US REIT (SGX: BTOU), or MUST, is caught in a bind.Back in July, the US office REIT reported that the valuation of its property portfolio had declined by 14.6% to US$1.63 billion.As a result of this fall, aggregate leverage shot up to around 57% while a financial covenant with its lenders was breached.MUST also ended up halting distributions when it reported its first half of 2023 (1H 2023) earnings back in August 2023 as it worked with its lenders to address this breach.Just last week, the manager of MUST released a comprehensive recapitalisation plan to revitalise the REIT and help it get back on its feet.Should unitholders support or reject this plan?Details of the planThe recapitalisation plan involves two key components – revitalise and reinforce.For the revitalise portion, a total of US$285 million will be raised to pay off each lender.MUST will divest its Park Place property to its sponsor, Manulife Financial, at US$98.7 million, which is the higher of the two independent valuations sought.At the same time, the REIT will obtain a six-year unsecured sponsor-lender loan of US$137 million at an interest rate of 7.25%.Finally, MUST needs to tap on US$50 million of its cash balance to fulfil this portion of the deal.Meanwhile, the “reinforce” section seeks to reposition MUST’s portfolio and strengthen its balance sheet.The office REIT will sell assets to raise US$328.7 million with properties prioritised according to their total return potential and capital expenditure (capex) requirements.Source: Manulife US REIT Presentation SlidesThe slide above shows how MUST’s portfolio will be divided into three tranches to determine which assets to sell off first.The priority is to divest the Tranche 1 assets that make up 28.4% of the portfolio as they have high occupancy risk with lower total return potential.As such, half-yearly distributions will remain suspended until the end of 2025 but may resume if certain conditions are met.With the “reinforce” segment, the manager intends to repay maturing debt, fund future capex, and optimise the portfolio to enable the REIT to grow again.Other options were consideredThis plan was proposed after the manager considered numerous options for the REIT.The problem is that the US office sector continues to face headwinds with post-COVID remote work patterns negatively impacting leasing demand.The NCREIF Office Index has declined by 21.1% year-to-date, showcasing the challenging conditions within the sector.Coupled with the high interest rate environment and MUST’s high aggregate leverage, this means that debt financing options are severely limited.The REIT had considered the gradual disposal of its properties to raise cash but with buyers having limited access to credit, this was not a good option.An equity fundraising exercise was also out of the question as MUST’s unit price had declined to an all-time low with banks unable to underwrite any preferential offer as the sponsor’s unitholding is mandated to be capped at 9.8%.Mergers also come with heightened risk in the current environment while new loans and credit facilities were not available.In light of the above, the manager of MUST has come up with a recapitalisation plan which it believes will help to cure the breach and put the REIT back on track for growth.Benefits of the transactionAssuming the recapitalisation plan is approved, MUST’s lenders will initiate a waiver of past and existing breaches and allow a temporary relaxation of financial covenants till 31 December 2025.The lenders need to do so as MUST’s unencumbered gearing ratio will touch 80% after the recapitalisation plan while its interest coverage ratio will be reduced from the current two times to just 1.5 times.MUST has around 19 months to effect the asset dispositions and the lenders have agreed to extend the loan maturities of all facilities by one year.Assuming the recapitalisation plan goes through, the sponsor-lender loan is taken up and the tranche 1 assets are disposed of, MUST’s aggregate leverage is projected to fall to 49.4%.This will bring the gearing level a whisker under the maximum 50% limit as mandated by Singapore’s central bank but also allow the REIT to have breathing room and a longer runway to withstand the US office sector headwinds.Get Smart: An all-or-nothing decisionAn extraordinary meeting (EGM) will be convened by MUST on 14 December to vote on three resolutions.These three resolutions involve the “revitalise” transactions mentioned above along with the approval for the disposition mandate to accelerate the sale of the tranche 1 properties to raise more cash.The manager has communicated that these three resolutions are inter-conditional, meaning that if any of them are not approved, then all three cannot go ahead.Given the lack of alternatives for unitholders as mentioned above, it seems voting for these resolutions would be in their best interests.Should the US office sector conditions improve or the REIT enjoys a favourable outcome for its dispositions, there is a possibility that distributions may be resumed before the end of 2025.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BTOU.SI":1.1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3004,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":239789418504312,"gmtCreate":1699579097150,"gmtModify":1699579101733,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great

Surgical Inc beat estimates for first-quarter sales on Tuesday as the surgical robot maker recorded a rise in total procedure volumes.Shares of the Sunnyvale, California-based company rose 9.18% to $294, after the bell.The company reported quarterly sales of $1.70 billion, beating analysts' estimates of $1.60 billion, according to IBES Refinitiv data.As pandemic-induced staffing shortages ease, the healthcare industry sees a recovery in medical procedures that could help boost the demand of surgical devices in the United States.The medical device maker posted a 26% growth in procedure volumes of its surgical robot da Vinci in the first quarter through March from a year earlier.Intuitive has been a market leader, while larger rival Medtronic Plc attempts to compete in the space, with its robotic surgical system Hugo, which is currently in clinical trials in the U.S.\"For many high-volume surgeons especially within the U.S. and Europe, the switching costs will be too immense initially as Intuitive continues to enhance its ecosystem\", BTIG analyst Ryan Zimmerman told Reuters ahead of earnings.Investors are eyeing the launch of company's new multiport surgical robot, which could be a potential near-term catalyst, analysts said after Intuitive in January told its next generation system is not expected to be launched this year.\"When they come out with the system, directionally I think it's going to have a big digital footprint - it could be a new form factor for something they already have and then it will definitely drive total addressable market expansion,\" RBC Capital Markets analyst Shagun Singh told Reuters.Excluding items, Intuitive earned $1.23 per share in the first quarter, above analysts' average estimate of $1.20 per share, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2919,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944374216,"gmtCreate":1681730467635,"gmtModify":1681730471406,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Seems

Hathaway Inc.’s Warren Buffett has been in touch with senior officials in President Joe Biden’s administration in recent days as the regional banking crisis unfolds.The outreach between Buffett and the administration was described by people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing private information. It wasn’t immediately clear what role, if any, the billionaire investor may play to contain the crisis after the failures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and Silvergate Capital Corp.Buffett has a long history of stepping in to aid banks in crisis, leveraging his cult investing status and financial heft to restore confidence in ailing firms. Bank of America Corp. won a capital injection from Buffett in 2011 after its stock plunged amid losses tied to subprime mortgages. Buffett also tossed a $5 billion lifeline to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in 2008 to shore up the bank following Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.’s collapse.Representatives for Berkshire Hathaway and the White House didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.

UBS has also insisted on a material adverse change that voids the deal if its credit default spreads jump by 100 basis points or more, they added.The situation is fast-moving and there is no guarantee that terms will remain the same or that a deal will be reached, all the people stressed.Some of the people said that the current terms were unfair for Credit Suisse and its shareholders. Others criticised the plans to void normal corporate governance rules by preventing a UBS shareholder vote.There has been limited contact between the two lenders and the terms have been heavily influenced by the Swiss National Bank and regulator Finma, the people said. The US Federal Reserve has given its assent to the deal progressing, they added.While the current terms value Credit Suisse’s equity at up to $1bn, the figure does not reflect additional provisions the Swiss National Bank will make to ensure the deal is done.Both sides have been locked in discussions with regulators since Wednesday, when Credit Suisse asked the SNB to provide it with an emergency SFr50bn ($54bn) credit line.When this backstop failed to arrest a fall in its share price and stop panicked clients from withdrawing their money, the central bank stepped in to force a merger after becoming concerned about the viability of the country’s second-largest lender.Deposit outflows from Credit Suisse topped SFr10bn a day late last week, the Financial Times has reported. Customers withdrew SFr111bn from the group in the final three months of last year.On Saturday night, the Swiss cabinet assembled in the finance ministry in Bern for a series of presentations from government officials, the SNB, market regulator Finma, and representatives of the banking sector.The government is preparing emergency measures to fast-track the takeover and plans to introduce legislation that will bypass the normal six-week consultation period required for UBS shareholders so the deal can be sealed immediately, the people said.The framework of the deal has been designed by Swiss regulators to provide maximum stability to the country’s banking system, people briefed about the matter said. Swiss authorities have already secured preapproval from relevant regulators in the US and Europe which are expected to issue co-ordinated statements today.UBS will dramatically shrink Credit Suisse’s investment bank, so that the combined entity will make up no more than a third of the merged group, two of the people said.However, the current term sheet for the deal does not specify what will happen to Credit Suisse’s individual business divisions, and simply outlines a 100 per cent takeover of the group.Negotiators have given Credit Suisse the code name Cedar and UBS is referred to as Ulmus, according to people briefed on the matter.UBS is seeking concessions and protections from the government, particularly from any pending legal cases and regulatory investigations into Credit Suisse that could result in fines or losses, the FT has reported. However, it is unlikely it will get indemnity from any losses on assets, one of the people involved said.UBS also wants to be allowed to phase in any extra demands it would face under global rules on capital that govern the world’s biggest banks.The SNB, UBS, Credit Suisse and Finma declined to comment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CS":0.9,"UBS":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":968,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940659882,"gmtCreate":1677890822046,"gmtModify":1677890826079,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Maybe not now","listText":"Maybe not now","text":"Maybe not now","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940659882","repostId":"2316519902","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2316519902","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1677886210,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2316519902?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-04 07:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Meta's Dropping Prices for Its VR Headsets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2316519902","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"Meta's (META) VR headsets are getting a major, but perhaps unavoidable, price cut, largely because c","content":"<div>\n<p>Meta's (META) VR headsets are getting a major, but perhaps unavoidable, price cut, largely because consumers are, well, just not buying as many as expect.The company today announced that it's slashing...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/why-metas-dropping-prices-for-its-vr-headsets-204637368.html\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"yahoofinance_sg","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

For the Meta Quest Pro, which was touted at its launch as being geared towards businesses, that's a roughly 33% drop – and a noteworthy fall from the fanfare with which it was launched in conjunction with support from Microsoft (MSFT) and Accenture (ACN).Waning consumer interest isn't a Meta-specific problem – the VR market, along with the games industry at-large, saw its 2022 sales drop 2% year-over-year to $1.1 billion, according to research from NDP. But the company's even struggled to keep even new headset owners interested in the product. (Meta VP of VR Mark Rabkin recently broke the news to employees, according to a Feb. 28 report by The Verge.)“Sadly, the newer cohorts that are coming in, the people who bought it this last Christmas, they’re just not as into it, as the ones who bought it early,” he said, per The Verge.Said IDC Research Director Ramon Llamas: \"The market for second-hand and refurbished devices allows consumers to swoop in at a lower price and, if we count the specter of inflation, consumers are smart and they'll find a way to get what they want for less\"He added: \"This is part of a macro move, especially because I think it's too early for me to say that they're cleaning out Quest 2 inventory, since the Quest 3 doesn't show up until the end of the year.\"High stakesMeta has sunk a lot into its pursuit of VR. Reality Labs, the company's metaverse operation, has lost billions in the last year alone—it lost a staggering $13.7 billion on Reality Labs in 2022, up from the roughly $10.2 billion it lost on the division in 2021, according to its Meta's latest earnings report.The losses aside, what Meta's spent on VR has given it \"a very tight grip on the VR device market,\" as they from holding 45% to 82% of VR market share in the course of this past year, according to Llamas. It's still a nascent market though, and if they want to retain their lead, the play for them right now, he says, is more heads in sets.\"If I'm Mark Zuckerberg, if I want people to come into the Meta family, the easiest way to do that is going to be lowering prices,\" Llamas told Yahoo Finance. \"The more people on board, the better.\"","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"META":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1217,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954571936,"gmtCreate":1676509487425,"gmtModify":1676509505423,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It is just a name to them...","listText":"It is just a name to them...","text":"It is just a name to them...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954571936","repostId":"1129081945","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":966,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952322040,"gmtCreate":1674477689280,"gmtModify":1676538942033,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good for visa ans mastercard","listText":"Good for visa ans mastercard","text":"Good for visa ans mastercard","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9952322040","repostId":"1137223587","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137223587","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1674472035,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137223587?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-23 19:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Banks Plan Payment Wallet to Compete With PayPal, Apple Pay","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1137223587","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Big banks are teaming up to launch a digital wallet that people can use to shop online.Wells Fargo, ","content":"<div>\n<p>Big banks are teaming up to launch a digital wallet that people can use to shop online.Wells Fargo, Bank of America Corp.,, JPMorgan Chase, and four other banks are working on a new product that will ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.wsj.com/articles/banks-plan-payment-wallet-to-compete-with-paypal-apple-pay-11674433472?mod=hp_lead_pos2\">Source Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"wsj_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The wallet, which doesn’t have a name yet, will operate separately from Zelle, EWS said.EWS, whose owners also include Capital One Financial Corp.,, PNC Financial Services GroupInc.,, U.S. Bancorp, and Truist Financial Corp., plans to begin rolling out the new offering in the second half of the year.One goal of the new service is to compete with third-party wallet operators such as PayPal Holdings Inc., and Apple Inc.’s Apple Pay, according to people familiar with the matter. Banks are worried about losing control of their customer relationships.Apple, in particular, poses a big threat. The tech giant has moved further into financial services and is working on a savings account with Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and a buy now, pay later offering.EWS’s owner banks are also trying to cut down on fraud. Customers using their wallet wouldn’t have to type in their card numbers, which can raise the risk of fraud and rejected payments that result in lost sales.The banks expect to enable 150 million debit and credit cards for use within the wallet when it rolls out. U.S. consumers who are up-to-date on payments, have used their card online in recent years and have provided an email address and phone number will be eligible.The banks are still ironing out the details of the customer experience. It likely will involve consumers’ typing their email on a merchant’s checkout page. The merchant would ping EWS, which would use its back-end connections to banks to identify which of the consumer’s cards can be loaded onto the wallet. Consumers would then choose which card to use or could opt out.EWS’s owners last year debated a plan to allowshoppers to use Zelle for online purchases, The Wall Street Journal previously reported. Concerns around fraud and the treatment of disputed transactions, which have caught the eye of lawmakers, contributed to the decision to not move forward.The wallet is being designed to roll out with cards since that is how U.S. consumers are used to shopping. The banks figured it would increase the odds that more people would use the wallet.Should a sizable number of merchants enable the wallet and consumers adopt it, EWS banks could explore adding other payment options, EWS said. That could include enabling payments directly from bank accounts.The wallet will be launched with Visa Inc. and Mastercard Inc. debit and credit cards, EWS said. EWS reached out about the initiative to other card networks, including Discover Financial Services to gauge their interest in enabling their cards to be loaded onto the wallet.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9,"AFRM":0.9,"PYPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":960,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9953316987,"gmtCreate":1673154755549,"gmtModify":1676538793210,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time for roller coaster again..are you ready for the ride?[Cool]&nbsp;[Cool]&nbsp;","listText":"Time for roller coaster again..are you ready for the ride?[Cool]&nbsp;[Cool]&nbsp;","text":"Time for roller coaster again..are you ready for the ride?[Cool] [Cool]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9953316987","repostId":"2301475181","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2301475181","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1673140820,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2301475181?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-08 09:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Earnings Season Will Test the Market’s Great Start","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2301475181","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Investors got their Goldilocks jobs report on Friday morning, with a growing-but-slowing labor marke","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Investors got their Goldilocks jobs report on Friday morning, with a growing-but-slowing labor market, a tick-up in participation, and a deceleration in the pace of wage gains.</p><p>It was the kind of release that makes an oft-wished-for soft landing seem almost possible.</p><p>If job growth can continue without fueling a wage-price spiral, then perhaps it won&#39;t take a recession to break the back of inflation, especially as increases in commodities and goods prices continue to reverse.

Revenue, though, is forecast to rise 4.1% year over year in the fourth quarter, to $3.7 trillion, and 11.2% for all of 2022, to $13.8 trillion. The fact that sales are rising but earnings are falling is a sign that corporate profit margins appear to have peaked for this cycle.</p><p>The earnings slump won&#39;t hit all companies equally. The energy and industrial sectors are expected to be outliers, delivering EPS growth of 65% and 43%, respectively, from a year earlier. Those are among the cyclically sensitive companies that suffered the most during the Covid-19 recession and are still enjoying the rebound.</p><p>On the opposite end of the spectrum are materials, where earnings are forecast to drop by 22% as prices of many industrial inputs have returned to earth; communication services, down 21% due to an expected drop in advertising spending and continued streaming losses at many media companies; and consumer discretionary, down 15% on potentially weaker spending in 2023. Tech, which makes up close to a quarter of the S&amp;P 500&#39;s EPS, is expected to show a 9% decline in earnings in the fourth quarter as wage costs balloon at many software companies, enterprise demand slows, and semiconductors remain in a downturn. Expectations are so low that the fourth-quarter results could be strong relative to forecasts.</p><p>But those beats might not matter if companies can&#39;t provide at least a decent outlook for 2023.</p><p>The bottom-up consensus -- gleaned by summing the average earnings estimates from all individual stock and sector analysts for each of the companies in the S&amp;P 500 -- is for EPS to grow by 4.4% to $229.52 in 2023, according to Refinitiv, up from about $220 in 2022.

If that scenario plays out, the shift lower in earnings expectations would make the market appear pricier even as the Fed continues to increase interest rates.Needless to say, that's not a winning combination for stocks -- no matter what the jobs report said.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".SPX":0.9,"BAC":0.9,"JE":1,"JPM":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"DAL":0.9,"UNH":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1426,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9927495101,"gmtCreate":1672551540903,"gmtModify":1676538704476,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Waiting

Or is this historically cyclical sector up to its old tricks and headed into a sustained downtrend that will rip your face off.</p>\n<p>A lot depends on your timeline but if you like to own stocks for years rather than rent them for days, the group is a buy. The chief reason: “It’s different this time.”</p>\n<p>Those are admittedly among the scariest words in investing. But the chip sector has changed so much it really is different now – in ways that suggest it is less likely to crush you.</p>\n<p>You’d be a fool to think there are no risks. I’ll go over those. But first, here are the three main reasons why the group is “safer” now – and six names favored by the half-dozen sector experts I’ve talked with over the past several days.</p>\n<p><b>1. The wicked witch of cyclicality is dead</b></p>\n<p>“Demand in the chip sector was always boom and bust, driven by product cycles,” says David Winborne, a portfolio manager at Impax Asset Management. “<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FBNC\">First</a> PCs, then servers, then phones.” But now demand for chips has broadened across the economy so the secular growth story is more predictable, he says.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JE\">Just</a> look around you. Because of the increased “digitalization” of our lives and work, there’s greater diversity of end market demand from all angles. Think remote office services like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a>, online shopping, cloud services, electric vehicles, 5G phones, smart factories, big data computing and even washing machines, points out Hendi Susanto, a portfolio manager and tech analyst at Gabelli Funds who is bullish on the group.</p>\n<p>“There is no aspect of the modern digital economy that can function without semiconductors,” says Motley Fool chip sector analyst John Rotonti. “That means more chips going into everything. The long-term demand is there.”</p>\n<p>He’s not kidding. Chip sector revenue will double by 2030 to $1 trillion from $465 billion in 2020, predicts William&nbsp;Blair&nbsp;analyst Greg Scolaro.</p>\n<p>All of this means the widespread supply shortages you’ve been hearing about “likely won’t be cured until sometime late next year,” says <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\">Bank of America</a> chip sector analyst Vivek Arya. “That’s not just our view, but <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> confirmed by a majority of large customers.”</p>\n<p><b>2. The players have consolidated</b></p>\n<p>All up and down the production chain, from design through the various types of equipment producers to manufacturing, industry players have consolidated down into what Rotonti calls “earned” duopolies or monopolies.</p>\n<p>In chip design software, you have Cadence Design Systems&nbsp;and Synopsys.In production equipment, companies dominate specialized niches like ASML&nbsp;in extreme ultraviolet lithography&nbsp;(EUV). Manufacturing is dominated by Taiwan Semiconductor&nbsp;and Samsung Electronics.</p>\n<p>These companies earned their niche or duopoly status by being the best at what they do. This makes them interesting for investors. The consolidation also means players behave more rationally in terms of pricing and production capacity, says Rotonti.</p>\n<p><b>3. Profitability has improved</b></p>\n<p>This more rational behavior, combined with cost cutting, means profitability is now much higher than it was historically. “The economics of chip making has improved massively over past few years,” says Winbourne.

Or is this historically cyclical sector up to its old tricks and headed into a sustained downtrend that will rip your face off.\nA lot depends on your timeline but if you like to own stocks for years rather than rent them for days, the group is a buy. The chief reason: “It’s different this time.”\nThose are admittedly among the scariest words in investing. But the chip sector has changed so much it really is different now – in ways that suggest it is less likely to crush you.\nYou’d be a fool to think there are no risks. I’ll go over those. But first, here are the three main reasons why the group is “safer” now – and six names favored by the half-dozen sector experts I’ve talked with over the past several days.\n1. The wicked witch of cyclicality is dead\n“Demand in the chip sector was always boom and bust, driven by product cycles,” says David Winborne, a portfolio manager at Impax Asset Management. “First PCs, then servers, then phones.” But now demand for chips has broadened across the economy so the secular growth story is more predictable, he says.\nJust look around you. Because of the increased “digitalization” of our lives and work, there’s greater diversity of end market demand from all angles. Think remote office services like Zoom, online shopping, cloud services, electric vehicles, 5G phones, smart factories, big data computing and even washing machines, points out Hendi Susanto, a portfolio manager and tech analyst at Gabelli Funds who is bullish on the group.\n“There is no aspect of the modern digital economy that can function without semiconductors,” says Motley Fool chip sector analyst John Rotonti. “That means more chips going into everything. The long-term demand is there.”\nHe’s not kidding. Chip sector revenue will double by 2030 to $1 trillion from $465 billion in 2020, predicts William Blair analyst Greg Scolaro.\nAll of this means the widespread supply shortages you’ve been hearing about “likely won’t be cured until sometime late next year,” says Bank of America chip sector analyst Vivek Arya. “That’s not just our view, but one confirmed by a majority of large customers.”\n2. The players have consolidated\nAll up and down the production chain, from design through the various types of equipment producers to manufacturing, industry players have consolidated down into what Rotonti calls “earned” duopolies or monopolies.\nIn chip design software, you have Cadence Design Systems and Synopsys.In production equipment, companies dominate specialized niches like ASML in extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV). Manufacturing is dominated by Taiwan Semiconductor and Samsung Electronics.\nThese companies earned their niche or duopoly status by being the best at what they do. This makes them interesting for investors. The consolidation also means players behave more rationally in terms of pricing and production capacity, says Rotonti.\n3. Profitability has improved\nThis more rational behavior, combined with cost cutting, means profitability is now much higher than it was historically. “The economics of chip making has improved massively over past few years,” says Winbourne. Cash flow or EBITDA margins are often now over 30% whereas a decade ago they were in the 20% range.\nThis has implications for valuation. Though chip stocks trade at about a market multiple, they appear cheap because they are better companies, points out Lamar Villere, portfolio manager with Villere & Co. “They are not trading at a frothy multiple.”\nThe stocks to buy\nHere are six names favored by chip experts I recently checked in with.\nNew management plays\nThough Peter Karazeris, a senior equity research analyst at Thrivent, has reasons to be cautious on the group (see below), he singles out two companies whose performance may get a boost because they are under new management: Qualcomm and ON Semiconductor.\nBoth have solid profitability. Qualcomm was recently hit by one-off issues like bad weather in Texas that disrupted production, but the company has good exposure to the 5G phone trend. ON Semiconductor is expanding beyond phones into new areas like autos, industrial and the Internet of Things connected-device space.\nA data center and gaming play\nKarazeris also singles out Nvidia,which gets a continuing boost from its exposure to data center and gaming device chip demand — because of its superior design prowess.\nDesign tool companies\nSpeaking of design, when companies like Qualcomm and NVIDIA want to design chips, they turn to the design tools supplied by Cadence Design Systems and Synopsys.\nTheir software-based design tools help chip innovators create the blueprint for their chips, explains Rotonti at Motley Fool, who singles out these names. “They are not the fastest growers in the world, but they have good profit margins.” They also dominate the space.\nAn EUV play\nTo put those blueprints onto silicon in the early stages of chip production, companies like Taiwan Semiconductor and Samsung turn to ASML. Its machines use tiny bursts of light to stencil chip designs onto silicon wafers, in a process called extreme ultraviolet lithography. “No one else has figured out how to do it,” says Rotonti.\nIn other words, it has a monopoly position in supplying machines that do this – which are necessary for any company that wants to make leading edge chips.\nRisks\nHere are some of the chief risks for chip sector investors to watch.\nOversupply\nChip production has become politicized. The U.S. wants more production at home so it is not vulnerable to disruptions in Chinese supply chains. China wants to make 70% of the chips it uses by 2025, up from 5% now, says Winborne.\nThe upshot here is that there’s lots of government support to boost manufacturing – so there will be much more of it.

That relative strength is admirable, but it's a bit frustrating for investors who don't want to pay the wrong price for the right company.</p>\n<p>That's why I'm making a shopping list of expensive tech stocks which I'd eagerly buy during the next market crash. Let's take a look at three of those companies:<b>Snowflake</b>(NYSE:SNOW),<b>Twilio</b>(NYSE:TWLO), and&nbsp;<b>CrowdStrike</b>(NASDAQ:CRWD).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fde232ce39d9cd52a01fd6ec018cae53\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>1. Snowflake</b></p>\n<p>Snowflake was one of the hottest tech IPOs of 2020, thanks to its jaw-dropping growth rates and big investments from&nbsp;<b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<b>salesforce.com</b>.</p>\n<p>Snowflake'scloud-baseddata warehouse pulls all of a company's data onto a single platform, where it can then be fed into third-party data visualization apps. Its service breaks down the silos between different departments and computing platforms, which makes it easier for large companies to make data-driven decisions.</p>\n<p>Snowflake's number of customers jumped 73% to 4,139 in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), including 186 of the Fortune 500 companies. Its revenue surged 124% to $592 million, as its net retention rate -- which gauges its year-over-year revenue growth per existing customer -- hit 165%.</p>\n<p>That growth continued in the first quarter of 2022. Its revenue rose 110% year over year to $228.9 million, its number of customers increased 67% to 4,532, and it achieved a net retention rate of 168%.</p>\n<p>But Snowflake isn't profitable yet. ItsGAAPnet loss widened from $348.5 million in fiscal 2020 to $539.1 million in fiscal 2021, and<i>more than doubled</i>from $93.6 million to $203.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. It's also unprofitable on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes its stock-based compensation expenses.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect Snowflake's revenue to rise 88% this year, with a narrower loss. However, its stock still trades at 65 times this year's sales -- which indicates there's still far too much growth baked into the stock. But if Snowflake gets cut in half in a crash, I'd considerstarting a big position.</p>\n<p><b>2. Twilio</b></p>\n<p>Twilio's cloud platform processes text messages, calls, and videos within apps. For example, it helps&nbsp;<b>Lyft</b>'s passengers contact their drivers, and&nbsp;<b>Airbnb</b>'s guests reach their hosts.</p>\n<p>In the past, developers built those tools from scratch, which was generally time-consuming, buggy, and difficult to scale. However, developers can now outsource those features to Twilio's cloud service by simply adding a few lines of code to their apps.</p>\n<p>Twilio's revenue rose 55% to $1.76 billion in 2020. Its net expansion rate, which is comparable to Snowflake's net retention rate, reached 137%. In the first quarter of 2021, its revenue jumped 62% year over year to $590 million as it integrated its recent purchase of the customer data firm Segment.</p>\n<p>Twilio remains unprofitable on a GAAP basis, but its non-GAAP net income rose 62% to $35.9 million in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, its non-GAAP net income rose another 15% to $9.6 million.</p>\n<p>Analysts expect its revenue to rise 44% this year, but for its non-GAAP earnings to dip into the red again amid higher investments and rising A2P (application-to-person) fees, which are now charged by carriers whenever an app accesses an SMS network.</p>\n<p>That near-term outlook doesn't look great for a stock that trades at nearly 30 times this year's sales. However, I still think Twilio has great growth potential, and I'd definitely buy its stock at a lower price.</p>\n<p><b>3. CrowdStrike</b></p>\n<p>CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company that differs from its industry peers in one major way. Most cybersecurity companies install on-site appliances to support their services, which can be expensive to maintain and difficult to scale as an organization expands. CrowdStrike eliminates those appliances by offering its end-to-end security platform as a cloud-based service.</p>\n<p>CrowdStrike's growth clearly reflects its disruptive potential.

That relative strength is admirable, but it's a bit frustrating for investors who don't want to pay the wrong price for the right company.\nThat's why I'm making a shopping list of expensive tech stocks which I'd eagerly buy during the next market crash. Let's take a look at three of those companies:Snowflake(NYSE:SNOW),Twilio(NYSE:TWLO), and CrowdStrike(NASDAQ:CRWD).\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n1. Snowflake\nSnowflake was one of the hottest tech IPOs of 2020, thanks to its jaw-dropping growth rates and big investments from Berkshire Hathaway and salesforce.com.\nSnowflake'scloud-baseddata warehouse pulls all of a company's data onto a single platform, where it can then be fed into third-party data visualization apps. Its service breaks down the silos between different departments and computing platforms, which makes it easier for large companies to make data-driven decisions.\nSnowflake's number of customers jumped 73% to 4,139 in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), including 186 of the Fortune 500 companies. Its revenue surged 124% to $592 million, as its net retention rate -- which gauges its year-over-year revenue growth per existing customer -- hit 165%.\nThat growth continued in the first quarter of 2022. Its revenue rose 110% year over year to $228.9 million, its number of customers increased 67% to 4,532, and it achieved a net retention rate of 168%.\nBut Snowflake isn't profitable yet. ItsGAAPnet loss widened from $348.5 million in fiscal 2020 to $539.1 million in fiscal 2021, andmore than doubledfrom $93.6 million to $203.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. It's also unprofitable on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes its stock-based compensation expenses.\nAnalysts expect Snowflake's revenue to rise 88% this year, with a narrower loss. However, its stock still trades at 65 times this year's sales -- which indicates there's still far too much growth baked into the stock. But if Snowflake gets cut in half in a crash, I'd considerstarting a big position.\n2. Twilio\nTwilio's cloud platform processes text messages, calls, and videos within apps. For example, it helps Lyft's passengers contact their drivers, and Airbnb's guests reach their hosts.\nIn the past, developers built those tools from scratch, which was generally time-consuming, buggy, and difficult to scale. However, developers can now outsource those features to Twilio's cloud service by simply adding a few lines of code to their apps.\nTwilio's revenue rose 55% to $1.76 billion in 2020. Its net expansion rate, which is comparable to Snowflake's net retention rate, reached 137%. In the first quarter of 2021, its revenue jumped 62% year over year to $590 million as it integrated its recent purchase of the customer data firm Segment.\nTwilio remains unprofitable on a GAAP basis, but its non-GAAP net income rose 62% to $35.9 million in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, its non-GAAP net income rose another 15% to $9.6 million.\nAnalysts expect its revenue to rise 44% this year, but for its non-GAAP earnings to dip into the red again amid higher investments and rising A2P (application-to-person) fees, which are now charged by carriers whenever an app accesses an SMS network.\nThat near-term outlook doesn't look great for a stock that trades at nearly 30 times this year's sales. However, I still think Twilio has great growth potential, and I'd definitely buy its stock at a lower price.\n3. CrowdStrike\nCrowdStrike is a cybersecurity company that differs from its industry peers in one major way. Most cybersecurity companies install on-site appliances to support their services, which can be expensive to maintain and difficult to scale as an organization expands. CrowdStrike eliminates those appliances by offering its end-to-end security platform as a cloud-based service.\nCrowdStrike's growth clearly reflects its disruptive potential. Its revenue rose 82% to $874.4 million in fiscal 2021 (which ended this January), its number of subscription customers increased 82% to 9,896, and its net retention rate stayed above 120%.\nIn the first quarter of fiscal 2022, its revenue rose 70% year over year to $302.8 million, its subscriber base expanded 82% year over year to 11,420, and it kept its retention rate above 120%.\nCrowdStrike also turned profitable on a non-GAAP basis in 2021, with a net profit of $62.6 million. Its non-GAAP net income rose more than fivefold year over year to $23.3 million in the first quarter of 2022.\nThose numbers are impressive, but CrowdStrike still trades at about 350 times forward earnings and more than 40 times this year's sales. Therefore, this is another stock I won't buy unless the market crashes.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TWLO":0.9,"CRWD":0.9,"SNOW":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":975,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":194456888,"gmtCreate":1621395304744,"gmtModify":1704356939305,"author":{"id":"3570656625926041","authorId":"3570656625926041","name":"Alfred1007","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81d8406380cbc0525927f00a9510f2fa","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570656625926041","idStr":"3570656625926041"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Don't know where to invest now..waiting..","listText":"Don't know where to invest now..waiting..","text":"Don't know where to invest now..waiting..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/194456888","repostId":"2136999458","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2136999458","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":1621372003,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2136999458?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-19 05:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street closes lower on weak telecom stocks despite strong retail earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2136999458","media":"Reuters","summary":"May 18 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks ended down on Tuesday, slumping on a sharp decline in telecom stocks ","content":"<p>May 18 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks ended down on Tuesday, slumping on a sharp decline in telecom stocks and weak housing starts data that overshadowed better-than-expected earnings from Walmart and Home Depot.</p><p>AT&amp;T Inc&nbsp;shed 5.8%, among the biggest percentage decliners in the benchmark S&amp;P 500.
