriptions—as well as battery costs.</p>\n<p>“Putting it all together: Tesla provides poor risk/reward,” Trainer wrote.</p>\n<p>His arguments are unlikely to sway the many bulls who follow the stock. There are 14 analysts, almost one-third of the 44 Bloomberg tracks, with target prices that value Tesla at $1 trillion or more.</p>\n<p>The bulls believe Tesla is the EV leader and will increase its sales and production volume at 50% a year on average for the foreseeable future. They also believe EVs will be more profitable than traditional vehicles and that Tesla will maintain its cost leadership. Many bulls also believe that Tesla’s power-storage business, plus a robotaxi operation it could launch if it succeeds in developing self-driving cars, will generate significant sales.</p>\n<p>Time will tell who is right. The bulls are feeling good these days given Tesla’s strong results. And the bears are staring agape at the stock’s valuation, which essentially matches all of the world’s traditional auto makers combined.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Tesla Stock Is Overvalued by $1 Trillion, Analyst Says.

The firm’s CEO, David Trainer, says Tesla shares could fall as much as 88%, to roughly $150 a share.\nHis argument, which isn’t the first extreme bear or bull case Tesla (ticker: TSLA) investors have had to weigh, is mainly based on math.\nTesla stock, which has risen about 57% over the past month, was little changed in premarket trading Friday after gaining up 1.3% Thursday afternoon, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.4% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished off 0.1%. Strong third-quarter deliveries, earnings, and a sale of 100,000 vehicles to the rental-car company Hertz (HTZZ) have sent the stock through the roof.\nToday, Tesla is worth roughly $1.2 trillion–a figure Trainer says makes no sense. Tesla didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.\n“The $1.2 trillion valuation implies Tesla owns 118% of the entire global passenger EV market and becomes more profitable than Apple [AAPL] by 2030,” wrote Trainer in a Thursday report. His work looked at what kind of sales and earnings the company would have to achieve to be worth that much.\nTrainer believes Tesla would have to sell almost 31 million vehicles in 2030 to justify the current valuation. That is more than he expects the entire industry to produce, based on figures from the International Energy Agency. The base case in the IEA’s 2021 outlook for electric vehicles projects annual global sales of about 28 million EVs at the end of the decade.\nTo be sure, that IEA report was published in April, before many auto makers committed to spending billions of dollars on vehicle electrification and battery-production capacity. It was in August that President Joe Biden announced his goal for EVs to account for 50% of new-car sales by 2030. And the IEA report includes a best-case scenario with about 47 million EVs sold around the world annually by 2030.\nThere are, of course, Tesla bulls, and most of them don’t believe Tesla is going to sell 31 million cars a year by 2030. Morgan Stanley’s Adam Jonas, who rates the stock at Buy and has a $1,200 price target for shares, predicts annual sales of about 8 million units by then.\nJonas believes Tesla will be more profitable than traditional auto makers. But Trainer assumes that Tesla will have operating profit margins in line with those of General Motors (GM). With 31 million vehicles sold, that might mean Tesla earns $131 billion in 2030 operating profit, higher than the $100 billion-plus Apple is pulling in now, he said.\nBut if Jonas’s call for Tesla to sell 8 million vehicles in 2030 is correct, Trainer said, that would yield earnings of about $30 billion annually, assuming Elon Musk’s company only matches GM’s net operating after-tax profit margin of 8.5%.\nRecently, of course, some of Tesla’s profit margins have been industry-leading, which is no surprise given the popularity of the vehicles and the fact that the company doesn’t have the pension obligations its older rivals face. Third-quarter gross margins exceeded GM’s,Ford Motor‘s (F), and Volkswagen’s (VOW3. Germany), to name a few.\nLonger-term margins are hard to predict, though Trainer told Barron’s he thinks his assumption is fair. They depend on factors such as software sales—all auto makers are offering software-enabled features that can be sold on subscriptions—as well as battery costs.\n“Putting it all together: Tesla provides poor risk/reward,” Trainer wrote.\nHis arguments are unlikely to sway the many bulls who follow the stock. There are 14 analysts, almost one-third of the 44 Bloomberg tracks, with target prices that value Tesla at $1 trillion or more.\nThe bulls believe Tesla is the EV leader and will increase its sales and production volume at 50% a year on average for the foreseeable future. They also believe EVs will be more profitable than traditional vehicles and that Tesla will maintain its cost leadership. Many bulls also believe that Tesla’s power-storage business, plus a robotaxi operation it could launch if it succeeds in developing self-driving cars, will generate significant sales.\nTime will tell who is right. The bulls are feeling good these days given Tesla’s strong results. And the bears are staring agape at the stock’s valuation, which essentially matches all of the world’s traditional auto makers combined.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":425,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":846255784,"gmtCreate":1636089231105,"gmtModify":1636089283501,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","listText":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","text":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/846255784","repostId":"1105927429","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":336,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":846266000,"gmtCreate":1636087200491,"gmtModify":1636087200591,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It just keep going","listText":"It just keep going","text":"It just keep going","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/846266000","repostId":"1128227989","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1128227989","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636067303,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1128227989?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-05 07:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500, Nasdaq extend record streaks, with boost from chip, growth shares","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1128227989","media":"Reuters","summary":" - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq rose on Thursday, extending their streaks of record high closes to six sessions, as chipmaker stocks surged following Qualcomm’s strong financial forecast and investors digested the Federal Reserve’s decision to start reducing its monthly bond purchases.The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a slim loss, ending its streak of record closes at four.

But do fundamentals matter much in today’s highly speculative market?</p>\n<p><b>What to expect for Q3 earnings</b></p>\n<p>Rivian and other big EV names, even though they’re in the automotive industry, are listed as technology stocks. These companies see themselves as technological game-changers – members of a new transportation paradigm that’s free from fossil fuels.</p>\n<p>A growth-centric viewpoint goes partway to explaining why companies like Tesla&nbsp;and Rivian, even though they make far fewer vehicles per year than traditional automotive names like Ford and General Motors, have larger market capitalizations. The market is pricing in disruptive technologies that could, potentially, turn the entire automotive industry on its head.</p>\n<p>But from a purely fundamentals-based perspective, a $100 billion market cap is almost impossible to justify right now, and it may not even be justified several years down the road.</p>\n<p>Rivian has generated zero revenue so far and its&nbsp;actual production capacity&nbsp;is 150,000 units annually. If we assume production reaches peak capacity, Rivian's equity would currently be valued at about $675,000 per electric vehicle produced.</p>\n<p>Ford, by comparison, is valued at $20,470 per vehicle produced, considering&nbsp;its 2020 production output. The company also&nbsp;generated $127 billion&nbsp;in revenue during 2020.</p>\n<p>Since Rivian’s vehicles aren’t rolling into dealerships yet, sentiment on earnings day will be primarily (if not purely) speculative. Possible catalysts for movement including rising new orders, the launching of new technologies, or the announcement of another major partnership.</p>\n<p>Therefore, even without sales yet, there are plenty of reasons Rivian’s stock could rally to record gains.</p>\n<p><b>Puts or calls? Or maybe both?</b></p>\n<p>Traders willing to join in on Rivian’s “earnings play” may find options to be the best move. Given the high speculation surrounding Rivian, it’s likely that this EV makers’ stock will either jump or plummet post-earnings. A long straddle strategy could see solid gains if this indeed turns out to be the case.</p>\n<p>A long straddle strategy involves buying both a call and a put option for the same underlying stock and for the same expiry date. Long straddles will come out ahead as long as there’s a significant move in the price of the underlying stock – the direction of the move doesn’t matter. Such strategies are often used in the context of high-volatility earnings bets.</p>\n<p>Of course, a long straddle doesn’t guarantee outrageous profits. Rivian’s post-earnings share price could move far less than anticipated, meaning that the calls and puts could all expire worthless. Also, heavy options buying in anticipation of RIVN’s Q3 earnings could drive up the price of both puts and calls, eating away at potential profit from the trade.</p>\n<p><b>Should investors buy Rivian ahead of earnings?</b></p>\n<p>According to Wall Street experts, Rivian stock is a “moderate buy” ahead of earnings — the consensus suggests that, despite its sky-high market cap, Rivian stock is still undervalued. The current average price target for the company is $135, which implies a 16% upside.</p>\n<p>The most bullish rating comes from Bank of America Securities analyst John Murphy, who sees 46% upside ahead for the stock,forecasting a $170 price target. Murphy sees Rivian standing out among other electric vehicle manufacturers with its “extremely comprehensive and well-constructed business strategy, in addition to solid/innovative technology and interesting/attractive product, validated by a key anchor customer (Amazon.com),”.</p>\n<p>Baird’s George Gianarikas thinks Rivian is the&nbsp;only EV maker that can truly compete&nbsp;with Tesla. The analyst sees Rivian’s promising approach to the EV market, its robust balance sheet, and its partnership with Amazon as being catalysts for its share price reaching $150 in the next twelve months.</p>\n<p>But not everyone on the Street is bullish on RIVN.

Here is what investors should look for heading into this EV maker’s third-quarter earnings.\nElectric vehicle giant Rivian will report its earnings on December 16 for the first time since its massively hyped IPO in early November.\nRivian's phenomenal debut rally has led the EV maker to achieve a larger market capitalization than traditional American automaker giants such as General Motors and Ford, even though the company hasn't reported any revenue yet.\nFigure 1: Rivian's R1T pickup truck on RIVN stock IPO.\nFrom a fundamentals perspective, Rivian has a big challenge ahead in proving that it deserves to be valued as a $100 billion company. But do fundamentals matter much in today’s highly speculative market?\nWhat to expect for Q3 earnings\nRivian and other big EV names, even though they’re in the automotive industry, are listed as technology stocks. These companies see themselves as technological game-changers – members of a new transportation paradigm that’s free from fossil fuels.\nA growth-centric viewpoint goes partway to explaining why companies like Tesla and Rivian, even though they make far fewer vehicles per year than traditional automotive names like Ford and General Motors, have larger market capitalizations. The market is pricing in disruptive technologies that could, potentially, turn the entire automotive industry on its head.\nBut from a purely fundamentals-based perspective, a $100 billion market cap is almost impossible to justify right now, and it may not even be justified several years down the road.\nRivian has generated zero revenue so far and its actual production capacity is 150,000 units annually. If we assume production reaches peak capacity, Rivian's equity would currently be valued at about $675,000 per electric vehicle produced.\nFord, by comparison, is valued at $20,470 per vehicle produced, considering its 2020 production output. The company also generated $127 billion in revenue during 2020.\nSince Rivian’s vehicles aren’t rolling into dealerships yet, sentiment on earnings day will be primarily (if not purely) speculative. Possible catalysts for movement including rising new orders, the launching of new technologies, or the announcement of another major partnership.\nTherefore, even without sales yet, there are plenty of reasons Rivian’s stock could rally to record gains.\nPuts or calls? Or maybe both?\nTraders willing to join in on Rivian’s “earnings play” may find options to be the best move. Given the high speculation surrounding Rivian, it’s likely that this EV makers’ stock will either jump or plummet post-earnings. A long straddle strategy could see solid gains if this indeed turns out to be the case.\nA long straddle strategy involves buying both a call and a put option for the same underlying stock and for the same expiry date. Long straddles will come out ahead as long as there’s a significant move in the price of the underlying stock – the direction of the move doesn’t matter. Such strategies are often used in the context of high-volatility earnings bets.\nOf course, a long straddle doesn’t guarantee outrageous profits. Rivian’s post-earnings share price could move far less than anticipated, meaning that the calls and puts could all expire worthless. Also, heavy options buying in anticipation of RIVN’s Q3 earnings could drive up the price of both puts and calls, eating away at potential profit from the trade.\nShould investors buy Rivian ahead of earnings?\nAccording to Wall Street experts, Rivian stock is a “moderate buy” ahead of earnings — the consensus suggests that, despite its sky-high market cap, Rivian stock is still undervalued. The current average price target for the company is $135, which implies a 16% upside.\nThe most bullish rating comes from Bank of America Securities analyst John Murphy, who sees 46% upside ahead for the stock,forecasting a $170 price target. Murphy sees Rivian standing out among other electric vehicle manufacturers with its “extremely comprehensive and well-constructed business strategy, in addition to solid/innovative technology and interesting/attractive product, validated by a key anchor customer (Amazon.com),”.\nBaird’s George Gianarikas thinks Rivian is the only EV maker that can truly compete with Tesla. The analyst sees Rivian’s promising approach to the EV market, its robust balance sheet, and its partnership with Amazon as being catalysts for its share price reaching $150 in the next twelve months.\nBut not everyone on the Street is bullish on RIVN. Goldman Sach sanalyst Mark Delainey is skeptical, with a neutral rating on Rivian and a $94 price target, implying a nearly 19% downside. Even though he finds Rivian’s product set attractive and sees the company’s brand presence as growing, Delainey believes that historical automotive industry data show how hard it is for newcomers to scale – even if those newcomers are EV manufacturers. The analyst also projects about $20 billion of cash burn from Q4 of 2021 through the end of 2025.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":892,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":879755986,"gmtCreate":1636778152082,"gmtModify":1636778152082,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Looks like a good investment.&nbsp;","listText":"Looks like a good investment.&nbsp;","text":"Looks like a good investment.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/879755986","repostId":"1129543601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129543601","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636770982,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1129543601?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-13 10:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Q3 Beat, Increased FCF, Raises Guidance But Sells Off Creating An Opportunity","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129543601","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nPalantir delivered revenue growth QoQ of 36% while generating $119 million in FCF creating ","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Palantir delivered revenue growth QoQ of 36% while generating $119 million in FCF creating a 30% margin.</li>\n <li>Palantir's commercial revenue increased 37%, and government revenue grew by 34% YoY in Q3 showing strong forward growth trends.</li>\n <li>Palantir closed 54 deals in Q3 2021 with at least $1 million in contract value with 33 valued at $5+ million and 18 at $10+ million.</li>\n <li>Palantir increases guidance again and expects 40% revenue growth YoY at $1.527 billion and $400 million in FCF up from the previous guidance increase of $300 million.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3fd5d395baf412802ef5e554f0efa64b\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Andreas Rentz/Getty Images Entertainment</span></p>\n<p>Some investors love to hate Palantir (PLTR), which was nicknamed a black box company in the past, while others absolutely love it because they believe PLTR's software is the future. In my previous article on PLTR, I stated that based on PLTR's current revenue trend, they were setting up to deliver $399.41 million in revenue for Q3 and $423.22 million of revenue in Q4. The consensus number was $386.56 million of revenue in Q3, and PLTR delivered $392.1 million and forecasted $418 million in Q4 2021. The reaction in premarket as the earnings call was being conducted was nothing but a sea of red as PLTR sharply declined, and each time a gap tried to fill, the next leg on the downward spiral started. The news wasn't even digested, yet people decided to either take profits, exit their position or lost faith in PLTR.</p>\n<p>What wasn't there to like in the earnings release to cause the sell-off that has been hovering in the -9.03% range? PLTR delivered 36% YoY revenue growth, added 34 new customers in Q3, and closed 54 deals worth $1 million or more. PLTR increased their remaining deal value by 50% YoY to $3.6 billion and delivered $101 million in cash from operations (26% margin), and $199 million in free cash flow (30% margin). PLTR also increased guidance for 2021 as they now expect revenue growth of 40% YoY compared to their previous projection of 30% and increased their projection in FCF to $400 million from $300 million. In addition to the numbers, PLTR announced new product platforms and use cases that have tremendous potential to drive revenue and FCF in the future. I believe this sell-off will be short-lived and I am looking at it as a buying opportunity.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8cfe1dd0e9b2c6a24ce3cb94bcfda56c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"341\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p><b>Palantir's revenue continues to expand on both the commercial and government side</b></p>\n<p>Quarter after Quarter since PLTR went public, their commercial business has expanded. After five quarters of going public, PLTR's quarterly commercial revenue has increased by $62 million or 55.36%. In Q3 2021, PLTR delivered $174 million in revenue from its commercial operations, which accounted for 44.38% of its $392.1 million quarterly revenue. Over the previous two years, PLTR's Q3 revenue has increased by 85.11% as it grew by 35.11% in Q3 2020 YoY and by another 37.01% YoY in Q3 of 2021. PLTR's commercial remaining deal value increased by 101% YoY from $1.1 billion in Q3 2020 to $2.2 billion in Q3 2021. Commercial customers are inviting PLTR to present their software solutions, and PLTR is winning their business. In Q3 2021, PLTR added 34 net new customers increasing their commercial customer base by 20% QoQ to 203. Over the past year, PLTR has seen its commercial customer base expand by 46.04% as it has grown by 64 clients from 139 to 203. Anyone who still classifies PLTR as a black box is not being accurate as the commercial market is learning about PLTR's software platforms and implementing their solutions to improve their operations.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa4084630f4e4be30a41c925c5a3fd0a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"374\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>Since Q1 of 2020, PLTR has increased its quarterly revenue by $163.1 million (71.23%) at an average quarterly growth rate of 9.43% QoQ. In Q3 of 2021, this trend stayed intact as revenue increased by $16.1 million QoQ or 4.28%. While the quarterly revenue growth slowed a bit QoQ compared to 10.26% in Q2 2021, PLTR is projecting its Q4 2021 revenue will be $418 million. PLTR is expecting to deliver another company record and generate $25.9 million (6.61%) in QoQ growth to close out the year.</p>\n<p>The same growth story applies to their total revenue in the trailing twelve months (TTM) as well. Over the last six quarters, PLTR's TTM revenue has increased by $620.6 million (76.55%) from $810.6 million to $1.43 billion. On average, PLTR's TTM revenue growth has increased by $103.42 million (9.94%) QoQ. In Q1 2020 - Q3 2020, their average QoQ revenue growth was $94.03 million, and this has increased substantially as the past three quarters have all increased by at least $105 million QoQ. In Q3 2021, PLTR increased its TTM revenue to $1.43 billion as it added $106.8 million (8.06%) in QoQ revenue growth. Just like the quarterly metric, PLTR's TTM is expected to grow QoQ by an additional $95.9 million to $1.527 billion compared to $1.51 billion in the consensus estimate. This would place PLTR's annual revenue growth YoY well ahead of their 30% projection as they would finish 2021 having increased its revenue by $434.30 million (39.75%)</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0ec6211d7ecb04785f406c7661c9124\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>I am shocked PLTR is still in the red. PLTR is a high-growth company that is now FCF positive and expanding its metrics. In the first nine months of 2020, PLTR generated -$285 million in FCF, and at the end of the first nine months of 2021, PLTR has delivered a $605 million swing as it has produced $320 million in FCF YTD. PLTR previously increased their 2021 FCF guidance to $300, and they just increased it again to $400+ million. In the span of three months, PLTR increased its FCF projection by an additional 33.33%. In Q3, PLTR's FCF margin was 30%, and they are projecting $400+ million in FCF for 2021. At the very minimum, this would mean they will tack on an additional $80 million in FCF for 2021. If PLTR delivers $1.527 billion in revenue and $400 million in FCF, its 2021 FCF margin would be 26.2%. PLTR is still projecting 30% annual revenue growth YoY thru 2025, which would place their 2025 revenue at $4.36 billion based on their projection of $1.527 for 2021. At PLTR's current FCF margin, they would generate $1.14 billion in FCF in 2025. Considering PLTR's current trends, if they exceeded their projections and grew at 35% YoY, it would place their 2025 revenue at $5.07 billion. At their current FCF margin, they would then generate $1.33 billion in FCF in 2025.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87cff0d5c5ef70ea6926a1323c77bfe4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"306\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: PLTR)</span></p>\n<p>PLTR is firing on all cylinders. YoY, their Q3 revenue grew by 36%, they raised guidance on their FCF for a 2nd time from $300 million to $400+ million and have increased their annual revenue growth guidance from 30% to roughly 40%. PLTR is still maintaining its future revenue outlook of 30% annually YoY and is creating some impressive margins. PLTR's commercial revenue grew YoY by 37%, and their government revenue grew by 34% YoY in Q3. PLTR closed at least 54 deals worth at least $1 million during Q3, and 33 of those were at least $5 million in revenue, and 18 were at least $10 million in revenue. PLTR's growth metrics are impressive, and I am expecting them to under promise and over deliver going forward.</p>\n<p><b>Palantir is entering two new sectors that are going to be huge, carbon emissions, and crypto</b></p>\n<p>In the past, I have written about future opportunities with the government, Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), and International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM). On today's earnings call, PLTR introduced significant information surrounding two new products they will be offering for carbon emissions and crypto.</p>\n<p>There has been a fundamental shift in the USA over climate, and President Biden rejoined the Paris Agreement to reengage in tackling climate change. Part ofthe planis to reach a net-zero emission economy-wide by 2050. Recently President Biden at the United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, pledged to work with the European Union and dozens of other nations to reduce overall methane emissions worldwide by 30% by 2030. No matter what your stance on climate is, there are many who believe we need to lower emissions, and many nations are working on a goal. To comply, companies such as&nbsp;Exxon Mobil(NYSE:XOM)&nbsp;are conducting longer-term research on several promising innovations with outside organizations, including direct air capture technology to&nbsp;scrub emissions out of the air&nbsp;and carbonate fuel cells&nbsp;to capture industrial emissions&nbsp;from flue gas streams of power plants or manufacturing facilities. Carbon emissions management is already a booming business, and PLTR is creating a module on Foundry to present a single pane to view revenue, margin, production, and all emissions so companies can manage outcomes more efficiently. Personally, I believe this has enormous potential to drive revenue for PLTR in the future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2386d938e7f452a340dbb130de508f6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p>The second huge prospect that PLTR discussed was Foundry for crypto. It looks like PLTR is leveraging their anti-money laundering and know-your-customer expertise. PLTR has worked with several governments over the years to find compliance issues with the world's largest banks and help those banks respond and strengthen their compliance programs. This makes complete sense, and when you go back to the contracts, PLTR has been awarded from the IRS and SEC (discussed in previous articles). In Q3 alone, PLTR inked 6 contracts with the IRS. If I had to guess, PLTR's software would be utilized by the IRS and the SEC on the government side and adopted on the commercial side by banks and crypto exchanges. Currently, in the past 24 hours,Coinbase(NASDAQ:COIN)&nbsp;is showing that Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has incurred a trading volume of $43.8 billion. I think PLTR will end up driving future revenue from both government and commercial contracts from its Foundry for Crypto.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53c762e27799c80dbaa9914bb98a6a10\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"234\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Federal Procurement Database)</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/005d57c6c5c926b35eac100fa35c7415\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Palantir)</span></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>PLTR has become another statistic of the market misunderstanding its earnings and selling the news when the news was great. What more does anyone want PLTR to do? This was an excellent quarter with revenue increasing 36% YoY in Q3, FCF came in at $119 million with a 30% margin, and PLTR closed 54 deals worth more than $1 million each. PLTR beats revenue estimates, increases guidance for its full-year revenue than for the 2nd time, increases its FCF guidance. This was a sell the news on all positive factors, which is creating a buying opportunity. I am staying long on PLTR and plan to add to my position if the sell-off continues.</p>\n<p><b>Seeking Alpha Marketplace</b></p>\n<p>I will be launching a subscription service called Barbell Capital on the Seeking Alpha Marketplace.

In my previous article on PLTR, I stated that based on PLTR's current revenue trend, they were setting up to deliver $399.41 million in revenue for Q3 and $423.22 million of revenue in Q4. The consensus number was $386.56 million of revenue in Q3, and PLTR delivered $392.1 million and forecasted $418 million in Q4 2021. The reaction in premarket as the earnings call was being conducted was nothing but a sea of red as PLTR sharply declined, and each time a gap tried to fill, the next leg on the downward spiral started. The news wasn't even digested, yet people decided to either take profits, exit their position or lost faith in PLTR.\nWhat wasn't there to like in the earnings release to cause the sell-off that has been hovering in the -9.03% range? PLTR delivered 36% YoY revenue growth, added 34 new customers in Q3, and closed 54 deals worth $1 million or more. PLTR increased their remaining deal value by 50% YoY to $3.6 billion and delivered $101 million in cash from operations (26% margin), and $199 million in free cash flow (30% margin). PLTR also increased guidance for 2021 as they now expect revenue growth of 40% YoY compared to their previous projection of 30% and increased their projection in FCF to $400 million from $300 million. In addition to the numbers, PLTR announced new product platforms and use cases that have tremendous potential to drive revenue and FCF in the future. I believe this sell-off will be short-lived and I am looking at it as a buying opportunity.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nPalantir's revenue continues to expand on both the commercial and government side\nQuarter after Quarter since PLTR went public, their commercial business has expanded. After five quarters of going public, PLTR's quarterly commercial revenue has increased by $62 million or 55.36%. In Q3 2021, PLTR delivered $174 million in revenue from its commercial operations, which accounted for 44.38% of its $392.1 million quarterly revenue. Over the previous two years, PLTR's Q3 revenue has increased by 85.11% as it grew by 35.11% in Q3 2020 YoY and by another 37.01% YoY in Q3 of 2021. PLTR's commercial remaining deal value increased by 101% YoY from $1.1 billion in Q3 2020 to $2.2 billion in Q3 2021. Commercial customers are inviting PLTR to present their software solutions, and PLTR is winning their business. In Q3 2021, PLTR added 34 net new customers increasing their commercial customer base by 20% QoQ to 203. Over the past year, PLTR has seen its commercial customer base expand by 46.04% as it has grown by 64 clients from 139 to 203. Anyone who still classifies PLTR as a black box is not being accurate as the commercial market is learning about PLTR's software platforms and implementing their solutions to improve their operations.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)\nSince Q1 of 2020, PLTR has increased its quarterly revenue by $163.1 million (71.23%) at an average quarterly growth rate of 9.43% QoQ. In Q3 of 2021, this trend stayed intact as revenue increased by $16.1 million QoQ or 4.28%. While the quarterly revenue growth slowed a bit QoQ compared to 10.26% in Q2 2021, PLTR is projecting its Q4 2021 revenue will be $418 million. PLTR is expecting to deliver another company record and generate $25.9 million (6.61%) in QoQ growth to close out the year.\nThe same growth story applies to their total revenue in the trailing twelve months (TTM) as well. Over the last six quarters, PLTR's TTM revenue has increased by $620.6 million (76.55%) from $810.6 million to $1.43 billion. On average, PLTR's TTM revenue growth has increased by $103.42 million (9.94%) QoQ. In Q1 2020 - Q3 2020, their average QoQ revenue growth was $94.03 million, and this has increased substantially as the past three quarters have all increased by at least $105 million QoQ. In Q3 2021, PLTR increased its TTM revenue to $1.43 billion as it added $106.8 million (8.06%) in QoQ revenue growth. Just like the quarterly metric, PLTR's TTM is expected to grow QoQ by an additional $95.9 million to $1.527 billion compared to $1.51 billion in the consensus estimate. This would place PLTR's annual revenue growth YoY well ahead of their 30% projection as they would finish 2021 having increased its revenue by $434.30 million (39.75%)\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Palantir)\nI am shocked PLTR is still in the red. PLTR is a high-growth company that is now FCF positive and expanding its metrics. In the first nine months of 2020, PLTR generated -$285 million in FCF, and at the end of the first nine months of 2021, PLTR has delivered a $605 million swing as it has produced $320 million in FCF YTD. PLTR previously increased their 2021 FCF guidance to $300, and they just increased it again to $400+ million. In the span of three months, PLTR increased its FCF projection by an additional 33.33%. In Q3, PLTR's FCF margin was 30%, and they are projecting $400+ million in FCF for 2021. At the very minimum, this would mean they will tack on an additional $80 million in FCF for 2021. If PLTR delivers $1.527 billion in revenue and $400 million in FCF, its 2021 FCF margin would be 26.2%. PLTR is still projecting 30% annual revenue growth YoY thru 2025, which would place their 2025 revenue at $4.36 billion based on their projection of $1.527 for 2021. At PLTR's current FCF margin, they would generate $1.14 billion in FCF in 2025. Considering PLTR's current trends, if they exceeded their projections and grew at 35% YoY, it would place their 2025 revenue at $5.07 billion. At their current FCF margin, they would then generate $1.33 billion in FCF in 2025.\n(Source: PLTR)\nPLTR is firing on all cylinders. YoY, their Q3 revenue grew by 36%, they raised guidance on their FCF for a 2nd time from $300 million to $400+ million and have increased their annual revenue growth guidance from 30% to roughly 40%. PLTR is still maintaining its future revenue outlook of 30% annually YoY and is creating some impressive margins. PLTR's commercial revenue grew YoY by 37%, and their government revenue grew by 34% YoY in Q3. PLTR closed at least 54 deals worth at least $1 million during Q3, and 33 of those were at least $5 million in revenue, and 18 were at least $10 million in revenue. PLTR's growth metrics are impressive, and I am expecting them to under promise and over deliver going forward.\nPalantir is entering two new sectors that are going to be huge, carbon emissions, and crypto\nIn the past, I have written about future opportunities with the government, Amazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), and International Business Machines(NYSE:IBM). On today's earnings call, PLTR introduced significant information surrounding two new products they will be offering for carbon emissions and crypto.\nThere has been a fundamental shift in the USA over climate, and President Biden rejoined the Paris Agreement to reengage in tackling climate change. Part ofthe planis to reach a net-zero emission economy-wide by 2050. Recently President Biden at the United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, pledged to work with the European Union and dozens of other nations to reduce overall methane emissions worldwide by 30% by 2030. No matter what your stance on climate is, there are many who believe we need to lower emissions, and many nations are working on a goal. To comply, companies such as Exxon Mobil(NYSE:XOM) are conducting longer-term research on several promising innovations with outside organizations, including direct air capture technology to scrub emissions out of the air and carbonate fuel cells to capture industrial emissions from flue gas streams of power plants or manufacturing facilities. Carbon emissions management is already a booming business, and PLTR is creating a module on Foundry to present a single pane to view revenue, margin, production, and all emissions so companies can manage outcomes more efficiently. Personally, I believe this has enormous potential to drive revenue for PLTR in the future.\n(Source: Palantir)\nThe second huge prospect that PLTR discussed was Foundry for crypto. It looks like PLTR is leveraging their anti-money laundering and know-your-customer expertise. PLTR has worked with several governments over the years to find compliance issues with the world's largest banks and help those banks respond and strengthen their compliance programs. This makes complete sense, and when you go back to the contracts, PLTR has been awarded from the IRS and SEC (discussed in previous articles). In Q3 alone, PLTR inked 6 contracts with the IRS. If I had to guess, PLTR's software would be utilized by the IRS and the SEC on the government side and adopted on the commercial side by banks and crypto exchanges. Currently, in the past 24 hours,Coinbase(NASDAQ:COIN) is showing that Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has incurred a trading volume of $43.8 billion. I think PLTR will end up driving future revenue from both government and commercial contracts from its Foundry for Crypto.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Federal Procurement Database)\n(Source: Palantir)\nConclusion\nPLTR has become another statistic of the market misunderstanding its earnings and selling the news when the news was great. What more does anyone want PLTR to do? This was an excellent quarter with revenue increasing 36% YoY in Q3, FCF came in at $119 million with a 30% margin, and PLTR closed 54 deals worth more than $1 million each. PLTR beats revenue estimates, increases guidance for its full-year revenue than for the 2nd time, increases its FCF guidance. This was a sell the news on all positive factors, which is creating a buying opportunity. I am staying long on PLTR and plan to add to my position if the sell-off continues.\nSeeking Alpha Marketplace\nI will be launching a subscription service called Barbell Capital on the Seeking Alpha Marketplace.

However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f55c95c8bc74d8fa11a7a39c48feae2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"454\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Roblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n</blockquote>\n<p>The concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB)&nbsp;changed its name to Meta&nbsp;and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.</p>\n<p><b>What is the business model?</b></p>\n<p>Let me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02f69d2443db16542467c22831dfc32c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Investor Day Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Growth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.</p>\n<p>In the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.</p>\n<p>In Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.</p>\n<p>This social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful&nbsp;Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.</p>\n<p><b>The Key Factor</b></p>\n<p>The key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n</blockquote>\n<p>Roblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.</p>\n<p>Roblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a&nbsp;platform outage&nbsp;that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.</p>\n<p><b>What are the growth drivers Moving Forward?</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/282a44eac5fa5aa525e22bb65ba76c05\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"435\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>The four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Extend International reach</li>\n <li>Broaden age demographics</li>\n <li>Expand how people use platform with new use cases</li>\n <li>Grow how engagement is monetized on platform</li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>International Expansion</b></p>\n<p>Of the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.</p>\n<p>Roblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all&nbsp;supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.</p>\n<p><b>Broaden Age Demographics</b></p>\n<p>Up until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Enable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.</li>\n <li>Rapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.</li>\n <li>Create better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Ultimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.</p>\n<p><b>Expanding How People Use the Platform</b></p>\n<p>Expanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.</p>\n<p>Roblox recently held an&nbsp;Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>Roblox is also creating a&nbsp;$10 million fund&nbsp;dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.</p>\n<p>The stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.</p>\n<p><b>Growing The Roblox Economy</b></p>\n<p>Roblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>The basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Removing friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the&nbsp;Roblox premium subscription&nbsp;offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.</li>\n <li>Making the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.</li>\n <li>Testing ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having&nbsp;<i>Avengers: Endgame</i>&nbsp;themed collectibles&nbsp;available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a&nbsp;Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like&nbsp;Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like&nbsp;Ava Max&nbsp;on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds. The first Branded World was launched with DC comics and today it has received millions of visitors. In an announcement made just recently, Nike(NYSE:NKE)teamed up with Roblox on building a&nbsp;'Nikeland' virtual space.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Let's now look at the earnings report that sent Roblox's stock up 42% in one day.</p>\n<p><b>Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Report</b></p>\n<p>Before getting into the revenues, I thought the following graphic from the&nbsp;Q3 2021 Supplemental materials&nbsp;would be very informative in describing how Roblox recognizes GAAP revenues:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba131189d01319851cb518635499c00f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Roblox Q3 2021 bookings grew 28% to $637.8 million compared to $496.5 million last year. For Roblox, booking growth is more important than revenue growth because bookings is actually recorded when people purchase Robux, but revenues are only recognized as users spend the Robux on the platform.</p>\n<p>The company has also estimated October bookings between $177 million and $179 million, up 30% to 34% year-over-year, which is an indication that Q4 could also outperform.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04c23ff22edb1bffd9c81382aa468f4b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Average bookings per daily active user (ABPDAU) was $13.49 in Q3 2021, compared to $13.73 last year.

The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20cec146a312fc52bb7b913c52ab34ef\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>The following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bc7c29257bf140ff5fb9035a7cf9d61\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"148\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/178bc75cc39aabe79f36b10cd48be30f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Revenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020.

Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.</p>\n<p>Roblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations.

The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e21a864bc21a4c71e07dd8e4b52fac31\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p><b>Short Term Risks</b>: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.</p>\n<p>Another risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.</p>\n<p>Also, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.</p>\n<p><b>Long Term Risk</b>: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.</p>\n<p>Roblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA)&nbsp;Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.</p>\n<p>Because of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found&nbsp;ways around restrictions&nbsp;around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.</p>\n<p>Another concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.</p>\n<p>Last but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults. If Roblox fails in expanding its demographics, the stock will likely have far less upside than investors are currently enthusiastically pricing in.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Roblox stock is a buy for very aggressive investors willing to speculate on the upside of the Metaverse. This stock is selling at a high valuation, so less aggressive investors might want to wait for the stock to pull back.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The stock traded as high as $103.87 intraday in early June because of investor excitement over the possibility that Roblox could evolve into one of the first Metaverse companies.\nHowever, on June 15, Roblox released its May 2021 Key Metrics and the stock dropped 8% because of the perception that growth was slowing. The stock essentially stagnated by bouncing around between $70 and $90 until November 9th when the stock shot up 42% after reporting very strong Q3 earnings. Roblox was further propelled upwards by excitement over the company's future initiatives after the Roblox Investor Day on November 16.\n\nAfter such a massive move, that now has the stock back to trading at 40 times sales, investors might be wondering whether or not to chase the stock higher after such a huge move in a short period of time.\nData by YCharts\nReasons Why Roblox is Still a Buy\nRoblox started off simply as a platform where users could play games created by other users and share their own game creations to be played by others. However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nRoblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.\n\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n\n\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n\nThe concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB) changed its name to Meta and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.\nWhat is the business model?\nLet me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.\nSource: Roblox Investor Day Presentation\nGrowth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.\nIn the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.\nIn Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.\nThis social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.\nThe Key Factor\nThe key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.\n\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n\n\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n\nRoblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.\nRoblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a platform outage that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.\nWhat are the growth drivers Moving Forward?\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nThe four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:\n\nExtend International reach\nBroaden age demographics\nExpand how people use platform with new use cases\nGrow how engagement is monetized on platform\n\nInternational Expansion\nOf the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.\nRoblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.\nBroaden Age Demographics\nUp until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:\n\nEnable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.\nRapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.\nCreate better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.\n\nUltimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.\nExpanding How People Use the Platform\nExpanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.\nRoblox recently held an Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.\nRoblox is also creating a $10 million fund dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.\nThe stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.\nGrowing The Roblox Economy\nRoblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.\nThe basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:\n\nRemoving friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the Roblox premium subscription offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.\nMaking the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.\nTesting ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having Avengers: Endgame themed collectibles available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like Ava Max on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds. The first Branded World was launched with DC comics and today it has received millions of visitors. In an announcement made just recently, Nike(NYSE:NKE)teamed up with Roblox on building a 'Nikeland' virtual space.\n\nLet's now look at the earnings report that sent Roblox's stock up 42% in one day.\nRoblox Q3 2021 Earnings Report\nBefore getting into the revenues, I thought the following graphic from the Q3 2021 Supplemental materials would be very informative in describing how Roblox recognizes GAAP revenues:\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox Q3 2021 bookings grew 28% to $637.8 million compared to $496.5 million last year. For Roblox, booking growth is more important than revenue growth because bookings is actually recorded when people purchase Robux, but revenues are only recognized as users spend the Robux on the platform.\nThe company has also estimated October bookings between $177 million and $179 million, up 30% to 34% year-over-year, which is an indication that Q4 could also outperform.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nAverage bookings per daily active user (ABPDAU) was $13.49 in Q3 2021, compared to $13.73 last year. The small decline was due to a shift in the geographic mix of the user base. ABPDAU is defined as bookings in a given period divided by the DAUs for such period. The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nThe following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRevenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020. Cost of revenue totaled $130.0 million, up 98% year over year. Gross Profits were $379 million and Gross Margins were 74.47%.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nData by YCharts\nRoblox has additional Operating Expenses to the normal R&D, S&M, and G&A expenses, which are labelled by the company as Developer Exchange Fees and Infrastructure & Trust and Safety. The Developer Exchange Fee is the payout that developers can elect to receive by converting Robux back into real world cash, which Roblox reports as an expense. Infrastructure and Trust & Safety are the costs associated with running Roblox cloud and the costs of operating the platform with security, safety and trust in mind.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox is still heavily in investment mode, so operating expenses far exceed GAAP Gross Profit, resulting in an operating loss in Q3 2021 of $77.45 million compared to an operating loss of $51.52 million from the prior year.\nNet loss attributable to common stockholders, which includes a portion of the net loss attributable to the Luobu subsidiary, was $74.0 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $48.6 million last year. Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.\nRoblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations. This occurs because deferred revenues are not included on the income statement, since deferred revenues are not considered revenue until they are earned, while, deferred revenues are included in the statement of cash flows.\nRoblox Q3 GAAP EPS of -$0.13 beats estimates by $0.01.\nYoung companies that are scaling often use a metric calledEBITDAbecause the early life stages of a company will often include a lot of financing and capital expenditures, which makes it hard to compare quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year operational profitability and efficiency.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox adjusted EBITDA dropped to $135.7 million from a year-ago $161 million, which is an indication that this company is very much in investment mode to build out the Metaverse, which has been a very hot theme in the market lately.\nBalance Sheet\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nBalance sheet had $1.93 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter. There is no long-term debt on the balance sheet. The company has payables of $178.65 million.\nCash from operations, which is the amount of money a company brings in from its ongoing, regular business activities was $181.2 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox's Free Cash Flow, which is the amount of cash generated that is free and clear of all internal or external obligations, increased 7% over Q3 2020 to $170.6 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox currently has a very solid balance sheet, positive cash flows, and the company has the ability to fund its growth initiatives.\nAnalyst Price Targets\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nThe above is based on 10 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Roblox in the last 3 months. The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.\n\nRisks\nShort Term Risks: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.\nAnother risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.\nAlso, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.\nLong Term Risk: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.\nRoblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA) Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.\nBecause of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found ways around restrictions around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.\nAnother concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.\nLast but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults. If Roblox fails in expanding its demographics, the stock will likely have far less upside than investors are currently enthusiastically pricing in.\nConclusion\nRoblox stock is a buy for very aggressive investors willing to speculate on the upside of the Metaverse. This stock is selling at a high valuation, so less aggressive investors might want to wait for the stock to pull back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":782,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":848820765,"gmtCreate":1635989817984,"gmtModify":1635989818064,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shorting this is like playing with fire.&nbsp;","listText":"Shorting this is like playing with fire.&nbsp;","text":"Shorting this is like playing with fire.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/848820765","repostId":"2180768968","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2180768968","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1635989402,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2180768968?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-04 09:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Up 50% In A Month: Is The Stock Set Up For A Short Trade?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2180768968","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) is now up a whopping 52% in the past month, adding about $400 billion to it","content":"<p><b>Tesla Inc</b> (NASDAQ: TSLA)&nbsp;is now up a whopping 52% in the past month, adding about $400 billion to its market cap.

It will also no doubt highlight a few run-for-hills scenarios like what we saw after a few October big tech earnings releases that fell short of expectations. But let's focus on the positives this month.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> markets should be on the radar of every investor. And the news about innovation, revenue outlooks, and adopting an attitude that the \"future is now\" all offer the potential to produce millionaires out of even the most average investors if they are willing to take a long-term approach.</p>\n<p>With all that in mind, here are three predictions about November markets.</p>\n<h2>1. The market opportunity in EVs and self-driving technology will climb higher</h2>\n<p>It's easy to see the long-term growth potential in the automotive market as it relates to electric vehicles (EVs). Automakers like <b>Tesla</b> are an obvious example. But also <b>Chargepoint Holdings, </b>which is building out the largest EV charging network in the world,&nbsp;and my favorite turnaround play, <b>BlackBerry, </b>with its increasingly popular QNX operating system for EVs. As earnings results come out this month and an initial public offering from electric truck maker Rivian launches next week, the EV hype is likely to heat up further in November.</p>\n<p>Supply chain constraints have raised concerns throughout the automotive market this year because, without the necessary raw materials and parts, particularly semiconductors, unfinished vehicles are left sitting waiting for components. In May it was expected that we would see a shortfall of 3.9 million vehicles produced this year. That number was revised upward in September to 7.7 million, and it's expected to cost automakers an estimated $210 billion this year.</p>\n<p>But delays present opportunities. Eventually, the supply chain will correct itself, though it may take until early 2023. In these uncertain times, companies that best manage costs, optimize the resources available, and stay on the planned path toward growth will reward investors.</p>\n<p>Take <b>Ford</b> (NYSE:F), for example. The company posted third-quarter results on Oct. 27, beating consensus estimates by 9.8% and 89% on quarterly revenue and earnings, respectively. It also raised its full-year revenue guidance by 15%, and topped off its report with news of a reinstated quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share to take effect on Dec. 1.</p>\n<p>During the earnings call, Ford management stated that although supply constraints continue, the third quarter was better than the previous quarter in terms of resource availability. This points toward growth even in the face of supply headwinds, powered by an ongoing revolution in the EV market. Analysts project the EV market to progress at a compound annual growth rate of 24.3% through 2028.</p>\n<h2>2. The metaverse will see big gains virtually and market-wise</h2>\n<p>Running parallel with the growth in the material world of electric and autonomous vehicles is the digital world of virtual and augmented reality known as the metaverse. The companies driving the future of the metaverse can be found in the holdings of the <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF</a></b> (NYSEMKT:META).</p>\n<p>Our kids may be more familiar with the metaverse than we are. It's evidenced in numerous video console games such as <i>Fortnite</i>, <i>Minecraft</i>, and <i>Flight Sim</i>, where players create virtual worlds, interacting with each other in these metaverse creations.</p>\n<p><b>Microsoft</b> announced earlier this week that it intends to expand on its Microsoft Teams package by developing metaverse technology for collaboration using 3D avatars that represent meeting attendees who are present but would rather not be on camera. Eventually this will either coincide or compete with developments by <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></b> (formerly known as Facebook) as it rebrands and expands its offerings along the same lines.</p>\n<p>For long-term investors, these trends create an almost no-lose scenario. As advancements in technology take us into the future, demand will swell and revenue will be generated. And it will most likely be multiple companies reaping the benefits.</p>\n<p>Investors looking to benefit from it all may be well served by the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF. It was launched on June 30, and it is quickly gaining trading volume. As of August, the ETF had $50 million in assets under management (AUM). By September, AUM doubled to $100 million. Today, the number sits at $176 million, while trading volume in the ETF has also risen. The average daily volume is at 300,000, while more recently it has seen daily volume exceeding 1 million shares on select days.</p>\n<p>Its top 10 holdings are an impressive list: <b>Nvidia</b>, Microsoft, <b>Roblox</b>, Meta Platforms, <b>Unity Software</b>, <b>Immersion Corp.</b>, <b>Autodesk</b>, <b>Sea Limited</b>, <b>Amazon</b>, and <b>Tencent Holdings</b>.</p>\n<p>I wouldn't be surprised to see the average 20-day daily volume double by the end of this month, combined with a 10% gain in the ETF share price for November.</p>\n<h2>3. Apple is still fresh and its stock will top 52-week highs</h2>\n<p>The intelligent EV market and the metaverse intersect in what has become a staple company and foundational portfolio stock: <b>Apple&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL). According to multiple sources, Apple is developing eyeglasses for the metaverse, while also working on self-driving technology and electric mobility to serve the vehicular market while potentially developing a self-driving car of its own.</p>\n<p>The future of our technology world is upon us, and November could be a pivotal entry point for investors into many of these stocks that will provide big gains for years to come.</p>\n<p>When Apple came out with a miss on quarterly revenue at the end of October, management noted that supply constraints impacted the company at a cost of $6 billion. But <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> thing that seems to keep getting overlooked during these earnings conference calls is that Apple's revenue continues to climb year over year regardless of whether the consensus estimates are accurate or overblown.</p>\n<p>The company continues to benefit greatly from iPhone sales, but unit sales no longer make up even half of its total revenue. Per Statista, from 2012 to now, Apple has seen iPhone sales decline from 51% of total revenue to 49%. Meanwhile, services revenue has grown from 6.5% to 21%. The gross margin on services is now 60%, whereas iPhone profit margin is closer to 35%. So as the company generates more services offerings, and innovative technology progresses, the dust will settle from concerns over supply constraints and a revenue miss, and a clearer picture will emerge.</p>\n<p>My November prediction is that Apple stock will top its 52-week high of $157.26 a share.</p>\n<h2>Seeing the forest through the trees</h2>\n<p>October was a month of volatility and concern over supply constraints and earnings warnings.

It will also no doubt highlight a few run-for-hills scenarios like what we saw after a few October big tech earnings releases that fell short of expectations. But let's focus on the positives this month.\nTwo markets should be on the radar of every investor. And the news about innovation, revenue outlooks, and adopting an attitude that the \"future is now\" all offer the potential to produce millionaires out of even the most average investors if they are willing to take a long-term approach.\nWith all that in mind, here are three predictions about November markets.\n1. The market opportunity in EVs and self-driving technology will climb higher\nIt's easy to see the long-term growth potential in the automotive market as it relates to electric vehicles (EVs). Automakers like Tesla are an obvious example. But also Chargepoint Holdings, which is building out the largest EV charging network in the world, and my favorite turnaround play, BlackBerry, with its increasingly popular QNX operating system for EVs. As earnings results come out this month and an initial public offering from electric truck maker Rivian launches next week, the EV hype is likely to heat up further in November.\nSupply chain constraints have raised concerns throughout the automotive market this year because, without the necessary raw materials and parts, particularly semiconductors, unfinished vehicles are left sitting waiting for components. In May it was expected that we would see a shortfall of 3.9 million vehicles produced this year. That number was revised upward in September to 7.7 million, and it's expected to cost automakers an estimated $210 billion this year.\nBut delays present opportunities. Eventually, the supply chain will correct itself, though it may take until early 2023. In these uncertain times, companies that best manage costs, optimize the resources available, and stay on the planned path toward growth will reward investors.\nTake Ford (NYSE:F), for example. The company posted third-quarter results on Oct. 27, beating consensus estimates by 9.8% and 89% on quarterly revenue and earnings, respectively. It also raised its full-year revenue guidance by 15%, and topped off its report with news of a reinstated quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share to take effect on Dec. 1.\nDuring the earnings call, Ford management stated that although supply constraints continue, the third quarter was better than the previous quarter in terms of resource availability. This points toward growth even in the face of supply headwinds, powered by an ongoing revolution in the EV market. Analysts project the EV market to progress at a compound annual growth rate of 24.3% through 2028.\n2. The metaverse will see big gains virtually and market-wise\nRunning parallel with the growth in the material world of electric and autonomous vehicles is the digital world of virtual and augmented reality known as the metaverse. The companies driving the future of the metaverse can be found in the holdings of the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF (NYSEMKT:META).\nOur kids may be more familiar with the metaverse than we are. It's evidenced in numerous video console games such as Fortnite, Minecraft, and Flight Sim, where players create virtual worlds, interacting with each other in these metaverse creations.\nMicrosoft announced earlier this week that it intends to expand on its Microsoft Teams package by developing metaverse technology for collaboration using 3D avatars that represent meeting attendees who are present but would rather not be on camera. Eventually this will either coincide or compete with developments by Meta Platforms (formerly known as Facebook) as it rebrands and expands its offerings along the same lines.\nFor long-term investors, these trends create an almost no-lose scenario. As advancements in technology take us into the future, demand will swell and revenue will be generated. And it will most likely be multiple companies reaping the benefits.\nInvestors looking to benefit from it all may be well served by the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF. It was launched on June 30, and it is quickly gaining trading volume. As of August, the ETF had $50 million in assets under management (AUM). By September, AUM doubled to $100 million. Today, the number sits at $176 million, while trading volume in the ETF has also risen. The average daily volume is at 300,000, while more recently it has seen daily volume exceeding 1 million shares on select days.\nIts top 10 holdings are an impressive list: Nvidia, Microsoft, Roblox, Meta Platforms, Unity Software, Immersion Corp., Autodesk, Sea Limited, Amazon, and Tencent Holdings.\nI wouldn't be surprised to see the average 20-day daily volume double by the end of this month, combined with a 10% gain in the ETF share price for November.\n3. Apple is still fresh and its stock will top 52-week highs\nThe intelligent EV market and the metaverse intersect in what has become a staple company and foundational portfolio stock: Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). According to multiple sources, Apple is developing eyeglasses for the metaverse, while also working on self-driving technology and electric mobility to serve the vehicular market while potentially developing a self-driving car of its own.\nThe future of our technology world is upon us, and November could be a pivotal entry point for investors into many of these stocks that will provide big gains for years to come.\nWhen Apple came out with a miss on quarterly revenue at the end of October, management noted that supply constraints impacted the company at a cost of $6 billion. But one thing that seems to keep getting overlooked during these earnings conference calls is that Apple's revenue continues to climb year over year regardless of whether the consensus estimates are accurate or overblown.\nThe company continues to benefit greatly from iPhone sales, but unit sales no longer make up even half of its total revenue. Per Statista, from 2012 to now, Apple has seen iPhone sales decline from 51% of total revenue to 49%. Meanwhile, services revenue has grown from 6.5% to 21%. The gross margin on services is now 60%, whereas iPhone profit margin is closer to 35%. So as the company generates more services offerings, and innovative technology progresses, the dust will settle from concerns over supply constraints and a revenue miss, and a clearer picture will emerge.\nMy November prediction is that Apple stock will top its 52-week high of $157.26 a share.\nSeeing the forest through the trees\nOctober was a month of volatility and concern over supply constraints and earnings warnings. But when those warnings lead to nervous selling based on short-term what-ifs and fear of the unknown, the long-term investor is provided with an opportunity. And if history repeats itself, this November will provide the springboard to that opportunity. The S&P 500 average return is 1.57% in the month of November, with 29 of the past 40 Novembers being in positive territory, led by 2020 at 11.8% -- the best November in history.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":326,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":846255784,"gmtCreate":1636089231105,"gmtModify":1636089283501,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","listText":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","text":"Waiting to see when the meme ape's gold runs out.. then BOOM it goes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/846255784","repostId":"1105927429","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105927429","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1636084040,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1105927429?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-05 11:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Meme stocks are moving on real news, both good and very, very bad","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105927429","media":"Marketwatch","summary":"Meme stocks don’t always respond to actual news items like other stocks do [see GameStop  on Monday]","content":"<p>Meme stocks don’t always respond to actual news items like other stocks do [see GameStop&nbsp; on Monday] but when they do, we get days like Thursday, where a swirling news cycle hits a frothy market move and magic happens.</p>\n<p>It meant great news for chip maker Nvidia Corp.&nbsp;and very bad news for Penn National Gaming.</p>\n<p>Nvidia got a major boost from growing speculation that the company is likely to announce the general availability of its Omniverse Enterprise during its GTC Conference on Nov. 8, providing it with a chance to capitalize on the company formerly known as Facebook’s&nbsp;new “metaverse” technology.</p>\n<p>That news sent Nvidia stock as high as 17% before shares closed up 12%.

As of 2020, he even teaches in it (more on that in a moment).</p>\n<p>For all of the chatter from Facebook/Meta, Nvidia, and other companies about building the metaverse, though, he thinks the metaverse will be mostly empty. That is to say, there won’t necessarily be a lot of things to do in this immersive version of the internet.</p>\n<p>While social experiences and games could come to define the space, Bailenson, who founded Stanford University’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab, is betting that education and work will remain the “killer apps” of virtual reality (VR) in the years to come. Fittingly, the VR sports training company he co-founded, Strivr, has since shifted its focus to business training broadly.</p>\n<p>Bailenson recently spoke with Quartz about what the metaverse is, the state of metaverse technology, and why the developers of the metaverse can be conscientious about their carbon footprint. The interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.</p>\n<h2>Quartz: What is the metaverse, exactly?</h2>\n<p><b>Bailenson:</b> The term “metaverse” comes from Neal Stephenson’s 1996 book <i>Snow Crash.</i> Stephenson defines the metaverse as basically the internet, but immersive. Imagine the internet skipped the 2D version and went right into VR. That’s the notion of the metaverse.</p>\n<h2>Is VR technology ready for this?</h2>\n<p>In March 2020, when covid-19 hit, Stanford asked professors to volunteer to move their normal teaching load to summer 2021. I volunteered because I’ve been teaching a class since 2003 called Virtual People and I wanted to, given that we were remote anyway, try to do it in immersive VR in the metaverse. So in June 2021, 101 Stanford students all had their own headsets at home and we networked via avatars in the metaverse using a platform called Engage.</p>\n<p>We talked and we learned and we experimented and we traveled. We spent about 60,000 shared minutes inside virtual reality and did all the things that Stephenson wrote about way back then. This fall, I’ve got 178 Stanford students and we are doing incredible things. We’re building things in the metaverse. We are having small group discussions. We’re doing travel and meditation and medical classes. I don’t think the hardware was ready nine or ten months ago. In the last six or seven months, the hardware has gotten good enough where I can do the class I’ve always dreamed of since the late ’90s.</p>\n<h2>How does the metaverse change what’s possible for teaching?</h2>\n<p>We’re learning a ton about how to teach and learn in VR. Our class was a magnitude of order larger than anything anyone has ever tried. When you combine the two classes, you’ve got 250 students-plus in VR with a group for 10 weeks in a row. The lessons that we’ve learned ranged from what size group is the best for small-group discussion to how many avatars can you render in the same scene before the whole system crashes.</p>\n<p>More importantly, we’ve been developing a curriculum that leverages what the metaverse is [and isn’t] good for. Once a week, we do kind of a lecture where we talk about readings and we have guest lecturers come in and we do that over <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a>. If you’re looking at someone talking, you don’t need to be in VR, right? One reason why I want my smaller discussions to be in VR is that it preserves the spatial coherence of the conversation. And I’m very strict—I don’t want to get anyone dizzy ever. We have short bursts with 30- to 40-minute experiences.</p>\n<h2>You think work and enterprise are going to be huge parts of the metaverse. Why are they the main use cases?</h2>\n<p>When you go through the history of VR, it’s all about training, starting with the Flight Simulator in 1929. It has been a killer app of VR since there’s been VR and that remains the case today. Video games are doing okay. And you’re getting thousands of people per day going to places like AltspaceVR or VRChat, but not hundreds of thousands.</p>\n<p>Ultimately, what’s going to drive VR is that it’s really good for training. What Strivr does is we put you in this incredibly immersive scene. We began as a football training, training quarterbacks and other players, and then we went to other sports—US Olympic skiing, NBA free-throw shooting. In 2016, we pivoted to enterprise, and so the largest client remains Walmart. Currently, we do lots of things where there are other people around, but those people are either controlled by A.I. or they’re recorded people that we’re beaming in via video capture. What the metaverse is going to do is that, with all the Strivr training scenarios, we’re now going to be able to do it in teams.</p>\n<p>One of the most successful trainings for Strivr is active shooter training. The CEO of Walmart has publicly discussed this. [In 2019, a gunman shot and killed 22 people and wounded 23 others at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.] Many of the employees were working that had already trained with Strivr’s active shooter preparation tool. And so they were prepared in a way that they wouldn’t have been had they not done that training. It’s one of the most incredible success stories of VR, as horrible as that day was. The CEO says that lives are saved because decisions are made faster because of the practice from employees who use VR.</p>\n<h2>Google Glass went from a failed consumer product to more of a workplace apparatus. Is that what we could see with the metaverse? And does that point to bigger consumer reluctance to use VR and AR?</h2>\n<p>I’ve dedicated my career to VR—I’ve done nothing but think about it during my work life since the late ’90s. That being said, I don’t use VR recreationally. It’s not something that you do for fun yet. VR has always been about solving hard problems. You’re putting something on your head. You can’t see the real world. You can only do it for a certain amount of time because it is different, perceptually, than the real world.</p>\n<p>What Google Glass and others learned the hard way is that if you’re not solving a problem, people don’t really want to be having these wearables on their faces. The problem with Google Glass is that there wasn’t really much to do there. It was a small visual field. There was no way to track your input properly and it just didn’t actually do that much. VR eventually is going to be super fun for the consumer, but until we get there, it’s going to continue to do what it’s always done, which is solve really hard problems.</p>\n<h2>Do you think that the pandemic has sped up our path to the metaverse while breaking down important barriers around remote work?</h2>\n<p>I certainly think it’s broken down barriers to a ton of areas of remote work and about, you know, the need to have a physical handshake in order to seal the deal. On the other hand, the pandemic caused delays in production channels that led to made it harder to get hardware. And the pandemic caused the economy to struggle, so a lot of startups didn’t make it through.</p>\n<p>Also, VR is still fairly new—the way that a lot of people get exposed to it is that they go to someone’s place of work or their lab or their house, and they try on VR and say, “Oh, this is awesome.” It kind of spreads that way. And that was lost during the pandemic. So I say there are two sides of the coin, but I agree with you that the loss of the stigma of remote work is a huge one.</p>\n<h2>What do you think about social media companies like Facebook becoming interested in building the metaverse?</h2>\n<p>What you’re going to see in VR is no different than what you’re seeing on different social media. There are dozens and dozens of platforms. Some of them are designed for small-group interactions. Some are good for large-group interaction. Some of them are designed to be places where you’re respectful to one another and a place for work. Some of them are designed specifically to be the Wild Wild West where anything goes.</p>\n<p>Every company wants to be a platform. And they want to be <i>the</i> platform.</p>\n<p>A lot of us in the field of VR are very surprised that of the top 10 head-mounted displays that exist, two of the more portable ones, the Oculus Quest 2 and the Pico Neo 2, both have been bought by social media companies—Oculus by Facebook and now TikTok buying Pico. It’s very strange for veterans and pioneers in the field to think about why is a piece of hardware tied to an account. It was never that way before. VR was always hardware. It wasn’t part of a personal account.</p>\n<p>I work with a lot of different tech companies in this area. And one of my jobs in working with them is to jump up and down all the time about policy issues and things like privacy. So we’ve got a lot of work to do on that front. But that’s just where we are.</p>\n<h2>The tension is about when users should be anonymous and when they should be identified, right?</h2>\n<p>There are about a dozen prominent VR social platforms. The ones we’re using from my class mostly are Engage, which is a small company out of Ireland, and AltspaceVR, which is a startup that I worked with early on, and then Microsoft bought them. Neither of them requires you to have a social media account, but you do have to make an Engage account and an Altspace account. So I don’t think any of them are going to let you just go in there without having a username and password. That certainly hasn’t been the case yet.</p>\n<p>Now there is a growing movement around WebVR, which is a more flexible way of entering VR. In the VR scene, there are those that want pure bottom-up stuff that’s not top-down from the big companies and you’re seeing some energy there.</p>\n<h2>Is there an environmentally responsible way to build the metaverse?</h2>\n<p>I love that question. I’ve got two answers for you in terms of how to design it. Well, one’s going to be obvious, which is that we should use servers that are green in order to power the metaverse.</p>\n<p>Here’s one that’s not too obvious: In the early days of <i>Second Life</i>, if you had some kind of interactive algorithm such that a sun was going around a scene and casting a shadow, it didn’t matter if there were 200 avatars visiting or if no one had visited it for four months—the processing in order to make a sun go around was happening. In other words, the tree in the woods was constantly falling, even if nobody was there.</p>\n<p>That sounds like a simple thing [to stop doing], but if you’re going to have a persistent world that’s the same for everyone, it’s actually hard to solve that. The metaverse needs to be the same anytime anyone comes in. And one of the design principles to be green is that we need to make sure that there aren’t things happening when nobody’s there. You don’t need the tree falling if nobody is there.</p>\n<p>Sign up for the Quartz Daily Brief, our free daily newsletter with the world’s most important and interesting news.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The metaverse will mostly be for work</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe metaverse will mostly be for work\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-04 08:49 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/metaverse-mostly-110122020.html><strong>Quartz</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Stanford professor Jeremy Bailenson has been thinking about virtual reality and the metaverse for decades.

As of 2020, he even teaches in it (more on that in a moment).\nFor all of the chatter from Facebook/Meta, Nvidia, and other companies about building the metaverse, though, he thinks the metaverse will be mostly empty. That is to say, there won’t necessarily be a lot of things to do in this immersive version of the internet.\nWhile social experiences and games could come to define the space, Bailenson, who founded Stanford University’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab, is betting that education and work will remain the “killer apps” of virtual reality (VR) in the years to come. Fittingly, the VR sports training company he co-founded, Strivr, has since shifted its focus to business training broadly.\nBailenson recently spoke with Quartz about what the metaverse is, the state of metaverse technology, and why the developers of the metaverse can be conscientious about their carbon footprint. The interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.\nQuartz: What is the metaverse, exactly?\nBailenson: The term “metaverse” comes from Neal Stephenson’s 1996 book Snow Crash. Stephenson defines the metaverse as basically the internet, but immersive. Imagine the internet skipped the 2D version and went right into VR. That’s the notion of the metaverse.\nIs VR technology ready for this?\nIn March 2020, when covid-19 hit, Stanford asked professors to volunteer to move their normal teaching load to summer 2021. I volunteered because I’ve been teaching a class since 2003 called Virtual People and I wanted to, given that we were remote anyway, try to do it in immersive VR in the metaverse. So in June 2021, 101 Stanford students all had their own headsets at home and we networked via avatars in the metaverse using a platform called Engage.\nWe talked and we learned and we experimented and we traveled. We spent about 60,000 shared minutes inside virtual reality and did all the things that Stephenson wrote about way back then. This fall, I’ve got 178 Stanford students and we are doing incredible things. We’re building things in the metaverse. We are having small group discussions. We’re doing travel and meditation and medical classes. I don’t think the hardware was ready nine or ten months ago. In the last six or seven months, the hardware has gotten good enough where I can do the class I’ve always dreamed of since the late ’90s.\nHow does the metaverse change what’s possible for teaching?\nWe’re learning a ton about how to teach and learn in VR. Our class was a magnitude of order larger than anything anyone has ever tried. When you combine the two classes, you’ve got 250 students-plus in VR with a group for 10 weeks in a row. The lessons that we’ve learned ranged from what size group is the best for small-group discussion to how many avatars can you render in the same scene before the whole system crashes.\nMore importantly, we’ve been developing a curriculum that leverages what the metaverse is [and isn’t] good for. Once a week, we do kind of a lecture where we talk about readings and we have guest lecturers come in and we do that over Zoom. If you’re looking at someone talking, you don’t need to be in VR, right? One reason why I want my smaller discussions to be in VR is that it preserves the spatial coherence of the conversation.

Declines in shares of banks JPMorgan Chase & Co and Goldman Sachs Group weighed on the blue-chip index.\nFinancials dropped 1.3%, most among S&P 500 sectors, as U.S. Treasury yields fell, with the market unwinding expectations of quicker Fed rate hikes a day after the central bank signaled it was in no hurry to do so.\n“The growth side of the market is seeing more positive results today as they are benefiting from the falling yields that are developing,” said Matthew Miskin, co-chief investment strategist at John Hancock Investment Management.\n“The market had been positioning for higher yields in general given the Fed announcement of tapering. As we walked in today, there has been a reversal in that.”\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 33.35 points, or 0.09%, to 36,124.23, the S&P 500 gained 19.49 points, or 0.42%, to 4,680.06 and the Nasdaq Composite added 128.72 points, or 0.81%, to 15,940.31.\nThe S&P 500 growth index rose 1.2% while the S&P 500 value index fell 0.5%.\nAmong S&P 500 sectors, tech and consumer discretionary led the way, both rising about 1.5%.\nQualcomm shares jumped 12.7% as the company forecast better-than-expected profits and revenue for its current quarter on soaring demand for chips used in phones, cars and other internet-connected devices.\nThe Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index climbed 3.5%, with Nvidia soaring 12%.\nBetter-than-expected third-quarter earnings have helped lift sentiment for equities. With about 420 companies having reported, S&P 500 earnings are expected to have climbed 41.2% in the third quarter from a year earlier, according to Refinitiv IBES.\n“The corporate earnings story remains quite bright,” said Craig Fehr, investment strategist at Edward Jones.\n“The market is rewarding companies that are beating and upping their outlook, and the market is punishing companies that are missing their estimates in the quarter and more importantly, perhaps, signaling a more sour outlook.”\nModerna shares tumbled about 18% as the company slashed the 2021 sales forecast for its COVID-19 vaccine by as much as $5 billion, grappling to fill vials and distribute them to meet unprecedented world demand. Moderna shares weighed on the S&P 500 healthcare sector, which fell 0.8%.\nData showed the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits fell to the lowest level in nearly 20 months last week, suggesting the economy was regaining momentum. Investors will get a critical view of the economy with the monthly jobs report on Friday.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.12-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.24-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted 75 new 52-week highs and five new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 224 new highs and 38 new lows.\nAbout 11.3 billion shares changed hands in U.S. exchanges, above the 10.4 billion daily average over the last 20 sessions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":664,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":840271914,"gmtCreate":1635653897181,"gmtModify":1635653897181,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good stuff","listText":"Good stuff","text":"Good stuff","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/840271914","repostId":"2179212858","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2179212858","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1635573332,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2179212858?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-10-30 13:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Under-the-Radar Cryptocurrencies With Far More Potential Than Shiba Inu","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2179212858","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These lesser-known cryptocurrencies have real-world applications.","content":"<p>Historically, the stock market is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the greatest wealth creators on the planet.

As of Oct. 28, Stellar was the 25th-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $7.9 billion.</p>\n<p>What I'm looking for in financially focused blockchain projects are efficiencies that stand out. Using existing banking infrastructure, cross-border payments can take up to one week to validate and settle, which isn't very efficient. With Stellar's blockchain, more than 180 fiat currencies can be converted to Lumen coins (XLM, the protocol token on Stellar's network), transferred across borders, and converted back into a preferred fiat currency. The time to completely validate and settle said cross-border transaction? A couple of seconds.</p>\n<p>But speed isn't the only advantage for Stellar's blockchain. The average transaction costs 0.00001 XLM, which equates to $0.00000334 per transaction. To put this figure into an easier-to-understand number, it would take approximately 300,000 transactions on Stellar's blockchain before a party would rack up the equivalent of $1 in fees.</p>\n<p>And that's still not all. Stellar's development team claims the network can handle up to 3,000 transactions per second. Though this is far cry from the 24,000 transactions per second payment-processing giant <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b> (NYSE:V) can handle, 3,000 transactions per second is an exceptionally high number for a digital currency-tethered blockchain.</p>\n<p>Stellar has tangible partnerships, too. Back in 2017, it partnered with <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a></b>&nbsp;to help facilitate blockchain-based cross-border payments for a dozen banks in the South Pacific region. More recently, in May, the Stellar Development Foundation announced it would be part of a collaboration by Visa and Tala to bring financially focused blockchain solutions to underbanked emerging markets.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cfc55043e9f8b2e8a61eefccb0e4f64d\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"459\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h2>Nano</h2>\n<p>Another under-the-radar cryptocurrency that looks to have far more long-term potential than Shiba Inu is <b>Nano</b> (CRYPTO:NANO). According to data from CoinMarketCap.com, Nano is the 119th-largest cryptocurrency ($669 million market cap).</p>\n<p>Nano aims to revolutionize digital payments, and there are three things about this cryptocurrency project that really stand out. To begin with, Nano's developers shunned an open-source network with a central blockchain. Instead, the network utilizes a block-lattice blockchain. With the block-lattice, every user has their own blockchain that they can add to. This means no competing with other users to add blocks and no hassle in gaining consensus. Since only the sender and receiver of a payment are needed for consensus, verification is quick. In theory, the block-lattice should also allow Nano to scale rapidly without the networks' performance being adversely effected.</p>\n<p>Secondly, Nano's network is lightning-fast, with transactions processing (this means validation and settlement) in under a second.&nbsp; Assuming the network can be effectively scaled to increase transactions per second well into the four digits, like Stellar, Nano could become a popular digital payment option.</p>\n<p>The third and most intriguing aspect of Nano is that its transactions are free. As noted by Nano:</p>\n<blockquote>\n The consensus mechanism, called Open Representative Voting (ORV), also provides useful differentiation from other networks. Consensus is reached through representatives voting on the validity of individual blocks shared on the network. The voting weight for each representative is assigned to them by the account owners and is in proportion to the Nano in those accounts.\n</blockquote>\n<p>In short, ORV helps keep Nano free from a transaction standpoint, which could give it real long-term appeal.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F648896%2Fblockchain-iot-security-identity-decentralized-wireless-crypto-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h2>Qtum</h2>\n<p>A third and final cryptocurrency with significantly more real-world potential than Shiba Inu is <b>Qtum</b> (CRYPTO:QTUM), which is pronounced \"quantum.\" According to CoinMarketCap, Qtum is the 88th-largest cryptocurrency, with a market value of $1.2 billion.</p>\n<p>Although Qtum has financial applications, it's really designed to be a quick and secure blockchain solution for businesses.</p>\n<p>The standout aspect of Qtum's blockchain is the combination of <b>Bitcoin</b>'s (CRYPTO:BTC) UTXO security protocols with <b>Ethereum</b>'s (CRYPTO:ETH) Virtual Machine. Qtum's developers have taken the best aspects from the top two digital currencies by market cap and created a network that incorporates smart contracts. Smart contracts are protocols that facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation of a contract between two parties. Since smart contracts are transparent on blockchain and legally binding, they're the perfect tool to attract businesses.</p>\n<p>To build on this point, Qtum further separates itself from other blockchain projects with its Account Abstraction Layer (AAL). The AAL is what allows applications to be decoupled from the underlying protocol in order to add new smart contract capabilities down the road. It also allows Qtum's blockchain to remain backward compatible with Bitcoin's secure UTXO model, no matter how many updates Qtum's developers put out.</p>\n<p>To add, Qtum has had little issue attracting enterprise partnerships. In mid-March, prediction markets platform and exchange Value Network announced it would be migrating away from Ethereum to Qtum's smart contract and decentralized applications platform. Just a couple of weeks later, Qtum founder Patrick Dai noted that developers were working with <b>Filecoin</b>&nbsp;to enable smart contacts through the Qtum network.</p>\n<p>The point being that, unlike Shiba Inu, Qtum has demonstrated real-world potential.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Under-the-Radar Cryptocurrencies With Far More Potential Than Shiba Inu</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Under-the-Radar Cryptocurrencies With Far More Potential Than Shiba Inu\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-30 13:55 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/29/3-cryptocurrencies-more-potential-than-shiba-inu/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Historically, the stock market is one of the greatest wealth creators on the planet.

As of Oct. 28, Stellar was the 25th-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $7.9 billion.\nWhat I'm looking for in financially focused blockchain projects are efficiencies that stand out. Using existing banking infrastructure, cross-border payments can take up to one week to validate and settle, which isn't very efficient. With Stellar's blockchain, more than 180 fiat currencies can be converted to Lumen coins (XLM, the protocol token on Stellar's network), transferred across borders, and converted back into a preferred fiat currency. The time to completely validate and settle said cross-border transaction? A couple of seconds.\nBut speed isn't the only advantage for Stellar's blockchain. The average transaction costs 0.00001 XLM, which equates to $0.00000334 per transaction. To put this figure into an easier-to-understand number, it would take approximately 300,000 transactions on Stellar's blockchain before a party would rack up the equivalent of $1 in fees.\nAnd that's still not all. Stellar's development team claims the network can handle up to 3,000 transactions per second. Though this is far cry from the 24,000 transactions per second payment-processing giant Visa (NYSE:V) can handle, 3,000 transactions per second is an exceptionally high number for a digital currency-tethered blockchain.\nStellar has tangible partnerships, too. Back in 2017, it partnered with IBM to help facilitate blockchain-based cross-border payments for a dozen banks in the South Pacific region. More recently, in May, the Stellar Development Foundation announced it would be part of a collaboration by Visa and Tala to bring financially focused blockchain solutions to underbanked emerging markets.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNano\nAnother under-the-radar cryptocurrency that looks to have far more long-term potential than Shiba Inu is Nano (CRYPTO:NANO). According to data from CoinMarketCap.com, Nano is the 119th-largest cryptocurrency ($669 million market cap).\nNano aims to revolutionize digital payments, and there are three things about this cryptocurrency project that really stand out. To begin with, Nano's developers shunned an open-source network with a central blockchain. Instead, the network utilizes a block-lattice blockchain. With the block-lattice, every user has their own blockchain that they can add to. This means no competing with other users to add blocks and no hassle in gaining consensus. Since only the sender and receiver of a payment are needed for consensus, verification is quick. In theory, the block-lattice should also allow Nano to scale rapidly without the networks' performance being adversely effected.\nSecondly, Nano's network is lightning-fast, with transactions processing (this means validation and settlement) in under a second.  Assuming the network can be effectively scaled to increase transactions per second well into the four digits, like Stellar, Nano could become a popular digital payment option.\nThe third and most intriguing aspect of Nano is that its transactions are free. As noted by Nano:\n\n The consensus mechanism, called Open Representative Voting (ORV), also provides useful differentiation from other networks. Consensus is reached through representatives voting on the validity of individual blocks shared on the network. The voting weight for each representative is assigned to them by the account owners and is in proportion to the Nano in those accounts.\n\nIn short, ORV helps keep Nano free from a transaction standpoint, which could give it real long-term appeal.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nQtum\nA third and final cryptocurrency with significantly more real-world potential than Shiba Inu is Qtum (CRYPTO:QTUM), which is pronounced \"quantum.\" According to CoinMarketCap, Qtum is the 88th-largest cryptocurrency, with a market value of $1.2 billion.\nAlthough Qtum has financial applications, it's really designed to be a quick and secure blockchain solution for businesses.\nThe standout aspect of Qtum's blockchain is the combination of Bitcoin's (CRYPTO:BTC) UTXO security protocols with Ethereum's (CRYPTO:ETH) Virtual Machine. Qtum's developers have taken the best aspects from the top two digital currencies by market cap and created a network that incorporates smart contracts. Smart contracts are protocols that facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation of a contract between two parties. Since smart contracts are transparent on blockchain and legally binding, they're the perfect tool to attract businesses.\nTo build on this point, Qtum further separates itself from other blockchain projects with its Account Abstraction Layer (AAL). The AAL is what allows applications to be decoupled from the underlying protocol in order to add new smart contract capabilities down the road. It also allows Qtum's blockchain to remain backward compatible with Bitcoin's secure UTXO model, no matter how many updates Qtum's developers put out.\nTo add, Qtum has had little issue attracting enterprise partnerships. In mid-March, prediction markets platform and exchange Value Network announced it would be migrating away from Ethereum to Qtum's smart contract and decentralized applications platform. Just a couple of weeks later, Qtum founder Patrick Dai noted that developers were working with Filecoin to enable smart contacts through the Qtum network.\nThe point being that, unlike Shiba Inu, Qtum has demonstrated real-world potential.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":40,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":840245688,"gmtCreate":1635653444876,"gmtModify":1635653444876,"author":{"id":"4098498544462920","authorId":"4098498544462920","name":"Bobster","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afe602d51a0833dfac995196382a7e18","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4098498544462920","authorIdStr":"4098498544462920"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Don't

Billionaire hedge-fund manager Bill Ackman on Friday joined a growing chorus of market heavyweights urging the Fed to stand down.\nIt's now been 19 months of Fed bond-buying, and its balance sheet roughly has doubled to a record $8.6 trillion.
