From 2010 to 2019, the median estimate of where operating margins would be 12 months into the future for S&amp;P 500 members were negatively correlated to changes in PPI.

Given these estimates are a strong strong leading indicator of stock-price direction, margin trends may be a critical risk to the equity market in the months ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":642,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":804351698,"gmtCreate":1627937412714,"gmtModify":1631891102255,"author":{"id":"3581579564610737","authorId":"3581579564610737","name":"psn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02ceceb6818a838774f95ad5aad8d49c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581579564610737","authorIdStr":"3581579564610737"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/804351698","repostId":"1172320411","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":183,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805584469,"gmtCreate":1627892135551,"gmtModify":1631891102269,"author":{"id":"3581579564610737","authorId":"3581579564610737","name":"psn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02ceceb6818a838774f95ad5aad8d49c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581579564610737","authorIdStr":"3581579564610737"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/805584469","repostId":"1188341401","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":127,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805224260,"gmtCreate":1627885692050,"gmtModify":1631891102278,"author":{"id":"3581579564610737","authorId":"3581579564610737","name":"psn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02ceceb6818a838774f95ad5aad8d49c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581579564610737","authorIdStr":"3581579564610737"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh","listText":"Oh","text":"Oh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/805224260","repostId":"1110948119","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1110948119","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627872837,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1110948119?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-02 10:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Bans \"Tinder For Anti-Vaxxers\" On App Store","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110948119","media":"zerohedge","summary":"Apple on Saturday removed a dating app for unvaccinated people.

Videogame studios have sometimes operated like the fun little diversions in product development, forming small groups willing to fail spectacularly in search of a big hit, while paying little and supervising employees even less. Those issues came to light again when the state of California recently sued Activision Blizzard, portraying a toxic workplace culture , French company Ubisoft Entertainment SA .</p>\n<p>Employees are not alone in seeking a change in practices in the videogame industry. MarketWatch readers may remember that Activision already faced a revolt from shareholders as well this year . Activision investors sent its stock to its worst week in more than a year amid the most recent controversy, down 8.6%, and shares are now down nearly 10% on the year despite strong growth.</p>\n<p>Expectations for upcoming earnings reports show that Wall Street, like employees, are expecting these companies to show greater maturity. While the boom in videogames during the pandemic has brought new investors and attention, the companies are expected to struggle to show gains from last year as they lap the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>While Cowen analyst Doug Creutz doesn't expect a major downturn in the third quarter, he cautioned in a recent note that investors \"may see some softening\" after a second quarter of beats, but believes fundamentals are strong \"with 2020's growth spurt due to shelter-in-place not appearing to reverse despite increasing levels of vaccination.\"</p>\n<p>Analysts also see the same problem that many gamers voice: The industry doesn't seem to be heading anywhere new and exciting, with sequels and retreads lining the release calendar, and potential next-generation technology such as augmented- and virtual-reality and streaming not looking strong enough yet to support a strong \"secular thesis,\" Creutz wrote.</p>\n<p>VR, AR and other new technologies \"are good businesses, with above-GDP growth prospects for the foreseeable future (assuming competent execution), but we believe there is no shiny overarching thesis to bring new money in,\" Creutz said.</p>\n<p>Creutz has outperform ratings on Take-<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a>, EA, and Zygna <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZNGA\">$(ZNGA)$</a>, but a market perform rating on Activision. All four of those companies will report earnings this week -- Take-<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA\">Two</a> on Monday, Activision on Tuesday, EA on Wednesday and Zynga on Thursday. Look for signs that the growth in videogames may slacken in the months ahead, and the companies themselves may be looking to change.</p>\n<p>\"Ultimately, we think commentary about trends the companies are seeing in Q3 will be the most important factor during reporting season, with the potential to reassure investors that the gains in engagement and monetization made during the pandemic are in fact quite sticky,\" Creutz wrote.</p>\n<p>The numbers to watch</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>COVID-19 vaccine sales</b>. Moderna Inc.MRNAreports earnings on Thursday for the first time sincejoining the S&amp;P 500 indexSPX,and all eyes will be on the company’s sales of its COVID-19 vaccine. Pfizer Inc.PFEreported roughly $8 billion in vaccine sales, putting it on pace to approach $34 billion in annual sales. Pfizer confirmed plans to seek U.S. approval for a booster shot while confirming a higher per-shot price in a recent deal with the U.S., from $19.50 to $24, according to Mizuho Securities analysts. Investors, who have pushed Moderna shares up more than 377% in the past year, will be looking for similar information from executives.</li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Ride-hailing recovery.</b>Uber Technologies Inc.UBERand Lyft Inc.LYFTreport results this week, and both ride-hailing companies are trading lower than the prices commanded during their 2019 initial public offerings. The companies have been struggling to get drivers back in their cars while struggling to properly incorporate new pay practices in California. Investors will be looking for signs that some of the pandemic-related issues in ride-hailing are easing, while looking carefully at Uber’s expensive attempts to boost its other businesses.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The call to put on your calendar</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Alibaba Group Holding LTD.</b>BABAAmid questions about the future of Chinese stocks listed on U.S. exchanges, the biggest of that group will report earnings Tuesday morning. Alibaba stock plunged 13.9% in July, its worst monthly performance in more than two years, even though analysts such as Raymond James’s Aaron Kessler say, “We believe most of these new regulations do not impact Alibaba.” Expect executives on the call Tuesday to address those concerns, while playing up the company’s quarterly performance, which included the 6/18 shopping event in China.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This week in earnings</p>\n<p>Roughly 148 S&amp;P 500 companies are expected to report this week, according to FactSet, while only one Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIAcomponent is on the calendar, Amgen Inc.&nbsp;Non Tuesday.

Videogame studios have sometimes operated like the fun little diversions in product development, forming small groups willing to fail spectacularly in search of a big hit, while paying little and supervising employees even less. Those issues came to light again when the state of California recently sued Activision Blizzard, portraying a toxic workplace culture , French company Ubisoft Entertainment SA .\nEmployees are not alone in seeking a change in practices in the videogame industry. MarketWatch readers may remember that Activision already faced a revolt from shareholders as well this year . Activision investors sent its stock to its worst week in more than a year amid the most recent controversy, down 8.6%, and shares are now down nearly 10% on the year despite strong growth.\nExpectations for upcoming earnings reports show that Wall Street, like employees, are expecting these companies to show greater maturity. While the boom in videogames during the pandemic has brought new investors and attention, the companies are expected to struggle to show gains from last year as they lap the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.\nWhile Cowen analyst Doug Creutz doesn't expect a major downturn in the third quarter, he cautioned in a recent note that investors \"may see some softening\" after a second quarter of beats, but believes fundamentals are strong \"with 2020's growth spurt due to shelter-in-place not appearing to reverse despite increasing levels of vaccination.\"\nAnalysts also see the same problem that many gamers voice: The industry doesn't seem to be heading anywhere new and exciting, with sequels and retreads lining the release calendar, and potential next-generation technology such as augmented- and virtual-reality and streaming not looking strong enough yet to support a strong \"secular thesis,\" Creutz wrote.\nVR, AR and other new technologies \"are good businesses, with above-GDP growth prospects for the foreseeable future (assuming competent execution), but we believe there is no shiny overarching thesis to bring new money in,\" Creutz said.\nCreutz has outperform ratings on Take-Two, EA, and Zygna $(ZNGA)$, but a market perform rating on Activision. All four of those companies will report earnings this week -- Take-Two on Monday, Activision on Tuesday, EA on Wednesday and Zynga on Thursday. Look for signs that the growth in videogames may slacken in the months ahead, and the companies themselves may be looking to change.\n\"Ultimately, we think commentary about trends the companies are seeing in Q3 will be the most important factor during reporting season, with the potential to reassure investors that the gains in engagement and monetization made during the pandemic are in fact quite sticky,\" Creutz wrote.\nThe numbers to watch\n\nCOVID-19 vaccine sales. Moderna Inc.MRNAreports earnings on Thursday for the first time sincejoining the S&P 500 indexSPX,and all eyes will be on the company’s sales of its COVID-19 vaccine. Pfizer Inc.PFEreported roughly $8 billion in vaccine sales, putting it on pace to approach $34 billion in annual sales. Pfizer confirmed plans to seek U.S. approval for a booster shot while confirming a higher per-shot price in a recent deal with the U.S., from $19.50 to $24, according to Mizuho Securities analysts. Investors, who have pushed Moderna shares up more than 377% in the past year, will be looking for similar information from executives.\n\n\nRide-hailing recovery.Uber Technologies Inc.UBERand Lyft Inc.LYFTreport results this week, and both ride-hailing companies are trading lower than the prices commanded during their 2019 initial public offerings. The companies have been struggling to get drivers back in their cars while struggling to properly incorporate new pay practices in California. Investors will be looking for signs that some of the pandemic-related issues in ride-hailing are easing, while looking carefully at Uber’s expensive attempts to boost its other businesses.\n\nThe call to put on your calendar\n\nAlibaba Group Holding LTD.BABAAmid questions about the future of Chinese stocks listed on U.S. exchanges, the biggest of that group will report earnings Tuesday morning. Alibaba stock plunged 13.9% in July, its worst monthly performance in more than two years, even though analysts such as Raymond James’s Aaron Kessler say, “We believe most of these new regulations do not impact Alibaba.” Expect executives on the call Tuesday to address those concerns, while playing up the company’s quarterly performance, which included the 6/18 shopping event in China.\n\nThis week in earnings\nRoughly 148 S&P 500 companies are expected to report this week, according to FactSet, while only one Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIAcomponent is on the calendar, Amgen Inc. Non Tuesday. The calendar is stacked with companies not in the major indexes, though, including Alibaba and Lyft on Tuesday, Uber on Wednesday, Beyond Meat Inc. Dand fresh spin-off Vimeo Inc. on Thursday, and DraftKings Inc.DKNGon Friday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805225021,"gmtCreate":1627885544163,"gmtModify":1631891102301,"author":{"id":"3581579564610737","authorId":"3581579564610737","name":"psn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02ceceb6818a838774f95ad5aad8d49c","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581579564610737","authorIdStr":"3581579564610737"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/805225021","repostId":"1125701487","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1125701487","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627873620,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1125701487?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-02 11:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon is Running Out of Storage Space...And Manpower","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1125701487","media":"The Motley Fool","summary":"There were weeks last year when Amazon.com, the world's largest e-commerce company, turned away stoc","content":"<p>There were weeks last year when <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon.com</a>, the world's largest e-commerce company, turned away stock shipments to its warehouses due to a lack of storage space and warehouse employees.</p>\n<p>Seven months through 2021, the company is still in a mad dash to catch up.

Their market caps, not so much.\nThis past week, the world’s fiv","content":"<p>Big tech stocks keep getting bigger. Their market caps, not so much.</p>\n<p>This past week, the world’s five largest tech companies—Apple (ticker: AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon.com (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Facebook (FB)—all reported quarterly results. Their collective performance was astonishing. As a group, their revenue increased 36%, to $332 billion. These companies spent the pandemic making gobs of money.</p>\n<p>But&nbsp;investors were unimpressed. While Alphabet inched 1.3% higher for the week, the others were all down. Amazongot the worst reception; its stock fell 7.6% on Friday. With all five hovering near all-time highs, investors are taking profits, worried that growth rates are going to slow from here. Beneath the surface, the concerns are well founded. Here are the key takeaways from Big Tech’s huge earnings:</p>\n<p><b>The pandemic boom is over.</b>That’s not to say the pandemic itself is over—the Delta variant is wreaking havoc—but Americans have already made changes in their behavior, and those adjustments are having a major impact on the tech giants.</p>\n<p>It starts with e-commerce. Amazon Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said on the company’s earnings call that starting in mid-May, growth in e-commerce sales dropped into the midteens from the 30%-to-40% range. People are getting vaccines and leaving the house to buy things that just a few months ago they would have bought online. They’re also shifting some disposable income from online shopping to travel, restaurants, and even events. Olsavsky sees continued tough comparisons for Amazon—and midteens growth rates—for the next few quarters.</p>\n<p>Apple&nbsp;beat expectations in all of its segments, but growth is slowing there, too. Mac sales were up 16% in the June quarter, down from 70% growth three months earlier. iPad sales were up 12%, versus 79% in the March period. This is all still better than before the pandemic, but it suggests that the furious shopping spree for home offices and virtual schooling is coming to an end.Logitech(LOGI), which makes PC peripherals like mice and webcams, had 66% revenue growth in the June quarter, but it sees flat revenue for its fiscal year ending in March 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Component shortages continue.</b>The market’s biggest issue with Apple’s quarter was its warning that the chip supply shortage has worsened since the end of June—and that the issue will affect the availability of iPads and, even worse, iPhones. In September, Apple is expected to&nbsp;release the iPhone 13—and there’s a risk that Apple might not be able to meet demand.Qualcomm(QCOM) this past week warned that the chip shortage could drag into 2022. This could take a while to fix.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook said on the company’s earnings call that shipping costs are higher, too. I saw evidence of that from my seat at a San Francisco Giants game this past week. Looking past McCovey Cove toward San Francisco Bay, there were at least a dozen container ships lined up to get into the Port of Oakland, which saw an 11% increase in cargo volume in the first half. The port is backed up in part due to a shortage of dockworkers. Freight rates are at record levels, and the holiday merchandising season is fast approaching, adding to demand for freight capacity.</p>\n<p><b>Online advertising is blazing hot.</b>On a brighter note for investors, Alphabet’s&nbsp;ad business grew 68% in the latest quarter, including an 84% jump in advertising at YouTube. Facebook’s&nbsp;ad business grew 56%, driven by a 47% year-over-year increase in ad pricing. Amazon’s “other” revenue category, mostly ads, was up 87%, to $7.9 billion, nearly $1 billion better than Wall Street estimates. Apple doesn’t break out advertising, but ad strength contributed to the 33% growth in the company’s services business. Microsoft saw a&nbsp;53% jump in search ads&nbsp;(remember Bing?) and a 97% jump in advertising at LinkedIn. It all stems from the reopening of the economy. Alphabet told analysts that the biggest driver of ad growth was retail, with strong contributions from travel, financial services, and media and entertainment. People are shopping, eating out, and going on vacation, and that’s driving ads.</p>\n<p><b>Cloud adoption is accelerating.</b>The digital transformation trend that everyone in enterprise computing talks about is the real deal. For Amazon, the slowdown in e-commerce growth overshadowed a fantastic quarter for its Amazon Web Services cloud unit, which grew 37%—accelerating from 32% in the March quarter— to $14.8 billion. That was $500 million better than estimates. Microsoft Azure revenue was up 51%, beating the Wall Street consensus by nine percentage points. Alphabet posted 54% growth in its Google Cloud business, accelerating from 46% growth in the March quarter. Google Cloud is rapidly approaching a $20 billion annual revenue run rate.

Their market caps, not so much.\nThis past week, the world’s five largest tech companies—Apple (ticker: AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon.com (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Facebook (FB)—all reported quarterly results. Their collective performance was astonishing. As a group, their revenue increased 36%, to $332 billion. These companies spent the pandemic making gobs of money.\nBut investors were unimpressed. While Alphabet inched 1.3% higher for the week, the others were all down. Amazongot the worst reception; its stock fell 7.6% on Friday. With all five hovering near all-time highs, investors are taking profits, worried that growth rates are going to slow from here. Beneath the surface, the concerns are well founded. Here are the key takeaways from Big Tech’s huge earnings:\nThe pandemic boom is over.That’s not to say the pandemic itself is over—the Delta variant is wreaking havoc—but Americans have already made changes in their behavior, and those adjustments are having a major impact on the tech giants.\nIt starts with e-commerce. Amazon Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said on the company’s earnings call that starting in mid-May, growth in e-commerce sales dropped into the midteens from the 30%-to-40% range. People are getting vaccines and leaving the house to buy things that just a few months ago they would have bought online. They’re also shifting some disposable income from online shopping to travel, restaurants, and even events. Olsavsky sees continued tough comparisons for Amazon—and midteens growth rates—for the next few quarters.\nApple beat expectations in all of its segments, but growth is slowing there, too. Mac sales were up 16% in the June quarter, down from 70% growth three months earlier. iPad sales were up 12%, versus 79% in the March period. This is all still better than before the pandemic, but it suggests that the furious shopping spree for home offices and virtual schooling is coming to an end.Logitech(LOGI), which makes PC peripherals like mice and webcams, had 66% revenue growth in the June quarter, but it sees flat revenue for its fiscal year ending in March 2022.\nComponent shortages continue.The market’s biggest issue with Apple’s quarter was its warning that the chip supply shortage has worsened since the end of June—and that the issue will affect the availability of iPads and, even worse, iPhones. In September, Apple is expected to release the iPhone 13—and there’s a risk that Apple might not be able to meet demand.Qualcomm(QCOM) this past week warned that the chip shortage could drag into 2022. This could take a while to fix.\nMeanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook said on the company’s earnings call that shipping costs are higher, too. I saw evidence of that from my seat at a San Francisco Giants game this past week. Looking past McCovey Cove toward San Francisco Bay, there were at least a dozen container ships lined up to get into the Port of Oakland, which saw an 11% increase in cargo volume in the first half. The port is backed up in part due to a shortage of dockworkers. Freight rates are at record levels, and the holiday merchandising season is fast approaching, adding to demand for freight capacity.\nOnline advertising is blazing hot.On a brighter note for investors, Alphabet’s ad business grew 68% in the latest quarter, including an 84% jump in advertising at YouTube. Facebook’s ad business grew 56%, driven by a 47% year-over-year increase in ad pricing. Amazon’s “other” revenue category, mostly ads, was up 87%, to $7.9 billion, nearly $1 billion better than Wall Street estimates. Apple doesn’t break out advertising, but ad strength contributed to the 33% growth in the company’s services business. Microsoft saw a 53% jump in search ads (remember Bing?) and a 97% jump in advertising at LinkedIn. It all stems from the reopening of the economy. Alphabet told analysts that the biggest driver of ad growth was retail, with strong contributions from travel, financial services, and media and entertainment. People are shopping, eating out, and going on vacation, and that’s driving ads.\nCloud adoption is accelerating.The digital transformation trend that everyone in enterprise computing talks about is the real deal. For Amazon, the slowdown in e-commerce growth overshadowed a fantastic quarter for its Amazon Web Services cloud unit, which grew 37%—accelerating from 32% in the March quarter— to $14.8 billion. That was $500 million better than estimates. Microsoft Azure revenue was up 51%, beating the Wall Street consensus by nine percentage points. Alphabet posted 54% growth in its Google Cloud business, accelerating from 46% growth in the March quarter. Google Cloud is rapidly approaching a $20 billion annual revenue run rate. Give it a cloud-like sales multiple of 20 times and the business is worth $400 billion, constituting more than 20% of Alphabet’s current market value.\nThe wild card.Regulators and legislators scrutinizing Big Tech are surely looking at the latest results and finding a new sense of purpose. The big are getting bigger. And the regulatory risks are getting riskier.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":158,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":false}
