Long story short, NIO reported 3Q24 earnings Wednesday before the bell, and the results make me reiterate my long-term positive sentiment on the stock. I'm now more confident that the company is better positioned to benefit from 1. the ONVO brand new L60 vehicle that should widen NIO's presence in the broader mainstream family market and 2. management's efforts to expand to international markets while also prioritizing profitability.</p><p>Despite a record number in EV deliveries for the quarter, up 11.6% year-over-year and 7.8% sequentially, management's outlook for 4Q24 didn't impress investors. The company now expects to deliver 72,000 to 75,000 units, resembling a 43.9%- 49.9% year-over-year growth rate and total revenue for the range of $2.8 billion- $2.9 billion, for 15%- 19.2% year-over-year growth but missing analysts' expectations at $3.18 billion. The stock was down ~2% in pre-market trading due to the miss on guidance, but that didn't last long, and the stock regained some of these losses when the stock closed ~1% higher at the end of the trading day. I mentioned this once, but there's no harm in saying it again: NIO isn't for the faint-hearted. The stock is down ~14% since I last wrote on NIO in mid-October. My sentiment is catered more toward the long-term investors who want to ride the wave of concern to the top.</p><h3 id=\"id_1246972689\">Stock performance:</h3><p>NIO is currently underperforming the S&P500 and the domestic peer group on the one-month chart. The stock is down 10.9%, against the S&P500, up 1%, XPeng (XPEV) up 20%, Li Auto (LI) down ~10%, and BYD Co Ltd (OTCPK:BYDDF) down 8%.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/532d4decc2a7e2bfedcde462dd2d08aa\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"490\"/></p><p></p><p>What I'm seeing is that NIO isn't standing out in the red, and the drop echoes the broader struggle of Chinese stocks. I don't think we'll see this trend taint into FY25, particularly as the Beijing stimulus plan should act as a helping hand to the EV sector in China. I discussed this further in my previous note, but I'll reiterate it again since it still proves relevant. The Chinese government's efforts to revive the economy should reflect positively on consumer spending, in spite of fears of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump slapping up to 60% tariffs on all goods imported from China. Chen Zhiwu, a top finance professor at the University of Hong Kong, thinks the tariffs "might force the leadership in Beijing to have no other choice but to focus on the economy." Since Trump's first term and through Biden's term, the Chinese economic growth slumped from 7% to 4.5%. This might be China's wake-up call to focus more inward than outwards when it comes to reviving its economy.</p><p>According to Lei Xing, a Chinese auto industry expert, China is taking over the world, "except North America. The U.S. will be the last frontier." When you think about it, the U.S. is currently merely playing catchup with China. Over the past 15 years, China rolled out a public charging network that's over 10 million strong, used incentives and subsidies to convince billions of drivers to migrate to electric vehicles, and introduced over 100 EV brands with many pricing options. In both July and August of this year, over half of total automotive sales in China were either electric or hybrid. Back to NIO, the way I'm looking at it now is the stock remains cheap for the growth potential it has in China and abroad.</p><h3 id=\"id_1209999062\">What was, is, and everything in between:</h3><h3 id=\"id_1952781035\">On deliveries:</h3><p>NIO posted weaker-than-anticipated revenue for the quarter, but gross margins improved, and free cash flow turned positive. The EV leader reported revenue down 2.1% year over year but up 7% sequentially, marking the second-highest quarterly revenue in NIO's history. Regarding deliveries, NIO reported another record of 61,855 vehicles for the quarter, within its guidance range of 61,000 to 63,000 vehicles, up 11.5% year over year and 7.81% sequentially.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/13cce1e87ed41578025d38a0dd3f8d07\" tg-width=\"1082\" tg-height=\"565\"/></p><p></p><p>As previously mentioned, NIO's guidance for 4Q24 rubbed investors the wrong way. Since management is expecting deliveries in the range of 72,000 to 75,000, this guidance basically means that NIO is expected to deliver around 51,024 to 54,024 vehicles in November and December; that is, of course, considering it delivered 20,976 vehicles in October. On the latter, the company delivered 16,657 vehicles from the premium smart electric vehicle NIO brand and 4.319 vehicles from the company's family-oriented smart electric vehicle brand ONVO.</p><h3 id=\"id_816888857\">On profitability: "From now and beyond"</h3><p>For the third quarter, vehicle sales were down 4.1% year over year but up 6.5% quarter over quarter. The decline year over year was due to lower average selling prices resulting from changes in product mix, offset by higher deliveries. The sequential increase, on the other hand, is mainly due to increased delivery volume. Cost of sales was down 5% year over year but increased 5.8% sequentially. The decrease resulted from lower material costs per vehicle, and the increase was mainly due to higher delivery volume.</p><p>The company's gross profit was also up 31.8% year over year and 18.9% sequentially. The gross margin was 10.7%, the highest since 3Q22, above the consensus of 10.6%, and higher than the 8% in a year quarter, and 9.7% sequentially. Vehicle margin was 13.1% in 3Q24, up from 11% in a year ago quarter and 12.2% last quarter, mainly due to decreased material cost per unit. I expect this to continue into 2025 due to management's hyperfocus on profitability after the launch of the ONVO brand. According to management on the earnings call, their primary focus is to keep</p><blockquote><p>Enhancing our premium brand positioning and improving our product profitability.</p></blockquote><p>Starting in October, the company began dialing back on promotions and incentives, which affected their sales volume for the short term. Over the last month, however, there was a "bounce back momentum on our order backlog." Going into next quarter, management is confident that they could realize a vehicle margin of 15% in Q4 for the new brand and 20% in 2025. I'm more concerned about next year when the company plans to continue improving vehicle margins and the supply chain. The so-called "iterations and upgrades" on the smart hardware are also expected to improve the cost structure and provide more competitive products and costs.</p><h3 id=\"id_2807732166\">The L60:</h3><p>The ONVO brand started delivering its first model, the L60, on September 28th, and with it entering the family market. Through aiming for that market, early results show a hit with family users thanks to "its spacious carbon ultra-low energy consumption, comprehensive safety features, and the hassle-free charging and swapping experience." In terms of smart driving, NIO's smart driving reached over 610,00 users, with over 78% activating the "Navigate on Pilot." This was rolled out with L60, making ONVO the first brand to "deliver vision-based navigation guided smart driving on urban road."</p><p>ONVO L60 is expected to hit 10,000 in December and 20,000 units by March, which is lower than market expectations but within the company's "reasonable speed and pace." I think what a lot of people are failing to realize is the cutting-edge technology this car will have; for instance, with 900-volt high-voltage architecture and several new technologies implemented into the vehicle, I think the brand is well within its right to take its time to cultivate high customer adoption.</p><p>Considering the long delivery time, I expect that to weigh on the short term but not the long term. Although management didn't disclose specifics regarding the conversion rate, it gave us a taste of what it would look like. According to William Li, the company's Founder, Chairman, and CEO:</p><blockquote><p>This conversion rate is higher than any existing new product.</p></blockquote><h3 id=\"id_211814198\">Valuation:</h3><p>NIO has a market cap of $9.7 billion and an enterprise value of $9.98 billion. The stock price is down over 37% in the past 52 weeks, with a beta of 1.90, indicating a price volatility higher than the market average. This is not unusual for NIO, as one look at the stock's year-to-date performance tells the story. The company continues investing in R&D and its market expansion, which, I think, is an excuse for the low profitability at the moment. Management noted that:</p><blockquote><p>Regarding the R&D expenses in general, we will be having our investment in R&D for around RMB3 billion per quarter ($42.2 million) and we will be stabilizing at around that level. But because of the differences of the projects and also at the different stages of the R&D, the actual spending, there will be ups and downs in the actual spending for every quarter.</p></blockquote><p>As for the next quarter, R&D expenses are expected to be higher than 3Q, and in 2025, expenses should be around $42.2 million non-GAAP. I am optimistic about management's hyperfocus on profitability, and I am looking forward to seeing their margins pick up more meaningfully next year.</p><p>The market sentiment is cautiously positive on the stock, with around 18% of Street Analysts giving it a strong buy, 39.3% a hold, and the rest a sell. The PT mean and median have had a wild ride, to say the least. Back in late August, the PT median was $7.10, down to $6.05 in September, up slightly to $7 in October, and now stands at $6.80. The PT mean was at $7.9 in late August, down to $7.19 in September, up to $7.5, and is currently down to $7.39. I think despite the wins of this quarter, the market remains wary of NIO's growth potential.</p><p>As for the valuation metrics, and compared to its domestic peers, NIO seems to remain relatively inexpensive at current levels. With the EV/Sales ratio (TTM) at 1.14 and EV/Sales at 1.04, NIO trades are slightly higher than Li Auto, with EV/Sales (TTM) and EV/Sales at 0.49. NIO is in line with BYD's, with EV/Sales (TTM) at 1.08 and EV/Sales at 1.02. However, NIO remains cheaper than XPeng with EV/Sales (TTM) at 1.92, EV/Sales at 1.82, and Tesla with EV/Sales (TTM) at 11.09 and EV/Sales at 10.78.</p><h2 id=\"id_2535012985\">What's next: Globalization efforts (again)</h2><p>In my last note, I watched NIO's collaboration with UAE's CYVN Holdings, and this quarter led me to put more weight on this collaboration. By November 28th, the first NIO house in the MENA region while sales, and delivery have already started in the UAE. Through the new products of ONVO and Firefly, the company plans to accelerate its entry into the international market. Firefly is NIO's third and latest brand, and it's set to make its global debut on NIO Day 2024. The first product is set to be delivered during 1H25, targeting the boutique compact car market. I think the product lineup this brand offers will further enhance NIO's position and market reach, allowing it to cater to more customers. According to management, both ONVO and Firefly have a broader market, which is globally speaking and helps in international expansion efforts.

I reiterate my buy rating while disclaiming that this stock is not for the faint-hearted.I update my positive outlook this quarter and now expect growth to be supported by the new L60 vehicle and international expansion efforts, prioritizing profitability.NIO's stock underperforms peers and the S&P500, but Beijing's stimulus plan and economic revival efforts should benefit the EV sector in China.Additionally, the long-awaited focus on profitability, improved gross margins, and strategic international expansion should pay off more meaningfully next year.I hereon share my positive sentiment on NIO and why I see green shoots for 2025.Investment thesis:What was shaping up to be a good day for NIO (NYSE:NIO) got disrupted by an underwhelming outlook. Long story short, NIO reported 3Q24 earnings Wednesday before the bell, and the results make me reiterate my long-term positive sentiment on the stock. I'm now more confident that the company is better positioned to benefit from 1. the ONVO brand new L60 vehicle that should widen NIO's presence in the broader mainstream family market and 2. management's efforts to expand to international markets while also prioritizing profitability.Despite a record number in EV deliveries for the quarter, up 11.6% year-over-year and 7.8% sequentially, management's outlook for 4Q24 didn't impress investors. The company now expects to deliver 72,000 to 75,000 units, resembling a 43.9%- 49.9% year-over-year growth rate and total revenue for the range of $2.8 billion- $2.9 billion, for 15%- 19.2% year-over-year growth but missing analysts' expectations at $3.18 billion. The stock was down ~2% in pre-market trading due to the miss on guidance, but that didn't last long, and the stock regained some of these losses when the stock closed ~1% higher at the end of the trading day. I mentioned this once, but there's no harm in saying it again: NIO isn't for the faint-hearted. The stock is down ~14% since I last wrote on NIO in mid-October. My sentiment is catered more toward the long-term investors who want to ride the wave of concern to the top.Stock performance:NIO is currently underperforming the S&P500 and the domestic peer group on the one-month chart. The stock is down 10.9%, against the S&P500, up 1%, XPeng (XPEV) up 20%, Li Auto (LI) down ~10%, and BYD Co Ltd (OTCPK:BYDDF) down 8%.What I'm seeing is that NIO isn't standing out in the red, and the drop echoes the broader struggle of Chinese stocks. I don't think we'll see this trend taint into FY25, particularly as the Beijing stimulus plan should act as a helping hand to the EV sector in China. I discussed this further in my previous note, but I'll reiterate it again since it still proves relevant. The Chinese government's efforts to revive the economy should reflect positively on consumer spending, in spite of fears of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump slapping up to 60% tariffs on all goods imported from China. Chen Zhiwu, a top finance professor at the University of Hong Kong, thinks the tariffs \"might force the leadership in Beijing to have no other choice but to focus on the economy.\" Since Trump's first term and through Biden's term, the Chinese economic growth slumped from 7% to 4.5%. This might be China's wake-up call to focus more inward than outwards when it comes to reviving its economy.According to Lei Xing, a Chinese auto industry expert, China is taking over the world, \"except North America. The U.S. will be the last frontier.\" When you think about it, the U.S. is currently merely playing catchup with China. Over the past 15 years, China rolled out a public charging network that's over 10 million strong, used incentives and subsidies to convince billions of drivers to migrate to electric vehicles, and introduced over 100 EV brands with many pricing options. In both July and August of this year, over half of total automotive sales in China were either electric or hybrid. Back to NIO, the way I'm looking at it now is the stock remains cheap for the growth potential it has in China and abroad.What was, is, and everything in between:On deliveries:NIO posted weaker-than-anticipated revenue for the quarter, but gross margins improved, and free cash flow turned positive. The EV leader reported revenue down 2.1% year over year but up 7% sequentially, marking the second-highest quarterly revenue in NIO's history. Regarding deliveries, NIO reported another record of 61,855 vehicles for the quarter, within its guidance range of 61,000 to 63,000 vehicles, up 11.5% year over year and 7.81% sequentially.As previously mentioned, NIO's guidance for 4Q24 rubbed investors the wrong way. Since management is expecting deliveries in the range of 72,000 to 75,000, this guidance basically means that NIO is expected to deliver around 51,024 to 54,024 vehicles in November and December; that is, of course, considering it delivered 20,976 vehicles in October. On the latter, the company delivered 16,657 vehicles from the premium smart electric vehicle NIO brand and 4.319 vehicles from the company's family-oriented smart electric vehicle brand ONVO.On profitability: \"From now and beyond\"For the third quarter, vehicle sales were down 4.1% year over year but up 6.5% quarter over quarter. The decline year over year was due to lower average selling prices resulting from changes in product mix, offset by higher deliveries. The sequential increase, on the other hand, is mainly due to increased delivery volume. Cost of sales was down 5% year over year but increased 5.8% sequentially. The decrease resulted from lower material costs per vehicle, and the increase was mainly due to higher delivery volume.The company's gross profit was also up 31.8% year over year and 18.9% sequentially. The gross margin was 10.7%, the highest since 3Q22, above the consensus of 10.6%, and higher than the 8% in a year quarter, and 9.7% sequentially. Vehicle margin was 13.1% in 3Q24, up from 11% in a year ago quarter and 12.2% last quarter, mainly due to decreased material cost per unit. I expect this to continue into 2025 due to management's hyperfocus on profitability after the launch of the ONVO brand. According to management on the earnings call, their primary focus is to keepEnhancing our premium brand positioning and improving our product profitability.Starting in October, the company began dialing back on promotions and incentives, which affected their sales volume for the short term. Over the last month, however, there was a \"bounce back momentum on our order backlog.\" Going into next quarter, management is confident that they could realize a vehicle margin of 15% in Q4 for the new brand and 20% in 2025. I'm more concerned about next year when the company plans to continue improving vehicle margins and the supply chain. The so-called \"iterations and upgrades\" on the smart hardware are also expected to improve the cost structure and provide more competitive products and costs.The L60:The ONVO brand started delivering its first model, the L60, on September 28th, and with it entering the family market. Through aiming for that market, early results show a hit with family users thanks to \"its spacious carbon ultra-low energy consumption, comprehensive safety features, and the hassle-free charging and swapping experience.\" In terms of smart driving, NIO's smart driving reached over 610,00 users, with over 78% activating the \"Navigate on Pilot.\" This was rolled out with L60, making ONVO the first brand to \"deliver vision-based navigation guided smart driving on urban road.\"ONVO L60 is expected to hit 10,000 in December and 20,000 units by March, which is lower than market expectations but within the company's \"reasonable speed and pace.\" I think what a lot of people are failing to realize is the cutting-edge technology this car will have; for instance, with 900-volt high-voltage architecture and several new technologies implemented into the vehicle, I think the brand is well within its right to take its time to cultivate high customer adoption.Considering the long delivery time, I expect that to weigh on the short term but not the long term. Although management didn't disclose specifics regarding the conversion rate, it gave us a taste of what it would look like. According to William Li, the company's Founder, Chairman, and CEO:This conversion rate is higher than any existing new product.Valuation:NIO has a market cap of $9.7 billion and an enterprise value of $9.98 billion. The stock price is down over 37% in the past 52 weeks, with a beta of 1.90, indicating a price volatility higher than the market average. This is not unusual for NIO, as one look at the stock's year-to-date performance tells the story. The company continues investing in R&D and its market expansion, which, I think, is an excuse for the low profitability at the moment. Management noted that:Regarding the R&D expenses in general, we will be having our investment in R&D for around RMB3 billion per quarter ($42.2 million) and we will be stabilizing at around that level. But because of the differences of the projects and also at the different stages of the R&D, the actual spending, there will be ups and downs in the actual spending for every quarter.As for the next quarter, R&D expenses are expected to be higher than 3Q, and in 2025, expenses should be around $42.2 million non-GAAP. I am optimistic about management's hyperfocus on profitability, and I am looking forward to seeing their margins pick up more meaningfully next year.The market sentiment is cautiously positive on the stock, with around 18% of Street Analysts giving it a strong buy, 39.3% a hold, and the rest a sell. The PT mean and median have had a wild ride, to say the least. Back in late August, the PT median was $7.10, down to $6.05 in September, up slightly to $7 in October, and now stands at $6.80. The PT mean was at $7.9 in late August, down to $7.19 in September, up to $7.5, and is currently down to $7.39. I think despite the wins of this quarter, the market remains wary of NIO's growth potential.As for the valuation metrics, and compared to its domestic peers, NIO seems to remain relatively inexpensive at current levels. With the EV/Sales ratio (TTM) at 1.14 and EV/Sales at 1.04, NIO trades are slightly higher than Li Auto, with EV/Sales (TTM) and EV/Sales at 0.49. NIO is in line with BYD's, with EV/Sales (TTM) at 1.08 and EV/Sales at 1.02. However, NIO remains cheaper than XPeng with EV/Sales (TTM) at 1.92, EV/Sales at 1.82, and Tesla with EV/Sales (TTM) at 11.09 and EV/Sales at 10.78.What's next: Globalization efforts (again)In my last note, I watched NIO's collaboration with UAE's CYVN Holdings, and this quarter led me to put more weight on this collaboration. By November 28th, the first NIO house in the MENA region while sales, and delivery have already started in the UAE. Through the new products of ONVO and Firefly, the company plans to accelerate its entry into the international market. Firefly is NIO's third and latest brand, and it's set to make its global debut on NIO Day 2024. The first product is set to be delivered during 1H25, targeting the boutique compact car market. I think the product lineup this brand offers will further enhance NIO's position and market reach, allowing it to cater to more customers. According to management, both ONVO and Firefly have a broader market, which is globally speaking and helps in international expansion efforts. I reiterate my buy and emphasize that this stock is truly not for the faint-hearted.Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Due to the relatively weak performance in recent months, the company is unlikely to meet its annual production goals this year, while the ongoing price war within the EV industry has already led to the margin contraction and made NIO reach the unsustainable levels of cash burn. Add to all of this the fact that the company's global ambitions could be undermined due to the lack of pricing advantage along with the increase of geopolitical risks, and it becomes obvious that NIO's upside is limited. Therefore, even though its stock could gain some momentum in the short-term due to the improvement of the overall market sentiment, it's hard to justify owning the company's shares for the long-term given all the challenges that the business faces.</p><h2>It's Getting Worse</h2><p>Since the start of the year, NIO has been actively engaged in trying to aggressively expand its business, thanks to the increased demand for electric vehicles in China and across the globe. In late March, the company opened its third showroom in Europe, after which it hinted that it was preparing to launch a small new budget EV for the European market next year. At the same time, back at home, it launched the newest version of its budget-friendly crossover ES6 only a few weeks ago, which has an estimated range from 490 km to 625 km. On top of that, there's also an indication that NIO is about to upgrade the batteries of some of its vehicles, which will come from a semi-solid-state battery supplier in the foreseeable future.</p><p>However, despite all of those developments, NIO continues to disappoint its shareholders and makes it hard to consider its stock as a solid investment. Just last week, the company revealed its Q1 earnings results which showed that while its revenues were up 7.7% Y/Y to $1.55 billion, they were nevertheless below the street estimates. At the same time, its non-GAAP EPADS were -$0.36 per share, while the business itself barely managed to meet its quarterly delivery target by delivering 31,041 EVs during the three-month period.</p><p>What's worse is that the situation is unlikely to significantly improve in the following months. For Q2, NIO already expects its revenue to be in the range of $1.27 billion to $1.36 billion, which is a decrease of between 15.1% Y/Y and 9% Y/Y. On top of that, it also expects to deliver 23,000 to 25,000 vehicles during the second quarter, which also represents a decrease of between 8.2% and 0.2% in comparison to the year before.</p><p>Considering that in April and May NIO already delivered 6658 and 6155 vehicles, respectively, it means that in June alone it needs to deliver at least 10,187 EVs to meet its minimum target for the quarter. While the company could get an additional boost in sales thanks to the recent launch of ES6, there's still a decent chance that NIO could fail to reach its targets given its relatively weak performance in the last two months.</p><p>In addition to all of this, in late 2022 NIO's CEO indirectly hinted that he expects the company's sales to be over 200,000 in 2023, while the business's CFO later in March in an interview to Bloomberg said that he's confident that they'll be able to sell 250,000 EVs this year. Considering NIO's relatively weak performance in the first half of the current year, I find it hard to believe that the company will be able to produce over ~140,000 vehicles in the second half of 2023 to reach the goal of delivering even 200,000 EVs.</p><p>What's worse is that on top of expecting a decrease in revenues and deliveries in Q2, the company's margins are likely to continue to decrease even more due to the ongoing price war in the EV market. In Q1, NIO's vehicle margins already decreased to 5.1% from 18.1% a year ago, and given the company's latest decision to cut prices for all of its models by $4000, there is every reason to believe that the bottom-line performance would suffer even more in the following quarters. At the same time, by ending the free battery swapping program there's a risk that customers would be incentivized to purchase vehicles of the company's competitors as it would make even less sense to acquire NIO's EVs when one of the most important and popular features is no longer free.</p><p>Therefore, as the ongoing price war has no end in sight, and it becomes even harder for the business to stop the cash burn due to the declining margins and increasing expenses, it would be safe to assume that later this year NIO would be prompted to execute another capital raise to stay afloat. Back in 2021, NIO has already executed a $2 billion ATM offering which diluted its shareholders but also increased its liquidity from $6.7 billion in Q3'21 to $8.3 billion in Q4'21. However, after nearly two years after that capital raise the business is still significantly unprofitable and the expected relatively weak performance in the following months along with the increase in competition will make it hard for NIO to reach a breakeven point anytime soon. At the end of Q1'23, the company already had only $4.8 billion in cash reserves and as those reserves dwindle while profits are not expected in the following years, a capital raise appears to be only a matter of time.</p><h2>Global Ambitions Ruined?</h2><p>Another issue that NIO currently faces is the inability to properly compete on a global stage. Recently, the company's CEO has indicated that NIO has the ambition to take on the German-based legacy automaker Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY) in its own market by launching a new electric model in Europe at a price of under âŹ30,000. However, NIO is more than likely to face several major challenges that could undermine its European endeavors in the foreseeable future.</p><p>First of all, the company plans to produce new models for European consumers back in China in a factory that's currently under a construction. As such, there is every reason to believe that NIO won't have a major pricing power in the European region, since higher shipping costs along with the vulnerability of long-distance supply chains would make it higher for the business to successfully compete with legacy brands that have production facilities in Europe. This is one of the reasons why Tesla (TSLA) has been actively diversifying its supply chains and opened the factory in Berlin last year to have better pricing power in the region.</p><p>Add to all of this the fact that NIO's vehicle margins are already thin and are on a decline due to the price war, and it becomes even harder to believe that the company will be able to successfully compete with the well-established names without burning even more cash than today. There's also no guarantee that European consumers would be interested in purchasing NIO's cars in the first place. In Q1, the company sold only 328 of its cars in Europe, while in Q2 so far it sold only 287 of its vehicles there. Volkswagen on the other hand has been selling over 60,000 EVs in Europe each quarter in the last few quarters. Considering this, it's hard to see how NIO plans to establish a solid ground in the region given all the challenges that it currently faces, while at the same time, the potential worsening of the Sino-European relations would make it even harder for the company to aggressively expand in the region in the following years.</p><p>What's worse is that NIO hasn't been able to successfully penetrate Europe so far, and yet there are already plans to enter the United States market in 2025. In my opinion, this plan is mostly wishful thinking due to the fierce competition in the region along with the lack of any production facility there as well. In addition, the worsening of Sino-American relations would make it even harder for any Chinese brand to penetrate the U.S. market in the foreseeable future. NIO has already experienced the impact of the ongoing trade war as the implementation of the American export restrictions on chips last year has likely negatively affected its data center infrastructure which was run on Nvidia's (NVDA) A100 GPUs. While Nvidia managed to get around the restrictions by offering a cut-down version of A100 GPUs for the Chinese market, a potential Sino-American confrontation in the future makes it hard to believe that NIO would be able to establish a solid presence in the United States in the future. Add to all of this the fact that there's still a risk that NIO's shares could be delisted from American exchanges due to the issues with audits of Chinese-based firms, and it becomes obvious that the company's global ambitions could be ruined at any moment.</p><h2>The Bottom Line</h2><p>Given all the challenges that NIO faces, it's hard to justify the company's current $15 billion market cap. There are already questions about whether the company's global expansion is sustainable in the long-term, while the ongoing price war in the EV industry would make it even harder for the automaker to stop the cash burn and become profitable. The street currently believes that NIO could reach a breakeven point in 2026, but a potential further margin contraction along with the potential inability to reach its delivery targets for this year could make those expectations sound too optimistic. As such, I believe that there's no point in even bothering to invest in the company at this stage as capital raise is likely around the corner given the unsustainable cash burn levels.</p><p><em>This article is written by </em><strong><em>Bohdan Kucheriavyi</em></strong><em> for reference only.

Due to the relatively weak performance in recent months, the company is unlikely to meet its annual production goals this year, while the ongoing price war within the EV industry has already led to the margin contraction and made NIO reach the unsustainable levels of cash burn. Add to all of this the fact that the company's global ambitions could be undermined due to the lack of pricing advantage along with the increase of geopolitical risks, and it becomes obvious that NIO's upside is limited. Therefore, even though its stock could gain some momentum in the short-term due to the improvement of the overall market sentiment, it's hard to justify owning the company's shares for the long-term given all the challenges that the business faces.It's Getting WorseSince the start of the year, NIO has been actively engaged in trying to aggressively expand its business, thanks to the increased demand for electric vehicles in China and across the globe. In late March, the company opened its third showroom in Europe, after which it hinted that it was preparing to launch a small new budget EV for the European market next year. At the same time, back at home, it launched the newest version of its budget-friendly crossover ES6 only a few weeks ago, which has an estimated range from 490 km to 625 km. On top of that, there's also an indication that NIO is about to upgrade the batteries of some of its vehicles, which will come from a semi-solid-state battery supplier in the foreseeable future.However, despite all of those developments, NIO continues to disappoint its shareholders and makes it hard to consider its stock as a solid investment. Just last week, the company revealed its Q1 earnings results which showed that while its revenues were up 7.7% Y/Y to $1.55 billion, they were nevertheless below the street estimates. At the same time, its non-GAAP EPADS were -$0.36 per share, while the business itself barely managed to meet its quarterly delivery target by delivering 31,041 EVs during the three-month period.What's worse is that the situation is unlikely to significantly improve in the following months. For Q2, NIO already expects its revenue to be in the range of $1.27 billion to $1.36 billion, which is a decrease of between 15.1% Y/Y and 9% Y/Y. On top of that, it also expects to deliver 23,000 to 25,000 vehicles during the second quarter, which also represents a decrease of between 8.2% and 0.2% in comparison to the year before.Considering that in April and May NIO already delivered 6658 and 6155 vehicles, respectively, it means that in June alone it needs to deliver at least 10,187 EVs to meet its minimum target for the quarter. While the company could get an additional boost in sales thanks to the recent launch of ES6, there's still a decent chance that NIO could fail to reach its targets given its relatively weak performance in the last two months.In addition to all of this, in late 2022 NIO's CEO indirectly hinted that he expects the company's sales to be over 200,000 in 2023, while the business's CFO later in March in an interview to Bloomberg said that he's confident that they'll be able to sell 250,000 EVs this year. Considering NIO's relatively weak performance in the first half of the current year, I find it hard to believe that the company will be able to produce over ~140,000 vehicles in the second half of 2023 to reach the goal of delivering even 200,000 EVs.What's worse is that on top of expecting a decrease in revenues and deliveries in Q2, the company's margins are likely to continue to decrease even more due to the ongoing price war in the EV market. In Q1, NIO's vehicle margins already decreased to 5.1% from 18.1% a year ago, and given the company's latest decision to cut prices for all of its models by $4000, there is every reason to believe that the bottom-line performance would suffer even more in the following quarters. At the same time, by ending the free battery swapping program there's a risk that customers would be incentivized to purchase vehicles of the company's competitors as it would make even less sense to acquire NIO's EVs when one of the most important and popular features is no longer free.Therefore, as the ongoing price war has no end in sight, and it becomes even harder for the business to stop the cash burn due to the declining margins and increasing expenses, it would be safe to assume that later this year NIO would be prompted to execute another capital raise to stay afloat. Back in 2021, NIO has already executed a $2 billion ATM offering which diluted its shareholders but also increased its liquidity from $6.7 billion in Q3'21 to $8.3 billion in Q4'21. However, after nearly two years after that capital raise the business is still significantly unprofitable and the expected relatively weak performance in the following months along with the increase in competition will make it hard for NIO to reach a breakeven point anytime soon. At the end of Q1'23, the company already had only $4.8 billion in cash reserves and as those reserves dwindle while profits are not expected in the following years, a capital raise appears to be only a matter of time.Global Ambitions Ruined?Another issue that NIO currently faces is the inability to properly compete on a global stage. Recently, the company's CEO has indicated that NIO has the ambition to take on the German-based legacy automaker Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY) in its own market by launching a new electric model in Europe at a price of under âŹ30,000. However, NIO is more than likely to face several major challenges that could undermine its European endeavors in the foreseeable future.First of all, the company plans to produce new models for European consumers back in China in a factory that's currently under a construction. As such, there is every reason to believe that NIO won't have a major pricing power in the European region, since higher shipping costs along with the vulnerability of long-distance supply chains would make it higher for the business to successfully compete with legacy brands that have production facilities in Europe. This is one of the reasons why Tesla (TSLA) has been actively diversifying its supply chains and opened the factory in Berlin last year to have better pricing power in the region.Add to all of this the fact that NIO's vehicle margins are already thin and are on a decline due to the price war, and it becomes even harder to believe that the company will be able to successfully compete with the well-established names without burning even more cash than today. There's also no guarantee that European consumers would be interested in purchasing NIO's cars in the first place. In Q1, the company sold only 328 of its cars in Europe, while in Q2 so far it sold only 287 of its vehicles there. Volkswagen on the other hand has been selling over 60,000 EVs in Europe each quarter in the last few quarters. Considering this, it's hard to see how NIO plans to establish a solid ground in the region given all the challenges that it currently faces, while at the same time, the potential worsening of the Sino-European relations would make it even harder for the company to aggressively expand in the region in the following years.What's worse is that NIO hasn't been able to successfully penetrate Europe so far, and yet there are already plans to enter the United States market in 2025. In my opinion, this plan is mostly wishful thinking due to the fierce competition in the region along with the lack of any production facility there as well. In addition, the worsening of Sino-American relations would make it even harder for any Chinese brand to penetrate the U.S. market in the foreseeable future. NIO has already experienced the impact of the ongoing trade war as the implementation of the American export restrictions on chips last year has likely negatively affected its data center infrastructure which was run on Nvidia's (NVDA) A100 GPUs. While Nvidia managed to get around the restrictions by offering a cut-down version of A100 GPUs for the Chinese market, a potential Sino-American confrontation in the future makes it hard to believe that NIO would be able to establish a solid presence in the United States in the future. Add to all of this the fact that there's still a risk that NIO's shares could be delisted from American exchanges due to the issues with audits of Chinese-based firms, and it becomes obvious that the company's global ambitions could be ruined at any moment.The Bottom LineGiven all the challenges that NIO faces, it's hard to justify the company's current $15 billion market cap. There are already questions about whether the company's global expansion is sustainable in the long-term, while the ongoing price war in the EV industry would make it even harder for the automaker to stop the cash burn and become profitable. The street currently believes that NIO could reach a breakeven point in 2026, but a potential further margin contraction along with the potential inability to reach its delivery targets for this year could make those expectations sound too optimistic. As such, I believe that there's no point in even bothering to invest in the company at this stage as capital raise is likely around the corner given the unsustainable cash burn levels.This article is written by Bohdan Kucheriavyi for reference only.

The market for generative AI chips might be hot, but enterprise AI software is still in the development process and sales cycles take time. My investment thesis is much more Neutral on the stock near support around $14, but Palantir doesn't become a true value until lower prices near $10.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb9c5e604ff5bc1ad7de44de3c4f4ef3\" alt=\"Source: Finviz\" title=\"Source: Finviz\" tg-width=\"991\" tg-height=\"422\"/><span>Source: Finviz</span></p><h2 id=\"id_3619610116\">Takes Time To Transform Business</h2><p>The hype surrounding AI is the potential to transform businesses. Palantir will use enterprise AI software to harness the power of large language models and algorithms.</p><p>On the Q2'23 earnings call, CTO Shyam Sankar describes how LLMs have limiting factors as follows:</p><blockquote><p>Large language models occupy a middle ground between algorithmic reasoning and human thought. They are fluent in natural language, yet they don't really understand what they say. They are not good at executing algorithms yet, they can be instructed in ordinary prose.</p><p>They are something else, non-algorithm compute. LLMs are statistics, not calculus. And the introduction of even one stochastic variable into a deterministic system makes the entire system now stochastic.</p></blockquote><p>The key here is that this opens up Palantir to offer customers enterprise AI solutions to harness the powers of LLM. The company uses algorithmic and software tools to power the statistics summarized in LLMs, such as with AIP, to deliver outcomes and accelerate workflows.</p><p>The problem for Palantir is that sales process and software implementation take time. The company only reported Q2 sales of $533 million for just 13% growth, a new low quarterly growth rate since going public.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/26a437b8de39ffba85d8abf4002ca2b5\" alt=\"Data by YCharts\" title=\"Data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>The excitement surrounding LLMs and ChatGPT started back last November. Sure the excitement has grown in the last few quarters with Nvidia reporting massive demand growth for AI chips, but Palantir has seen virtually none of the boosted demand for LLMs actually flow through to higher revenues.</p><p>As highlighted on the earnings call, AIP is shortening the sales cycle, but it's not preventing a sales cycle. Not to mention, the AIP product hasn't been on the market for 3 months now.</p><p><strong>C3.ai</strong> (AI) provided investors with more details on the generative AI impact on the enterprise software sales cycle. On the FQ4'23 earnings call, CEO Tom Siebel discussed a sales cycle that decreased by 1.3 months for a company that also shortened sales cycles due to the move to a consumption pricing model:</p><blockquote><p>The average sales cycle for new and expansion deals was 3.7 months down from five months in Q4 of the previous year.</p></blockquote><p>The clear enterprise AI software industry indication is that generative AI chat has increased product interest, but large companies still take a long time to sign deals and implement new software. Palantir might not see a real benefit from generative AI chat demand until way into 2024.</p><p>Another concern is that actual ChatGPT usage has dipped in the last few months in another sign the usage of generative AI is being rationalized. Users are now looking for chatbots to prove their worth and working with Palantir is a potential path, but such a shift will take time.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4507cfe702e94bffa8342ecde614364\" alt=\"Source: ZDNET\" title=\"Source: ZDNET\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"393\"/><span>Source: ZDNET</span></p><h2 id=\"id_2102893111\">Minimal $1 Billion Buyback</h2><p>A lot of technology companies are rushing out share buybacks, though stocks really don't trade at levels offering a value. Palantir announced a $1 billion share buyback, but the current stock valuation sits at over $36 billion with a diluted share count of 2.28 billion.</p><p>The share buyback plan only amounts to repurchasing 2.7% of the outstanding shares providing limited benefit to shareholders. Palantir has a $3.1 billion cash balance, but the company shouldn't necessarily spend the cash on share buybacks at any price.</p><p>If the stock fell back to $10, Palantir would more logically utilize the share buyback. The enterprise AI software company could repurchase over 4% of the outstanding shares at the lowered price.</p><p>After all, the diluted share count rose 61K in just the sequential quarter from 2.22 billion shares in Q1'23. The company heavily diluted shareholders via share-based compensation at a listed cost of $115 million in Q2'23. The additional share dilution during the quarter was actually worth nearly $1 billion in market cap based on the current stock price.</p><p>Palantir guided to FQ3 revenues of $553 to $557 million for ~16% growth. The analyst targets don't get the enterprise AI software business back to 20% growth rates anytime soon.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba947dd28fafe17cfdd1342972e3ffe1\" alt=\"Source: Seeking Alpha\" title=\"Source: Seeking Alpha\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"214\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>All the AI hype isn't exactly showing up in the financial projections. The stock is far more interesting at $14 due to the stock support and far better value than up at $20 when Palantir traded at nearly 20x forward sales.</p><p>The stock still trades at 13x 2024 sales targets of $2.63 billion. The AIP product offers a lot of promise for long-term AI software growth, but Palantir still can't avoid the sales cycle.</p><p>The current revenue targets suggest no real sales momentum nearly a year after the start of the generative AI craze due to the launch of ChatGPT and a 2nd quarter of the AIP product on market.

The market for generative AI chips might be hot, but enterprise AI software is still in the development process and sales cycles take time. My investment thesis is much more Neutral on the stock near support around $14, but Palantir doesn't become a true value until lower prices near $10.Source: FinvizTakes Time To Transform BusinessThe hype surrounding AI is the potential to transform businesses. Palantir will use enterprise AI software to harness the power of large language models and algorithms.On the Q2'23 earnings call, CTO Shyam Sankar describes how LLMs have limiting factors as follows:Large language models occupy a middle ground between algorithmic reasoning and human thought. They are fluent in natural language, yet they don't really understand what they say. They are not good at executing algorithms yet, they can be instructed in ordinary prose.They are something else, non-algorithm compute. LLMs are statistics, not calculus. And the introduction of even one stochastic variable into a deterministic system makes the entire system now stochastic.The key here is that this opens up Palantir to offer customers enterprise AI solutions to harness the powers of LLM. The company uses algorithmic and software tools to power the statistics summarized in LLMs, such as with AIP, to deliver outcomes and accelerate workflows.The problem for Palantir is that sales process and software implementation take time. The company only reported Q2 sales of $533 million for just 13% growth, a new low quarterly growth rate since going public.Data by YChartsThe excitement surrounding LLMs and ChatGPT started back last November. Sure the excitement has grown in the last few quarters with Nvidia reporting massive demand growth for AI chips, but Palantir has seen virtually none of the boosted demand for LLMs actually flow through to higher revenues.As highlighted on the earnings call, AIP is shortening the sales cycle, but it's not preventing a sales cycle. Not to mention, the AIP product hasn't been on the market for 3 months now.C3.ai (AI) provided investors with more details on the generative AI impact on the enterprise software sales cycle. On the FQ4'23 earnings call, CEO Tom Siebel discussed a sales cycle that decreased by 1.3 months for a company that also shortened sales cycles due to the move to a consumption pricing model:The average sales cycle for new and expansion deals was 3.7 months down from five months in Q4 of the previous year.The clear enterprise AI software industry indication is that generative AI chat has increased product interest, but large companies still take a long time to sign deals and implement new software. Palantir might not see a real benefit from generative AI chat demand until way into 2024.Another concern is that actual ChatGPT usage has dipped in the last few months in another sign the usage of generative AI is being rationalized. Users are now looking for chatbots to prove their worth and working with Palantir is a potential path, but such a shift will take time.Source: ZDNETMinimal $1 Billion BuybackA lot of technology companies are rushing out share buybacks, though stocks really don't trade at levels offering a value. Palantir announced a $1 billion share buyback, but the current stock valuation sits at over $36 billion with a diluted share count of 2.28 billion.The share buyback plan only amounts to repurchasing 2.7% of the outstanding shares providing limited benefit to shareholders. Palantir has a $3.1 billion cash balance, but the company shouldn't necessarily spend the cash on share buybacks at any price.If the stock fell back to $10, Palantir would more logically utilize the share buyback. The enterprise AI software company could repurchase over 4% of the outstanding shares at the lowered price.After all, the diluted share count rose 61K in just the sequential quarter from 2.22 billion shares in Q1'23. The company heavily diluted shareholders via share-based compensation at a listed cost of $115 million in Q2'23. The additional share dilution during the quarter was actually worth nearly $1 billion in market cap based on the current stock price.Palantir guided to FQ3 revenues of $553 to $557 million for ~16% growth. The analyst targets don't get the enterprise AI software business back to 20% growth rates anytime soon.Source: Seeking AlphaAll the AI hype isn't exactly showing up in the financial projections. The stock is far more interesting at $14 due to the stock support and far better value than up at $20 when Palantir traded at nearly 20x forward sales.The stock still trades at 13x 2024 sales targets of $2.63 billion. The AIP product offers a lot of promise for long-term AI software growth, but Palantir still can't avoid the sales cycle.The current revenue targets suggest no real sales momentum nearly a year after the start of the generative AI craze due to the launch of ChatGPT and a 2nd quarter of the AIP product on market. The consensus analyst estimates still aren't showing the AI hype driving accelerating revenue growth for enterprise software.TakeawayThe key investor takeaway is that Palantir is a much better deal down here around $14. The ideal entry point for the enterprise AI software stock is back closer to $10 when the stock dips below 10x forward sales targets. The share buyback program offers real impacts when the price falls closer to $10 and share repurchases can buy up to 5% of the outstanding shares to help offset share dilution.Palantir might not fall that low, but investors have no reason to be aggressive here with enterprise AI software spending not accelerating like generative AI chat hype.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":207360036323568,"gmtCreate":1691654016669,"gmtModify":1691654021513,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Drop to 5 again please ","listText":"Drop to 5 again please ","text":"Drop to 5 again please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/207360036323568","repostId":"2358070752","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2358070752","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the worldâs 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":1691625276,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2358070752?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-08-10 07:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Stock Tumbles Over 10%, the Worst Six-Day Stretch Since May 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2358070752","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Palantir was a big AI winner and then August started.

After that, investors need to look at its 200-day moving average at $10.Hopefully, it doesn't come to that.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":234,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":206386714636504,"gmtCreate":1691419112659,"gmtModify":1691419115247,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/PLTR\">$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ </a> Yes","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/PLTR\">$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ </a> Yes","text":"$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/206386714636504","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":204975481634840,"gmtCreate":1691052358254,"gmtModify":1691052361589,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah oracle from $wish","listText":"Yeah oracle from $wish","text":"Yeah oracle from $wish","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/204975481634840","repostId":"2356994794","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2356994794","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1690967733,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2356994794?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-08-02 17:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"SoFi Stock Dives 4% After Cut to Underperform at KBW on Valuation","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2356994794","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) shares dropped 9.61% on Tuesday and continued to slide in premarket trading on Wednesday after Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, downgraded the stock to Underperform from Market","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">SoFi Technologies</a> shares dropped 9.61% on Tuesday and continued to slide nearly 4% in premarket trading on Wednesday after Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, downgraded the stock to Underperform from Market Perform following a surge from its mid-May trough.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4b89e389fe4b25a6cbd60807886f5de7\" tg-width=\"786\" tg-height=\"620\"/></p><p>Since bottoming out at $4.76 in mid-May, SOFI has popped some 120% to $10.54 at 12:23 p.m. ET.

Even if your retirement is a ways off, it's never too early to start planning for a better and stronger financial future.</p><p>Here are four different stocks, each on a unique growth trajectory, that have the potential to multiply a $100,000 investment by at least 5 times in the years ahead.</p><h2>1. Shopify</h2><p>The growth of the digital economy continues to pave the way for the future, and the buying and selling of goods online remains a significant aspect of that journey. E-commerce spend will account for 31% of all retail transactions in the U.S. alone by 2026, compared to its current share of 23%, according to <b>Morgan Stanley</b>.</p><p>An estimated 20% of all e-commerce sites globally are built on <b>Shopify</b>'s platform. Shopify has made it straightforward and accessible for anyone, anywhere to create an online business. With subscriptions to build and maintain a store starting at just $29 a month, the company continues to attract a wide range of entrepreneurs and enterprises looking to capitalize on the growth of the digital economy.</p><p>In the most recent quarter, the company delivered revenue growth of 22% to $1.4 billion, driven by subscription solutions and merchant solutions revenue growth of 12% and 26%, respectively, from the year-ago period. Since the time of the stock's initial public offering in 2015, the company has grown its revenue by well over 4,000% while delivering a total return of approximately 1,300% for investors.</p><p>The macro environment is impacting consumer spending right now, but the buying and selling of goods online isn't going anywhere. Shopify provides the full spectrum of services, web technologies, and integrations required to launch and support an online business, and the company's leading market share means its platform is ideally placed to benefit from both the near-term and long-term growth of the explosive e-commerce market.</p><p>It's certainly not a stretch of the imagination that Shopify could augment its current share price by 5 times or more over the next decade.</p><h2>2. Vertex Pharmaceuticals</h2><p>Healthcare stocks often possess a unique advantage during difficult economic backdrops, because the products and services these companies provide enjoy steady demand that's not subject to the cyclicality other industries face. In the case of <b>Vertex Pharmaceuticals</b> specifically, its focus on the rare disease drug market has enabled it to deliver astonishing growth and consistent shareholder returns throughout the years.</p><p>To date, Vertex Pharmaceuticals has four approved products on the market. All of these drugs treat cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that affects more than 100,000 people globally. The prevalence of cystic fibrosis is only increasing, and it's estimated about 1,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with the illness every year.</p><p>While Vertex Pharmaceuticals effectively dominates the fast-growing cystic fibrosis drug market, this is far from the only catalyst on which it can launch its business to future growth. It is actively building out its pipeline of therapeutic candidates targeting a wide variety of rare diseases and will soon seek approval for exa-cel, a treatment for the rare blood disorders sickle cell and beta thalassemia that it developed with its long-term partner <b>CRISPR Therapeutics</b>. If exa-cel is given the regulatory green light, it will be the first CRISPR product ever approved for a genetic illness.</p><p>Over the past three years alone, a time of broad volatility for companies across a wide variety of sectors, Vertex Pharmaceuticals has delivered a total return of 34%, while its revenue and net income have risen 109% and 178%, respectively, during that same period. It has also increased its cash flow from operations to the tune of about 150% during that three-year window.</p><p>Given the company's widening footprint in the rare disease drug market and its steady track record, there's no reason to think Vertex Pharmaceuticals can't compound its share price returns several times over in the years ahead.</p><h2>3. Teladoc Health</h2><p><b>Teladoc Health</b> was one of the leading forces in the rapidly evolving telehealth market before COVID-19. The onset of the pandemic accelerated its growth trajectory and the pace of innovation in this space, and the future will only multiply the need for effective, full-service virtual care solutions. Teladoc's platform is ideally positioned to benefit from these long-lasting tailwinds, and despite what its share price might indicate, the company is already doing so.</p><p>There's no denying now that Teladoc probably overpaid for Livongo when it bought the health-tech platform in 2020, and that was the driving force behind the nearly $10 billion in impairment charges the company reported in the first half of 2022.</p><p>However, those eye-popping losses seem to be gradually retreating into the background. Teladoc's net loss dropped to $74 million in the most recent quarter, a net loss of $0.45 per share compared to a net loss of $0.53 in the year-ago period.</p><p>Meanwhile, Teladoc's third-quarter revenue jumped 17% year over year to $611 million. The company is profitable on a free-cash-flow basis, having generated free cash flow of $20 million in the quarter. It also ended the period with $900 million of cash and investments on its balance sheet.</p><p>Its position as one of the key platforms at the forefront of the $84 billion telehealth industry bodes well for its potential going forward.</p><h2>4. Airbnb</h2><p>The global travel industry may be slowing down as fears of a far-reaching recession take hold, but <b>Airbnb</b> continues to go from strength to strength. It's becoming increasingly apparent that Airbnb's growth trajectory isn't predicated solely around trends within the tourism sector.</p><p>This is largely due to the fact Airbnb's platform caters to far more than short-term travelers. Digital nomads, remote workers looking for long-term stays, and tenants seeking alternatives to a regular lease structure also use the Airbnb platform.</p><p>In the second quarter, long-term stays -- which are bookings of 28 days or more -- had risen 25% year over year. By the third quarter, long-term stays accounted for approximately 20% of all bookings on the platform. Its third-quarter revenue and net income also jumped about 75% and 355%, respectively, from the same quarter of 2019.</p><p>Meanwhile, the company recently announced it will be launching partnerships with a dozen major apartment landlords across the country, allowing users to go on Airbnb and look for an apartment the same way they would through a real estate agency site or other traditional real estate platforms.</p><p>For buy-and-hold investors, this growth stock could contribute generous returns to your portfolio.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>4 Stocks That Can Turn $100,000 Into $500,000 by the Time You Retire</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\">\n4 Stocks That Can Turn $100,000 Into $500,000 by the Time You Retire\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-12-23 16:02 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/22/4-stocks-that-can-turn-100k-into-500k-for-retire/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Most investors won't build life-changing wealth from the stock market overnight, but when you're investing in wonderful stocks for many years at a time, you don't need to hit a one-time jackpot to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/22/4-stocks-that-can-turn-100k-into-500k-for-retire/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"ABNB":"çąĺ˝źčż","TDOC":"Teladoc Health Inc.","SHOP":"Shopify Inc","VRTX":"çŚćł°ĺśčŻ"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/22/4-stocks-that-can-turn-100k-into-500k-for-retire/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2293589941","content_text":"Most investors won't build life-changing wealth from the stock market overnight, but when you're investing in wonderful stocks for many years at a time, you don't need to hit a one-time jackpot to build and sustain meaningful returns.

If exa-cel is given the regulatory green light, it will be the first CRISPR product ever approved for a genetic illness.Over the past three years alone, a time of broad volatility for companies across a wide variety of sectors, Vertex Pharmaceuticals has delivered a total return of 34%, while its revenue and net income have risen 109% and 178%, respectively, during that same period. It has also increased its cash flow from operations to the tune of about 150% during that three-year window.Given the company's widening footprint in the rare disease drug market and its steady track record, there's no reason to think Vertex Pharmaceuticals can't compound its share price returns several times over in the years ahead.3. Teladoc HealthTeladoc Health was one of the leading forces in the rapidly evolving telehealth market before COVID-19. The onset of the pandemic accelerated its growth trajectory and the pace of innovation in this space, and the future will only multiply the need for effective, full-service virtual care solutions. Teladoc's platform is ideally positioned to benefit from these long-lasting tailwinds, and despite what its share price might indicate, the company is already doing so.There's no denying now that Teladoc probably overpaid for Livongo when it bought the health-tech platform in 2020, and that was the driving force behind the nearly $10 billion in impairment charges the company reported in the first half of 2022.However, those eye-popping losses seem to be gradually retreating into the background. Teladoc's net loss dropped to $74 million in the most recent quarter, a net loss of $0.45 per share compared to a net loss of $0.53 in the year-ago period.Meanwhile, Teladoc's third-quarter revenue jumped 17% year over year to $611 million. The company is profitable on a free-cash-flow basis, having generated free cash flow of $20 million in the quarter. It also ended the period with $900 million of cash and investments on its balance sheet.Its position as one of the key platforms at the forefront of the $84 billion telehealth industry bodes well for its potential going forward.4. AirbnbThe global travel industry may be slowing down as fears of a far-reaching recession take hold, but Airbnb continues to go from strength to strength. It's becoming increasingly apparent that Airbnb's growth trajectory isn't predicated solely around trends within the tourism sector.This is largely due to the fact Airbnb's platform caters to far more than short-term travelers. Digital nomads, remote workers looking for long-term stays, and tenants seeking alternatives to a regular lease structure also use the Airbnb platform.In the second quarter, long-term stays -- which are bookings of 28 days or more -- had risen 25% year over year. By the third quarter, long-term stays accounted for approximately 20% of all bookings on the platform. Its third-quarter revenue and net income also jumped about 75% and 355%, respectively, from the same quarter of 2019.Meanwhile, the company recently announced it will be launching partnerships with a dozen major apartment landlords across the country, allowing users to go on Airbnb and look for an apartment the same way they would through a real estate agency site or other traditional real estate platforms.For buy-and-hold investors, this growth stock could contribute generous returns to your portfolio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":197,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":395935431713280,"gmtCreate":1737689335271,"gmtModify":1737689339144,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/U\">$Unity Software Inc.(U)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> the next meme stock ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/U\">$Unity Software Inc.(U)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> the next meme stock ","text":"$Unity Software Inc.(U)$ the next meme stock","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/395935431713280","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":228,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":217306385133736,"gmtCreate":1694077383844,"gmtModify":1694077388369,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"So I'm waiting for inverse Cathie wood etf?","listText":"So I'm waiting for inverse Cathie wood etf?","text":"So I'm waiting for inverse Cathie wood etf?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/217306385133736","repostId":"2365402090","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2365402090","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1694101200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2365402090?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-09-07 23:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The 3 Best Cathie Wood Stocks to Buy Now: September 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2365402090","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Most of Cathie Wood's stock picks are not too impressive.

Management stunned bearish investors with its revised profitability guidance.</li><li>We discuss how its e-commerce segment could reach profitability exiting Q4'23. However, investors need to factor in increased macro risks that could impact its monetization efforts.</li><li>We discuss why investors looking to add SE should continue to wait patiently first.</li><li>Revising from Speculative Buy to Hold for now.</li></ul><h3>Thesis</h3><p>We presented our thesis in our pre-earnings article on Sea Limited (NYSE:SE), arguing that the market had anticipated an underwhelming Q3 release as it closed in on its November lows.</p><p>As such, we aren't surprised that the market sent SE surging in a momentum spike, hitting our previous price target (PT), as SE rallied nearly 61% from its November bottom.</p><p>Management came out with guns blazing against bearish investors after pulling guidance in Q2 previously. Accordingly, CEO Forrest Li's emphasis in its Q3 commentary on Shopee (Sea Limited's e-commerce arm) to reach adjusted EBITDA breakeven exiting Q4'23 stunned the bears.</p><p>Notwithstanding, SE has pulled back nearly 20% from its recent surge, which should be expected. Moreover, we postulate that the market has likely reflected the optimism in Sea Limited's more constructive guidance with its recent surge. As such, we believe the market will likely parse Sea Limited's execution moving forward before a material re-rating is justified.</p><p>Hence, we believe the reward/risk in SE looks relatively well-balanced at these levels. Revising from Speculative Buy to Hold for now.</p><h3>Shopee: How Can It Reach Adjusted EBITDA by FY23?</h3><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1382346c1bbcfe20f003a0de17e41dbd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>The consensus estimates have been revised upward with management's upgraded guidance for Shopee. As such, Wall Street analysts project Sea Limited to post an adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.2% in FY23.</p><p>However, it's predicated on revenue growth of 16.7% for FY23, below FY22's 21.6% uptick. Based on management's commentary, we believe analysts have penciled in a higher bar for SE to cross. Therefore, as we postulated in our previous update, it has likely normalized the Street's more pessimistic forecasts.</p><p>Notably, management highlighted that its focus on its e-commerce profitability drive "may see no growth or even negative growth in certain operating metrics in the near term."</p><p>Hence, the critical profitability driver will be cutting costs expeditiously and improving efficiencies concurrently.</p><p>But the crucial question is how far Shopee is from reaching adjusted EBITDA breakeven.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15df8e681c7c79fd10f5b2355f45beca\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Shopee posted an adjusted EBITDA margin of -26% in FQ3, up from Q2's -37%. Notably, Shopee has also continued to improve its path toward profitability constructively. Hence, investors could be assured that management's execution has been relatively consistent despite worsening macros impacting its key markets.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cd3289e72cdee0c506af925494c635f7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Moreover, Shopee has managed to overcome the significant deceleration of revenue growth since Q1'21, corroborating management's confidence in optimizing efficiencies.</p><p>Notwithstanding, Shopee still posted revenue growth of 32.4% in FQ3, down from FQ2's 51.4%.</p><p>However, due to its cost-rationalization exercise, investors should expect its e-commerce segment to head toward an anemic gross merchandise value (GMV) growth phase. Also, we believe Shopee could be looking at lifting its e-commerce take rates in its profitability drive.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/108ee5cedc45b9ad065e8b8d0bf01d99\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>As seen above, Shopee managed to post take rates of 10.1% in FQ3, well above FQ2's 9.2%. It has also been creeping up over time, which has helped Shopee deliver more robust monetization metrics, despite the slowdown in GMV growth (down to 13.7% in FQ3).</p><p>Hence, it's a lever that Shopee could continue to pull as it pushes toward adjusted EBITDA breakeven. Notably, Shopee posted core marketplace revenue growth of 54% YoY in FQ3, demonstrating its strong execution prowess and value proposition for its merchants.</p><p>Notwithstanding, macroeconomic headwinds could hamper its ability to drive further take rates accretion as it pulls back its GMV growth initiatives. An analyst on the earnings call also highlighted her concern, probing management whether it anticipated a marked impact on advertising revenue.</p><p>While management telegraphed its confidence in its advertising offerings, it also cautioned investors that worsening macro risks could impair Shopee's ability to monetize further (i.e., increase take rates), as Chief Corporate Officer Yanjun Wang articulated:</p><blockquote>We are mindful of the potential macro headwinds that, over time, [could] more deeply affect our region and the market as a whole. And this might affect, for example, people's purchase power, discretionary spending and to the point might also have a more pronounced effect on our platform and overall e-commerce in the region. When that happens, that could have a negative impact on our ability to monetize.

Management stunned bearish investors with its revised profitability guidance.We discuss how its e-commerce segment could reach profitability exiting Q4'23. However, investors need to factor in increased macro risks that could impact its monetization efforts.We discuss why investors looking to add SE should continue to wait patiently first.Revising from Speculative Buy to Hold for now.ThesisWe presented our thesis in our pre-earnings article on Sea Limited (NYSE:SE), arguing that the market had anticipated an underwhelming Q3 release as it closed in on its November lows.As such, we aren't surprised that the market sent SE surging in a momentum spike, hitting our previous price target (PT), as SE rallied nearly 61% from its November bottom.Management came out with guns blazing against bearish investors after pulling guidance in Q2 previously. Accordingly, CEO Forrest Li's emphasis in its Q3 commentary on Shopee (Sea Limited's e-commerce arm) to reach adjusted EBITDA breakeven exiting Q4'23 stunned the bears.Notwithstanding, SE has pulled back nearly 20% from its recent surge, which should be expected. Moreover, we postulate that the market has likely reflected the optimism in Sea Limited's more constructive guidance with its recent surge. As such, we believe the market will likely parse Sea Limited's execution moving forward before a material re-rating is justified.Hence, we believe the reward/risk in SE looks relatively well-balanced at these levels. Revising from Speculative Buy to Hold for now.Shopee: How Can It Reach Adjusted EBITDA by FY23?The consensus estimates have been revised upward with management's upgraded guidance for Shopee. As such, Wall Street analysts project Sea Limited to post an adjusted EBITDA margin of 2.2% in FY23.However, it's predicated on revenue growth of 16.7% for FY23, below FY22's 21.6% uptick. Based on management's commentary, we believe analysts have penciled in a higher bar for SE to cross. Therefore, as we postulated in our previous update, it has likely normalized the Street's more pessimistic forecasts.Notably, management highlighted that its focus on its e-commerce profitability drive \"may see no growth or even negative growth in certain operating metrics in the near term.\"Hence, the critical profitability driver will be cutting costs expeditiously and improving efficiencies concurrently.But the crucial question is how far Shopee is from reaching adjusted EBITDA breakeven.Shopee posted an adjusted EBITDA margin of -26% in FQ3, up from Q2's -37%. Notably, Shopee has also continued to improve its path toward profitability constructively. Hence, investors could be assured that management's execution has been relatively consistent despite worsening macros impacting its key markets.Moreover, Shopee has managed to overcome the significant deceleration of revenue growth since Q1'21, corroborating management's confidence in optimizing efficiencies.Notwithstanding, Shopee still posted revenue growth of 32.4% in FQ3, down from FQ2's 51.4%.However, due to its cost-rationalization exercise, investors should expect its e-commerce segment to head toward an anemic gross merchandise value (GMV) growth phase. Also, we believe Shopee could be looking at lifting its e-commerce take rates in its profitability drive.As seen above, Shopee managed to post take rates of 10.1% in FQ3, well above FQ2's 9.2%. It has also been creeping up over time, which has helped Shopee deliver more robust monetization metrics, despite the slowdown in GMV growth (down to 13.7% in FQ3).Hence, it's a lever that Shopee could continue to pull as it pushes toward adjusted EBITDA breakeven. Notably, Shopee posted core marketplace revenue growth of 54% YoY in FQ3, demonstrating its strong execution prowess and value proposition for its merchants.Notwithstanding, macroeconomic headwinds could hamper its ability to drive further take rates accretion as it pulls back its GMV growth initiatives. An analyst on the earnings call also highlighted her concern, probing management whether it anticipated a marked impact on advertising revenue.While management telegraphed its confidence in its advertising offerings, it also cautioned investors that worsening macro risks could impair Shopee's ability to monetize further (i.e., increase take rates), as Chief Corporate Officer Yanjun Wang articulated:We are mindful of the potential macro headwinds that, over time, [could] more deeply affect our region and the market as a whole. And this might affect, for example, people's purchase power, discretionary spending and to the point might also have a more pronounced effect on our platform and overall e-commerce in the region. When that happens, that could have a negative impact on our ability to monetize.

Huawei has repeatedly denied being a national security risk.\nWhile both Nokia and Ericsson have been gaining customers that might otherwise have gone to Huawei, Ericsson had been faring better with big contract wins in China, where the deployment of the next-generation network is in full swing.\nBut its China business has taken a tit-for-tat hit since Sweden late last year banned Chinese companies from supplying critical 5G network equipment.\nIn a second phase of 5G deployment by China Mobile(CHNMC.UL) last week, Ericsson's 5G radio share dropped from over 11% to about 2%, and Nokia got its first Chinese 5G deal with a 4% share of a $6 billion contract, according to sources.\nIt is also expected to win a portion of upcoming contracts from China Unicom(0762.HK)and China Telecom(0728.HK)at the expense of Ericsson, having failed to make any headway in the world's biggest 5G market last year.read more\n\"The key was making the right moves to correct the actions that really got them behind 5G,\" said Mark Cash, an analyst with Morningstar. \"I think Pekka's imprint is being felt already by the organisation, and he's obviously doing well.\"\nNokia's shares have gained around 30% in the last year, while Ericsson's are up just 2% over the same period.\nCompany insiders say Lundmark's working relationship with Chairwoman Sari Baldauf helped steady the ship when several top executives left the company during a reshuffle in the first months of his tenure, and is gaining him wider support for the overhaul of Nokia.\nThe pair have a long history of working together, including most recently in the same roles at Fortum.\nGEOPOLITICAL TUSSLES\nIt may not all be plain sailing.\nWhile Nokia, Ericsson and Huawei are currently the only companies providing complete 5G wireless networks, the U.S. government for one is now touting a new, more open approach, allowing mobile operators to mix and match equipment from various suppliers and potentially securing U.S. companies a bigger share of the market.\nChina, however, remains far ahead of other countries for 5G deployment - the China Mobile contract for about 500,000 base stations was for more than all the 5G base stations currently in Europe - with competition driving volume and lowering overall costs.\nNokia may swerve Ericsson's current hurdles in the country as Huawei has said that a law approved by Finland allowing authorities to ban telecom equipment for national security reasons is a more realistic approach than focusing on specific vendors.\nBut some analysts caution that being in China could drag on Nokia's margins and any new geopolitical tussles lead to significant losses.\nKimmo Stenvall, an analyst from OP Markets, also said that Nokia's updated outlook would likely take into account the global chip shortage with not enough semiconductors to go around.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":543,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186459245793392,"gmtCreate":1686561743720,"gmtModify":1686561747406,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Look like somebody miss out on a deal đđŤ ","listText":"Look like somebody miss out on a deal đđŤ ","text":"Look like somebody miss out on a deal đđŤ ","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/186459245793392","repostId":"2342576928","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2342576928","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1686561361,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2342576928?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-06-12 17:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Technologies: Sell The AI Rip","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2342576928","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"After a solid beat on Q1'23 earnings, Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) has soared in what wasn't an","content":"<html><head></head><body><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ca0459f275b9aed733014624cae2dc80\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\"/></p><p>After a solid beat on Q1'23 earnings, <strong>Palantir Technologies</strong> (NYSE:PLTR) has soared in what wasn't an overly impressive quarter.

What does Wood see in these three fast-growing companies? Let's take a closer look.</p><h2>Shopify</h2><p>It's been a rough few months for Shopify investors. The fast-growing e-commerce specialist has seen its stock plunge more than 60% since peaking in November. Shopify stock came back to life with last week's market rally in growth stocks, but a 12% slide on Monday to kick off this new trading week shows that shareholders are still looking to take profits following sharp upticks.</p><p>Revenue growth is slowing at Shopify. Its top line surged 86% in 2020, slowing to a 57% pace in 2021. Growth has decelerated sharply the last three quarters. Shopify itself was vague about its guidance, but analysts are holding out for a 31% increase in 2022. Shopify continues to stand out for its ability to arm merchants of all sizes with the tools to establish an online presence that plays nice with most popular e-commerce and social media platforms.</p><h2>Twilio</h2><p>There is a lot to like about Twilio, the undisputed leader of in-app communication solutions. Twilio's cloud-based tools help many of the most popular apps be more effective by providing two-way communication with users -- for everything from service notifications to verification -- without having to leave an app.</p><p>It's growing briskly. Revenue rose 61% in 2021, including a 54% year-over-year uptick for its latest quarter. Acquisitions have helped pad Twilio's growth over the years. Organic revenue rose a more modest 44% clip last year if you back out the bump in political election season revenue from late 2020, but the appeal of the platform remains strong. Retention rates are still healthy, and Twilio continues to successfully expand its offerings.</p><h2>Adaptive Biotechnologies</h2><p>It's been a rough year for Adaptive Biotechnologies. Its CFO resigned in January, and earlier this month the biotech upstart announced that it would be laying off 12% of its staff. The reorganization is part of Adaptive narrowing the focus of its immune system genetic sequencing technology to key in on minimal residual disease and immune medicine.</p><p>The stock has been cut by more than half so far in 2022, and it's down 82% since peaking 14 months ago. The technology is promising, and Adaptive Biotechnologies is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the stocks that Wood was buying earlier last week before she took a three-day break from purchases. Analysts don't see the company turning a profit for several more years, but that's not necessarily a deal breaker for biotech stocks as long as they have the liquidity in place to hold out for a medical breakthrough.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Cathie Wood Goes Bargain Hunting: 3 Stocks She Just Bought</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\">\nCathie Wood Goes Bargain Hunting: 3 Stocks She Just Bought\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-23 23:30 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/22/cathie-wood-goes-bargain-hunting-3-stocks-she-just/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Cathie Wood did an interesting thing last week as stocks were rallying.

Management's shift in focus from growth to profitability will benefit Shopee in the long-term as it communicates to investors that management is looking to grow in a sustainable manner for the long-term. I think that the exits in markets in which it has low confidence in will help further cement its position in its core markets as these markets continue to have strong structural tailwinds due to the low e-commerce penetration.</li><li>Shopee remains focused on Brazil as a core market in Latin America while doing cross border operations in three other markets. With the Latin America e-commerce market being under-penetrated and growing very rapidly, this will further drive growth for Shopee in the long run.</li><li>As an emerging fintech business of Sea, SeaMoney looks set to be the next growth driver as digital payments continue to have strong tailwinds and Sea can benefit from the synergies between SeaMoney and Shopee to compete with peers.</li></ol><h2>Free Fire continues to stabilise</h2><p>In my previous article, I stated that we were starting to see some signs of stabilisation for Free Fire in 2Q22. I think that we are also seeing similar signs for such stabilisation for the gaming segment for 3Q22, which brings a nice upside to the 3Q22 results.</p><p>In India, we see that the stabilisation trends since March 2022 have continued for Free Fire and there has been some trending up sequentially in 3Q22 (July to September) compared to 2Q22 (April to June). Recall that Indian authorities banned Free Fire in the country, which resulted in the decline in the game's grossing share in India.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bdf94afb7a69a8f4332030d2f1be5e10\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"376\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>India mobile games grossings share (Sensor Tower)</span></p><p>Also, in Indonesia, we see that there are also some stabilisation trends since earlier in the year for Free Fire as the game sees normalisation after growth that was fuelled by the pandemic.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f3fc30b24a6ef7b8c34b6bfd4657158\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"392\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Indonesia mobile games grossings share (Sensor Tower)</span></p><p>Put together, we see that there are improving trends for India, Indonesia and the United States as I think that we have indeed seen stabilisation in user trends for Free Fire. Given that we are seeing the normalisation of user behaviour post the pandemic, I think that the effects of the pandemic driven growth have already been reflected in the current levels and things look likely to improve from here.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6e4b8d3fde55d6ad6847c7c9d1de3fb8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"380\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Grossings share for Free Fire across markets (Sensor Tower)</span></p><p>All in all, I think that the stabilisation trends for Free Fire look good for Sea's 3Q22 results as I think that there is scope for the company to beat the rather low expectations for Free Fire at the moment. I would be looking at the user engagement and monetisation metrics for 3Q22 as these could be further catalysts to an improvement in the fundamentals of Sea's gaming business.</p><h2>Continued progress on efficiency gains and on track to meet profitability target</h2><p>Sea has made the headlines for its efficiency efforts as the company remains focused on its profitability target. Shopee is reducing headcount by 3% in Indonesia, while it is also reducing headcount numbers in Singapore and China as well. These are all part of its efforts to improve operating efficiency as the company looks to become self sufficient across its businesses.</p><p>In addition, Sea's top management also will forego their salaries for the foreseeable future until the company manages to reach its goal of self sufficiency. Management also commented that they do not view this as a passing storm that will go away quickly and expects the tough operating conditions to persist in the medium term. I think that this move by management sets a strong example for employees as management is not just looking at ways to reduce headcount to improve on profitability, but even sacrificing themselves for this cause.</p><p>Lastly, we saw that Shopee has exited local operations in most of its Latin America business, except Brazil. As can be seen below, Sea has taken concrete and difficult steps to streamline its business operations. Since leaving the France market in Shopee, the e-commerce segment has exited India, Spain, and in Latin America markets outside of Brazil.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c3458f65b9a4a3da9c761d40764fa848\" tg-width=\"477\" tg-height=\"200\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Summary of efficiency measures (Bloomberg, Reuters, CNBC, India Times)</span></p><p>As a result of the streamlining of its business, I think that this points back to the goal of achieving EBITDA breakeven in the ASEAN and Taiwan region by the end of this year for Shopee. The focus of management has been on achieving sustainable business operations for the long-term and the near-term challenges it has to face is what it takes to get there. Given that the Shopee ASEAN and Taiwan EBITDA loss per order has been successfully narrowed to less than one cent in 2Q22 as per my previous article, I think that this achievement of EBITDA breakeven in ASEAN and Taiwan is increasingly achievable given the actions taken in the past few months.</p><p>All in all, I would expect that Sea will likely beat on the bottom line numbers for 3Q22 as the company has been very proactive in optimising its cost structure and relentlessly focusing on its core markets.</p><h2>Exiting other Latin America markets</h2><p>As Sea's Shopee announced last month, it will be closing its local operations in Mexico, Colombia and Chile while cross border operations will still remain. In addition, Argentina will be exited completely while Shopee will still remain operating in Brazil. The reason cited was that Shopee needs to focus on its core operations given the macro uncertainty that the company faces today.</p><p>As explained earlier, this strategy is a similar one it took in earlier market exits as it looks to focus on its core markets. As management remains focused on certain core markets like ASEAN and Taiwan as well as Brazil, I think that this action is understandable. In addition, it is also aligned to its goal of first focusing on these core markets and achieving profitability. I do not think that management intends to leave these markets indefinitely, but likely more so only temporarily as it shifts its focus on core markets. Shopee could re-enter these markets when the macro environment improves or after the company manages to achieve a stronger profitability and cash flow profile.</p><p>As Shopee continued to maintain cross border operations in three markets in Latin America, I think that by doing this, it ensures that Shopee continues to build relationships with buyers and will continue to work on where it fits in these markets, as well as the different nuances in shopping behaviour in these markets.</p><p>Shopee has been very active in considering which markets to exit and which ones to operate as core markets. This razor focus on the markets that it thinks can drive sustainable growth is key to ensuring that the capital markets continue to remain confident in its ability to not just drive growth, but also generate profitability.</p><h2>Valuation</h2><p>I have taken into account in my forecasts the stabilisation of the gaming segment and also factored in management guidance of achieving breakeven EBITDA in ASEAN and Taiwan by 2023. As I have previously already made adjustments to the valuation multiples of each business segments which is already in-line with global peers, I maintain my valuation multiples as they remain justified given current macro conditions.</p><p>With these assumptions in mind, my 1-year target price for Sea is $139, implying 173% upside from current levels. I think that the risk reward is skewed towards the positive at the moment and there are several catalysts in the 3Q22 results coming up that may drive the share price upward.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/85e4a43865e73850f564932d24651b4c\" tg-width=\"389\" tg-height=\"457\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Sea Limited SOTP Valuation (Author generated)</p><h2>Risks</h2><h4>Competition from other e-commerce companies</h4><p>While Shopee has been successful in its core markets, I think that e-commerce is a rather competitive industry with multiple global market players like Amazon (AMZN) and Alibaba's (BABA) Lazada. These are e-commerce players that are established and have strong financials that can compete meaningfully with Shopee if they decide to go on a price war to compete in Shopee's core markets. Also we are seeing the rise of new generation platforms like TikTok that may change the landscape of e-commerce as new generations may prefer using TikTok for things like shopping in the future. The risk of competitive pressures from any of these players may threaten Shopee's current leadership position in its core ASEAN and Taiwan markets as well as its Brazil market. As such, I will continue to monitor for any changes in the e-commerce landscape and how that could affect Shopee.</p><h4>Diversifying its gaming segment with new games</h4><p>Sea's Garena is on a mission to find the next blockbuster game that could take over Free Fire. That said, creating a new hit game is not easy and even as Garena has spent much time and effort in creating a steady pipeline of new games, there has yet to be a game that looks to be helping fill the gap that we are seeing with the slowing Free Fire growth. I think the risk remains that Free Fire continues to see slowing growth, while Garena may still be unable to release new games that could help it diversify its games segment.</p><h4>Political and regulatory risks</h4><p>As a result of the Indian authorities ban of Free Fire, this has created a risk that Sea may face other regulatory or political pressures. While Sea is headquartered in Singapore and not controlled by China, I think that there is a risk that other countries may see Sea in a similar way India did. However, I think that the probability of this is quite small and we could even see India rectifying its position on Sea in the future.</p><h4>Synergies that can be reaped across segments</h4><p>As a result of having three business segments like the e-commerce segment, the gaming segment and the fintech segment, Sea has the ability to create a network effect as it continues to see strong user growth on its platforms. Furthermore, the company can also drive scale benefits as it can leverage on its size to improve operating efficiencies. However, if the company does not leverage on its position to reap these synergies, the three segments could act in silos and without demonstrating the true competitive advantage of the platform that Sea has built and the community it has developed over the years.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>I think that there is much negative sentiment around the stock and the key to reversing this sentiment is any signs of improvement in fundamentals or achieving of certain targets set by management. First, I highlighted that we are seeing a stabilisation of Garena as Free Fire trends appear to be heading in the right direction. Second, management looks set to achieve their breakeven targets for Shopee in the core markets of ASEAN and Taiwan. Overall, I think that the worst is over for Sea and we could see positive improvements in the business as well as management commentary in the 3Q22 results coming up.</p><p>My 1-year target price for Sea is $139, which implies an upside of 173% from current levels. I believe that we could see shares move up towards the target price with the 3Q22 results given that there may be several catalysts materialising. As such, I think that the risk/reward is skewed towards the positive at the moment, and recommend to accumulate at current levels.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Sea Limited: Buy Before The Q3 2022 Results With 173% Upside Potential</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\">\nSea Limited: Buy Before The Q3 2022 Results With 173% Upside Potential\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-19 13:16 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4547182-sea-limited-buy-before-the-3q22-results-with-173-percent-upside-potential><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investment thesisI cover Sea Limited extensively, with many articles on the company's fundamentals and valuations, which can be found here.

I continue to like the company as the investment case continues to look compelling:As highlighted before, I thought that the problems that Garena and Free Fire are facing are short-term ones. As evident from the recent Free Fire trends, we can see that the business is stabilising in its key markets. I continue to take the view that Garena will continue to operate as a market leader and play a key and pivotal role in the development of the other segments of Sea as it continues to generate strong cash flows for the business. As we start to see stabilisation in the business, I think we will see re-acceleration in revenues in the near-term as management remains focused on both Free Fire and on generating a pipeline of new games for the future.Shopee continues to dominate in its core markets of ASEAN and Taiwan, where it continues to remain market leader in e-commerce.

He said at the time that the company wouldnât be selling any Bitcoin it holds.</p>\n<p>An outspoken supporter of cryptocurrencies with cult-like following on social media, Musk holds immense sway with his market-moving tweets. He has been touting Dogecoin and significantly elevated the profile of the coin, which started as a joke and now ranks the 5th largest by market value.</p>\n<p>Dogecoin is down 9.6% in the last 24 hours, trading at 47 cents late Sunday afternoon, according to data from CoinMarketCap.com.</p>\n<p>Tesla didnât immediately respond to an email seeking comment on Muskâs tweet on Sunday.</p>\n<p>Muskâs Sunday social-media escapades were the latest chapter in one of the zaniest weeks in a crypto world famous for its wildness. For die hards, the renewed slumps in Bitcoin and other tokens have done nothing to deter crypto enthusiasts who say digital coins could many times their current value if they transform the financial system.</p>\n<p>âWeâre looking at the long-term and so these blips, they donât faze us,â Emilie Choi, president and chief operating officer of crypto exchange Coinbase Global Inc., said last week on Bloomberg TV about the wild swings prevalent in the market. âYouâre looking for the long-term opportunity and you kind of buckle up and go for it.â</p>\n<p>Seat belts were needed by anyone watching the crypto world in the past eight days. Aside from Muskâs antics that sent Doge and Bitcoin on wild rides, a host of other developments pushed around prices.</p>\n<p>Tether, the worldâs largest stablecoin, disclosed a reserves breakdown that showed a large portion in unspecified commercial paper. Steve Cohenâs Point72 Asset Management announced that it would begin trading cryptocurrencies. And a longstanding critique of the space reared its head again: illicit usage.</p>\n<p>It was reported that the owners of the Colonial Pipeline paid a $5 million ransom in untraceable digital currencies to hackers that attacked its infrastructure, while Bloomberg also reported that Binance Holdings Ltd., the worldâs biggest cryptocurrency exchange, was under investigation by the Justice Department and Internal Revenue Service in relation to possible money-laundering and tax offenses.</p>\n<p>But, âfor many crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, the long-term story has not changed,â said Simon Peters, an analyst at multi-asset investment platform eToro. âThis emerging asset class continues to revolutionize many aspects of financial services, and while nothing goes up in a straight line, the long-term fundamentals for crypto assets remain as solid as ever.â</p>\n<p>Bitcoin was already swinging wildly on the weekend before Musk tweeted. The two days tend to be particularly volatile for cryptocurrencies, which -- unlike most traditional assets -- trade around the clock every day of the week. Bitcoinâs average swing on Saturdays and Sundays so far this year comes in at 4.95%.</p>\n<p>That type of volatility is owing to a few factors: Bitcoinâs held by relatively few people, meaning that price swings can be magnified during low-volume periods. And, the market remains hugely fragmented with dozens of platforms operating under different standards. That means cryptocurrencies lack a centralized market structure akin to that of traditional assets.</p>","source":"lsy1612507957220","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>Bitcoin Tumbles After Musk Implies Tesla May Sell Cryptocurrency</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\">\nBitcoin Tumbles After Musk Implies Tesla May Sell Cryptocurrency\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-17 07:37 GMT+8 <a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-implies-tesla-may-sell-192401769.html><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>(Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk continued to whipsaw the price of Bitcoin, briefly sending it to the lowest since February after implying in a Twitter exchange Sunday that Tesla Inc. may sell or has sold its...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-implies-tesla-may-sell-192401769.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"çšćŻć"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-implies-tesla-may-sell-192401769.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1134346216","content_text":"(Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk continued to whipsaw the price of Bitcoin, briefly sending it to the lowest since February after implying in a Twitter exchange Sunday that Tesla Inc. may sell or has sold its cryptocurrency holdings.\nBitcoin slid below $45,000 for the first time in almost three months after the billionaire owner of the electric-car maker seemed to agree with a Twitter post that said Tesla should divest what at one point was a $1.5 billion stake in the largest cryptocurrency.

He said at the time that the company wouldnât be selling any Bitcoin it holds.\nAn outspoken supporter of cryptocurrencies with cult-like following on social media, Musk holds immense sway with his market-moving tweets. He has been touting Dogecoin and significantly elevated the profile of the coin, which started as a joke and now ranks the 5th largest by market value.\nDogecoin is down 9.6% in the last 24 hours, trading at 47 cents late Sunday afternoon, according to data from CoinMarketCap.com.\nTesla didnât immediately respond to an email seeking comment on Muskâs tweet on Sunday.\nMuskâs Sunday social-media escapades were the latest chapter in one of the zaniest weeks in a crypto world famous for its wildness. For die hards, the renewed slumps in Bitcoin and other tokens have done nothing to deter crypto enthusiasts who say digital coins could many times their current value if they transform the financial system.\nâWeâre looking at the long-term and so these blips, they donât faze us,â Emilie Choi, president and chief operating officer of crypto exchange Coinbase Global Inc., said last week on Bloomberg TV about the wild swings prevalent in the market. âYouâre looking for the long-term opportunity and you kind of buckle up and go for it.â\nSeat belts were needed by anyone watching the crypto world in the past eight days. Aside from Muskâs antics that sent Doge and Bitcoin on wild rides, a host of other developments pushed around prices.\nTether, the worldâs largest stablecoin, disclosed a reserves breakdown that showed a large portion in unspecified commercial paper. Steve Cohenâs Point72 Asset Management announced that it would begin trading cryptocurrencies. And a longstanding critique of the space reared its head again: illicit usage.\nIt was reported that the owners of the Colonial Pipeline paid a $5 million ransom in untraceable digital currencies to hackers that attacked its infrastructure, while Bloomberg also reported that Binance Holdings Ltd., the worldâs biggest cryptocurrency exchange, was under investigation by the Justice Department and Internal Revenue Service in relation to possible money-laundering and tax offenses.\nBut, âfor many crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, the long-term story has not changed,â said Simon Peters, an analyst at multi-asset investment platform eToro. âThis emerging asset class continues to revolutionize many aspects of financial services, and while nothing goes up in a straight line, the long-term fundamentals for crypto assets remain as solid as ever.â\nBitcoin was already swinging wildly on the weekend before Musk tweeted. The two days tend to be particularly volatile for cryptocurrencies, which -- unlike most traditional assets -- trade around the clock every day of the week. Bitcoinâs average swing on Saturdays and Sundays so far this year comes in at 4.95%.\nThat type of volatility is owing to a few factors: Bitcoinâs held by relatively few people, meaning that price swings can be magnified during low-volume periods. And, the market remains hugely fragmented with dozens of platforms operating under different standards. That means cryptocurrencies lack a centralized market structure akin to that of traditional assets.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9970267425,"gmtCreate":1684492827668,"gmtModify":1684492831977,"author":{"id":"3576797853255359","authorId":"3576797853255359","name":"LateWizard","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2623f0ebfedf9dedaf6b68dc8fe2f4b8","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576797853255359","authorIdStr":"3576797853255359"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"$Nvda better than $sea","listText":"$Nvda better than $sea","text":"$Nvda better than $sea","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9970267425","repostId":"2336586001","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2336586001","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1684505132,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2336586001?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-05-19 22:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is This The Right Time to Buy Sea Limited Stock?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2336586001","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The Singapore-based tech giant still faces a lot of near-term challenges.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">KEY POINTS</h2><ul><li><p>Sea's first-quarter earnings missed analysts' consensus expectations.</p></li><li><p>Garena's declines continue to offset Shopee's gains.</p></li><li><p>The company's profitability is improving, but its revenue growth remains sluggish.</p></li></ul><p>Share prices of <strong>Sea Limited</strong> fell by 18% on Tuesday after the Singapore-based e-commerce and gaming company posted its first-quarter report.
