Micro Devices reported its revenues and earnings for the second quarter ended June 30 excee","content":"<p>Advanced Micro Devices reported its revenues and earnings for the second quarter ended June 30 exceeded expectations, with revenue growing 99% to $3.85 billion.</p>\n<p>Non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $778 million, or 63 cents a share, beating expectations of 54 cents a share on a non-GAAP basis. AMD said it was increasing its annual earnings forecast.</p>\n<p>The Santa Clara, California-based company has had a good run on momentum behind its Zen and Zen 2 architectures for processors, which can generate 50% or more better performance per clock cycle than the previous generation. This architecture put AMD ahead of Intel in performance for the first time in a decade, and it has helped the perennial No. 2 PC chip maker into a fast-growing contender against Intel.</p>\n<p>Intel, meanwhile, has had stumbles not only on the chip design side but also in manufacturing, where it has lost its technological advantage to rivals such as TSMC, which makes both processors and graphics chips for AMD. As a result, AMD has been making historic market share gains for the past three years. What’s interesting is AMD has been making these gains amid a historic chip shortage driven by the supply whipsaw from the pandemic and unprecedented demand for electronic goods.</p>\n<p>“Our business performed exceptionally well in the second quarter as revenue and operating margin doubled and profitability more than tripled year-over-year,” AMD CEO Lisa Su said in a statement. “We are growing significantly faster than the market with strong demand across all of our businesses. We now expect our 2021 annual revenue to grow by approximately 60% year-over-year driven by strong execution and increased customer preference for our leadership products.”</p>\n<p>Intel, meanwhile, is doubling down on its manufacturing investments as a way to stay competitive and take advantage of the chip boom and supply shortage.</p>\n<h4>Quarterly financial segment summary</h4>\n<p>Computing and graphics segment revenue was $2.25 billion, up 65% year-over-year and 7% quarter-over-quarter driven by higher client and graphics processor sales. Client processor average selling price (ASP) grew year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter driven by a richer mix of Ryzen desktop and notebook processor sales. It was the fifth straight quarter of record processor revenue.</p>\n<p>Graphics processing unit (GPU) ASP grew year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter driven by high-end graphics product sales, including datacenter GPU sales. Operating income was $526 million, compared to $200 million a year ago and $485 million in the prior quarter. The increases were primarily driven by higher revenue.</p>\n<p>Enterprise, embedded, and semi-custom segment revenue was $1.6 billion, up 183% year-over-year and 19% quarter-over-quarter. The increases were driven by higher Epyc processor revenue and semi-custom product sales. The semi-custom products include processors for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S game consoles.</p>\n<h4>Optimistic Revenue Outlook on Strong Demand</h4>\n<p>AMD gave a bullish third-quarter sales forecast, indicating it’s gaining market share from Intel Corp. in the lucrative market for server chips.</p>\n<p>AMD, the second-largest maker of computer processors behind Intel, predicted third-quarter revenue will be about $4.1 billion, plus or minus $100 million. On average, analysts had projected revenue of $3.8 billion. The company also raised its annual outlook and now expects revenue to increase by 60% up from a previous forecast for 50% growth.</p>\n<p>Chief Executive Officer Lisa Su has brought the company back from the brink of irrelevance with a raft of new products that customers see as competitive with Intel’s offerings for the first time in years. Investors have poured money into AMD’s stock over the last five years, expecting Su’s changes to result in higher market share and earnings.</p>\n<p>“We are growing significantly faster than the market with strong demand across all of our businesses,” Su said in a statement.</p>\n<p>AMD’s earnings report Tuesday indicates the company is taking market share at Intel’s expense. Intel, the world’s largest superconductor manufacturer, reported a 6% decline in second-quarter revenue. AMD also competes with Nvidia Corp. in the market for graphics processors used in cards for gaming personal computers.</p>\n<p>Su said the company can continue to grow, even if PC demand falls in 2022. “We expect our competition to be really good and we need to be better than that,” Su said during a conference call after the results.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The rising AMD is getting aggressive</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 rising AMD is getting aggressive\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-08-03 18:37</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Advanced Micro Devices reported its revenues and earnings for the second quarter ended June 30 exceeded expectations, with revenue growing 99% to $3.85 billion.</p>\n<p>Non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $778 million, or 63 cents a share, beating expectations of 54 cents a share on a non-GAAP basis.

AMD said it was increasing its annual earnings forecast.\nThe Santa Clara, California-based company has had a good run on momentum behind its Zen and Zen 2 architectures for processors, which can generate 50% or more better performance per clock cycle than the previous generation. This architecture put AMD ahead of Intel in performance for the first time in a decade, and it has helped the perennial No. 2 PC chip maker into a fast-growing contender against Intel.\nIntel, meanwhile, has had stumbles not only on the chip design side but also in manufacturing, where it has lost its technological advantage to rivals such as TSMC, which makes both processors and graphics chips for AMD. As a result, AMD has been making historic market share gains for the past three years. What’s interesting is AMD has been making these gains amid a historic chip shortage driven by the supply whipsaw from the pandemic and unprecedented demand for electronic goods.\n“Our business performed exceptionally well in the second quarter as revenue and operating margin doubled and profitability more than tripled year-over-year,” AMD CEO Lisa Su said in a statement. “We are growing significantly faster than the market with strong demand across all of our businesses. We now expect our 2021 annual revenue to grow by approximately 60% year-over-year driven by strong execution and increased customer preference for our leadership products.”\nIntel, meanwhile, is doubling down on its manufacturing investments as a way to stay competitive and take advantage of the chip boom and supply shortage.\nQuarterly financial segment summary\nComputing and graphics segment revenue was $2.25 billion, up 65% year-over-year and 7% quarter-over-quarter driven by higher client and graphics processor sales. Client processor average selling price (ASP) grew year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter driven by a richer mix of Ryzen desktop and notebook processor sales. It was the fifth straight quarter of record processor revenue.\nGraphics processing unit (GPU) ASP grew year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter driven by high-end graphics product sales, including datacenter GPU sales. Operating income was $526 million, compared to $200 million a year ago and $485 million in the prior quarter. The increases were primarily driven by higher revenue.\nEnterprise, embedded, and semi-custom segment revenue was $1.6 billion, up 183% year-over-year and 19% quarter-over-quarter. The increases were driven by higher Epyc processor revenue and semi-custom product sales. The semi-custom products include processors for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S game consoles.\nOptimistic Revenue Outlook on Strong Demand\nAMD gave a bullish third-quarter sales forecast, indicating it’s gaining market share from Intel Corp. in the lucrative market for server chips.\nAMD, the second-largest maker of computer processors behind Intel, predicted third-quarter revenue will be about $4.1 billion, plus or minus $100 million. On average, analysts had projected revenue of $3.8 billion. The company also raised its annual outlook and now expects revenue to increase by 60% up from a previous forecast for 50% growth.\nChief Executive Officer Lisa Su has brought the company back from the brink of irrelevance with a raft of new products that customers see as competitive with Intel’s offerings for the first time in years. Investors have poured money into AMD’s stock over the last five years, expecting Su’s changes to result in higher market share and earnings.\n“We are growing significantly faster than the market with strong demand across all of our businesses,” Su said in a statement.\nAMD’s earnings report Tuesday indicates the company is taking market share at Intel’s expense. Intel, the world’s largest superconductor manufacturer, reported a 6% decline in second-quarter revenue. AMD also competes with Nvidia Corp. in the market for graphics processors used in cards for gaming personal computers.\nSu said the company can continue to grow, even if PC demand falls in 2022. “We expect our competition to be really good and we need to be better than that,” Su said during a conference call after the results.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMD":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2745,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804918392,"gmtCreate":1627915660616,"gmtModify":1703497868688,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes!","listText":"Yes!","text":"Yes!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/804918392","repostId":"1155693481","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155693481","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1627913458,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155693481?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-02 22:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla rose nearly 5% in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155693481","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":" $Tesla Motors$ rose nearly 5% in morning trading.Elon Musk confirms Tesla AI Day will be on August 19.In addition ,Last Thursday, Benzinga Proalerted its users Tesla hadfiled a patentthat would allow it to recover and recycle nickel and cobalt from old lithium-ion EV batteries.The patent, titled “Metal Sulfate Manufacturing System via Electrochemical Dissolution,” would allow the EV and technology company to recover the two crucial raw battery metals and reuse them making its supply chain more ","content":"<p>(August 2)&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla Motors</a> rose nearly 5% in morning trading.</p>\n<p>Elon Musk confirms Tesla AI Day will be on August 19.</p>\n<p>In&nbsp;addition&nbsp;,Last Thursday,&nbsp;Benzinga Proalerted its users Tesla hadfiled a patentthat would allow it to recover and recycle nickel and cobalt from old lithium-ion EV batteries.</p>\n<p>The patent, titled “Metal Sulfate Manufacturing System via Electrochemical Dissolution,” would allow the EV and technology company to recover the two crucial raw battery metals and reuse them making its supply chain more efficient.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9faf5c64c1d04f0efe8c72c78addc130\" tg-width=\"725\" tg-height=\"633\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

On top of that, don't forget this $240 billion drugmaker remains <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the most dominanthealth care companieson the planet, and one of the most reliable dividend stocks out there with an amazing streak of 330 consecutive quarterly dividends paid to shareholders.</p>\n<p><b>Vedanta Ltd.

It also takes the energy sources it extracts and operates power generation facilities, operating an arm that is a major electric utility in the nation. Given that this stock is in an emerging market and not as large as other materials stocks at only about $14 billion, there's a bit more risk here than in other similar stocks. But with a generous dividend and rising revenues, thanks to the global economic recovery, this stock has been a top performer lately with year-to-date returns of more than 60% in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>Vistra Corp.

Right now, it has nearly 5 million residential, commercial and industrial connections in about 20 states. Additionally, it announced construction of a 1,600 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system in California, which has captivated investors. Shares have underperformed year to date in 2021, but are up about 30% from their spring lows -- and continue to offer a generous dividend on top of this short-term momentum.</p>","source":"lsy1627705648360","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>5 Best Dividend Stocks to Buy in August</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n5 Best Dividend Stocks to Buy in August\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-31 12:16 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/5-best-dividend-stocks-buy-175503089.html><strong>US News</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In late July, the Dow Jones Industrial Average slid more than 700 points in a single session to log its worst single-day decline since October.

(PFE)\nDividend yield:3.6%\nBig Pharma mainstay Pfizer has outperformed the broader stock market slightly in 2021, continuing to ride high on its high-profile success developing an effective coronavirus vaccine. Given the risk posed by variants of the disease, along with a continued push to vaccinate worldwide now that many developed markets have gotten their shots, investors could continue to see a decent tailwind for PFE in the near term. On top of that, don't forget this $240 billion drugmaker remains one of the most dominanthealth care companieson the planet, and one of the most reliable dividend stocks out there with an amazing streak of 330 consecutive quarterly dividends paid to shareholders.\nVedanta Ltd. (VEDL)\nDividend yield:5.1%\nVedanta is an India-based industrial conglomerate that operates a diversified natural resources business spanning oil and gas production as well as coal,silverandcoppermining. It also takes the energy sources it extracts and operates power generation facilities, operating an arm that is a major electric utility in the nation. Given that this stock is in an emerging market and not as large as other materials stocks at only about $14 billion, there's a bit more risk here than in other similar stocks. But with a generous dividend and rising revenues, thanks to the global economic recovery, this stock has been a top performer lately with year-to-date returns of more than 60% in 2021.\nVistra Corp. (VST)\nDividend yield:3.1%\nA Texas-based utility company, Vistra is an electricity provider -- one of the most stable businesses on Wall Street. But VST also has modest growth potential as it operates in six of the seven wholesale markets where utilities compete for customers, thanks to deregulation. Right now, it has nearly 5 million residential, commercial and industrial connections in about 20 states. Additionally, it announced construction of a 1,600 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system in California, which has captivated investors. Shares have underperformed year to date in 2021, but are up about 30% from their spring lows -- and continue to offer a generous dividend on top of this short-term momentum.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"PFE":0.9,"NAVI":0.9,"VEDL":0.9,"BOTB.UK":0.9,"EPR":0.9,"VST":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2132,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":806596878,"gmtCreate":1627663966694,"gmtModify":1703494438342,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go Tesla","listText":"Go go Tesla","text":"Go go Tesla","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/806596878","repostId":"2155377091","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2362,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":808375093,"gmtCreate":1627561859212,"gmtModify":1703492392150,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I love $se!&nbsp;","listText":"I love $se!&nbsp;","text":"I love $se!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/808375093","repostId":"2155007909","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2542,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":800003559,"gmtCreate":1627264570471,"gmtModify":1703486240822,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go!","listText":"Go go!","text":"Go go!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/800003559","repostId":"1100772026","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2039,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":177170093,"gmtCreate":1627190283612,"gmtModify":1703485363102,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice!","listText":"Nice!","text":"Nice!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/177170093","repostId":"1176552691","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176552691","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627183789,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176552691?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-25 11:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is IBM Stock Undervalued Or Overvalued?

Among the Fortune 50 companies, 47 are IBM clients.</p>\n<p>Half of the world’s wireless connections are handled by the firm.</p>\n<p>IBM's mainframe systems process nearly 90% of the globe’s credit card transactions, and 97% of the world's largest banks rely on IBM products and services. Consequently, twenty-nine billion ATM transactions are processed annually using IBM systems.</p>\n<p>Eight out of 10 global retailers rely on IBM products and services while 80% of the travel industry's reservations run through IBM systems. That results in 4 billion flight reservations being processed using the company’s IT services.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ace4f1436fd2697c5ad266b5017e1dd\" tg-width=\"960\" tg-height=\"721\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Forbes</span></p>\n<p>It is evident that IBM has a massive customer base that provides large scale recurring revenues. In many cases, moving to competitors' offerings would mean risking the transfer of sensitive information, a move many are not willing to take.</p>\n<p>However, with the transition to cloud services and open source software, there is an increased adoption by firms of mix and match IT infrastructures. In turn, this is eroding IBM’s competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs.</p>\n<p><b>The Sources Of Potential Growth</b></p>\n<p>Investors are generally aware of IBM's effort to drive growth through its hybrid cloud offerings. However, when questioned at JPMorgan’s recent investor conference, CFO Jim Kavanaugh&nbsp;provided insight&nbsp;into how hybrid cloud drives revenue in some of IBM’s other divisions.</p>\n<blockquote>\n For every $1 (in business) we land on a hybrid cloud platform, we see $3 to $5 of software drag and $6 to $8 of services drag overall.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Of course, Kavanaugh is using drag to refer to increased revenue in software and services associated with adoption of IBM’s hybrid cloud. If Kavanaugh’s claims are accurate, that means every dollar spent on the company’s hybrid cloud platform translates into $9 to $13 in additional revenue from the firm’s software and services offerings.</p>\n<p>Because hybrid cloud uses a mix of on-premises private cloud and public cloud services, it offers clients a degree of data privacy. This is of particular concern for customers in healthcare and financial services. Consequently, I would posit that IBM might have an advantage in competing with other hybrid cloud providers as it has extensive relationships within those industries.</p>\n<p>I reviewed a variety of prognostications regarding projected growth rates for the hybrid cloud market. The most recent study, which also falls in the middle of other predictions, is by Mordor Intelligence. That firm&nbsp;forecasts&nbsp;a CAGR of 18.73% from 2021 through 2026.</p>\n<p>Investors should be aware that the major operators in this space are Cisco (CSCO), Hewlett Packard (HPE), Amazon (AMZN), Citrix Systems (CTXS), and IBM.</p>\n<p>The following chart provides a record of the firm’s total cloud growth over the last six quarters.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5fc85156e70f6caf8ae809f76126a723\" tg-width=\"576\" tg-height=\"336\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Company reports / Chart by Author</span></p>\n<p>Aside from cloud, there is another source of potential growth, although it is unlikely to materialize soon.</p>\n<p>Early in 2019, IBM&nbsp;introduced&nbsp;the Q System One. IBM Q systems are the world's first quantum computer designed for scientific and commercial use.</p>\n<p>Pardon the pun, but quantum computers represent a quantum leap in technology. Prescient And Strategic Intelligence&nbsp;forecasts&nbsp;a CAGR of 56% for the industry through 2030 with the quantum computer market share reaching nearly $65 billion.</p>\n<p>For additional insights regarding quantum computing and IBM’s position within that industry, I point you to&nbsp;my article, “IBM: Why My Eye Is Fixed On Big Blue.”</p>\n<p><b>Understanding Kyndryl</b></p>\n<p>Once&nbsp;Kyndryl&nbsp;is launched, it will have more than 90,000 employees and more than 4,600 customers in 115 countries. With a $60 billion services backlog, the new entity will begin with projected revenues of $19 billion. At twice the size of its closest competitor, the company will be the world’s largest managed infrastructure services provider.</p>\n<p>The split will&nbsp;transform&nbsp;IBM from a company that pulls half of its revenue from services to a firm with its software and solutions businesses generating over half of its revenue on a recurring basis.</p>\n<p>Global Business Services, which currently constitutes 22% of the company’s revenue, will&nbsp;account&nbsp;for over 40% of sales. Here it is important to note that the division grew revenue by 12% year over year in the last quarter.</p>\n<p>IBM will retain Red Hat and its solution provider business, the systems businesses, and its mission-critical public cloud service, and a software portfolio focused on big data, AI, and security.</p>\n<p>Initially, the two companies will each be the largest customer of the other.</p>\n<p>What remains to be known regarding the spinoff is how much debt each company will shoulder, and the share of the dividend that the companies will pay. Krishna stated the two companies will work together to sustain the current payout level.</p>\n<p><b>Has IBM Turned The Corner?</b></p>\n<p>Anyone who follows IBM knows the company has experienced an extended period of poor results. The following chart provides a record of the firm’s quarterly FCF over the last fourteen quarters.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60cc8b82052f97dd449205999ee30711\" tg-width=\"577\" tg-height=\"337\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Data from ycharts / chart by author</span></p>\n<p>While this is not proof positive that the company is back on track, the recent trend is at least encouraging.</p>\n<p>In 2020, IBM generated $10.8 billion in free cash flow. Management guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021. This excludes $3 billion in structural impacts related to the Kyndryl spinoff.</p>\n<p>The CEO&nbsp;recently stated&nbsp;he expects IBM to generate $12 billion to $13 billion in FCF in 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Debt And Dividend</b></p>\n<p>While investors can rightfully complain of a variety of management moves over the years, the firm has maintained a reasonable debt profile while engaging in a number of acquisitions.</p>\n<p>The company has reduced the debt by roughly $18 billion since its peak in mid-2019. IBM maintains an investment level credit rating, and the following chart provides a record of the company’s progress paying down debt of late.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b73e613157c486a5f5e8306546121971\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"720\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: IBM Presentation</span></p>\n<p>IBM has a yield of 4.64%, a payout ratio a bit below 61%, and a 5 year dividend growth rate of 4.26%. As previously noted, following the spinoff of Kyndryl, the two companies will team to provide a payout equivalent to the current dividend.</p>\n<p><b>Is IBM Stock Overvalued?</b></p>\n<p>IBM shares trade for $141.13. The average 12 month price target of 8 analysts is $153.50. The price target of the 3 analysts rating the stock since the last earnings report is $151.33.</p>\n<p>IBM has a P/E of 24.05x and a forward P/E of 17.67x. This compares to its five year averages of 16.42x and 13.25x respectively. It is well below the sector average which is in the low thirties for both metrics.</p>\n<p>The 3 to 5 year PEG provided by Seeking Alpha Premium is 1.16x. Schwab calculates a PEG of 1.49x, and Yahoo does not provide a PEG ratio.</p>\n<p>I believe the current P/E ratios for the stock reflect investors anticipating increased growth for IBM once the spinoff is complete. The PEG ratios show the stock is reasonably valued.</p>\n<p><b>Is IBM Stock A Good Long-Term Investment?</b></p>\n<p>IBM has an entrenched but evolving position among many of the largest companies on the globe. Unfortunately, the cloud, which is seen as the company’s primary avenue for growth, could also lead to a slow deterioration in some of the firm’s legacy businesses.</p>\n<p>That the cloud business has been growing at a rapid pace is manifest: IBM can now boast of over 3,200 clients using the firm’s hybrid cloud platform. That is nearly four times the number just prior to the Red Hat acquisition.</p>\n<p>If management’s claims are accurate, the hybrid cloud platform will create robust growth in the software and services division’s revenues. When combined with the spinoff of Kyndryl’s slow growing managed infrastructure services business, it is reasonable to believe IBM will witness increased growth.</p>\n<p>IBM has a solid balance sheet, a robust yield, and when viewed using PEG ratios as a basis for valuing the stock, the shares are trading at a bit of a discount.</p>\n<p>All considered, I rate IBM as a BUY.</p>\n<p>I think the worst case short to mid-term scenario is that the company experiences slow growth while investors collect a rather robust dividend.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is IBM Stock Undervalued Or Overvalued?

In turn, this is eroding IBM’s competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs.\nThe Sources Of Potential Growth\nInvestors are generally aware of IBM's effort to drive growth through its hybrid cloud offerings. However, when questioned at JPMorgan’s recent investor conference, CFO Jim Kavanaugh provided insight into how hybrid cloud drives revenue in some of IBM’s other divisions.\n\n For every $1 (in business) we land on a hybrid cloud platform, we see $3 to $5 of software drag and $6 to $8 of services drag overall.\n\nOf course, Kavanaugh is using drag to refer to increased revenue in software and services associated with adoption of IBM’s hybrid cloud. If Kavanaugh’s claims are accurate, that means every dollar spent on the company’s hybrid cloud platform translates into $9 to $13 in additional revenue from the firm’s software and services offerings.\nBecause hybrid cloud uses a mix of on-premises private cloud and public cloud services, it offers clients a degree of data privacy. This is of particular concern for customers in healthcare and financial services. Consequently, I would posit that IBM might have an advantage in competing with other hybrid cloud providers as it has extensive relationships within those industries.\nI reviewed a variety of prognostications regarding projected growth rates for the hybrid cloud market. The most recent study, which also falls in the middle of other predictions, is by Mordor Intelligence. That firm forecasts a CAGR of 18.73% from 2021 through 2026.\nInvestors should be aware that the major operators in this space are Cisco (CSCO), Hewlett Packard (HPE), Amazon (AMZN), Citrix Systems (CTXS), and IBM.\nThe following chart provides a record of the firm’s total cloud growth over the last six quarters.\nSource: Company reports / Chart by Author\nAside from cloud, there is another source of potential growth, although it is unlikely to materialize soon.\nEarly in 2019, IBM introduced the Q System One. IBM Q systems are the world's first quantum computer designed for scientific and commercial use.\nPardon the pun, but quantum computers represent a quantum leap in technology. Prescient And Strategic Intelligence forecasts a CAGR of 56% for the industry through 2030 with the quantum computer market share reaching nearly $65 billion.\nFor additional insights regarding quantum computing and IBM’s position within that industry, I point you to my article, “IBM: Why My Eye Is Fixed On Big Blue.”\nUnderstanding Kyndryl\nOnce Kyndryl is launched, it will have more than 90,000 employees and more than 4,600 customers in 115 countries. With a $60 billion services backlog, the new entity will begin with projected revenues of $19 billion. At twice the size of its closest competitor, the company will be the world’s largest managed infrastructure services provider.\nThe split will transform IBM from a company that pulls half of its revenue from services to a firm with its software and solutions businesses generating over half of its revenue on a recurring basis.\nGlobal Business Services, which currently constitutes 22% of the company’s revenue, will account for over 40% of sales. Here it is important to note that the division grew revenue by 12% year over year in the last quarter.\nIBM will retain Red Hat and its solution provider business, the systems businesses, and its mission-critical public cloud service, and a software portfolio focused on big data, AI, and security.\nInitially, the two companies will each be the largest customer of the other.\nWhat remains to be known regarding the spinoff is how much debt each company will shoulder, and the share of the dividend that the companies will pay. Krishna stated the two companies will work together to sustain the current payout level.\nHas IBM Turned The Corner?\nAnyone who follows IBM knows the company has experienced an extended period of poor results. The following chart provides a record of the firm’s quarterly FCF over the last fourteen quarters.\nSource: Data from ycharts / chart by author\nWhile this is not proof positive that the company is back on track, the recent trend is at least encouraging.\nIn 2020, IBM generated $10.8 billion in free cash flow. Management guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021. This excludes $3 billion in structural impacts related to the Kyndryl spinoff.\nThe CEO recently stated he expects IBM to generate $12 billion to $13 billion in FCF in 2022.\nDebt And Dividend\nWhile investors can rightfully complain of a variety of management moves over the years, the firm has maintained a reasonable debt profile while engaging in a number of acquisitions.\nThe company has reduced the debt by roughly $18 billion since its peak in mid-2019. IBM maintains an investment level credit rating, and the following chart provides a record of the company’s progress paying down debt of late.\nSource: IBM Presentation\nIBM has a yield of 4.64%, a payout ratio a bit below 61%, and a 5 year dividend growth rate of 4.26%. As previously noted, following the spinoff of Kyndryl, the two companies will team to provide a payout equivalent to the current dividend.\nIs IBM Stock Overvalued?\nIBM shares trade for $141.13. The average 12 month price target of 8 analysts is $153.50. The price target of the 3 analysts rating the stock since the last earnings report is $151.33.\nIBM has a P/E of 24.05x and a forward P/E of 17.67x. This compares to its five year averages of 16.42x and 13.25x respectively. It is well below the sector average which is in the low thirties for both metrics.\nThe 3 to 5 year PEG provided by Seeking Alpha Premium is 1.16x. Schwab calculates a PEG of 1.49x, and Yahoo does not provide a PEG ratio.\nI believe the current P/E ratios for the stock reflect investors anticipating increased growth for IBM once the spinoff is complete. The PEG ratios show the stock is reasonably valued.\nIs IBM Stock A Good Long-Term Investment?\nIBM has an entrenched but evolving position among many of the largest companies on the globe. Unfortunately, the cloud, which is seen as the company’s primary avenue for growth, could also lead to a slow deterioration in some of the firm’s legacy businesses.\nThat the cloud business has been growing at a rapid pace is manifest: IBM can now boast of over 3,200 clients using the firm’s hybrid cloud platform. That is nearly four times the number just prior to the Red Hat acquisition.\nIf management’s claims are accurate, the hybrid cloud platform will create robust growth in the software and services division’s revenues. When combined with the spinoff of Kyndryl’s slow growing managed infrastructure services business, it is reasonable to believe IBM will witness increased growth.\nIBM has a solid balance sheet, a robust yield, and when viewed using PEG ratios as a basis for valuing the stock, the shares are trading at a bit of a discount.\nAll considered, I rate IBM as a BUY.\nI think the worst case short to mid-term scenario is that the company experiences slow growth while investors collect a rather robust dividend.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"IBM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":488,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":174075129,"gmtCreate":1627054940561,"gmtModify":1703483541196,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yay!","listText":"Yay!","text":"Yay!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/174075129","repostId":"2153984780","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":691,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":172073125,"gmtCreate":1626923837167,"gmtModify":1703480682902,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/172073125","repostId":"1170597291","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170597291","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626923172,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170597291?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-22 11:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Planning 5G-Enabled Budget iPhone: Report","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170597291","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Apple, Inc. is gearing up to launch the next iteration of its iPhone — theiPhone 13— in September, a","content":"<div>\n<p>Apple, Inc. is gearing up to launch the next iteration of its iPhone — theiPhone 13— in September, and analysts are optimistic concerning continued momentum for Cupertino's flagship product.\nIt now ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/tech/21/07/22085978/apple-planning-5g-enabled-budget-iphone-report\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Amazon.com, Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN)is the most dominant online retailer in the West, but other markets are primarily served by other online shopping companies. Coupang Inc.(NYSE:CPNG)from South Korea recently IPO'd in the US, and in this article, we will pitch the two against each other. Amazon looks like the more complete company with a wider moat to me, but Coupang is also an interesting play due to its position in an attractive, high-growth market.</p>\n<p><b>Coupang Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Coupang Inc. has IPO'd in the US in March, raising more than&nbsp;$4 billion. Shares are currently trading for $40, which is below the prices of ~$50 that the stock traded at shortly following its IPO:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc6beaaae203d6b0db64793dd67bbbc9\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Shares have, however, risen considerably from the lows that the company hit in May, which could be the result of improving sentiment as the company reported&nbsp;very solid Q1 results&nbsp;that showed the company grew faster than expected. The current consensus price target is $44, which indicates that analysts are expecting an upside potential of around 10% over the next year -- solid, but not spectacular. Coupang is backed by major investors including&nbsp;the Gates Foundation&nbsp;and Softbank(OTCPK:SFTBY), which indicates that this is much more than a hyped-up IPO.</p>\n<p><b>Amazon Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Amazon.com, Inc. has been trading for a much longer period than Coupang, and it is a way larger company already. Over the years, shares generated strong returns for investors that held onto shares, the 10-year return is north of 1,600%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6be201519c9538851784f110ef0f13f3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>In 2021, however, shares have so far not risen by a lot, as investors do seem to favor stocks with exposure to economic reopening right now. Energy names, hospitality, etc. have been hot so far this year, whereas the big tech names such as Amazon, which had been strong performers in 2020, have not experienced huge gains year-to-date. The current analyst consensus price target for Amazon's shares is $4240, which suggests upside potential of around 15%, a little more than what analysts are expecting from Coupang right now.</p>\n<p><b>Coupang's Size Relative To Amazon?</b></p>\n<p>It's pretty obvious that Coupang is not bigger than Amazon. It doesn't matter whether you look at market capitalizations, revenue, profits, cash flows, or the employee count, Amazon is a giant and significantly larger than its South Korean peer:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13e93ec2cee718b6836730e5b0d94cd2\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"577\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>This isn't too much of a surprise, as Amazon has been founded 27 years ago and has had a lot of time to grow, whereas Coupang has only been around for a little over a decade. Amazon in 2005, when it was 11 years old, was a way smaller company than it is today, and it also was still unprofitable -- as Coupang is today. There is, however, no need to always buy the biggest companies, thus Amazon being larger than Coupang today does not necessarily equate to Amazon being a better investment. Other factors have to be considered for that as well.</p>\n<p><b>Is Coupang Better Than Amazon?</b></p>\n<p>When considering an investment, things that should be factored in are the growth outlook for a company, the stock's valuation, the company's risk profile and standing relative to competitors, and the overall quality.</p>\n<p>Looking at Coupang and Amazon, both companies are naturally poised to benefit from a long-term megatrend -- shopping shifting from brick-and-mortar to e-commerce. Note that this doesn't mean that brick-and-mortar retailers are all poised to die out, as we believe that higher-quality brick-and-mortar retailers (e.g. Home Depot(NYSE:HD)) and higher-quality brick-and-mortar real estate (e.g. Simon Property Group(NYSE:SPG)) will continue to do well. It is nevertheless relatively clear that, overall, e-commerce will continue to gain market share versus brick-and-mortar, with lower-quality traditional retailers taking the majority of the hit. Some goods are just very easily bought online, e.g. everyday clothes, books, etc. and online retailers should continue to make gains in these areas. On top of that, the overall consumer market continues to grow in both the US and internationally, which benefits online retailers as well.</p>\n<p>Amazon and Coupang also have the ability to boost their growth by expanding into additional markets, either geographically, or by building out new businesses. Amazon has very successfully done so and has become a major retailer not only in the US, but in many additional markets on top of that, and Amazon has also successfully built out a high-growth cloud computing business and is becoming a major player in online advertising.</p>\n<p>Coupang, as a much smaller and younger company, has not had the ability to expand its business as much as Amazon yet. Still, the Korean online retailer has managed to grow its business at a highly attractive pace, and one might even say that Coupang has outperformed Amazon in its home market South Korea. The company's success can be attributed to a smart and customer-focused approach that includes<i>Dawn Delivery</i>, a service that allows customers to order before midnight and receiving their order before 7 am the next day. Coupang also has reduced cardboard packaging significantly relative to how other online retailers operate, a move that resonates well with environmentally conscious customers. Through these measures and others, Coupang has been able to deliver rapid revenue growth in the recent past, which includes a massive 75% revenue increase during the most recent quarter. Amazon grew its revenue by 44% in the most recent quarter, although it should be noted that Amazon is growing from a much larger base. The law of large numbers means that Amazon, due to its already very large size, can't grow at the rapid rates Coupang is currently seeing any longer, and the fact that Amazon is, despite its size, still growing at an attractive 40%+ pace is testament to its strong business model.</p>\n<p>Coupang is the higher-growth company today, and one can expect that this will remain the case in the foreseeable future, with the smaller size being a key factor for that -- growing revenue from $20 billion to $40 billion is easier than growing revenue from $500 billion to $1 trillion. Coupang is, however, unlike Amazon, not profitable yet, which may result in share count dilution as Coupang could do a secondary offering to access additional capital. Coupang is also less diversified than Amazon, both geographically and when it comes to different industries. Amazon, with its marketing and cloud computing platforms, is more of a diversified company than Coupang, which is fully reliant on e-commerce.</p>\n<p>I don't think that there is a clear 'better buy' here, as both companies have their pros and cons. Coupang is growing faster and could double or triple its revenue more easily, but Amazon could be called the more dominant, wider-moat, more diversified pick that is also profitable and generates huge cash flows already.</p>\n<p>Looking at valuations, we can't value Coupang based on profits, as those are not existent yet. Taking a look at the two companies' respective market capitalizations relative to the revenues that they generate, we get the following picture:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38b42b77df5f43ac7316fdb87ed98010\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"447\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>We see that both companies trade around 3.5x forward revenue, thus from a valuation perspective, there is no major difference here, except for the fact that AMZN is, unlike CPNG, generating profits with these revenues. One could thus argue that AMZN's revenues are of a higher quality compared to the revenues generated by CPNG.</p>\n<p>Comparing the P/S valuations of AMZN and CPNG trade at compared to some other online retailers, both companies do seem relatively inexpensive:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c9a55a87fb44372d3e5b188f34ff98e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Many other online retailers trade at significantly higher sales multiples, including Shopify(NYSE:SHOP), which seems ultra-expensive at more than 40x forward. In Shopify's defense, one can argue that its more \"techy\" business deserves a higher sales multiple compared to the pure retailers. But even when one compares AMZN and CPNG to more similar companies such as Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD)or MercadoLibre(NASDAQ:MELI), both AMZN and CPNG do seem inexpensive.</p>\n<p><b>Is Coupang Or Amazon Stock The Better Buy?</b></p>\n<p>As shown above, both companies do have their advantages, and which company you ultimately will prefer depends on what things you value the most when choosing an investment. Due to its larger scale, profitability, and strong diversification AMZN seems like the lower-risk choice to me, and its dominant position in its home market and the highly attractive cloud computing market position it well for the future, I believe. Coupang is not unattractive, either, however, and its higher revenue growth rate, coupled with an inexpensive sales multiple, could allow for considerable long-term upside.</p>\n<p>Neither company is risk-less, and due to the online retailers' exposure to consumer spending, both companies could be exposed to an economic downturn -- which I don't see as likely in the foreseeable future, however. On top of that, regulation seems like a possible risk, which may be more pronounced for Amazon due to its much larger size. On the other hand, Amazon is less dependent on a single geographic market, which results in some built-in diversification relative to the more focused Coupang.</p>\n<p>Depending on whether you want a diversified giant that is entrenched in many different markets, or whether you prefer a pure-play on consumers in South Korea, Amazon and/or Coupang could both be solid choices for your portfolio.

Amazon.com, Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN)is the most dominant online retailer in the West, but other markets are primarily served by other online shopping companies. Coupang Inc.(NYSE:CPNG)from South Korea recently IPO'd in the US, and in this article, we will pitch the two against each other. Amazon looks like the more complete company with a wider moat to me, but Coupang is also an interesting play due to its position in an attractive, high-growth market.\nCoupang Stock Price\nCoupang Inc. has IPO'd in the US in March, raising more than $4 billion. Shares are currently trading for $40, which is below the prices of ~$50 that the stock traded at shortly following its IPO:\nData by YCharts\nShares have, however, risen considerably from the lows that the company hit in May, which could be the result of improving sentiment as the company reported very solid Q1 results that showed the company grew faster than expected. The current consensus price target is $44, which indicates that analysts are expecting an upside potential of around 10% over the next year -- solid, but not spectacular. Coupang is backed by major investors including the Gates Foundation and Softbank(OTCPK:SFTBY), which indicates that this is much more than a hyped-up IPO.\nAmazon Stock Price\nAmazon.com, Inc. has been trading for a much longer period than Coupang, and it is a way larger company already. Over the years, shares generated strong returns for investors that held onto shares, the 10-year return is north of 1,600%.\nData by YCharts\nIn 2021, however, shares have so far not risen by a lot, as investors do seem to favor stocks with exposure to economic reopening right now. Energy names, hospitality, etc. have been hot so far this year, whereas the big tech names such as Amazon, which had been strong performers in 2020, have not experienced huge gains year-to-date. The current analyst consensus price target for Amazon's shares is $4240, which suggests upside potential of around 15%, a little more than what analysts are expecting from Coupang right now.\nCoupang's Size Relative To Amazon?\nIt's pretty obvious that Coupang is not bigger than Amazon. It doesn't matter whether you look at market capitalizations, revenue, profits, cash flows, or the employee count, Amazon is a giant and significantly larger than its South Korean peer:\nData by YCharts\nThis isn't too much of a surprise, as Amazon has been founded 27 years ago and has had a lot of time to grow, whereas Coupang has only been around for a little over a decade. Amazon in 2005, when it was 11 years old, was a way smaller company than it is today, and it also was still unprofitable -- as Coupang is today. There is, however, no need to always buy the biggest companies, thus Amazon being larger than Coupang today does not necessarily equate to Amazon being a better investment. Other factors have to be considered for that as well.\nIs Coupang Better Than Amazon?\nWhen considering an investment, things that should be factored in are the growth outlook for a company, the stock's valuation, the company's risk profile and standing relative to competitors, and the overall quality.\nLooking at Coupang and Amazon, both companies are naturally poised to benefit from a long-term megatrend -- shopping shifting from brick-and-mortar to e-commerce. Note that this doesn't mean that brick-and-mortar retailers are all poised to die out, as we believe that higher-quality brick-and-mortar retailers (e.g. Home Depot(NYSE:HD)) and higher-quality brick-and-mortar real estate (e.g. Simon Property Group(NYSE:SPG)) will continue to do well. It is nevertheless relatively clear that, overall, e-commerce will continue to gain market share versus brick-and-mortar, with lower-quality traditional retailers taking the majority of the hit. Some goods are just very easily bought online, e.g. everyday clothes, books, etc. and online retailers should continue to make gains in these areas. On top of that, the overall consumer market continues to grow in both the US and internationally, which benefits online retailers as well.\nAmazon and Coupang also have the ability to boost their growth by expanding into additional markets, either geographically, or by building out new businesses. Amazon has very successfully done so and has become a major retailer not only in the US, but in many additional markets on top of that, and Amazon has also successfully built out a high-growth cloud computing business and is becoming a major player in online advertising.\nCoupang, as a much smaller and younger company, has not had the ability to expand its business as much as Amazon yet. Still, the Korean online retailer has managed to grow its business at a highly attractive pace, and one might even say that Coupang has outperformed Amazon in its home market South Korea. The company's success can be attributed to a smart and customer-focused approach that includesDawn Delivery, a service that allows customers to order before midnight and receiving their order before 7 am the next day. Coupang also has reduced cardboard packaging significantly relative to how other online retailers operate, a move that resonates well with environmentally conscious customers. Through these measures and others, Coupang has been able to deliver rapid revenue growth in the recent past, which includes a massive 75% revenue increase during the most recent quarter. Amazon grew its revenue by 44% in the most recent quarter, although it should be noted that Amazon is growing from a much larger base. The law of large numbers means that Amazon, due to its already very large size, can't grow at the rapid rates Coupang is currently seeing any longer, and the fact that Amazon is, despite its size, still growing at an attractive 40%+ pace is testament to its strong business model.\nCoupang is the higher-growth company today, and one can expect that this will remain the case in the foreseeable future, with the smaller size being a key factor for that -- growing revenue from $20 billion to $40 billion is easier than growing revenue from $500 billion to $1 trillion. Coupang is, however, unlike Amazon, not profitable yet, which may result in share count dilution as Coupang could do a secondary offering to access additional capital. Coupang is also less diversified than Amazon, both geographically and when it comes to different industries. Amazon, with its marketing and cloud computing platforms, is more of a diversified company than Coupang, which is fully reliant on e-commerce.\nI don't think that there is a clear 'better buy' here, as both companies have their pros and cons. Coupang is growing faster and could double or triple its revenue more easily, but Amazon could be called the more dominant, wider-moat, more diversified pick that is also profitable and generates huge cash flows already.\nLooking at valuations, we can't value Coupang based on profits, as those are not existent yet. Taking a look at the two companies' respective market capitalizations relative to the revenues that they generate, we get the following picture:\nData by YCharts\nWe see that both companies trade around 3.5x forward revenue, thus from a valuation perspective, there is no major difference here, except for the fact that AMZN is, unlike CPNG, generating profits with these revenues. One could thus argue that AMZN's revenues are of a higher quality compared to the revenues generated by CPNG.\nComparing the P/S valuations of AMZN and CPNG trade at compared to some other online retailers, both companies do seem relatively inexpensive:\nData by YCharts\nMany other online retailers trade at significantly higher sales multiples, including Shopify(NYSE:SHOP), which seems ultra-expensive at more than 40x forward. In Shopify's defense, one can argue that its more \"techy\" business deserves a higher sales multiple compared to the pure retailers. But even when one compares AMZN and CPNG to more similar companies such as Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD)or MercadoLibre(NASDAQ:MELI), both AMZN and CPNG do seem inexpensive.\nIs Coupang Or Amazon Stock The Better Buy?\nAs shown above, both companies do have their advantages, and which company you ultimately will prefer depends on what things you value the most when choosing an investment. Due to its larger scale, profitability, and strong diversification AMZN seems like the lower-risk choice to me, and its dominant position in its home market and the highly attractive cloud computing market position it well for the future, I believe. Coupang is not unattractive, either, however, and its higher revenue growth rate, coupled with an inexpensive sales multiple, could allow for considerable long-term upside.\nNeither company is risk-less, and due to the online retailers' exposure to consumer spending, both companies could be exposed to an economic downturn -- which I don't see as likely in the foreseeable future, however. On top of that, regulation seems like a possible risk, which may be more pronounced for Amazon due to its much larger size. On the other hand, Amazon is less dependent on a single geographic market, which results in some built-in diversification relative to the more focused Coupang.\nDepending on whether you want a diversified giant that is entrenched in many different markets, or whether you prefer a pure-play on consumers in South Korea, Amazon and/or Coupang could both be solid choices for your portfolio. I personally am long Amazon and see this stock delivering solid gains in the long run, even though shares aren't especially cheap at 67x this year's profits.\nCoupang is definitely an interesting choice as well, however, especially when we consider that its shares do trade at a massive discount relative to other regionally-focused mid-sized online retailers such as MercadoLibre and Pinduoduo.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9,"CPNG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":517,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140419099,"gmtCreate":1625668418511,"gmtModify":1703746107886,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yay AAPL!","listText":"Yay AAPL!","text":"Yay AAPL!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/140419099","repostId":"1101799762","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1101799762","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625665650,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1101799762?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 21:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Shares Gain on Samsung Profit Forecast, Treasury Bond Yield Retreat","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1101799762","media":"Thestreet","summary":"Apple Inc. (AAPL)  shares moved higher Wednesday, and open within touching distance of the stock's J","content":"<p>Apple Inc.&nbsp;(<b>AAPL</b>) &nbsp;shares moved higher Wednesday, and&nbsp;open within touching distance of the stock's January all-time peak, following a pullback in Treasury bond yields and a bullish profit outlook at rival Samsung.</p>\n<p>South Korea-based Samsung, the world's biggest chipmaker, said June quarter profits are likely to rise by 53% from last year to 12.5 trillion won ($11 billion) with analysts betting that an increase in semiconductor shipments, as well as stronger prices for memory chips, will offset a slowdown in handset sales.</p>\n<p>Samsung's flash memory and DRAM chips are important components in Apple's global supply chain.</p>\n<p>Apple was also supported by a $5 price target boost from JPMorgan, which carries an overweight rating on the tech giant, to $170.00 per share.

AMD also competes with Nvidia Corp. in the market for graphics processors used in cards for gaming personal computers.\nSu said the company can continue to grow, even if PC demand falls in 2022. “We expect our competition to be really good and we need to be better than that,” Su said during a conference call after the results.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMD":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2745,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":156481274,"gmtCreate":1625234209998,"gmtModify":1703739040608,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I have these 3 stocks in my portfolio too! :)","listText":"I have these 3 stocks in my portfolio too! :)","text":"I have these 3 stocks in my portfolio too! :)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/156481274","repostId":"2148725958","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":784,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":899942403,"gmtCreate":1628154990502,"gmtModify":1703502221239,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Personally I prefer NET","listText":"Personally I prefer NET","text":"Personally I prefer NET","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/899942403","repostId":"1165947870","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2665,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":148038082,"gmtCreate":1625898151246,"gmtModify":1703750699737,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"High will get higher..Amazon ftw!","listText":"High will get higher..Amazon ftw!","text":"High will get higher..Amazon ftw!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/148038082","repostId":"1162091150","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162091150","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625882272,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1162091150?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-10 09:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Coupang Vs.

Amazon.com, Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN)is the most dominant online retailer in the West, but other markets are primarily served by other online shopping companies. Coupang Inc.(NYSE:CPNG)from South Korea recently IPO'd in the US, and in this article, we will pitch the two against each other. Amazon looks like the more complete company with a wider moat to me, but Coupang is also an interesting play due to its position in an attractive, high-growth market.</p>\n<p><b>Coupang Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Coupang Inc. has IPO'd in the US in March, raising more than&nbsp;$4 billion. Shares are currently trading for $40, which is below the prices of ~$50 that the stock traded at shortly following its IPO:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc6beaaae203d6b0db64793dd67bbbc9\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Shares have, however, risen considerably from the lows that the company hit in May, which could be the result of improving sentiment as the company reported&nbsp;very solid Q1 results&nbsp;that showed the company grew faster than expected. The current consensus price target is $44, which indicates that analysts are expecting an upside potential of around 10% over the next year -- solid, but not spectacular. Coupang is backed by major investors including&nbsp;the Gates Foundation&nbsp;and Softbank(OTCPK:SFTBY), which indicates that this is much more than a hyped-up IPO.</p>\n<p><b>Amazon Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Amazon.com, Inc. has been trading for a much longer period than Coupang, and it is a way larger company already. Over the years, shares generated strong returns for investors that held onto shares, the 10-year return is north of 1,600%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6be201519c9538851784f110ef0f13f3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>In 2021, however, shares have so far not risen by a lot, as investors do seem to favor stocks with exposure to economic reopening right now. Energy names, hospitality, etc. have been hot so far this year, whereas the big tech names such as Amazon, which had been strong performers in 2020, have not experienced huge gains year-to-date. The current analyst consensus price target for Amazon's shares is $4240, which suggests upside potential of around 15%, a little more than what analysts are expecting from Coupang right now.</p>\n<p><b>Coupang's Size Relative To Amazon?</b></p>\n<p>It's pretty obvious that Coupang is not bigger than Amazon. It doesn't matter whether you look at market capitalizations, revenue, profits, cash flows, or the employee count, Amazon is a giant and significantly larger than its South Korean peer:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13e93ec2cee718b6836730e5b0d94cd2\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"577\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>This isn't too much of a surprise, as Amazon has been founded 27 years ago and has had a lot of time to grow, whereas Coupang has only been around for a little over a decade. Amazon in 2005, when it was 11 years old, was a way smaller company than it is today, and it also was still unprofitable -- as Coupang is today. There is, however, no need to always buy the biggest companies, thus Amazon being larger than Coupang today does not necessarily equate to Amazon being a better investment. Other factors have to be considered for that as well.</p>\n<p><b>Is Coupang Better Than Amazon?</b></p>\n<p>When considering an investment, things that should be factored in are the growth outlook for a company, the stock's valuation, the company's risk profile and standing relative to competitors, and the overall quality.</p>\n<p>Looking at Coupang and Amazon, both companies are naturally poised to benefit from a long-term megatrend -- shopping shifting from brick-and-mortar to e-commerce. Note that this doesn't mean that brick-and-mortar retailers are all poised to die out, as we believe that higher-quality brick-and-mortar retailers (e.g. Home Depot(NYSE:HD)) and higher-quality brick-and-mortar real estate (e.g. Simon Property Group(NYSE:SPG)) will continue to do well. It is nevertheless relatively clear that, overall, e-commerce will continue to gain market share versus brick-and-mortar, with lower-quality traditional retailers taking the majority of the hit. Some goods are just very easily bought online, e.g. everyday clothes, books, etc. and online retailers should continue to make gains in these areas. On top of that, the overall consumer market continues to grow in both the US and internationally, which benefits online retailers as well.</p>\n<p>Amazon and Coupang also have the ability to boost their growth by expanding into additional markets, either geographically, or by building out new businesses. Amazon has very successfully done so and has become a major retailer not only in the US, but in many additional markets on top of that, and Amazon has also successfully built out a high-growth cloud computing business and is becoming a major player in online advertising.</p>\n<p>Coupang, as a much smaller and younger company, has not had the ability to expand its business as much as Amazon yet. Still, the Korean online retailer has managed to grow its business at a highly attractive pace, and one might even say that Coupang has outperformed Amazon in its home market South Korea. The company's success can be attributed to a smart and customer-focused approach that includes<i>Dawn Delivery</i>, a service that allows customers to order before midnight and receiving their order before 7 am the next day. Coupang also has reduced cardboard packaging significantly relative to how other online retailers operate, a move that resonates well with environmentally conscious customers. Through these measures and others, Coupang has been able to deliver rapid revenue growth in the recent past, which includes a massive 75% revenue increase during the most recent quarter. Amazon grew its revenue by 44% in the most recent quarter, although it should be noted that Amazon is growing from a much larger base. The law of large numbers means that Amazon, due to its already very large size, can't grow at the rapid rates Coupang is currently seeing any longer, and the fact that Amazon is, despite its size, still growing at an attractive 40%+ pace is testament to its strong business model.</p>\n<p>Coupang is the higher-growth company today, and one can expect that this will remain the case in the foreseeable future, with the smaller size being a key factor for that -- growing revenue from $20 billion to $40 billion is easier than growing revenue from $500 billion to $1 trillion. Coupang is, however, unlike Amazon, not profitable yet, which may result in share count dilution as Coupang could do a secondary offering to access additional capital. Coupang is also less diversified than Amazon, both geographically and when it comes to different industries. Amazon, with its marketing and cloud computing platforms, is more of a diversified company than Coupang, which is fully reliant on e-commerce.</p>\n<p>I don't think that there is a clear 'better buy' here, as both companies have their pros and cons. Coupang is growing faster and could double or triple its revenue more easily, but Amazon could be called the more dominant, wider-moat, more diversified pick that is also profitable and generates huge cash flows already.</p>\n<p>Looking at valuations, we can't value Coupang based on profits, as those are not existent yet. Taking a look at the two companies' respective market capitalizations relative to the revenues that they generate, we get the following picture:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38b42b77df5f43ac7316fdb87ed98010\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"447\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>We see that both companies trade around 3.5x forward revenue, thus from a valuation perspective, there is no major difference here, except for the fact that AMZN is, unlike CPNG, generating profits with these revenues. One could thus argue that AMZN's revenues are of a higher quality compared to the revenues generated by CPNG.</p>\n<p>Comparing the P/S valuations of AMZN and CPNG trade at compared to some other online retailers, both companies do seem relatively inexpensive:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c9a55a87fb44372d3e5b188f34ff98e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Many other online retailers trade at significantly higher sales multiples, including Shopify(NYSE:SHOP), which seems ultra-expensive at more than 40x forward. In Shopify's defense, one can argue that its more \"techy\" business deserves a higher sales multiple compared to the pure retailers. But even when one compares AMZN and CPNG to more similar companies such as Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD)or MercadoLibre(NASDAQ:MELI), both AMZN and CPNG do seem inexpensive.</p>\n<p><b>Is Coupang Or Amazon Stock The Better Buy?</b></p>\n<p>As shown above, both companies do have their advantages, and which company you ultimately will prefer depends on what things you value the most when choosing an investment. Due to its larger scale, profitability, and strong diversification AMZN seems like the lower-risk choice to me, and its dominant position in its home market and the highly attractive cloud computing market position it well for the future, I believe. Coupang is not unattractive, either, however, and its higher revenue growth rate, coupled with an inexpensive sales multiple, could allow for considerable long-term upside.</p>\n<p>Neither company is risk-less, and due to the online retailers' exposure to consumer spending, both companies could be exposed to an economic downturn -- which I don't see as likely in the foreseeable future, however. On top of that, regulation seems like a possible risk, which may be more pronounced for Amazon due to its much larger size. On the other hand, Amazon is less dependent on a single geographic market, which results in some built-in diversification relative to the more focused Coupang.</p>\n<p>Depending on whether you want a diversified giant that is entrenched in many different markets, or whether you prefer a pure-play on consumers in South Korea, Amazon and/or Coupang could both be solid choices for your portfolio. I personally am long Amazon and see this stock&nbsp;delivering solid gains&nbsp;in the long run, even though shares aren't especially cheap at 67x this year's profits.</p>\n<p>Coupang is definitely an interesting choice as well, however, especially when we consider that its shares do trade at a massive discount relative to other regionally-focused mid-sized online retailers such as MercadoLibre and Pinduoduo.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Coupang Vs.

On the other hand, Amazon is less dependent on a single geographic market, which results in some built-in diversification relative to the more focused Coupang.\nDepending on whether you want a diversified giant that is entrenched in many different markets, or whether you prefer a pure-play on consumers in South Korea, Amazon and/or Coupang could both be solid choices for your portfolio. I personally am long Amazon and see this stock delivering solid gains in the long run, even though shares aren't especially cheap at 67x this year's profits.\nCoupang is definitely an interesting choice as well, however, especially when we consider that its shares do trade at a massive discount relative to other regionally-focused mid-sized online retailers such as MercadoLibre and Pinduoduo.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9,"CPNG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":517,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":898223045,"gmtCreate":1628502400287,"gmtModify":1703507171564,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah!","listText":"Yeah!","text":"Yeah!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/898223045","repostId":"2157492988","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2180,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":808375093,"gmtCreate":1627561859212,"gmtModify":1703492392150,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I love $se!&nbsp;","listText":"I love $se!&nbsp;","text":"I love $se!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/808375093","repostId":"2155007909","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2542,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":891105296,"gmtCreate":1628344736515,"gmtModify":1703505267683,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice!","listText":"Nice!","text":"Nice!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/891105296","repostId":"1139912651","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2122,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":806596878,"gmtCreate":1627663966694,"gmtModify":1703494438342,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go Tesla","listText":"Go go Tesla","text":"Go go Tesla","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/806596878","repostId":"2155377091","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2362,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":172073900,"gmtCreate":1626923818000,"gmtModify":1703480682579,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!","listText":"Great!","text":"Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/172073900","repostId":"2153477496","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2153477496","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1626899252,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2153477496?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-22 04:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street ends higher, powered by strong earnings, economic cheer","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2153477496","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, July 21 (Reuters) -

Unfortunately for investors, the transition has been in place for the better part of a decade. Those turnaround efforts include investments in cloud computing and artificial intelligence and the divestiture of legacy businesses. While there are now signs of green shoots, it is yet to be seen as to whether the seeds sown have fallen on rocky ground.</p>\n<p>Although the company has a rapidly growing business in hybrid cloud offerings, and a potential growth engine in quantum computing, it faces intense competition in the former industry and uncertain prospects in the latter. Most of the firm’s other businesses are in the doldrums, so IBM’s growth prospects are opaque.</p>\n<p>What is certain is that as of today, IBM has a reasonable and diminishing debt load and strong free cash flow.</p>\n<p>Management is attempting to address growth concerns in part by focusing on the firm’s cloud offerings, while it spins off its managed infrastructure business. That company will be named Kyndryl. However, the debt which the new entity will shoulder, along with the portion of the current dividend that it will carry, has not been divulged.</p>\n<p><b>Recent Quarterly Results</b></p>\n<p>IBM&nbsp;reported&nbsp;Q2 results last Monday. With non-GAAP EPS of $2.33, the company beat estimates by $0.04.</p>\n<p>Revenue of $18.7 billion was flat when adjusted for currency and divestitures.</p>\n<p>The negative side of the report had Systems revenue declining by 7%. However, this was largely due to the normal IBM Z mainframe cycle, down 13% year over year.</p>\n<p>The global financing division, which represents a low single digit percentage of overall revenues, was down 9%. Global technology services, which represents roughly a third of overall revenue and will largely be spun off as Kyndryl, had flattish growth.</p>\n<p>The positive side of the report had Cloud &amp; Cognitive Software cloud revenue up 29% and Global Business Services cloud revenue up 35%. Total cloud revenue of $27 billion increased by 15% over the last 12 months, while cloud revenue grew 13% in the quarter to $7.0 billion.</p>\n<p>Net cash from operating activities hit $17.7 billion, and adjusted free cash flow totaled $11 billion over the last 12 months.</p>\n<p>Since year-end 2020, the company has reduced debt by $6.4 billion.</p>\n<p>Management guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>Where IBM Stands Tall</b></p>\n<p>IBM is viewed by many as at best a third rate IT company and at worst as a dinosaur, headed towards extinction.</p>\n<p>It is evident that the company’s revenues have declined for years; however, to accurately assess the stock, investors must understand that IBM’s legacy businesses have many strengths.</p>\n<p>For example, IBM is the world’s largest IT services company and the dominant provider of mainframes. Among the Fortune 50 companies, 47 are IBM clients.</p>\n<p>Half of the world’s wireless connections are handled by the firm.</p>\n<p>IBM's mainframe systems process nearly 90% of the globe’s credit card transactions, and 97% of the world's largest banks rely on IBM products and services. Consequently, twenty-nine billion ATM transactions are processed annually using IBM systems.</p>\n<p>Eight out of 10 global retailers rely on IBM products and services while 80% of the travel industry's reservations run through IBM systems. That results in 4 billion flight reservations being processed using the company’s IT services.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ace4f1436fd2697c5ad266b5017e1dd\" tg-width=\"960\" tg-height=\"721\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Forbes</span></p>\n<p>It is evident that IBM has a massive customer base that provides large scale recurring revenues. In many cases, moving to competitors' offerings would mean risking the transfer of sensitive information, a move many are not willing to take.</p>\n<p>However, with the transition to cloud services and open source software, there is an increased adoption by firms of mix and match IT infrastructures. In turn, this is eroding IBM’s competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs.</p>\n<p><b>The Sources Of Potential Growth</b></p>\n<p>Investors are generally aware of IBM's effort to drive growth through its hybrid cloud offerings. However, when questioned at JPMorgan’s recent investor conference, CFO Jim Kavanaugh&nbsp;provided insight&nbsp;into how hybrid cloud drives revenue in some of IBM’s other divisions.</p>\n<blockquote>\n For every $1 (in business) we land on a hybrid cloud platform, we see $3 to $5 of software drag and $6 to $8 of services drag overall.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Of course, Kavanaugh is using drag to refer to increased revenue in software and services associated with adoption of IBM’s hybrid cloud. If Kavanaugh’s claims are accurate, that means every dollar spent on the company’s hybrid cloud platform translates into $9 to $13 in additional revenue from the firm’s software and services offerings.</p>\n<p>Because hybrid cloud uses a mix of on-premises private cloud and public cloud services, it offers clients a degree of data privacy. This is of particular concern for customers in healthcare and financial services. Consequently, I would posit that IBM might have an advantage in competing with other hybrid cloud providers as it has extensive relationships within those industries.</p>\n<p>I reviewed a variety of prognostications regarding projected growth rates for the hybrid cloud market. The most recent study, which also falls in the middle of other predictions, is by Mordor Intelligence. That firm&nbsp;forecasts&nbsp;a CAGR of 18.73% from 2021 through 2026.</p>\n<p>Investors should be aware that the major operators in this space are Cisco (CSCO), Hewlett Packard (HPE), Amazon (AMZN), Citrix Systems (CTXS), and IBM.</p>\n<p>The following chart provides a record of the firm’s total cloud growth over the last six quarters.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5fc85156e70f6caf8ae809f76126a723\" tg-width=\"576\" tg-height=\"336\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Company reports / Chart by Author</span></p>\n<p>Aside from cloud, there is another source of potential growth, although it is unlikely to materialize soon.</p>\n<p>Early in 2019, IBM&nbsp;introduced&nbsp;the Q System One. IBM Q systems are the world's first quantum computer designed for scientific and commercial use.</p>\n<p>Pardon the pun, but quantum computers represent a quantum leap in technology. Prescient And Strategic Intelligence&nbsp;forecasts&nbsp;a CAGR of 56% for the industry through 2030 with the quantum computer market share reaching nearly $65 billion.</p>\n<p>For additional insights regarding quantum computing and IBM’s position within that industry, I point you to&nbsp;my article, “IBM: Why My Eye Is Fixed On Big Blue.”</p>\n<p><b>Understanding Kyndryl</b></p>\n<p>Once&nbsp;Kyndryl&nbsp;is launched, it will have more than 90,000 employees and more than 4,600 customers in 115 countries. With a $60 billion services backlog, the new entity will begin with projected revenues of $19 billion. At twice the size of its closest competitor, the company will be the world’s largest managed infrastructure services provider.</p>\n<p>The split will&nbsp;transform&nbsp;IBM from a company that pulls half of its revenue from services to a firm with its software and solutions businesses generating over half of its revenue on a recurring basis.</p>\n<p>Global Business Services, which currently constitutes 22% of the company’s revenue, will&nbsp;account&nbsp;for over 40% of sales. Here it is important to note that the division grew revenue by 12% year over year in the last quarter.</p>\n<p>IBM will retain Red Hat and its solution provider business, the systems businesses, and its mission-critical public cloud service, and a software portfolio focused on big data, AI, and security.</p>\n<p>Initially, the two companies will each be the largest customer of the other.</p>\n<p>What remains to be known regarding the spinoff is how much debt each company will shoulder, and the share of the dividend that the companies will pay. Krishna stated the two companies will work together to sustain the current payout level.</p>\n<p><b>Has IBM Turned The Corner?</b></p>\n<p>Anyone who follows IBM knows the company has experienced an extended period of poor results. The following chart provides a record of the firm’s quarterly FCF over the last fourteen quarters.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60cc8b82052f97dd449205999ee30711\" tg-width=\"577\" tg-height=\"337\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Data from ycharts / chart by author</span></p>\n<p>While this is not proof positive that the company is back on track, the recent trend is at least encouraging.</p>\n<p>In 2020, IBM generated $10.8 billion in free cash flow. Management guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021. This excludes $3 billion in structural impacts related to the Kyndryl spinoff.</p>\n<p>The CEO&nbsp;recently stated&nbsp;he expects IBM to generate $12 billion to $13 billion in FCF in 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Debt And Dividend</b></p>\n<p>While investors can rightfully complain of a variety of management moves over the years, the firm has maintained a reasonable debt profile while engaging in a number of acquisitions.</p>\n<p>The company has reduced the debt by roughly $18 billion since its peak in mid-2019. IBM maintains an investment level credit rating, and the following chart provides a record of the company’s progress paying down debt of late.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b73e613157c486a5f5e8306546121971\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"720\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: IBM Presentation</span></p>\n<p>IBM has a yield of 4.64%, a payout ratio a bit below 61%, and a 5 year dividend growth rate of 4.26%. As previously noted, following the spinoff of Kyndryl, the two companies will team to provide a payout equivalent to the current dividend.</p>\n<p><b>Is IBM Stock Overvalued?</b></p>\n<p>IBM shares trade for $141.13. The average 12 month price target of 8 analysts is $153.50. The price target of the 3 analysts rating the stock since the last earnings report is $151.33.</p>\n<p>IBM has a P/E of 24.05x and a forward P/E of 17.67x. This compares to its five year averages of 16.42x and 13.25x respectively. It is well below the sector average which is in the low thirties for both metrics.</p>\n<p>The 3 to 5 year PEG provided by Seeking Alpha Premium is 1.16x. Schwab calculates a PEG of 1.49x, and Yahoo does not provide a PEG ratio.</p>\n<p>I believe the current P/E ratios for the stock reflect investors anticipating increased growth for IBM once the spinoff is complete. The PEG ratios show the stock is reasonably valued.</p>\n<p><b>Is IBM Stock A Good Long-Term Investment?</b></p>\n<p>IBM has an entrenched but evolving position among many of the largest companies on the globe. Unfortunately, the cloud, which is seen as the company’s primary avenue for growth, could also lead to a slow deterioration in some of the firm’s legacy businesses.</p>\n<p>That the cloud business has been growing at a rapid pace is manifest: IBM can now boast of over 3,200 clients using the firm’s hybrid cloud platform.

Unfortunately for investors, the transition has been in place for the better part of a decade. Those turnaround efforts include investments in cloud computing and artificial intelligence and the divestiture of legacy businesses. While there are now signs of green shoots, it is yet to be seen as to whether the seeds sown have fallen on rocky ground.\nAlthough the company has a rapidly growing business in hybrid cloud offerings, and a potential growth engine in quantum computing, it faces intense competition in the former industry and uncertain prospects in the latter. Most of the firm’s other businesses are in the doldrums, so IBM’s growth prospects are opaque.\nWhat is certain is that as of today, IBM has a reasonable and diminishing debt load and strong free cash flow.\nManagement is attempting to address growth concerns in part by focusing on the firm’s cloud offerings, while it spins off its managed infrastructure business. That company will be named Kyndryl. However, the debt which the new entity will shoulder, along with the portion of the current dividend that it will carry, has not been divulged.\nRecent Quarterly Results\nIBM reported Q2 results last Monday. With non-GAAP EPS of $2.33, the company beat estimates by $0.04.\nRevenue of $18.7 billion was flat when adjusted for currency and divestitures.\nThe negative side of the report had Systems revenue declining by 7%. However, this was largely due to the normal IBM Z mainframe cycle, down 13% year over year.\nThe global financing division, which represents a low single digit percentage of overall revenues, was down 9%. Global technology services, which represents roughly a third of overall revenue and will largely be spun off as Kyndryl, had flattish growth.\nThe positive side of the report had Cloud & Cognitive Software cloud revenue up 29% and Global Business Services cloud revenue up 35%. Total cloud revenue of $27 billion increased by 15% over the last 12 months, while cloud revenue grew 13% in the quarter to $7.0 billion.\nNet cash from operating activities hit $17.7 billion, and adjusted free cash flow totaled $11 billion over the last 12 months.\nSince year-end 2020, the company has reduced debt by $6.4 billion.\nManagement guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021.\nWhere IBM Stands Tall\nIBM is viewed by many as at best a third rate IT company and at worst as a dinosaur, headed towards extinction.\nIt is evident that the company’s revenues have declined for years; however, to accurately assess the stock, investors must understand that IBM’s legacy businesses have many strengths.\nFor example, IBM is the world’s largest IT services company and the dominant provider of mainframes. Among the Fortune 50 companies, 47 are IBM clients.\nHalf of the world’s wireless connections are handled by the firm.\nIBM's mainframe systems process nearly 90% of the globe’s credit card transactions, and 97% of the world's largest banks rely on IBM products and services. Consequently, twenty-nine billion ATM transactions are processed annually using IBM systems.\nEight out of 10 global retailers rely on IBM products and services while 80% of the travel industry's reservations run through IBM systems. That results in 4 billion flight reservations being processed using the company’s IT services.\nSource: Forbes\nIt is evident that IBM has a massive customer base that provides large scale recurring revenues. In many cases, moving to competitors' offerings would mean risking the transfer of sensitive information, a move many are not willing to take.\nHowever, with the transition to cloud services and open source software, there is an increased adoption by firms of mix and match IT infrastructures. In turn, this is eroding IBM’s competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs.\nThe Sources Of Potential Growth\nInvestors are generally aware of IBM's effort to drive growth through its hybrid cloud offerings. However, when questioned at JPMorgan’s recent investor conference, CFO Jim Kavanaugh provided insight into how hybrid cloud drives revenue in some of IBM’s other divisions.\n\n For every $1 (in business) we land on a hybrid cloud platform, we see $3 to $5 of software drag and $6 to $8 of services drag overall.\n\nOf course, Kavanaugh is using drag to refer to increased revenue in software and services associated with adoption of IBM’s hybrid cloud. If Kavanaugh’s claims are accurate, that means every dollar spent on the company’s hybrid cloud platform translates into $9 to $13 in additional revenue from the firm’s software and services offerings.\nBecause hybrid cloud uses a mix of on-premises private cloud and public cloud services, it offers clients a degree of data privacy. This is of particular concern for customers in healthcare and financial services. Consequently, I would posit that IBM might have an advantage in competing with other hybrid cloud providers as it has extensive relationships within those industries.\nI reviewed a variety of prognostications regarding projected growth rates for the hybrid cloud market. The most recent study, which also falls in the middle of other predictions, is by Mordor Intelligence. That firm forecasts a CAGR of 18.73% from 2021 through 2026.\nInvestors should be aware that the major operators in this space are Cisco (CSCO), Hewlett Packard (HPE), Amazon (AMZN), Citrix Systems (CTXS), and IBM.\nThe following chart provides a record of the firm’s total cloud growth over the last six quarters.\nSource: Company reports / Chart by Author\nAside from cloud, there is another source of potential growth, although it is unlikely to materialize soon.\nEarly in 2019, IBM introduced the Q System One. IBM Q systems are the world's first quantum computer designed for scientific and commercial use.\nPardon the pun, but quantum computers represent a quantum leap in technology. Prescient And Strategic Intelligence forecasts a CAGR of 56% for the industry through 2030 with the quantum computer market share reaching nearly $65 billion.\nFor additional insights regarding quantum computing and IBM’s position within that industry, I point you to my article, “IBM: Why My Eye Is Fixed On Big Blue.”\nUnderstanding Kyndryl\nOnce Kyndryl is launched, it will have more than 90,000 employees and more than 4,600 customers in 115 countries. With a $60 billion services backlog, the new entity will begin with projected revenues of $19 billion. At twice the size of its closest competitor, the company will be the world’s largest managed infrastructure services provider.\nThe split will transform IBM from a company that pulls half of its revenue from services to a firm with its software and solutions businesses generating over half of its revenue on a recurring basis.\nGlobal Business Services, which currently constitutes 22% of the company’s revenue, will account for over 40% of sales. Here it is important to note that the division grew revenue by 12% year over year in the last quarter.\nIBM will retain Red Hat and its solution provider business, the systems businesses, and its mission-critical public cloud service, and a software portfolio focused on big data, AI, and security.\nInitially, the two companies will each be the largest customer of the other.\nWhat remains to be known regarding the spinoff is how much debt each company will shoulder, and the share of the dividend that the companies will pay. Krishna stated the two companies will work together to sustain the current payout level.\nHas IBM Turned The Corner?\nAnyone who follows IBM knows the company has experienced an extended period of poor results. The following chart provides a record of the firm’s quarterly FCF over the last fourteen quarters.\nSource: Data from ycharts / chart by author\nWhile this is not proof positive that the company is back on track, the recent trend is at least encouraging.\nIn 2020, IBM generated $10.8 billion in free cash flow. Management guides for adjusted free cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion in 2021. This excludes $3 billion in structural impacts related to the Kyndryl spinoff.\nThe CEO recently stated he expects IBM to generate $12 billion to $13 billion in FCF in 2022.\nDebt And Dividend\nWhile investors can rightfully complain of a variety of management moves over the years, the firm has maintained a reasonable debt profile while engaging in a number of acquisitions.\nThe company has reduced the debt by roughly $18 billion since its peak in mid-2019. IBM maintains an investment level credit rating, and the following chart provides a record of the company’s progress paying down debt of late.\nSource: IBM Presentation\nIBM has a yield of 4.64%, a payout ratio a bit below 61%, and a 5 year dividend growth rate of 4.26%. As previously noted, following the spinoff of Kyndryl, the two companies will team to provide a payout equivalent to the current dividend.\nIs IBM Stock Overvalued?\nIBM shares trade for $141.13. The average 12 month price target of 8 analysts is $153.50. The price target of the 3 analysts rating the stock since the last earnings report is $151.33.\nIBM has a P/E of 24.05x and a forward P/E of 17.67x. This compares to its five year averages of 16.42x and 13.25x respectively. It is well below the sector average which is in the low thirties for both metrics.\nThe 3 to 5 year PEG provided by Seeking Alpha Premium is 1.16x. Schwab calculates a PEG of 1.49x, and Yahoo does not provide a PEG ratio.\nI believe the current P/E ratios for the stock reflect investors anticipating increased growth for IBM once the spinoff is complete. The PEG ratios show the stock is reasonably valued.\nIs IBM Stock A Good Long-Term Investment?\nIBM has an entrenched but evolving position among many of the largest companies on the globe. Unfortunately, the cloud, which is seen as the company’s primary avenue for growth, could also lead to a slow deterioration in some of the firm’s legacy businesses.\nThat the cloud business has been growing at a rapid pace is manifest: IBM can now boast of over 3,200 clients using the firm’s hybrid cloud platform. That is nearly four times the number just prior to the Red Hat acquisition.\nIf management’s claims are accurate, the hybrid cloud platform will create robust growth in the software and services division’s revenues. When combined with the spinoff of Kyndryl’s slow growing managed infrastructure services business, it is reasonable to believe IBM will witness increased growth.\nIBM has a solid balance sheet, a robust yield, and when viewed using PEG ratios as a basis for valuing the stock, the shares are trading at a bit of a discount.\nAll considered, I rate IBM as a BUY.\nI think the worst case short to mid-term scenario is that the company experiences slow growth while investors collect a rather robust dividend.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"IBM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":488,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":174075129,"gmtCreate":1627054940561,"gmtModify":1703483541196,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yay!","listText":"Yay!","text":"Yay!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/174075129","repostId":"2153984780","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":691,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":154758046,"gmtCreate":1625547778085,"gmtModify":1703743480543,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Am longing $crwd too!&nbsp;","listText":"Am longing $crwd too!&nbsp;","text":"Am longing $crwd too!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/154758046","repostId":"1191866145","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1018,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":802353390,"gmtCreate":1627722110510,"gmtModify":1703495223601,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/802353390","repostId":"1173075225","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173075225","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1627704977,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173075225?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-31 12:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Best Dividend Stocks to Buy in August","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173075225","media":"US News","summary":"In late July, the Dow Jones Industrial Average slid more than 700 points in a single session to log its worst single-day decline since October.

It's not a shopping mall or residential real estate firm, however, and focuses on \"out of home leisure and recreation experiences,\" including movie theaters, beach resorts and ski slopes across more than 40 states. Obviously, with the overall easing of coronavirus restrictions, EPR has been seeing a huge recovery to its business compared with its performance last summer in the throes of lockdowns. Shares are up about 60% year to date, and EPR just resumed a 25 cent quarterly dividend in July. That bodes well both for future performance and future dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Navient Corp.

The financial firm's quarterly dividend of 16 cents, however, went uninterrupted throughout the upheaval, and now NAVI stock is facing an uptrend considering that both the economic and political outlook have improved. Shares are up a huge 150% or so in the last 12 months, and it still offers a dividend that's more than twice the S&amp;P 500, even after that run.</p>\n<p><b>Pfizer Inc.

Given the risk posed by variants of the disease, along with a continued push to vaccinate worldwide now that many developed markets have gotten their shots, investors could continue to see a decent tailwind for PFE in the near term. On top of that, don't forget this $240 billion drugmaker remains <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the most dominanthealth care companieson the planet, and one of the most reliable dividend stocks out there with an amazing streak of 330 consecutive quarterly dividends paid to shareholders.</p>\n<p><b>Vedanta Ltd.

It also takes the energy sources it extracts and operates power generation facilities, operating an arm that is a major electric utility in the nation. Given that this stock is in an emerging market and not as large as other materials stocks at only about $14 billion, there's a bit more risk here than in other similar stocks. But with a generous dividend and rising revenues, thanks to the global economic recovery, this stock has been a top performer lately with year-to-date returns of more than 60% in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>Vistra Corp.

Shares have since rebounded, and the majorstock market indexesall continue to flirt with new all-time highs, but it's worth noting that the big gains of the last year or two seem much harder to come by. Specifically, the Dow Jones is more or less flat from where it was at the start of May.\nThat hints that gains could be tougher to score in the months ahead -- and could be a sign that income-oriented dividend stocks may provide not just stability but also a nice flow of cash to ensure your nest egg keeps growing.\nIf you're interested individend stocksright now, here are five that look particularly strong at the start of August:\n\nEPR Properties (ticker:EPR)\nNavient Corp. (NAVI)\nPfizer Inc. (PFE)\nVedanta Ltd. (VEDL)\nVistra Corp. (VST)\n\n[Sign up for stock news with our Invested newsletter.]\nEPR Properties (EPR)\nDividend yield:5.7%\nEPR is a leading \"net lease\" real estate investment trust, meaning it demands clients pay for ancillary expenses like maintenance or insurance on the properties while it just cashes the rent check. It's not a shopping mall or residential real estate firm, however, and focuses on \"out of home leisure and recreation experiences,\" including movie theaters, beach resorts and ski slopes across more than 40 states. Obviously, with the overall easing of coronavirus restrictions, EPR has been seeing a huge recovery to its business compared with its performance last summer in the throes of lockdowns. Shares are up about 60% year to date, and EPR just resumed a 25 cent quarterly dividend in July. That bodes well both for future performance and future dividends.\nNavient Corp. (NAVI)\nDividend yield:3.2%\nStudent loan provider Navient was not exactly a popular stock a year or two ago amid political discussions ofstudent debtforgiveness, which were followed closely by fears of an economic downturn caused by coronavirus disruptions that would upset the payments of young graduates. The financial firm's quarterly dividend of 16 cents, however, went uninterrupted throughout the upheaval, and now NAVI stock is facing an uptrend considering that both the economic and political outlook have improved. Shares are up a huge 150% or so in the last 12 months, and it still offers a dividend that's more than twice the S&P 500, even after that run.\nPfizer Inc. (PFE)\nDividend yield:3.6%\nBig Pharma mainstay Pfizer has outperformed the broader stock market slightly in 2021, continuing to ride high on its high-profile success developing an effective coronavirus vaccine. Given the risk posed by variants of the disease, along with a continued push to vaccinate worldwide now that many developed markets have gotten their shots, investors could continue to see a decent tailwind for PFE in the near term. On top of that, don't forget this $240 billion drugmaker remains one of the most dominanthealth care companieson the planet, and one of the most reliable dividend stocks out there with an amazing streak of 330 consecutive quarterly dividends paid to shareholders.\nVedanta Ltd. (VEDL)\nDividend yield:5.1%\nVedanta is an India-based industrial conglomerate that operates a diversified natural resources business spanning oil and gas production as well as coal,silverandcoppermining. It also takes the energy sources it extracts and operates power generation facilities, operating an arm that is a major electric utility in the nation. Given that this stock is in an emerging market and not as large as other materials stocks at only about $14 billion, there's a bit more risk here than in other similar stocks. But with a generous dividend and rising revenues, thanks to the global economic recovery, this stock has been a top performer lately with year-to-date returns of more than 60% in 2021.\nVistra Corp. (VST)\nDividend yield:3.1%\nA Texas-based utility company, Vistra is an electricity provider -- one of the most stable businesses on Wall Street. But VST also has modest growth potential as it operates in six of the seven wholesale markets where utilities compete for customers, thanks to deregulation. Right now, it has nearly 5 million residential, commercial and industrial connections in about 20 states. Additionally, it announced construction of a 1,600 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system in California, which has captivated investors. Shares have underperformed year to date in 2021, but are up about 30% from their spring lows -- and continue to offer a generous dividend on top of this short-term momentum.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"PFE":0.9,"NAVI":0.9,"VEDL":0.9,"BOTB.UK":0.9,"EPR":0.9,"VST":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2132,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":800003559,"gmtCreate":1627264570471,"gmtModify":1703486240822,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go go!","listText":"Go go!","text":"Go go!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/800003559","repostId":"1100772026","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2039,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":172073125,"gmtCreate":1626923837167,"gmtModify":1703480682902,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/172073125","repostId":"1170597291","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170597291","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626923172,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170597291?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-22 11:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Planning 5G-Enabled Budget iPhone: Report","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170597291","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Apple, Inc. is gearing up to launch the next iteration of its iPhone — theiPhone 13— in September, a","content":"<div>\n<p>Apple, Inc. is gearing up to launch the next iteration of its iPhone — theiPhone 13— in September, and analysts are optimistic concerning continued momentum for Cupertino's flagship product.\nIt now ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.benzinga.com/tech/21/07/22085978/apple-planning-5g-enabled-budget-iphone-report\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The iPhone SE released in 2020 was priced at $399.\nThe SE version makes iPhones affordable to the low end of the market, benefiting unit sales.\nApple plans to transition fully to 5G phones in 2021, Nikkei said.\nMini On Its Way Out:Additionally, Apple plans to phase out its iPhone Mini model in 2022 given its lack of appeal among users. Instead, the company is likely to release a relatively cost-effective iPhone Pro Max version, according to the report.\nThis will keep the iPhone models released in the second half of 2022 at four — two 6.1-inch handsets and two 6.7-inch ones, the report said, citing sources.\nAt last check, Apple shares were down 0.53% at $145.37.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9,"QCOM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":644,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":173818894,"gmtCreate":1626652588218,"gmtModify":1703762619627,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I’ll just hodl","listText":"I’ll just hodl","text":"I’ll just hodl","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/173818894","repostId":"1123755908","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":687,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140419099,"gmtCreate":1625668418511,"gmtModify":1703746107886,"author":{"id":"3562879402794963","authorId":"3562879402794963","name":"mich89","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/986536261ba69d3973d078ff6a5abe13","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3562879402794963","idStr":"3562879402794963"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yay AAPL!","listText":"Yay AAPL!","text":"Yay AAPL!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/140419099","repostId":"1101799762","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1101799762","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625665650,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1101799762?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 21:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Shares Gain on Samsung Profit Forecast, Treasury Bond Yield Retreat","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1101799762","media":"Thestreet","summary":"Apple Inc. (AAPL)  shares moved higher Wednesday, and open within touching distance of the stock's J","content":"<p>Apple Inc.&nbsp;(<b>AAPL</b>) &nbsp;shares moved higher Wednesday, and&nbsp;open within touching distance of the stock's January all-time peak, following a pullback in Treasury bond yields and a bullish profit outlook at rival Samsung.</p>\n<p>South Korea-based Samsung, the world's biggest chipmaker, said June quarter profits are likely to rise by 53% from last year to 12.5 trillion won ($11 billion) with analysts betting that an increase in semiconductor shipments, as well as stronger prices for memory chips, will offset a slowdown in handset sales.</p>\n<p>Samsung's flash memory and DRAM chips are important components in Apple's global supply chain.</p>\n<p>Apple was also supported by a $5 price target boost from JPMorgan, which carries an overweight rating on the tech giant, to $170.00 per share.

Analyst Samik Chatterjee said that while Apple shares have underperformed \"significantly\" this year, resilient iPhone 12 volumes, as well as historical gains linked to September launch events, are providing upside support for the shares heading into the summer months.\n\"The upside pressure on volumes for the iPhone 12 series, historical outperformance in the July-September time period heading into launch event, and further catalysts in relation to outperformance for iPhone 13 volumes relative to lowered investor expectations implies a very attractive set up for the shares in the second half of the year,\" Chatterjee said.\n\"As we look forward to the next three to six months, we see the shares set up for a strong outperformance, similar to the trends in previous years, but likely with stronger momentum on two key reasons,\" Chatterjee said, noting \"upside pressure to the current generation iPhone 12 product cycle, led by recent momentum and share gains in key geographies, including China\" and \"low expectations going into the iPhone 13 product cycle, which will likely drive an outperformance to expectations.\"\nApple shares were marked 0.5% higher in pre-market trading Wednesday to indicate an opening bell price of $142.73 each, supported in part by a pullback in Treasury bond yields to 1.343%, the lowest since early February. Apple hit a post-split high of $145.09 each on January 25.\nApple is set to report its third quarter earnings on July 27, with CFO Luca Maestri cautioning investors in late April that the group is likely to experience a \"steeper than usual\" sequential revenue decline thanks in part to supply constraints linked to the global semiconductor shortage following Street-blasting sales of nearly $90 billion for the three months ending in March.\nApple said iPhone revenues rose 65% from last year to $47.94 billion, well ahead of the $41.7 billion Street forecast, thanks to what CEO Tim Cook called \"strong demand for the iPhone 12 family\".\nGreater China revenues, Apple said, rose 88% from last year's pandemic trough to $17.728 billion, while overall services revenues rose 26.6% to $16.9 billion.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":403,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
