POINTS\n\nGameStop missed on the top and bottom lines of its quarterly results, but e-commerce sales jumped 175% last quarter and accounted for more than a third of its sales in the period.\nThe brick-and-mortar video game retailer named former Amazon and Google executive Jenna Owens as its new chief operating officer.\nGameStop also acknowledged in a filing that it was considering selling additional equity shares.\nDuring a much anticipated earnings conference call that at one point reached maximum capacity, the company declined to answer questions.\n\nInvestors finally got a look atGameStop's fundamentals following a Reddit-fueled trading frenzy earlier this year and were left wanting more from the video game retailer.\nHere's what the company announced after the bell Tuesday.\n\nIt released fiscal fourth-quarter results that missedWall Street's estimates on the top and bottom lines.\nIn its latest executive shake-up, the company named former Amazon and Google executive Jenna Owens as its new chief operating officer.\nIn a hint of the transformation that’s got some investors excited about the stock, the company said global e-commerce sales jumped 175% last quarter and accounted for more than a third of its sales in the period.\nGameStop also acknowledged in a filing that it was considering selling additional equity shares to fund its transformation.\nDuring a much anticipated earnings conference call that at one point reached maximum capacity, the company declined to answer questions.\n\nShares tanked 33.8% on Wednesday on the potential share sale and disappointment that a more detailed transformation wasn’t unveiled.\n“The highly anticipated 4Q20 earnings report from GameStop was a bit anti-climatic,” wrote Telsey Advisory Group analyst Joseph Feldman. “While EPS met the consensus, it was completely driven by a tax benefit that offset much worse than expected operating profit. Moreover, while everyone was expecting big news about some massive digital transformation in the mold of the new tech-oriented board members, nothing was said.”\n“In fact, the company did not even take questions on the earnings conference call,” added Feldman. “As for the much anticipated strategic plan, it sounded like every other retailer.”\nFor the fiscal period ended January 2021, GameStop earned $1.34 per share on revenue of $2.12 billion. Wall Street was expecting earnings per share of $1.35 on revenue of $2.21 billion, according to Refinitiv’s average of the six analysts.\nGameStop’s fiscal fourth-quarter earnings typically make up the majority of the company’s yearly earnings, boosted by holiday sales. The company’s same-store sales rose 6.5% last quarter.\nThe company said it is continuing to suspend guidance, but is updating its fulfillment operations to boost the speed of its delivery and services. GameStop CEO George Sherman also revealed that February comparable store sales increased 23%, thanks to strength in hardware sales worldwide.\nAlong with the mania-fueled trading, GameStop’s stock has responded positively on new developments for the company in the past five months like the appointment ofChewyco-founder Ryan Cohen to GameStop’s board and a focus on GameStop’s technology and e-commerce transition.\nGameStop said after the bell that it continues to seek out executive talent with e-commerce, retail and technology expertise to bolster its turnaround. Sherman said on the conference call that GameStop was “focused on transforming into a customer-obsessed technology company that excites gamers.”\nEarlier this month, GameStopannounced it tapped Cohen to lead its shift to e-commerce. He is serving as chairman of a special committee formed by GameStop’s board to help its transformation. Board members Alan Attal, Chewy’s former top operations executive, and Kurt Wolf, chief investment officer of Hestia Capital Management, also serve on the committee.\n\nEarlier this year, an epic short squeeze in the company’s stock shocked Wall Street and drew attention to an emerging class of retail investor on social media platforms like Reddit. GameStop’s share price skyrocketed to $483 per share, and subsequently lost 90% of its value. The controversy drew the attention of Wall Street and Washington.\nGameStop still has a market capitalization of nearly $13 billion through Tuesday’s close, 10 times the $1.3 billion market value the stock had at the end of last year. A year ago, GameStop’s market capitalization was $245 million.\nNaming Owens as COO is the latest in a series of recent personnel moves, but it remains to be seen whether these moves and the sparse detail given Tuesday night will satisfy investors that have bid up the stock to such high levels.\nTelsey’s Feldman lowered his price target on the shares to $30 from $33 following the results. The new target would represent a decline of more than 80% from Tuesday’s close.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GME":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2370,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353767851,"gmtCreate":1616539301373,"gmtModify":1704795327833,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576834314386062","authorIdStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/353767851","repostId":"1102596742","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102596742","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616514133,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102596742?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-23 23:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why SPACs Won’t Replace Traditional IPOs -- and Vice Versa","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102596742","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Will SPACs replace traditional IPOs? I think to a degree, they already have -- at least for now. Lon","content":"<p>Will SPACs replace traditional IPOs? I think to a degree, they already have -- at least for now. Longer-term, however, I think that traditional investment banking will survive, and that there will always be room for both methods of going public.</p>\n<p>Part of why I say that traditional IPOs will survive is due to the sheer abundance of SPACs out there right now. Can they all find winning companies to merge with? What happens to those that don't find the right dance partner? Surely some will wither and die. But at the same time, the SPAC model is probably here to stay since it does simplify and expedite the whole process of going public and raising capital. And so I think that SPACs will survive even once we’re past the current manic stage.</p>\n<p>First, understand that IPOs and SPACs are really just two ways of getting a private company from point A (in need of capital) to point B (capital needs satisfied and trading publicly). As you'll see, it's really a matter of putting the wagon before the horse, or the horse before the wagon. And the same model doesn’t work for every private company in every situation.</p>\n<p><b>The IPO</b></p>\n<p>The traditional IPO, or Initial Public Offering, has been around since the beginning. This is what investment bankers, among other things, do for a living. As a former senior New York Stock Exchange floor trader who worked as part of the IPO team for what was considered the hottest investment bank during the internet bubble of the late 1990's, early 2000's, I have a great deal of experience in both supporting and in running the execution end of traditional IPOs, either from the booth, or in the crowd at the point of sale.</p>\n<p>In simplified form, IPOs involve private companies working with an investment bank or several investment banks to raise capital by “going public.\" The investment banks place a value on the private firm through a strenuous level of fundamental analysis, all the while gauging or trying to drum up demand. That part of the job is often referred to as a \"road show.\"</p>\n<p>The private company must also register with the exchange where it plans to list, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission. There is a lengthy process that must be followed, as well as numerous requirements, such as compliance around transparency in financial reporting, that must be met.</p>\n<p>The investment bank or banks, also known as the underwriters, may guarantee the IPO by purchasing the offering in a firm commitment and then selling the shares themselves in the secondary market. Without this \"firm\" commitment, the IPO is considered to be a \"best effort\" agreement, in which the underwriter sells the shares with no guarantee.</p>\n<p>In my experience, the vast majority of IPOs are indeed “firm commitments” in which the underwriter takes on either the profit or loss (the risk) when selling shares after having priced the IPO. In the case of a \"best effort'' IPO, the investment bank is really more like a broker and advisor than a trader, and passes on to the formerly private company's shareholders the proceeds of those initial sales.</p>\n<p><b>The SPAC</b></p>\n<p>The SPAC, or Special Purpose Acquisition Company, has become increasingly popular lately. Some of you may have heard of \"Blank Check Companies.\" This is another term for basically the same thing as a SPAC. The whole idea is simply to raise funds first and then target private companies to merge with afterwards.</p>\n<p>In this way, the private firm is able to get in position to quickly merge with an already-public company, greatly simplifying the process of going public. At that point, the shareholders or owners of the private company can either redeem their stakes at the offering price, or accept stock in the newly-merged company, depending on their preference.</p>\n<p>Why would a private company choose this route over a traditional IPO? There are several good reasons. The first is speed to market. By foregoing the whole \"road show\" process and merging with an already public firm, the company can now bypass all of the registrations and regulatory requirements. In addition, the risk of allowing investment bankers to price the deal is removed once the merger is agreed to.</p>\n<p>What makes SPACs so attractive to private companies that might be in need of capital? It’s pretty simple --<i>in a traditional IPO, the private company chases the capital, but with a SPAC, the capital chases the private company</i>.</p>\n<p>Notably, the SPAC structure is less risky to the owners of the targeted private company. The private company negotiates and agrees to a deal. Their work is now done, and the risk is transferred to the SPAC. This is great -- if you happen to run a highly sought-after private company in a suddenly hot industry. That is another reason why speed matters. No one ever knows how long the iron (or industry) stays hot.</p>\n<p>Now, for the less highly sought-after private business, there will always be a need for a traditional investment banker since these companies still need to raise capital and will need help finding investors. However, in the IPO model, the workload and the risk are more on the private company than they are on the bank -- at least until the issue is priced and regardless of whether a firm commitment has been made.</p>\n<p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p>\n<p>In my opinion, there will always be room in this marketplace for both traditional investment bankers as well as SPACs. For now, amid a pandemic, which has largely taken the \"road show\" aspect out of the IPO, and as certain industries have taken off seemingly overnight, SPACs have taken as much as half of the market for new issues.</p>\n<p>That is the current environment and it is not only subject to change, it<i>will</i>change. As some SPACs fail to attract potentially hot new private companies, their ranks will thin. In a market that’s tougher than the current bull one, raising money ahead of a deal becomes more difficult, and the pendulum will swing back toward traditional investment bankers who provide access to a broader array of potential investors.</p>\n<p>That said, these are two ways of going about doing the same thing.

I think to a degree, they already have -- at least for now. Longer-term, however, I think that traditional investment banking will survive, and that there will always be room for both methods of going public.\nPart of why I say that traditional IPOs will survive is due to the sheer abundance of SPACs out there right now. Can they all find winning companies to merge with? What happens to those that don't find the right dance partner? Surely some will wither and die. But at the same time, the SPAC model is probably here to stay since it does simplify and expedite the whole process of going public and raising capital. And so I think that SPACs will survive even once we’re past the current manic stage.\nFirst, understand that IPOs and SPACs are really just two ways of getting a private company from point A (in need of capital) to point B (capital needs satisfied and trading publicly). As you'll see, it's really a matter of putting the wagon before the horse, or the horse before the wagon. And the same model doesn’t work for every private company in every situation.\nThe IPO\nThe traditional IPO, or Initial Public Offering, has been around since the beginning. This is what investment bankers, among other things, do for a living. As a former senior New York Stock Exchange floor trader who worked as part of the IPO team for what was considered the hottest investment bank during the internet bubble of the late 1990's, early 2000's, I have a great deal of experience in both supporting and in running the execution end of traditional IPOs, either from the booth, or in the crowd at the point of sale.\nIn simplified form, IPOs involve private companies working with an investment bank or several investment banks to raise capital by “going public.\" The investment banks place a value on the private firm through a strenuous level of fundamental analysis, all the while gauging or trying to drum up demand. That part of the job is often referred to as a \"road show.\"\nThe private company must also register with the exchange where it plans to list, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission. There is a lengthy process that must be followed, as well as numerous requirements, such as compliance around transparency in financial reporting, that must be met.\nThe investment bank or banks, also known as the underwriters, may guarantee the IPO by purchasing the offering in a firm commitment and then selling the shares themselves in the secondary market. Without this \"firm\" commitment, the IPO is considered to be a \"best effort\" agreement, in which the underwriter sells the shares with no guarantee.\nIn my experience, the vast majority of IPOs are indeed “firm commitments” in which the underwriter takes on either the profit or loss (the risk) when selling shares after having priced the IPO. In the case of a \"best effort'' IPO, the investment bank is really more like a broker and advisor than a trader, and passes on to the formerly private company's shareholders the proceeds of those initial sales.\nThe SPAC\nThe SPAC, or Special Purpose Acquisition Company, has become increasingly popular lately. Some of you may have heard of \"Blank Check Companies.\" This is another term for basically the same thing as a SPAC. The whole idea is simply to raise funds first and then target private companies to merge with afterwards.\nIn this way, the private firm is able to get in position to quickly merge with an already-public company, greatly simplifying the process of going public. At that point, the shareholders or owners of the private company can either redeem their stakes at the offering price, or accept stock in the newly-merged company, depending on their preference.\nWhy would a private company choose this route over a traditional IPO? There are several good reasons. The first is speed to market. By foregoing the whole \"road show\" process and merging with an already public firm, the company can now bypass all of the registrations and regulatory requirements. In addition, the risk of allowing investment bankers to price the deal is removed once the merger is agreed to.\nWhat makes SPACs so attractive to private companies that might be in need of capital? It’s pretty simple --in a traditional IPO, the private company chases the capital, but with a SPAC, the capital chases the private company.\nNotably, the SPAC structure is less risky to the owners of the targeted private company. The private company negotiates and agrees to a deal. Their work is now done, and the risk is transferred to the SPAC. This is great -- if you happen to run a highly sought-after private company in a suddenly hot industry. That is another reason why speed matters. No one ever knows how long the iron (or industry) stays hot.\nNow, for the less highly sought-after private business, there will always be a need for a traditional investment banker since these companies still need to raise capital and will need help finding investors. However, in the IPO model, the workload and the risk are more on the private company than they are on the bank -- at least until the issue is priced and regardless of whether a firm commitment has been made.\nThe Bottom Line\nIn my opinion, there will always be room in this marketplace for both traditional investment bankers as well as SPACs. For now, amid a pandemic, which has largely taken the \"road show\" aspect out of the IPO, and as certain industries have taken off seemingly overnight, SPACs have taken as much as half of the market for new issues.\nThat is the current environment and it is not only subject to change, itwillchange. As some SPACs fail to attract potentially hot new private companies, their ranks will thin. In a market that’s tougher than the current bull one, raising money ahead of a deal becomes more difficult, and the pendulum will swing back toward traditional investment bankers who provide access to a broader array of potential investors.\nThat said, these are two ways of going about doing the same thing. Neither is going away. Quality will succeed where success is deserved, and so quality investment bankers will outperform lower-quality SPACs and vice versa. Where quality is less obvious, there will be failure to last, or to find the right dance partner. The route chosen may depend on just how desirable, or choosy, the private company is able to be.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".SPX":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2044,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353930844,"gmtCreate":1616452841388,"gmtModify":1704794200046,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576834314386062","authorIdStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/353930844","repostId":"2121722120","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1849,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":359108450,"gmtCreate":1616371075770,"gmtModify":1704793101045,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576834314386062","authorIdStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/359108450","repostId":"1103756496","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2184,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350846670,"gmtCreate":1616195335290,"gmtModify":1704792016875,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576834314386062","authorIdStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/350846670","repostId":"1106180509","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106180509","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616161534,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106180509?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-19 21:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here Are The Stocks To Watch Ahead Of Today's Quad-Witch Gamma 'Unclenching'","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106180509","media":"zerohedge","summary":"Today's quad-witching options expirations are likely to remove even more potential stabilizing flows","content":"<p>Today's quad-witching options expirations are likely to remove even more potential stabilizing flows from US equity markets as roughly<b>25% of S&amp;P gamma rolls off, with 40% of QQQ and 50% of single stocks</b>.

The San Mateo, Calif.-based videogame provider’s stock will begin trading March 10 on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol RBLX. The shares are trading through a direct listing, bypassing the traditional route of an initial public offering.</p><p>Roblox’s reference price was set at $45, in lieu of a formal IPO price, and is based on recent private-market transactions.</p><p>Roblox&nbsp;isn’t a traditional videogame company&nbsp;and is using a nontraditional process to potentially reach investors as the pandemic&nbsp;has driven people to spend more time and money on gameplay. Here’s what you need to know about the company and its plans for a direct listing.</p><p>Roblox said in the latest update to its&nbsp;prospectus&nbsp;that it paid developers $328.7 million last year, up almost 200% from 2019. That far outpaced the company’s sales growth of 82% last year, when it booked $923.9 million in total revenue.</p><p>More than 1,250 developers earned at least $10,000 in the digital currency Robux, which can be converted to cash. Over 300 earned $100,000 or more.</p><p>Roblox is telling prospective shareholders to get comfortable with its hefty payouts. In its&nbsp;investor presentationlast week, the company said it plans to shell out even more to creators to incentive higher-quality content and fund bigger teams of engineers, designers, artists and producers.</p><p><b>What is Roblox?</b></p><p>Roblox is a free online platform that features tens of millions of multiplayer games made by its own players with tools the company provides. The games range from obstacle-course challenges and iterations of capture the flag to contests based on popular characters such as Peppa Pig and Sonic the Hedgehog. Company officials have said they are interested in increasing the use of Roblox for things such as virtual concerts and meetings.</p><p><b>Who plays Roblox and how?</b></p><p>Roblox is accessible on computers, consoles and mobile devices. The company said it had roughly 33 million daily users last year, of whom more than half are under the age of 13. Players in Roblox appear in the form of customizable avatars.</p><p><b>Roblox’s Covid boom</b></p><p>Roblox has been a huge beneficiary of the Covid-19 shutdowns, which forced kids out of the classroom and away from their friends. With no school to attend and birthday parties canceled,kids turned to Roblox, where they can socialize virtually, navigating theme parks, attending concerts and playing action games while also staying in touch using its popular text chat feature.</p><p>Daily active users jumped 85% in 2020 to 32.6 million. The number of hours that players spent on the app more than doubled to 30.6 billion.</p><p>That unexpected and unprecedented growth has created some challenges around its developer community.

The title of the latest webcast is \"Looking Backward\" although we expect a substantial does of forward looking views and hot takes, including Gundlach's inaugural assessment of the US economy.</p><p>The last time we heard from Gundlach, financials were just starting to take off thanks to surging yields. But that was a much smaller move compared to the action we’ve seen since the start of February. Back then, Gundlach pulled up a chart saying U.S. banks are wearing a “normal scuba vest” whereas their Japanese and European counterparts act as if they have an “aqualung vest.” Why? He says negative interest rates. As we noted earlier,US banksmay be forced to adopt negative rates as soon as April 1.</p><p>As Bloomberg also reminds us, last month Gundlach tweeted that he had been a long-term gold bull and U.S. dollar bear, but has turned neutral on both. Bitcoin may well be the “Stimulus Asset,” he said, a reference to the cryptocurrency’s rally amid a wave of cash pumped into the financial system during the pandemic.</p><p>More recently, he noted the divergence below, with Bitcoin rapidly outpacing both gold and the S&amp;P 500’s gains over the past year, adding ominously, “Great dispersions often precede great reversions.” So will Gundlach announce his full-blown endorsement of the cryptocurrency? Stay tuned to find out.</p><p>We'll update this post with periodic highlights from the webcast.</p><p>Gundlach explains the title of today's webcast “Looking Backward”, which is a nod to a novel written in 1888, and where the protagonist of Edward Bellamy’s socialist-utopian novel goes into a trance in 1887 and awakens in 2000. Gundlach says the novel resembles situations in society today. In the novel the protagonist finds a year 2000 described as having shorter working weeks and equal distribution of goods. In the book, Boston is part of a totally changed world<b>in which the U.S. has been transformed to a socialist utopia, which includes internet and full-benefits retirement at 45.</b></p><p>\"So think about this as we go through some of the slides\" Gundlach said.</p><p>Gundlach starts by showing a chart breaking down the US economy between Nominal GDP, Employment and market cap, with Technology \"monopolies\" clearly dominating.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6d86a5acd7e9160e8b2a42a91a8fbb8\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"331\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">He then shows a chart of US economic growth, saying that despite all the stimulus, the US won't be fully out of the recession until we regain the economic growth rate.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1458baa6baaee75d50c972b886ee8d6e\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"372\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">The DoubleLine CEO then shows just how much bigger the stimulus at $6.1TN is compared to the Great recession's $1.8TN.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/516045afd08fd50ae82a978fdde95bcb\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"375\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Gundlach then uses one of our favorite charts, the one showing that government accounts for a whopping 27% of all personal income.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ce9fab40ea948c42fcd5210c19d71ac\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"373\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Of course, this socialism won't come cheap and the US budget deficit has now hit a record 16.2% of GDP.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9aee67db178ad9fb81d3f8193c83290b\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"372\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Echoing one of our favorite lines, Gundlach says that “<b>80% of the budget is borrowing, so why bother with taxes at all?”</b></p><p>Next, touching on his views on the dollar, Gundlach says that while he has been bullish in recent months, he expects the next move in the dollar to be down after a brief bounce.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17cde4c78c74591d75d05e6cdce3184c\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"376\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Gundlach, who is jumping around like crazy from topic to topic, then slams the \"phony\" 6.2% unemployment rate pointing to the<b>true</b>US unemployment which is far greater than the official 6MM print, as a result of<b>more than 18MM people receiving various forms of unemployment benefits, more than 10% of the entire US labor force.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d1d9ba20c1bc55193038f5ba05f55667\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"371\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Going back to the stock market, Gundlach mentions the “super six” tech stocks again and says it's amazing how high these stocks are valued versus pre-pandemic levels. He then shows surging P/E ratios, saying forward P/E ratios are elevated at 19 but not as high as 1999. Noting that Joe Biden is talking about increased corporate tax rates, Gundlach says P/E ratios could go even higher once that legislation is folded into the valuations.</p><p>Which brings us to one of of Gundlach's most bombastic comments so far. Looking at the tremendous outperformance of mega caps relative to micro caps...</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/384b39b99b7595fa55be0be118a1385c\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"382\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">... and the tremendous gains in the Nasdaq vs SPX, which recently just took out the dot com higher...</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bd718172da3465d2284c1ce5bf09b2dd\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"378\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">... Gundlach warns that the Nasdaq may see a decline like in 2000-2003 and makes a shocking prediction that<b>\"The VIX will go over a 100 during the next downturn.\"</b></p><p>What could cause such a crash? Perhaps inflation - Gundlach notes that he expects headline inflation to be over 3% for a few months this summer on the back of base effect and stimulus.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a63ca8576eb9ee0c0380fc7426c9efc\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"370\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">It could get worse: Gundlach compares CPI to ISM Prices Paid and says that one could plausibly predict headline inflation could rise above 4%. \"That would really spook the bond market.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/11e54fa54d2717c7b96840aab92a11d4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">As a tangent, Gundlach points out something we have frequently noted, namely that buy purchasing massive amounts of TIPS, the Fed is skewing the TIPS and thus breakevens market.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9ae57a886252aa2ced3f27327d0c70be\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"298\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Gundlach then switches to Gold, and referring to yesterday's plunge in the price of gold to $1,680 he says that that could be the low for gold for this cycle.</p><p>He then rapidly shifts to bonds, and saying that while according to German yields, the 10Y is priced correctly...</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4041d3f1be82dd31fc5c19da3f4b55b7\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"377\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">... the gold/copper ratio suggests that the 10Y should be at 3%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47511c3809a87059607e6988e77b7eef\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"375\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Gundlach then looks at the \"<b>bloodbath\"</b>in the long end, and specifically the move in the 30Y, saying it was the largest drawdown since the GFC (charted below), and echoing David Tepper, Gundlach says that \"<b>I’d expect a modest or moderate decline in yields on the long-end. It’s overextended sentiment-wise.\"</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3af0a22364c75f19a4bd2723d22d995a\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"373\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">he DoubleLine CEO then said what most people know, namely that the only marginal buyer of Treasuries in the past couple of years has been the Fed as Foreigners continue to sell Treasury bonds. Gundlach talks about a “lack of robust, organic demand,” and points to the recent catastrophic seven-year Treasury auction as further evidence.</p><p>In short,<b>the \"Magic\" in \"Magic Money Tree\" (or MMT) is and has always been the Fed.</b></p><p>Gundlach concludes on a dismal note, criticizing stimulus programs for giving people who make $150,000 a year a pile of money, and extending his criticism to broader debt monetization saying while bemoaning what he says is a reliance on stimulus programs for growth.</p><p>Warning that people may be starting to believe stimulus is permanent, he says that<b>“The biggest problem is we’ve become totally addicted to these stimulus programs”</b>adding that while<b>\"people may be starting to believe that stimulus is permanent\",</b>he worries that<b>\"we can see some real need for endless stimulus.\"</b></p><p>And yet, in a world where a quarter of all personal income comes from the government, stimulus programs need to be kept going because consumers have been “trained” to rely on them.

The title of the latest webcast is \"Looking Backward\" although we expect a substantial does of forward looking views and hot takes, including Gundlach's inaugural assessment of the US economy.The last time we heard from Gundlach, financials were just starting to take off thanks to surging yields. But that was a much smaller move compared to the action we’ve seen since the start of February. Back then, Gundlach pulled up a chart saying U.S. banks are wearing a “normal scuba vest” whereas their Japanese and European counterparts act as if they have an “aqualung vest.” Why? He says negative interest rates. As we noted earlier,US banksmay be forced to adopt negative rates as soon as April 1.As Bloomberg also reminds us, last month Gundlach tweeted that he had been a long-term gold bull and U.S. dollar bear, but has turned neutral on both. Bitcoin may well be the “Stimulus Asset,” he said, a reference to the cryptocurrency’s rally amid a wave of cash pumped into the financial system during the pandemic.More recently, he noted the divergence below, with Bitcoin rapidly outpacing both gold and the S&P 500’s gains over the past year, adding ominously, “Great dispersions often precede great reversions.” So will Gundlach announce his full-blown endorsement of the cryptocurrency? Stay tuned to find out.We'll update this post with periodic highlights from the webcast.Gundlach explains the title of today's webcast “Looking Backward”, which is a nod to a novel written in 1888, and where the protagonist of Edward Bellamy’s socialist-utopian novel goes into a trance in 1887 and awakens in 2000. Gundlach says the novel resembles situations in society today. In the novel the protagonist finds a year 2000 described as having shorter working weeks and equal distribution of goods. In the book, Boston is part of a totally changed worldin which the U.S. has been transformed to a socialist utopia, which includes internet and full-benefits retirement at 45.\"So think about this as we go through some of the slides\" Gundlach said.Gundlach starts by showing a chart breaking down the US economy between Nominal GDP, Employment and market cap, with Technology \"monopolies\" clearly dominating.He then shows a chart of US economic growth, saying that despite all the stimulus, the US won't be fully out of the recession until we regain the economic growth rate.The DoubleLine CEO then shows just how much bigger the stimulus at $6.1TN is compared to the Great recession's $1.8TN.Gundlach then uses one of our favorite charts, the one showing that government accounts for a whopping 27% of all personal income.Of course, this socialism won't come cheap and the US budget deficit has now hit a record 16.2% of GDP.Echoing one of our favorite lines, Gundlach says that “80% of the budget is borrowing, so why bother with taxes at all?”Next, touching on his views on the dollar, Gundlach says that while he has been bullish in recent months, he expects the next move in the dollar to be down after a brief bounce.Gundlach, who is jumping around like crazy from topic to topic, then slams the \"phony\" 6.2% unemployment rate pointing to thetrueUS unemployment which is far greater than the official 6MM print, as a result ofmore than 18MM people receiving various forms of unemployment benefits, more than 10% of the entire US labor force.Going back to the stock market, Gundlach mentions the “super six” tech stocks again and says it's amazing how high these stocks are valued versus pre-pandemic levels. He then shows surging P/E ratios, saying forward P/E ratios are elevated at 19 but not as high as 1999. Noting that Joe Biden is talking about increased corporate tax rates, Gundlach says P/E ratios could go even higher once that legislation is folded into the valuations.Which brings us to one of of Gundlach's most bombastic comments so far. Looking at the tremendous outperformance of mega caps relative to micro caps...... and the tremendous gains in the Nasdaq vs SPX, which recently just took out the dot com higher...... Gundlach warns that the Nasdaq may see a decline like in 2000-2003 and makes a shocking prediction that\"The VIX will go over a 100 during the next downturn.\"What could cause such a crash? Perhaps inflation - Gundlach notes that he expects headline inflation to be over 3% for a few months this summer on the back of base effect and stimulus.It could get worse: Gundlach compares CPI to ISM Prices Paid and says that one could plausibly predict headline inflation could rise above 4%. \"That would really spook the bond market.\"As a tangent, Gundlach points out something we have frequently noted, namely that buy purchasing massive amounts of TIPS, the Fed is skewing the TIPS and thus breakevens market.Gundlach then switches to Gold, and referring to yesterday's plunge in the price of gold to $1,680 he says that that could be the low for gold for this cycle.He then rapidly shifts to bonds, and saying that while according to German yields, the 10Y is priced correctly...... the gold/copper ratio suggests that the 10Y should be at 3%.Gundlach then looks at the \"bloodbath\"in the long end, and specifically the move in the 30Y, saying it was the largest drawdown since the GFC (charted below), and echoing David Tepper, Gundlach says that \"I’d expect a modest or moderate decline in yields on the long-end. It’s overextended sentiment-wise.\"he DoubleLine CEO then said what most people know, namely that the only marginal buyer of Treasuries in the past couple of years has been the Fed as Foreigners continue to sell Treasury bonds. Gundlach talks about a “lack of robust, organic demand,” and points to the recent catastrophic seven-year Treasury auction as further evidence.In short,the \"Magic\" in \"Magic Money Tree\" (or MMT) is and has always been the Fed.Gundlach concludes on a dismal note, criticizing stimulus programs for giving people who make $150,000 a year a pile of money, and extending his criticism to broader debt monetization saying while bemoaning what he says is a reliance on stimulus programs for growth.Warning that people may be starting to believe stimulus is permanent, he says that“The biggest problem is we’ve become totally addicted to these stimulus programs”adding that while\"people may be starting to believe that stimulus is permanent\",he worries that\"we can see some real need for endless stimulus.\"And yet, in a world where a quarter of all personal income comes from the government, stimulus programs need to be kept going because consumers have been “trained” to rely on them. Hammering the point that people could become dependent on these stimulus programs, he said that this is something that tends to be associated more with Europe than the U.S, and warns that we could be seeing a “neverending” aid regime stateside.Welcome to socialism with American characteristics - perpetual universal basic income for everyone, courtesy of a reserve currency... while it lasts. Because as Gundlach warns, China is doing everything in its power (both economic and military) to replace the US as a global hegemon.One final point Gundlach made is that while bond vigilantes can overcome the Fed's effort to keep yields low, the central bank would then launch Yield Curve Control. That said, the Fed isn’t yet at the point where it would implement YCC:“There’s a pretty good shot that they’ll let the 10-year yield go above 2% before they do anything about it.\"And in response to a question of what is the world's cheapest asset right now, his answer:farmland.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".SPX":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"SPY":0.9,".IXIC":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":893,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3558581504257803","authorId":"3558581504257803","name":"Kelvinyoon26","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17c18f026fcaa77f437cb20f39e1b4ef","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3558581504257803","authorIdStr":"3558581504257803"},"content":"Good.. buy more","text":"Good.. buy more","html":"Good.. buy more"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320886840,"gmtCreate":1615079373880,"gmtModify":1704778485238,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576834314386062","authorIdStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Liked","listText":"Liked","text":"Liked","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/320886840","repostId":"1169596583","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1169596583","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1614958557,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1169596583?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-05 23:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir plunged more than 13%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1169596583","media":"老虎资讯综合","summary":"(March 5)&nbsp;Palantir plunged more than 13%.","content":"<p>(March 5)&nbsp;Palantir plunged more than 13%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13f756ec57cca85c31b6be070941d7c1\" tg-width=\"1059\" tg-height=\"499\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Moreover, while everyone was expecting big news about some massive digital transformation in the mold of the new tech-oriented board members, nothing was said.”\n“In fact, the company did not even take questions on the earnings conference call,” added Feldman. “As for the much anticipated strategic plan, it sounded like every other retailer.”\nFor the fiscal period ended January 2021, GameStop earned $1.34 per share on revenue of $2.12 billion. Wall Street was expecting earnings per share of $1.35 on revenue of $2.21 billion, according to Refinitiv’s average of the six analysts.\nGameStop’s fiscal fourth-quarter earnings typically make up the majority of the company’s yearly earnings, boosted by holiday sales. The company’s same-store sales rose 6.5% last quarter.\nThe company said it is continuing to suspend guidance, but is updating its fulfillment operations to boost the speed of its delivery and services. GameStop CEO George Sherman also revealed that February comparable store sales increased 23%, thanks to strength in hardware sales worldwide.\nAlong with the mania-fueled trading, GameStop’s stock has responded positively on new developments for the company in the past five months like the appointment ofChewyco-founder Ryan Cohen to GameStop’s board and a focus on GameStop’s technology and e-commerce transition.\nGameStop said after the bell that it continues to seek out executive talent with e-commerce, retail and technology expertise to bolster its turnaround. Sherman said on the conference call that GameStop was “focused on transforming into a customer-obsessed technology company that excites gamers.”\nEarlier this month, GameStopannounced it tapped Cohen to lead its shift to e-commerce. He is serving as chairman of a special committee formed by GameStop’s board to help its transformation. Board members Alan Attal, Chewy’s former top operations executive, and Kurt Wolf, chief investment officer of Hestia Capital Management, also serve on the committee.\n\nEarlier this year, an epic short squeeze in the company’s stock shocked Wall Street and drew attention to an emerging class of retail investor on social media platforms like Reddit. GameStop’s share price skyrocketed to $483 per share, and subsequently lost 90% of its value. The controversy drew the attention of Wall Street and Washington.\nGameStop still has a market capitalization of nearly $13 billion through Tuesday’s close, 10 times the $1.3 billion market value the stock had at the end of last year. A year ago, GameStop’s market capitalization was $245 million.\nNaming Owens as COO is the latest in a series of recent personnel moves, but it remains to be seen whether these moves and the sparse detail given Tuesday night will satisfy investors that have bid up the stock to such high levels.\nTelsey’s Feldman lowered his price target on the shares to $30 from $33 following the results. The new target would represent a decline of more than 80% from Tuesday’s close.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"GME":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2370,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":368360249,"gmtCreate":1614292695781,"gmtModify":1704770196938,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3576834314386062","idStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Liked","listText":"Liked","text":"Liked","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/368360249","repostId":"1169851865","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":546,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":325930719,"gmtCreate":1615855979631,"gmtModify":1704787482870,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3576834314386062","idStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"LNS","listText":"LNS","text":"LNS","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325930719","repostId":"1165972444","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2693,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":362269715,"gmtCreate":1614643047637,"gmtModify":1704773380091,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3576834314386062","idStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shared","listText":"Shared","text":"Shared","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/362269715","repostId":"1108903671","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":999,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":361108946,"gmtCreate":1614211316685,"gmtModify":1704889552023,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3576834314386062","idStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Liked","listText":"Liked","text":"Liked","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/361108946","repostId":"1129467108","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129467108","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1614164417,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129467108?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-24 19:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why J.P.

This ﬂow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1999,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321151109,"gmtCreate":1615415851601,"gmtModify":1704782416739,"author":{"id":"3576834314386062","authorId":"3576834314386062","name":"Snow19","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3576834314386062","idStr":"3576834314386062"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321151109","repostId":"1158871795","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158871795","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"为用户提供金融资讯、行情、数据，旨在帮助投资者理解世界，做投资决策。","home_visible":1,"media_name":"老虎资讯综合","id":"102","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1615401200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158871795?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-11 02:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Roblox spikes 44% on its first day of trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158871795","media":"老虎资讯综合","summary":"Roblox shares opened at $65 each on Wednesday, about 44% higher than the company’sreference price.Ro","content":"<p>Roblox shares opened at $65 each on Wednesday, about 44% higher than the company’sreference price.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f1ba476c7f20db1e462a62e6f1df9db8\" tg-width=\"1847\" tg-height=\"904\"></p><p>Roblox Corp.  joins the ranks of closely held companies turning to public markets to support growth.
