Usually, a customer first engages with Apple through an iPhone. Then, as every other piece of hardware the company offers is seamlessly integrated with the iPhone, the customer will most likely elect an Apple product rather than a competitor&#39;s substitute offering, despite Apple&#39;s products being typically more expensive. The customer will elect to do so not only because of the individual quality of the product by itself but also due to the value of integration between all of the customer&#39;s Apple products. In addition to the hardware, the customer will most likely choose to use Apple&#39;s services, as they are the most convenient option and sometimes the only option when using Apple&#39;s hardware.</blockquote><h4>Approaching 1 Billion Subscribers, Another All-Time High In Active Devices</h4><p>Within Apple&#39;s ecosystem, I listed two major metrics to look at in order to assess the strength of the company&#39;s ecosystem. The first, Active Devices Installed Base, reached an all-time high in Q2, but we didn&#39;t get a number update from management (they typically provide a number in the first quarter of Apple&#39;s fiscal year).</p><blockquote>During the quarter, our installed base of active devices continued to grow at a nice pace thanks to extremely high levels of customer satisfaction and loyalty, and reached an all-time high for all major product categories and geographic segments. --- Luca Maestri, Senior Vice President &amp; CFO, Q2-23 Call</blockquote><p>The second metric, Paid Subscribers, gained an additional 40 million in the quarter, and ended at 975 million, reflecting 24.2% growth from the prior year period.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/186f7b3f9026d21c94c7c8de41e772e9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"437\"/></p><p>Created by the author based on management remarks in Apple&#39;s earning calls 2016-2023</p><p>As we can see, Paid Subscriber growth is accelerating, defeating the law of large numbers. In Q1-23, we saw 19.1% growth, and in 2022 we saw 20.8% growth. What does that tell us? well, first of all, it&#39;s clear that Apple&#39;s services business isn&#39;t slowing down, despite what some market participants suggested prior to the Q2 announcement. Secondly, it appears that new launches like Apple Music Classical, Apple Pay Later, and Apple Card Savings, are very well accepted by customers.</p><blockquote>We achieved all time revenue records across App Store, Apple Music, iCloud and payment services. And now, with more than 975 million paid subscriptions, we&#39;re reaching even more people with our lineup of services. --- Tim Cook - Chief Executive Officer, Q2-23 Call</blockquote><p>Overall, it seems our investment thesis remains solid. Looking at the above two metrics alone, I think even the most stubborn bears will have to acknowledge Q2-23 was extremely impressive.</p><h2>No More Growth? I Beg To Differ</h2><p>One of the easiest claims against investing in Apple is that the company&#39;s growth is limited as its total addressable market (TAM) is already saturated. After two consecutive quarters of negative revenue growth, and with 2 billion active devices compared to the world&#39;s population of 8 billion, it&#39;s hard to refute such a claim. However, let&#39;s give it a try.</p><p>As we noted earlier, in the two negative growth quarters, constant currency was a major headwind, and without it, we would have seen 2.5% growth in each of the quarters. This is significantly higher than the overall consumer electronics market. Even if we take out Services revenues, Apple was still able to outgrow peers like HP (HPQ), Microsoft&#39;s devices (MSFT), and Samsung&#39;s SDC (OTCPK:SSNLF), which saw their comparable segments decline by 19%, 30%, and 17%, respectively.</p><p>That being said, we have to face the truth, some of Apple&#39;s markets are, in fact, saturated. For example, in the U.S., the company&#39;s share of the smartphone market is estimated at 57.0% and, 87% of U.S. teens already own an iPhone. As I wrote in my previous article, the life cycle of an iPhone is longer than a year for most consumers, and while we can rely on most of the customers to come back, bi-annual or longer upgrades aren&#39;t a significant enough driver for future growth. With the exception of an extremely unique iPhone edition that comes to market once in a few years and delivers growth acceleration even in saturated markets, we will have to look somewhere else for growth.</p><p>That somewhere else, in my view, is the combination of emerging markets and services.</p><h3>Emerging Markets Focus</h3><p>Most of us are familiar with Apple&#39;s intentions to diversify its supply and production chains to lower its exposure to China, with India being a leading candidate for that. Somewhat under the radar, is Apple&#39;s focus on diversifying its customer markets, and increasing its market share in what the company defines as emerging markets.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e828b29a31fe55472f9415d3d10db07\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\"/></p><p>Created and calculated by the author using data from Apple&#39;s financial reports</p><p>Back in 2012, approximately 60% of Apple&#39;s revenues came from Europe and the Americas. In the first half of FY23, we can see that only 55.4% of revenues were attributable to those geographies, as China and the Rest of Asia Pacific took 5.6 percentage points.</p><p>While China&#39;s share of revenues is below its peak, the Rest of APAC is now in a hyper-growth phase. Since 2018, the Rest of APAC cohort outperformed other geographies by a significant margin, which reached a tipping point during the last quarter, as the Rest of APAC grew by 15.3%, while Apple&#39;s total revenues decreased by 2.5%.</p><p>Fueled by the two retail locations that opened in India during the quarter, Apple saw record sales in India, as well as other developed and emerging markets in Indonesia, Turkey, Mexico, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Brazil, Malaysia, and the UAE.</p><p>It&#39;s clear that Apple is shifting focus towards emerging markets, where its presence is still extremely low. Just a few days ago, the company announced its first online store in Vietnam.</p><p>Although it&#39;s still a small cohort compared to the overall business and with a relatively lower price level, I find the potential in emerging markets significant. First, there are a whole lot of potential new customers in India, with the country&#39;s economy projected to become the third-largest in the world by 2027. Secondly, we already know that Apple&#39;s business from its customers doesn&#39;t end with a single product purchase. On the contrary, it&#39;s after the first transaction that the customer gets into the ecosystem, and then, usually, he becomes a lifetime customer.</p><h3>Services</h3><p>So if the first growth driver is a little under the radar, Apple&#39;s services are probably on the opposite end of the scale. The company&#39;s services seem to be making a lot of headlines these days, specifically due to the launches of many financial offerings like Apple Savings during the regional banking crisis.</p><p>Looking at Apple&#39;s PE ratio, we can clearly see the company has been trading at much higher multiples since 2019:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a24456a4b49c697b19a15cf5bce8f59\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p>Some people would argue this is a testament to its overvaluation, but in my view, Apple&#39;s services becoming almost 20% of the company has a lot to do with the multiple expansion.</p><p>Under services, Apple includes advertising (app store and traffic acquisition costs), cloud, digital content (books, music, video, games, podcasts, tv, news, and fitness), AppleCare (technical support, and repair &amp; replacement services), and Apple&#39;s payment services (Apple Pay, Apple Card, Apple Pay Later). Those combine for approximately 20.0% of Apple&#39;s revenues, and a little over 32% of the company&#39;s gross profits.</p><p>Unlike the market saturation on the product front, it seems Apple&#39;s services are still in their early days. We saw growth acceleration in paid subscribers, with a 24.2% increase YoY, and services revenues grew by 5.5%, despite a 5.0% FX headwind.</p><p>Growth in services was even more impressive considering the slowdown in mobile gaming, which is mainly a result of pulled-forward demand during the pandemic. Additionally, Apple, like most advertisers, is experiencing headwinds due to the macroeconomic environment. Despite that, the company achieved a March quarter record in advertising.</p><h4>Apple Financial Services</h4><p>It has become obvious that Apple is one of the largest financial services companies in the world, with its Apple Pay, Apple Card Savings, and Apple Pay Later, among others.</p><p>Apple Pay is constantly expanding its offerings and has now become the preferred way to pay for many:</p><blockquote>And tap-to-pay continues to be a powerful driver of engagement. Globally, 74% of all face-to-face transactions outside the U.S. are now taps. In the U.S., we&#39;re at 34%, up 7x from three years ago and up more than 10 percentage points from last year. --- Ryan McInerney, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a>&#39;s CEO, Visa Q2-23 Earnings Call.</blockquote><p>Moreover, Apple made waves in the banking system with its 4.15% APY savings account. The question that arises following these industry-leading APY is whether Apple uses its financial services as a way to strengthen the ecosystem, or is it a standalone business opportunity, and to that, Tim Cook answered the following:</p><blockquote>Q: You launched so many services around Apple Pay most recently, you mentioned Buy Now Pay Later high yield savings account. Where do you see the expansion and the payments ecosystem over time? And do you look at the payments ecosystem as a standalone revenue opportunity? Or is it more about making the devices even more inseparable from us? --- Wamsi Mohan, Bank of America A: What we&#39;re trying to do with our payments work is that sort of like we&#39;ve done on the watch, where we&#39;re focused on helping people live a healthier day on our financial products. We&#39;re helping people have a better financial health and so things like the Apple Card and the fact that it has no fees, like the savings account, which has, as you mentioned, it&#39;s very attractive yield. So we&#39;re trying to help our users, but <strong>these things have to stand on their own, obviously</strong>. But we&#39;re very user focused, and so we&#39;re listening to them at what things provide them pinch points and orchestrate our roadmaps around that. Buy Now Pay Later is another one that we&#39;ve just gotten out of the shoot. But on the savings account specifically, we are very pleased with the initial response on it. It&#39;s been incredible. --- Tim Cook - Chief Executive Officer, Q2-23 Call</blockquote><p>In my view, Tim Cook&#39;s answer shows not only the fact that Apple&#39;s financial services are profitable on their own, but it also represents Apple&#39;s overall vision and strategy. Each and every service and product provide added value to the other, but each and every service and product can stand on its own, just as well.</p><h4>Traffic Acquisition Costs - The Most Important &#34;Service&#34;</h4><p>Another important topic to discuss under services is traffic acquisition costs (TAC). For some reason, I saw that some market participants project TAC to decrease. Now, I&#39;m not sure whether that was aimed at making headlines, or that was an actual projection, but I have to say I have the utmost certainty TAC is only going to increase, specifically due to the reignition of the search wars between Alphabet&#39;s Google (GOOG) and Microsoft.</p><p>According to most estimates, Google pays Apple around $17.5B per year for the right to be the default search engine on Apple&#39;s devices. The most quoted analysis was made by Goldman Sachs, which estimated the number at $9.5B in 2018, a year that Google&#39;s total TAC amounted to $26.7B. So, 35.5% of Google&#39;s TAC, which amounted to $48.9B in 2022, means $17.4B that Apple received from the search giant for that year. With more than 1 billion active iPhones, this &#34;real estate&#34; is one of the most expensive properties in the world. As we&#39;re already hearing about Microsoft eyeing a Firefox search deal, it would be a shocker if Apple wouldn&#39;t exploit this situation to its advantage.</p><p>With so much going in its favor, and because FX, gaming, and ads are all temporary headwinds that should start to ease already in the second half of the fiscal year, I project Apple&#39;s service revenues will see growth accelerate in the very near term.</p><h2>Updated Valuation</h2><p>I used a discounted cash flow methodology to evaluate Apple&#39;s fair value. I forecast Apple will grow revenues at a 5.9% CAGR between 2023-2030, based on steady growth in the company&#39;s core operations, and accelerated growth in emerging markets and services. My projection is in line with the consensus but significantly below Apple&#39;s past 7-year CAGR of 10.6%.</p><p>I project EBITDA margins will increase incrementally up to 34.8% in 2030, as the services portion of total revenues continues to grow. I find this projection conservative, as the company achieved a 33.1% EBITDA margin in 2022, a year in which it had a 43.3% gross margin, which is 1.2% below management&#39;s guidance for 2023. Thus, I believe the company is already capable of a margin that is around 34.3%.</p><p>Overall, my assumptions result in EBITDA growth slightly above revenue growth, reflecting operational leverage and a better mix.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b149a6b1bac44d45c18f58241add7690\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\"/></p><p>Created and calculated by the author based on data from Apple&#39;s financial reports and the author&#39;s projections</p><p>Taking a WACC of 7.2%, I estimate Apple&#39;s fair value at $192 per share, which represents an 11.1% upside compared to the market price at the time of writing. This valuation reflects an arguably high forward P/E multiple of 24.9 based on my EPS projection for 2024. However, today&#39;s Apple isn&#39;t the old Apple. Its historical average P/E ratio reflects a product company, whereas the services side of the business is becoming increasingly important. Additionally, I expect 2024 will be a remarkable year for the company, as it will have easier comparisons and temporary headwinds should evaporate.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Apple&#39;s unstoppable ecosystem continued to gain strength in Q2-23, with over 2 billion active devices, above 1 billion active iPhones, and 975 million paid subscribers. Time and time again, Apple bears find their claims defeated by the world&#39;s largest company. As Apple constantly expands its offerings, the company is staying true to its strategy. Each and every product and service should add value to the other, and each and every product and service should be accretive to the company&#39;s profits. For these reasons, I reiterate a Buy rating and raise my price target to $192 per share.</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>Apple: 1 Billion Paying Subscribers And Emerging Markets Focus</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\">\nApple: 1 Billion Paying Subscribers And Emerging Markets Focus\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-05-15 14:49 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4604272-apple-stock-1-billion-paying-subscribers-and-emerging-markets-focus><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple Inc.

As I wrote in my previous article, the life cycle of an iPhone is longer than a year for most consumers, and while we can rely on most of the customers to come back, bi-annual or longer upgrades aren't a significant enough driver for future growth. With the exception of an extremely unique iPhone edition that comes to market once in a few years and delivers growth acceleration even in saturated markets, we will have to look somewhere else for growth.That somewhere else, in my view, is the combination of emerging markets and services.Emerging Markets FocusMost of us are familiar with Apple's intentions to diversify its supply and production chains to lower its exposure to China, with India being a leading candidate for that. Somewhat under the radar, is Apple's focus on diversifying its customer markets, and increasing its market share in what the company defines as emerging markets.Created and calculated by the author using data from Apple's financial reportsBack in 2012, approximately 60% of Apple's revenues came from Europe and the Americas. In the first half of FY23, we can see that only 55.4% of revenues were attributable to those geographies, as China and the Rest of Asia Pacific took 5.6 percentage points.While China's share of revenues is below its peak, the Rest of APAC is now in a hyper-growth phase. Since 2018, the Rest of APAC cohort outperformed other geographies by a significant margin, which reached a tipping point during the last quarter, as the Rest of APAC grew by 15.3%, while Apple's total revenues decreased by 2.5%.Fueled by the two retail locations that opened in India during the quarter, Apple saw record sales in India, as well as other developed and emerging markets in Indonesia, Turkey, Mexico, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Brazil, Malaysia, and the UAE.It's clear that Apple is shifting focus towards emerging markets, where its presence is still extremely low. Just a few days ago, the company announced its first online store in Vietnam.Although it's still a small cohort compared to the overall business and with a relatively lower price level, I find the potential in emerging markets significant. First, there are a whole lot of potential new customers in India, with the country's economy projected to become the third-largest in the world by 2027. Secondly, we already know that Apple's business from its customers doesn't end with a single product purchase. On the contrary, it's after the first transaction that the customer gets into the ecosystem, and then, usually, he becomes a lifetime customer.ServicesSo if the first growth driver is a little under the radar, Apple's services are probably on the opposite end of the scale. The company's services seem to be making a lot of headlines these days, specifically due to the launches of many financial offerings like Apple Savings during the regional banking crisis.Looking at Apple's PE ratio, we can clearly see the company has been trading at much higher multiples since 2019:Data by YChartsSome people would argue this is a testament to its overvaluation, but in my view, Apple's services becoming almost 20% of the company has a lot to do with the multiple expansion.Under services, Apple includes advertising (app store and traffic acquisition costs), cloud, digital content (books, music, video, games, podcasts, tv, news, and fitness), AppleCare (technical support, and repair & replacement services), and Apple's payment services (Apple Pay, Apple Card, Apple Pay Later). Those combine for approximately 20.0% of Apple's revenues, and a little over 32% of the company's gross profits.Unlike the market saturation on the product front, it seems Apple's services are still in their early days. We saw growth acceleration in paid subscribers, with a 24.2% increase YoY, and services revenues grew by 5.5%, despite a 5.0% FX headwind.Growth in services was even more impressive considering the slowdown in mobile gaming, which is mainly a result of pulled-forward demand during the pandemic. Additionally, Apple, like most advertisers, is experiencing headwinds due to the macroeconomic environment. Despite that, the company achieved a March quarter record in advertising.Apple Financial ServicesIt has become obvious that Apple is one of the largest financial services companies in the world, with its Apple Pay, Apple Card Savings, and Apple Pay Later, among others.Apple Pay is constantly expanding its offerings and has now become the preferred way to pay for many:And tap-to-pay continues to be a powerful driver of engagement. Globally, 74% of all face-to-face transactions outside the U.S. are now taps. In the U.S., we're at 34%, up 7x from three years ago and up more than 10 percentage points from last year. --- Ryan McInerney, Visa's CEO, Visa Q2-23 Earnings Call.Moreover, Apple made waves in the banking system with its 4.15% APY savings account. The question that arises following these industry-leading APY is whether Apple uses its financial services as a way to strengthen the ecosystem, or is it a standalone business opportunity, and to that, Tim Cook answered the following:Q: You launched so many services around Apple Pay most recently, you mentioned Buy Now Pay Later high yield savings account. Where do you see the expansion and the payments ecosystem over time? And do you look at the payments ecosystem as a standalone revenue opportunity? Or is it more about making the devices even more inseparable from us? --- Wamsi Mohan, Bank of America A: What we're trying to do with our payments work is that sort of like we've done on the watch, where we're focused on helping people live a healthier day on our financial products. We're helping people have a better financial health and so things like the Apple Card and the fact that it has no fees, like the savings account, which has, as you mentioned, it's very attractive yield. So we're trying to help our users, but these things have to stand on their own, obviously. But we're very user focused, and so we're listening to them at what things provide them pinch points and orchestrate our roadmaps around that. Buy Now Pay Later is another one that we've just gotten out of the shoot. But on the savings account specifically, we are very pleased with the initial response on it. It's been incredible. --- Tim Cook - Chief Executive Officer, Q2-23 CallIn my view, Tim Cook's answer shows not only the fact that Apple's financial services are profitable on their own, but it also represents Apple's overall vision and strategy. Each and every service and product provide added value to the other, but each and every service and product can stand on its own, just as well.Traffic Acquisition Costs - The Most Important \"Service\"Another important topic to discuss under services is traffic acquisition costs (TAC). For some reason, I saw that some market participants project TAC to decrease. Now, I'm not sure whether that was aimed at making headlines, or that was an actual projection, but I have to say I have the utmost certainty TAC is only going to increase, specifically due to the reignition of the search wars between Alphabet's Google (GOOG) and Microsoft.According to most estimates, Google pays Apple around $17.5B per year for the right to be the default search engine on Apple's devices. The most quoted analysis was made by Goldman Sachs, which estimated the number at $9.5B in 2018, a year that Google's total TAC amounted to $26.7B. So, 35.5% of Google's TAC, which amounted to $48.9B in 2022, means $17.4B that Apple received from the search giant for that year. With more than 1 billion active iPhones, this \"real estate\" is one of the most expensive properties in the world. As we're already hearing about Microsoft eyeing a Firefox search deal, it would be a shocker if Apple wouldn't exploit this situation to its advantage.With so much going in its favor, and because FX, gaming, and ads are all temporary headwinds that should start to ease already in the second half of the fiscal year, I project Apple's service revenues will see growth accelerate in the very near term.Updated ValuationI used a discounted cash flow methodology to evaluate Apple's fair value. I forecast Apple will grow revenues at a 5.9% CAGR between 2023-2030, based on steady growth in the company's core operations, and accelerated growth in emerging markets and services. My projection is in line with the consensus but significantly below Apple's past 7-year CAGR of 10.6%.I project EBITDA margins will increase incrementally up to 34.8% in 2030, as the services portion of total revenues continues to grow. I find this projection conservative, as the company achieved a 33.1% EBITDA margin in 2022, a year in which it had a 43.3% gross margin, which is 1.2% below management's guidance for 2023. Thus, I believe the company is already capable of a margin that is around 34.3%.Overall, my assumptions result in EBITDA growth slightly above revenue growth, reflecting operational leverage and a better mix.Created and calculated by the author based on data from Apple's financial reports and the author's projectionsTaking a WACC of 7.2%, I estimate Apple's fair value at $192 per share, which represents an 11.1% upside compared to the market price at the time of writing. This valuation reflects an arguably high forward P/E multiple of 24.9 based on my EPS projection for 2024. However, today's Apple isn't the old Apple. Its historical average P/E ratio reflects a product company, whereas the services side of the business is becoming increasingly important. Additionally, I expect 2024 will be a remarkable year for the company, as it will have easier comparisons and temporary headwinds should evaporate.ConclusionApple's unstoppable ecosystem continued to gain strength in Q2-23, with over 2 billion active devices, above 1 billion active iPhones, and 975 million paid subscribers. Time and time again, Apple bears find their claims defeated by the world's largest company. As Apple constantly expands its offerings, the company is staying true to its strategy. Each and every product and service should add value to the other, and each and every product and service should be accretive to the company's profits. For these reasons, I reiterate a Buy rating and raise my price target to $192 per share.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":598,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9970348428,"gmtCreate":1684049785865,"gmtModify":1684049790067,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9970348428","repostId":"2335202640","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2335202640","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1684029371,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2335202640?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-05-14 09:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nio Stock: Sell in May and Stay Away","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2335202640","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Nio (NIO) refuses to reduce the price of its vehicles, which could turn out to be a big mistake.Furt","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li><p><strong>Nio</strong> (<strong>NIO</strong>) refuses to reduce the price of its vehicles, which could turn out to be a big mistake.</p></li><li><p>Furthermore, Nio’s April delivery numbers indicate slowing growth.</p></li><li><p>Investors shouldn’t buy NIO stock in May, and might even consider selling it.</p></li></ul><p>At first glance, China-based electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer <strong>Nio’s</strong> (NYSE: <strong>NIO</strong>) April delivery data might seem positive.

If Google&#39;s $70 billion buyback announcement seems big, it is — sort of, VerityData analyst Ali Ragih said.</p><p>&#34;$70 billion is slightly large for them, but not when you compare and adjust market-wide,&#34; he said. &#34;The best way to think about $70 billion is to compare against the market cap because you can better normalize market-wide. $70 billion is equal to 5.2% of the market cap at Google.&#34;</p><p>Likewise, Apple (AAPL) also announced it would buy back $90 billion in stock this week.</p><h2>Why companies buy back stock – and when they should</h2><p>So why do these companies do stock buybacks? </p><p>&#34;Repurchases have more flexibility than dividends,&#34; Guest said. &#34;They&#39;re easier to temporarily cut during downtime, and repurchasing shares reduces the amount of cash that could be misused on management&#39;s pet projects.&#34;</p><p>Another reason, Guest added, is that &#34;managers and others — the board, for example — can use repurchased shares to compensate employees. So those seem to be the benefits, as opposed to improving long-term profitability or creating additional investment opportunities.&#34;</p><p>It&#39;s worth doing buybacks when management thinks the company&#39;s valuation is low, Ragih said.</p><p>&#34;The best time to do a buyback is when the valuation is low because companies get the most bang for their buyback,&#34; he told Yahoo Finance. &#34;If Google spends $15 billion, they’d want to get the most amount of shares for that $15 billion – lower stock price will get them more shares for the same overall dollar value of spend.&#34;</p><p>It&#39;s even more worthwhile if the company in question has the cash, which Alphabet does, Ragih added.</p><p>&#34;Google has a high amount of free cash flow and not much else to spend it on, so it’s appropriate to return cash to shareholders,&#34; he said. &#34;To boil it down, after they pay for organic investments, they still have a lot of cash left each quarter.

But they might be misunderstood, according to Cornell University assistant professor Nick Guest.\"Our main takeaway is that share buybacks don't create or destroy a lot of wealth,\" Guest told Yahoo Finance Live. \"So you might wonder, 'Well, why are companies repurchasing on track for more than $1 trillion this year?' The benefits seem to be an opportunity for management to signal that they believe the stock is undervalued.\" There are plenty of criticisms of buybacks, including that companies use them to manipulate their share prices. But those criticisms haven't been necessarily proven by the data, according to Guest. \"Some argue they're associated with excessive executive compensation and that companies that buy back don't have as much cash available to take advantage of investment opportunities, thereby sacrificing growth and ultimately profitability,\" he said. \"But our evidence comparing both companies that repurchased and companies that don't repurchase shares didn't find any large-scale, on average, evidence of those things.\"Some of the biggest buyback news of this earnings cycle came from Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL). If Google's $70 billion buyback announcement seems big, it is — sort of, VerityData analyst Ali Ragih said.\"$70 billion is slightly large for them, but not when you compare and adjust market-wide,\" he said. \"The best way to think about $70 billion is to compare against the market cap because you can better normalize market-wide. $70 billion is equal to 5.2% of the market cap at Google.\"Likewise, Apple (AAPL) also announced it would buy back $90 billion in stock this week.Why companies buy back stock – and when they shouldSo why do these companies do stock buybacks? \"Repurchases have more flexibility than dividends,\" Guest said. \"They're easier to temporarily cut during downtime, and repurchasing shares reduces the amount of cash that could be misused on management's pet projects.\"Another reason, Guest added, is that \"managers and others — the board, for example — can use repurchased shares to compensate employees. So those seem to be the benefits, as opposed to improving long-term profitability or creating additional investment opportunities.\"It's worth doing buybacks when management thinks the company's valuation is low, Ragih said.\"The best time to do a buyback is when the valuation is low because companies get the most bang for their buyback,\" he told Yahoo Finance. \"If Google spends $15 billion, they’d want to get the most amount of shares for that $15 billion – lower stock price will get them more shares for the same overall dollar value of spend.\"It's even more worthwhile if the company in question has the cash, which Alphabet does, Ragih added.\"Google has a high amount of free cash flow and not much else to spend it on, so it’s appropriate to return cash to shareholders,\" he said. \"To boil it down, after they pay for organic investments, they still have a lot of cash left each quarter. The cash balance is about $100 billion so they defer to buybacks.\"However, buyback backlash has increased in recent years. Critics say that they enrich companies and executives without improving the overall economy. So over time, shareholders may see fewer buybacks if that trend continues. \"If the disincentives increase — for example, if we get this 4% tax or other limits on what managers can do in terms of selling their own shares after the company has bought back shares, and other potential restrictions — then some firms might decide to retain the cash instead or switch to dividends, which both could have negative consequences,\" Guest said. \"For example, dividends, as we know, are taxed as income tax, ... whereas repurchases typically generate a capital gain.

Today, it&#39;s more than $685 billion. What&#39;s behind the nearly 100x increase in value? In short, Nvidia is one of the driving forces behind today&#39;s -- <em>and tomorrow&#39;s</em> -- cutting-edge technology.</p><p>Nvidia&#39;s graphics and mobile processors have already found a home in PCs, gaming devices, workstations, data centers, and mobile devices. There is, however, so much more room to grow.</p><p>Secular growth trends, such as artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous driving, and cloud computing, will keep Nvidia&#39;s products in high demand for years to come. After all, Nvidia&#39;s chips are often the brain behind the coolest new feature or device -- whether that&#39;s better graphics on a gaming console, a smarter AI, or an innovative safety feature in an automobile.</p><p>And that&#39;s part of why Wall Street analysts remain so bullish on Nvidia. Despite having grown revenue at an average rate of 24% over the last 10 years, analysts expect the blistering growth to persist, with 11.5% revenue growth for this year and 24.5% the year after.</p><p>With that type of growth, it&#39;s reasonable to think Nvidia&#39;s stock could easily rise 50% from its current level. That would bring the company&#39;s overall market cap to $1.027 trillion -- joining the likes of <strong>Apple</strong>, <strong>Microsoft</strong>, <strong>Alphabet</strong>, and <strong>Amazon</strong> in the Trillion dollar club.</p><h2>Don&#39;t count out this &#34;unknown&#34; tech giant</h2><p><strong>Will Healy</strong> <strong>(ASML): </strong>Given the hype surrounding better-known semiconductor stocks, Netherlands-based <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ASML\">ASML</a> describes itself as the &#34;most important tech company you&#39;ve never heard of&#34; due to its role in the chip industry.</p><p>It leads its industry in extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV), the technology that powers the world&#39;s most advanced chip manufacturing processes. Companies like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSMC\">Taiwan Semiconductor</a> and Samsung cannot produce their most powerful chips without ASML&#39;s EUV technology, giving ASML a competitive advantage over peers such as <strong>Lam Research</strong> and <strong>Applied Materials</strong>.</p><p>At a market cap of just over $250 billion, it will have to double in value twice over the next seven years for its market cap to reach $1 trillion. However, TSMC, Samsung, and <strong>Intel</strong> have pledged hundreds of billions of dollars to construct additional fabs to power the latest technology and diversify the manufacturing base away from Taiwan.</p><p>Due to this rising demand for EUV machines, the company expects annual revenue to grow to between 44 billion euros and 60 billion euros ($48 billion to $66 billion) by 2030. This means considerable growth compared to the 21 billion euros ($23 billion) in revenue ASML generated in 2022. Still, the 6.7 billion euros ($7.4 billion) in revenue for the first quarter of 2023 indicates it is well on its way to meeting that 2030 revenue goal.</p><p>Moreover, ASML earned 5.6 billion euros ($6.2 billion) in 2022, more than double the 2.6 billion euros ($2.8 billion) in 2018. The increase in gross margins from 46% to 50.5% during that time considerably boosted its profits, and a 50.6% gross margin in Q1 2023 indicates margin expansions are continuing. Additionally, for 2030, ASML predicts gross margins will rise to the 56% to 60% range, increasing the chances it will double its income at the same or possibly a heightened pace.</p><p>This is significant because doubling its income twice would take its annual earnings to approximately 22 billion euros, or $24 billion, in 2030. At that income level, it must reach a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 42 to attain a $1 trillion market cap. Fortunately for ASML, it now sells for 42 times its earnings, and its P/E ratio often exceeded 50 during the most recent bull market.</p><p>Admittedly, a lot can happen in seven years. But as conditions stand now, rising chip demand means the world needs more of ASML&#39;s technology. If the company can maintain its income growth and valuation until 2030, $1 trillion is within reach.</p><h2>Meta&#39;s ruthless efficiency is good news for your portfolio</h2><p><strong>Justin Pope (Meta Platforms)</strong>: Remember when Wall Street declared <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta</a>&#39;s golden years were over? That Mark Zuckerberg had lost his touch, spending billions on his metaverse projects? You don&#39;t hear that anymore now that shares have risen nearly 80% since the start of 2023. The good news is that Meta isn&#39;t delivering flukey returns. Instead, the market is celebrating the company&#39;s decision to tighten spending, cut costs, and squeeze profits from its dominant family of social media apps.</p><p>Meta has announced multiple rounds of layoffs, shedding roughly 25,000 jobs across three rounds of cuts. The job cuts, combined with some spending reductions, should lower Meta&#39;s total 2023 expenses to $89 billion to $95 billion from $94 billion to $100 billion. While you shouldn&#39;t want Meta going too far and suffocating innovation, it acknowledges that the company had grown bloated.</p><p>This sets the stage for Meta&#39;s family of apps to continue raking in big profits. Monthly users across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp continue growing, increasing 4% year over year in Q4 to 3.74 billion. Political pressure on TikTok has proven a tailwind for Meta&#39;s short-term video product -- Reels activity more than doubled from 2021 to 2022.</p><p>Social media looks like it&#39;s going nowhere, which could continue driving steady earnings growth for Meta. A rebound in Meta&#39;s ad business, continued user growth, monetization from Reels, and future innovations can help grow the bottom line.</p><p>With a market cap of over $500 billion, Meta must double its earnings-per-share (EPS) by 2030 and hold its valuation (which remains very reasonable) to hit a trillion-dollar market cap. Analysts expect nearly 11% annual EPS growth over the next three to five years, so Meta has a very realistic shot of delivering for shareholders.</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>These 3 Hot Tech Names Could Be Trillion-Dollar Stocks by 2030</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\">\nThese 3 Hot Tech Names Could Be Trillion-Dollar Stocks by 2030\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-24 23:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/23/these-3-hot-tech-names-could-be-trillion-dollar-st/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The stock market generally marches higher over time, but the circle of trillion-dollar stocks is still pretty exclusive, an honor just a few companies enjoy.

Today, it's more than $685 billion. What's behind the nearly 100x increase in value? In short, Nvidia is one of the driving forces behind today's -- and tomorrow's -- cutting-edge technology.Nvidia's graphics and mobile processors have already found a home in PCs, gaming devices, workstations, data centers, and mobile devices. There is, however, so much more room to grow.Secular growth trends, such as artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous driving, and cloud computing, will keep Nvidia's products in high demand for years to come. After all, Nvidia's chips are often the brain behind the coolest new feature or device -- whether that's better graphics on a gaming console, a smarter AI, or an innovative safety feature in an automobile.And that's part of why Wall Street analysts remain so bullish on Nvidia. Despite having grown revenue at an average rate of 24% over the last 10 years, analysts expect the blistering growth to persist, with 11.5% revenue growth for this year and 24.5% the year after.With that type of growth, it's reasonable to think Nvidia's stock could easily rise 50% from its current level. That would bring the company's overall market cap to $1.027 trillion -- joining the likes of Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon in the Trillion dollar club.Don't count out this \"unknown\" tech giantWill Healy (ASML): Given the hype surrounding better-known semiconductor stocks, Netherlands-based ASML describes itself as the \"most important tech company you've never heard of\" due to its role in the chip industry.It leads its industry in extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV), the technology that powers the world's most advanced chip manufacturing processes. Companies like Taiwan Semiconductor and Samsung cannot produce their most powerful chips without ASML's EUV technology, giving ASML a competitive advantage over peers such as Lam Research and Applied Materials.At a market cap of just over $250 billion, it will have to double in value twice over the next seven years for its market cap to reach $1 trillion. However, TSMC, Samsung, and Intel have pledged hundreds of billions of dollars to construct additional fabs to power the latest technology and diversify the manufacturing base away from Taiwan.Due to this rising demand for EUV machines, the company expects annual revenue to grow to between 44 billion euros and 60 billion euros ($48 billion to $66 billion) by 2030. This means considerable growth compared to the 21 billion euros ($23 billion) in revenue ASML generated in 2022. Still, the 6.7 billion euros ($7.4 billion) in revenue for the first quarter of 2023 indicates it is well on its way to meeting that 2030 revenue goal.Moreover, ASML earned 5.6 billion euros ($6.2 billion) in 2022, more than double the 2.6 billion euros ($2.8 billion) in 2018. The increase in gross margins from 46% to 50.5% during that time considerably boosted its profits, and a 50.6% gross margin in Q1 2023 indicates margin expansions are continuing. Additionally, for 2030, ASML predicts gross margins will rise to the 56% to 60% range, increasing the chances it will double its income at the same or possibly a heightened pace.This is significant because doubling its income twice would take its annual earnings to approximately 22 billion euros, or $24 billion, in 2030. At that income level, it must reach a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 42 to attain a $1 trillion market cap. Fortunately for ASML, it now sells for 42 times its earnings, and its P/E ratio often exceeded 50 during the most recent bull market.Admittedly, a lot can happen in seven years. But as conditions stand now, rising chip demand means the world needs more of ASML's technology. If the company can maintain its income growth and valuation until 2030, $1 trillion is within reach.Meta's ruthless efficiency is good news for your portfolioJustin Pope (Meta Platforms): Remember when Wall Street declared Meta's golden years were over? That Mark Zuckerberg had lost his touch, spending billions on his metaverse projects? You don't hear that anymore now that shares have risen nearly 80% since the start of 2023. The good news is that Meta isn't delivering flukey returns. Instead, the market is celebrating the company's decision to tighten spending, cut costs, and squeeze profits from its dominant family of social media apps.Meta has announced multiple rounds of layoffs, shedding roughly 25,000 jobs across three rounds of cuts. The job cuts, combined with some spending reductions, should lower Meta's total 2023 expenses to $89 billion to $95 billion from $94 billion to $100 billion. While you shouldn't want Meta going too far and suffocating innovation, it acknowledges that the company had grown bloated.This sets the stage for Meta's family of apps to continue raking in big profits. Monthly users across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp continue growing, increasing 4% year over year in Q4 to 3.74 billion. Political pressure on TikTok has proven a tailwind for Meta's short-term video product -- Reels activity more than doubled from 2021 to 2022.Social media looks like it's going nowhere, which could continue driving steady earnings growth for Meta. A rebound in Meta's ad business, continued user growth, monetization from Reels, and future innovations can help grow the bottom line.With a market cap of over $500 billion, Meta must double its earnings-per-share (EPS) by 2030 and hold its valuation (which remains very reasonable) to hit a trillion-dollar market cap. Analysts expect nearly 11% annual EPS growth over the next three to five years, so Meta has a very realistic shot of delivering for shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":140,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944471587,"gmtCreate":1682065853949,"gmtModify":1682065857459,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9944471587","repostId":"2328690743","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2328690743","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1682057363,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2328690743?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-21 14:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons Netflix Profits Will Soar This Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2328690743","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The streaming giant pointed to positive progress on three key initiatives.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><strong>Netflix</strong> reported first-quarter earnings this week, and the market didn&#39;t appear to love the results. Shares were down 3.2% the following day.</p><p>While the streaming-giant&#39;s profit came in above expectations, top-line revenue came in slightly below, at 3.7% growth. Of note, foreign exchange hurt both revenue and profit margins.

While the transition may be rocky, three big initiatives are kicking in this year that should lead to higher profit margins in 2023 and beyond.  </p><h2>1. Advertising could be insanely profitable</h2><p>First, Netflix just rolled out its ad-supported tier in the fall of 2022. Fortunately, early signs point to this being a really good move by management.</p><p>In the first quarter, management noted engagement in the ad-supported tier was above company expectations. Even better, most of the ad-supported viewing is in incremental accounts, with &#34;very little&#34; switching from premium to ad-supported tiers.</p><p>Perhaps more importantly, the monetization from ads is looking up. In the U.S., average revenue per member (ARM) for the ad-supported tier, including both the lower subscription and ad revenue combined, exceeded that of subscription-only plans. Right now, Netflix only has its &#34;basic&#34; plans in 780p resolution qualifying for ad support, but since ads are going so successfully, Netflix is going to expand ads to 1080p resolution plans, too.</p><p>CFO Spencer Neumann said on the conference call that advertising adds an incremental 50% margin profit right now on top of subscriptions. Margin should go higher as Netflix builds out more programmatic advertising capabilities in tandem with its ad-tech partners and scales further.</p><p>Given the incremental and high-margin nature of ad revenue, the rise of ad-supported tiers at Netflix should be very good for profitability.</p><h2>2. Paid account sharing</h2><p>As some may have heard, Netflix is finally cracking down on password sharing among its customers. But rather than the wholesale cancellations of subscriptions for any member outside the household, Netflix has devised a way to meet its customers halfway.</p><p>The company has tested a &#34;paid sharing&#34; feature in four countries last quarter, including Canada, New Zealand, Spain, and Portugal, after initially testing the feature in Latin America. The concept works exactly like it sounds: Existing Netflix subscribers can now add two people outside the household to an account for an incremental fee that&#39;s not as high as a regular subscription.</p><p>In Canada and New Zealand, the fee was $7.99 for two accounts, 3.99 euros in Portugal and 5.99 euros in Spain. The concept is not unlike adding members to a credit card account for a lower annual fee.</p><p>Management noted that when the plans were initially offered, engagement went down as some subscribers fell off accounts. However, in a short amount of time, those prior account &#34;borrowers&#34; were either added back as paid shared additions or became new subscribers themselves. In the end, Netflix netted out a greater amount of paid subscription revenue after the initial drop.</p><p>In the Q1 shareholder letter, management gave an encouraging preview for this feature, which will be rolled out to the U.S. in the second quarter. They wrote: &#34;[I]n Canada, which we believe is a reliable predictor for the US, our paid membership base is now larger than prior to the launch of paid sharing and revenue growth has accelerated and is now growing faster than in the US.&#34;</p><p>Paid sharing should add virtually costless revenue to Netflix&#39;s results as paid additions are rolled out in the U.S. this quarter, further benefiting the bottom line.</p><h2>3. Lowered content spend, and an upgrade to investment grade </h2><p>Finally, management also noted it would be spending a bit less on content this year than the $17 billion it had initially projected last quarter. And now that the company is generating greater operating profits and free cash flow, <strong>Moody&#39;s</strong> upgraded the company&#39;s debt in the first quarter to Baa3, giving Netflix an official &#34;investment grade&#34; rating by a majority of leading ratings agencies.</p><p>Netflix will now have lower interest expenses when refinancing debt. When combined with management&#39;s controlled content spending in line with revenue growth, both initiatives should incrementally benefit the company&#39;s bottom line.</p><h2>Netflix is now a bottom-line company</h2><p>Netflix used to be a revenue-focused growth company, but investors should now look more evenly at the company&#39;s top and bottom lines. It forecasts operating margin to expand to 18%-20% this year, up from 17.8% last year, and for $3.5 billion in free cash flow, relative to $1.6 billion in 2022.</p><p>As the effects of ad-supported tiers, paid account sharing, and lower interest costs kick in, investors should expect margins to expand well beyond this year. At about 41 times this-year&#39;s free-cash-flow estimate, shareholders will need the company to show even more incremental profitability in the future. Fortunately, management appears to be executing quite well on that front.</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>3 Reasons Netflix Profits Will Soar This Year</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\">\n3 Reasons Netflix Profits Will Soar This Year\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-21 14:09 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/20/3-reasons-netflix-profits-will-soar-this-year/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Netflix reported first-quarter earnings this week, and the market didn't appear to love the results.

So, buckle up, stock sleuths, and get ready for a thrill ride.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a>: a chip off the old blockbuster</h2><p><strong>Advanced Micro Devices</strong> (AMD -0.10%) is shining bright in the semiconductor industry nowadays, with its Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics cards putting up more than a fair fight against big-name competitors. CEO Lisa Su&#39;s leadership has been instrumental in this success, driving a culture of innovation and a commitment to excellence. Under her guidance, AMD has shed its past mistakes of overpromising and underdelivering. The company is now focused on delivering high-performance products that offer great value to customers. So if want a company that&#39;s blazing its own path through the bitterly competitive semiconductor industry, AMD might just be the ticker for you.</p><p>In the past year, AMD&#39;s stock has shown impressive resilience. Shares are trading at $110, reflecting a remarkable 52% increase from their 52-week low. This impressive performance has caught the attention of several analysts. For instance, in February 2023, Cowen analyst Matthew Ramsay reiterated an Outperform rating on AMD with a price target of $130, citing the company&#39;s strong product portfolio and opportunities in the exploding artificial intelligence (AI) market.</p><p>Moreover, the company&#39;s financial results have been on an upward trajectory. In the fourth quarter of 2022, AMD reported revenue of $4.8 billion, a 49% year-over-year increase. Earnings per share of landed at $0.54. Your average analyst would have settled for $0.52 per share. This growth was driven by robust demand for its Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics cards across various segments, including gaming, data centers, and AI applications. And the recent $50 billion Xilinx acquisition should fan the flames even harder under AMD&#39;s steam engine.</p><p>As AMD continues to innovate and expand its product offerings, the company will further cement its position in the market. The stock isn&#39;t cheap but that&#39;s for good reason. You get what you pay for, namely a high-octane growth stock with its sights set on many years of continued success across many high-growth target markets.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SHOP\">Shopify</a>: ringing up profits</h2><p>Next in line, there&#39;s <strong>Shopify</strong>, a leading e-commerce platform that enables businesses and entrepreneurs to create and manage their online stores. It provides an all-in-one solution, including web design, payment processing, inventory management, and social media integrations.</p><p>If that sounds like a sweet business model in this age of everything going digital at an astonishing pace and e-commerce sales soaring on every continent, well, I think you&#39;re onto something. Shopify&#39;s annual sales have nearly doubled over the last two years and quintupled since 2018. Meanwhile, share prices have tumbled recently and the formerly high-flying stock suddenly looks quite affordable:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87d82e9f544e0427e2d0f541d197a5c8\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"410\"/></p><p>SHOP Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts</p><p>As the stock price tumbled 26% from its 52-week high, you might think this digital dynamo is down for the count. That may be true for the stock chart, but Shopify&#39;s actual business is healthy as a horse.</p><p>This is still the king of e-commerce platforms, and the long-term growth prospects in that target market are as impressive as ever. Sure, there&#39;s an inflation-inspired slowdown in pretty much every retail market right now, including online stores. But you shouldn&#39;t confuse a short-lived stagnation for a permanent pickle.</p><p>Oh, and did you know that Shopify already built AI smarts into its digital assistant, the Shop app? At a recent tech industry conference, Shopify president Harley Finkelstein explained how ChatGPT helps the app find the products you need.</p><p>&#34;You can have a conversation with this incredible bot that is powered by ChatGPT, and you can say, &#39;I want to have a barbecue with [conference host] Keith, and it&#39;s going to be a Hawaiian theme, and there are so many people,&#39;&#34; Finkelstein said. &#34;And you will see products you can buy with one click and actually create a full barbecue and a full party experience.&#34;</p><p>So the shopping experience is getting more helpful, even as shoppers everywhere are getting used to doing all types of business online. If that&#39;s not a perfect setup for launching Shopify&#39;s sales and profits to the moon, I don&#39;t know what is.</p><p>It&#39;s time to scoop up some shares while they&#39;re still a steal.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DOCU\">DocuSign</a>: sealing deal after deal</h2><p>Finally, let&#39;s dig into <strong>DocuSign</strong>, the digital document dynamo that&#39;s revolutionizing the way we sign on the dotted line. You might be scratching your head at a stock price that&#39;s down 16% from its 52-week high, but don&#39;t let that scare you. This paperless powerhouse is just getting started.</p><p>DocuSign&#39;s recent swoon is an opportunity in disguise. Despite brutal market slumps in some of DocuSign&#39;s most important client sectors such as real estate and car sales, the company&#39;s annual sales increased by 158% in the last three years. To keep up this excellent growth trajectory, DocuSign wants to expand its customer base, increase its average revenue per user, and venture into new markets like Europe and Asia. Making strides in real estate, financial services, and healthcare markets should help the company achieve these goals.</p><p>And then it&#39;s only a matter of time until market makers realize their mistake and get back to driving DocuSign&#39;s stock price higher again. Until then, DocuSign shares are trading at just 21 times forward earnings while top-line sales rose at a compound average rate of 37% over the last five years. Those shares are an absolute bargain.</p><h2>Putting your $1,000 to work</h2><p>With these three tempting tickers in your tableau, now&#39;s the time to make your move. Spread your $1,000 across AMD, Shopify, and DocuSign, or double down on your favorite for a potentially bountiful payoff somewhere down the road. Remember, fortune favors the bold, and when it comes to investing, sometimes you have to take a leap of faith. I don&#39;t mean you should take out a second mortgage and literally bet the farm, but this trio looks like good stewards of a fairly modest $1,000 pledge right now.</p><p>So, dust off your stock-picking hat, and let&#39;s leap into the future together. DocuSign, Shopify, and AMD want to come along for the ride. Let&#39;s say you decide to pick up 3 AMD shares, 5 DocuSign stubs, and 6 shares of Shopify, putting roughly $300 to work in each stock. You&#39;d still have enough cash left over for a delightful family dinner after all that, or overweighting your favorite bargain idea with that last Benjamin.</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>Have $1,000?

Shares are trading at $110, reflecting a remarkable 52% increase from their 52-week low. This impressive performance has caught the attention of several analysts. For instance, in February 2023, Cowen analyst Matthew Ramsay reiterated an Outperform rating on AMD with a price target of $130, citing the company's strong product portfolio and opportunities in the exploding artificial intelligence (AI) market.Moreover, the company's financial results have been on an upward trajectory. In the fourth quarter of 2022, AMD reported revenue of $4.8 billion, a 49% year-over-year increase. Earnings per share of landed at $0.54. Your average analyst would have settled for $0.52 per share. This growth was driven by robust demand for its Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics cards across various segments, including gaming, data centers, and AI applications. And the recent $50 billion Xilinx acquisition should fan the flames even harder under AMD's steam engine.As AMD continues to innovate and expand its product offerings, the company will further cement its position in the market. The stock isn't cheap but that's for good reason. You get what you pay for, namely a high-octane growth stock with its sights set on many years of continued success across many high-growth target markets.Shopify: ringing up profitsNext in line, there's Shopify, a leading e-commerce platform that enables businesses and entrepreneurs to create and manage their online stores. It provides an all-in-one solution, including web design, payment processing, inventory management, and social media integrations.If that sounds like a sweet business model in this age of everything going digital at an astonishing pace and e-commerce sales soaring on every continent, well, I think you're onto something. Shopify's annual sales have nearly doubled over the last two years and quintupled since 2018. Meanwhile, share prices have tumbled recently and the formerly high-flying stock suddenly looks quite affordable:SHOP Revenue (TTM) data by YChartsAs the stock price tumbled 26% from its 52-week high, you might think this digital dynamo is down for the count. That may be true for the stock chart, but Shopify's actual business is healthy as a horse.This is still the king of e-commerce platforms, and the long-term growth prospects in that target market are as impressive as ever. Sure, there's an inflation-inspired slowdown in pretty much every retail market right now, including online stores. But you shouldn't confuse a short-lived stagnation for a permanent pickle.Oh, and did you know that Shopify already built AI smarts into its digital assistant, the Shop app? At a recent tech industry conference, Shopify president Harley Finkelstein explained how ChatGPT helps the app find the products you need.\"You can have a conversation with this incredible bot that is powered by ChatGPT, and you can say, 'I want to have a barbecue with [conference host] Keith, and it's going to be a Hawaiian theme, and there are so many people,'\" Finkelstein said. \"And you will see products you can buy with one click and actually create a full barbecue and a full party experience.\"So the shopping experience is getting more helpful, even as shoppers everywhere are getting used to doing all types of business online. If that's not a perfect setup for launching Shopify's sales and profits to the moon, I don't know what is.It's time to scoop up some shares while they're still a steal.DocuSign: sealing deal after dealFinally, let's dig into DocuSign, the digital document dynamo that's revolutionizing the way we sign on the dotted line. You might be scratching your head at a stock price that's down 16% from its 52-week high, but don't let that scare you. This paperless powerhouse is just getting started.DocuSign's recent swoon is an opportunity in disguise. Despite brutal market slumps in some of DocuSign's most important client sectors such as real estate and car sales, the company's annual sales increased by 158% in the last three years. To keep up this excellent growth trajectory, DocuSign wants to expand its customer base, increase its average revenue per user, and venture into new markets like Europe and Asia. Making strides in real estate, financial services, and healthcare markets should help the company achieve these goals.And then it's only a matter of time until market makers realize their mistake and get back to driving DocuSign's stock price higher again. Until then, DocuSign shares are trading at just 21 times forward earnings while top-line sales rose at a compound average rate of 37% over the last five years. Those shares are an absolute bargain.Putting your $1,000 to workWith these three tempting tickers in your tableau, now's the time to make your move. Spread your $1,000 across AMD, Shopify, and DocuSign, or double down on your favorite for a potentially bountiful payoff somewhere down the road. Remember, fortune favors the bold, and when it comes to investing, sometimes you have to take a leap of faith. I don't mean you should take out a second mortgage and literally bet the farm, but this trio looks like good stewards of a fairly modest $1,000 pledge right now.So, dust off your stock-picking hat, and let's leap into the future together. DocuSign, Shopify, and AMD want to come along for the ride. Let's say you decide to pick up 3 AMD shares, 5 DocuSign stubs, and 6 shares of Shopify, putting roughly $300 to work in each stock. You'd still have enough cash left over for a delightful family dinner after all that, or overweighting your favorite bargain idea with that last Benjamin.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9946464546,"gmtCreate":1681025843286,"gmtModify":1681025847188,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":25,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9946464546","repostId":"2325952321","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2325952321","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1681011787,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2325952321?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-09 11:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 3 Stocks Could Race Higher at the Drop of a Hat","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2325952321","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Tech stocks are on fire in 2023 -- and these three are the cream of the crop.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The first quarter of 2023 is in the books, and it was a decent one for the major indexes.

Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>A banking crisis overshadows SoFi&#39;s numerous positives</h2><p><strong>Justin Pope</strong> <strong>(SoFi Technologies):</strong> It&#39;s been tough living as a digital bank for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">SoFi Technologies</a>. The company&#39;s been plagued by a student loan freeze for several years, and the recent banking crisis has only shaken investor confidence in smaller lenders. Shares are trading near the low end of their 52-week range, down 77% from their high.</p><p>But the bank&#39;s on firmer ground than its share price might indicate. First, SoFi is well capitalized -- well above the minimum financial ratios regulators mandate, and its depositor base of 5.2 million members is more diversified than a bank like Silicon Valley Bank. Second, there&#39;s a student loan freeze in effect, which has hurt SoFi&#39;s loan refinancing business, which was huge before the pandemic.</p><p>However, it hasn&#39;t stopped SoFi from marching toward profitability.

That&#39;s why the stock could rebound when the smoke clears.

CEO Anthony Noto reiterated his confidence, buying roughly $1.2 million in stock last month. You can&#39;t predict when, but SoFi&#39;s stock could spring higher at the first sign of positive news.</p><h2>The tech conglomerate that may soon seem &#39;unlimited&#39;</h2><p><strong>Will Healy</strong> <strong>(Sea Limited): </strong>Admittedly, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited</a> stock may appear to have moved too far too fast. Since falling to a low of just under $41 per share last November, it has more than doubled.</p><p>Still, in other ways, Sea Limited appears far from done. The tech conglomerate, which includes the e-commerce business Shopee and fintech segment Sea Money, has drawn investor interest amid a push to cut costs and turn profitable.</p><p>Sea Money has continued to grow at a triple-digit clip, though it only makes up around 10% of the company&#39;s revenue. Earlier in the year, Shopee reversed most of its expansion plans outside its core Southeast Asian market. But the strategy seems to have worked as e-commerce revenue of $7.3 billion rose 42% in 2022 compared with the prior year.</p><p>Additionally, the factor that could make Sea Limited&#39;s stock fully turn around is the reversal of declining revenue in its gaming segment, Garena. Garena&#39;s <em>Free Fire </em>was the world&#39;s most downloaded mobile game from 2019 to 2021, but its popularity has waned amid a decline in the gaming industry. Consequently, Garena&#39;s revenue dropped 9% in 2022 to $3.9 billion.</p><p>However, Newzoo forecasts player numbers will grow from 3.2 billion in 2022 to 3.5 billion by 2025. Such growth should help reverse declines in the gaming industry. That could accelerate Sea Limited&#39;s revenue growth, which in 2022 surged 25% to $12.4 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7498cb1aa3bf16d1bb26dcaf39931135\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\"/></p><p>SE PS Ratio data by YCharts</p><p>Moreover, despite the recent surge in the stock price, investors should remember that Sea Limited sells at a discount of more than 70% from its all-time high in the fall of 2021. As a result, it trades at a P/S ratio of 4. That is just above all-time lows and well below the record sales multiple of just above 30 in 2021.</p><p>Such a valuation could induce investors to brave the waters. And given the entertainment stock&#39;s potential when all three segments are in a growth mode, the new bull market in Sea Limited stock may have only just begun.</p><h2>Adobe&#39;s stock is still a bargain</h2><p><strong>Jake Lerch (Adobe):</strong> Shares of software giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a> have been on a wild ride over the last year and a half. The stock is still more than 44% off its all-time high of $688.37, even after rallying 35% over the last six months.</p><p>Yet, to my eye, Adobe has room to run higher from here -- <em>much higher</em>. Why? Two reasons.</p><p>First, Wall Street has been wrong. Many analysts have expected a pullback in demand for Adobe&#39;s products that just hasn&#39;t materialized. The company has beaten earnings expectations in four straight quarters. Adobe&#39;s rockstar lineup of products, including Creative Cloud, Document Cloud, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXP.AU\">Experience</a> Cloud, continue to draw in new customers and help retain existing ones.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a973d5cfbfe76f197b5f5eae7c9931b1\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\"/></p><p>ADBE data by YCharts</p><p>Second, Adobe&#39;s valuation still looks attractive. As you can see above, Adobe&#39;s stock price has more or less tracked its trailing-12-month revenue over the last 10 years. However, right now, its stock price is lagging far behind its revenue. This is why the company&#39;s price-to-sales ratio stands at 10, below its long-term average of 12.</p><p>I expect Adobe will deliver solid sales and earnings results going forward -- thanks to its subscription model and its best-of-breed creative software solutions. And if that happens, Adobe&#39;s stock could be off to the races.</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>These 3 Stocks Could Race Higher at the Drop of a Hat</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\">\nThese 3 Stocks Could Race Higher at the Drop of a Hat\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-09 11:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/08/prediction-these-3-stocks-could-race-higher-at-the/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The first quarter of 2023 is in the books, and it was a decent one for the major indexes.

Analysts predict Tesla will continue to face pricing pressure in the near future. Tesla deliveries rose 36% vs. a year earlier to 422,875. That was 4% above the prior record of 405,278 in Q4. But Wall Street was expecting around 431,000 Tesla deliveries, according to FactSet. However, Tesla did beat some other consensus forecasts. First-quarter deliveries included 412,180 Model 3 and Y vehicles, along with 10,695 Model S and X luxury vehicles. Production once again exceeded deliveries, at 440,808. Model S and X production was at 19,437. With deliveries out of the way, the next question is how the price cuts affected Tesla earnings and gross margins — and if further price cuts will be needed. The EV giant is due to report Q1 results on April 19. The average Tesla vehicle selling price in the first quarter was around $46,780, according to FactSet. That&#39;s down from $51,400 in the fourth quarter and $52,100 a year ago. Tesla&#39;s entry-level Model 3 is expected to lose at least some of its $7,500 U.S. EV tax credit by April 18, when battery material and components rules come into effect.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">China EV Sales Generally Rebound</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">China EV sales rebounded, month over month, in March for <strong>BYD</strong> (<strong>BYDDF</strong>), <strong>Li Auto</strong> (<strong>LI</strong>) and <strong>XPeng</strong> (<strong>XPEV</strong>), but <strong>Nio</strong> (<strong>NIO</strong>) lagged. The Chinese EV makers had seen a weak start to 2023 after the end of subsidies and a price war set off by Tesla. The Chinese New Year holiday in late January also had curbed sales. For the full first quarter, BYD sold more than half a million electric and hybrid cars, nearly doubling sales vs. a year ago, but down vs. Q4. Li Auto outsold Nio and XPeng again last quarter, but all three startups posted Q1 sales near the lower end of their own guidance.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">U.S. Auto Sales Top Views</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">U.S. auto sales came in hotter than expected for the first quarter on the back of rising vehicle inventories and fleet sales, offsetting elevated prices and high auto loan rates. The quarterly sales pace reached an &#34;unexpectedly strong&#34; 15.3 million annualized units, an increase of 8.5% vs. the year-ago quarter, Cox Automotive said. <strong>General Motors</strong> (<strong>GM</strong>) was the top seller for the quarter, posting an 18% year-over-year sales jump. <strong>Ford</strong> (<strong>F</strong>) grew sales 10%. GM was also the top EV seller for the quarter behind dominant <strong>Tesla</strong> (<strong>TSLA</strong>), but most of its sales consisted of older-gen Bolt models, while its new-gen, Ultium-branded EVs slowly ramp up.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">WWE Finds Its Fighting Partner</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Ultimate Fighter Championship parent <strong>Endeavor</strong> (<strong>EDR</strong>) announced it will buy a 51% majority stake in <strong>World Wrestling Entertainment</strong> (<strong>WWE</strong>) to create a &#34;live sports and entertainment powerhouse&#34; valued at $21.4 billion. The combined firm will trade on the NYSE under the ticker TKO. Endeavor will hold six seats on the new board of directors, while WWE gets five. WWE Chairman Vince McMahon will be chairman of the new company while Endeavor CEO Ariel Emanuel will continue in that position. EDR stock stumbled while WWE stock jumped. Meanwhile, storage REIT <strong>Extra Space Storage</strong> (<strong>EXR</strong>) will buy <strong>Life Storage</strong> (<strong>LSI</strong>) for $12.7 billion in stock. Life Storage previously rejected an $11 billion bid from <strong>Public Storage</strong> (<strong>PSA</strong>).</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">Casino Stocks Fall Despite Macau Gaming Boom</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Gaming revenue in Macau more than tripled in March, hitting a post-pandemic high after Beijing ended its harsh zero-Covid policy. For the full first quarter, gaming revenue almost doubled as travel curbs eased. It also got a boost from the Chinese New Year holiday in late January. Macau is an administrative region in China and the world&#39;s largest gambling hub. Macau-heavy casino giant stocks such as <strong>Wynn Resorts</strong> (<strong>WYNN</strong>) initially popped on the news, but fell back.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Simply Good Foods</strong> (<strong>SMPL</strong>) adjusted earnings retreated 11% to 32 cents per share for its Q2 results Wednesday, but still topped expectations of 29 cents per share. Revenue was flat year over year at $297 million as analysts saw a decline to $294 million. Simply Good Foods anticipates U.S. retail take-away will moderate over the year due to a recessionary economic environment. The company expects greater gross margin declines year over year based on current performance and higher supply chain costs for the rest of the year. <strong>Conagra Brands</strong> (<strong>CAG</strong>) earnings leapt 31% to 76 cents per share, easily beating forecasts of 64 cents. Revenue rose 5.9% to $3.1 billion, in line with expectations. The processed-food maker lifted its fiscal 2023 earnings forecast to $2.70 to $2.75 per share on sustained higher food prices. Conagra guided earnings between $2.60 and $2.70 per share in January. Potato products maker <strong>Lamb Weston</strong> (<strong>LW</strong>) earnings rocketed 95% to $1.43 per share Thursday, blowing away estimates of 99 cents. Lamb Weston raised its FY23 earnings guidance to $4.35 to $4.50 per share, up from $3.75 to $4.00, based on its Lamb Weston Europe, Middle East and Africa consolidation.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">In Brief</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Smart Global Holdings</strong> (<strong>SGH</strong>) beat estimates for earnings but missed with sales in its fiscal second quarter ended Feb. 24.

The major indexes' pullbacks looked normal, but many sectors and leading stocks suffered significant losses, while regional bank stocks faltered. Crude oil prices shot up after OPEC+ unexpectedly announced a big production cut. Treasury yields and the dollar tumbled to multimonth lows on recession fears.Tesla (TSLA) reported record deliveries in the first quarter thanks to big price cuts and U.S. tax credits. But shipments fell short of views, while production exceeded sales yet again. China EV giant BYD (BYDDF) reported a big Q1 delivery jump vs. a year earlier, but its shipments slid vs. Q4. Li Auto (LI) sales boomed, while Nio (NIO) sales in March fell vs. February while XPeng (XPEV) reported a huge drop vs. a year earlier. General Motors (GM) and Ford (F) reported strong U.S. sales. Ultimate Fighting parent Endeavor (EDR) will buy World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in a merger, while Extra Space Storage (EXR) will acquire Life Storage (LSI).Stock Market Rally Takes Some HitsThe Dow Jones rose, the S&P 500 edged lower and Nasdaq retreated in a short week after running up in prior weeks. The major indexes still look healthy, but there was damage in many leading stocks and sectors amid rising recession risks. Treasury yields and the dollar tumbled to multimonth lows. U.S. crude oil futures spiked on a surprise OPEC+ output cut.Economic Data WeakensThe March jobs report showed the U.S. labor market remains strong, likely keeping the pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in its efforts to slow inflation.

(AAPL), the most valuable publicly listed U.S. company, is also the biggest contributor of market-cap gains this quarter, with its value alone rising by $502 billion through Thursday&#39;s close. The company suffered late last year as COVID-19 restrictions impacted production in China, but conditions there have since improved. The second largest company, Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), is next with $327 billion in market-cap gains as it benefited from artificial-intelligence buzz through its investment in ChatGPT creator OpenAI.</p><p>The third largest contributor perhaps is more surprising. Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) was nearly a third the size of Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) and less than half the size of Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) at the end of 2022, but the chip maker has seen its market value almost double through the first three months of 2023 as it&#39;s also viewed as a play on AI. Nvidia had chipped in $317 billion to the sector&#39;s market-cap increase as of Thursday&#39;s close.</p><p>Next up is Tesla Inc., racking up $229 billion in market-cap gains as its stock heads for its best quarter since 2020; Meta Platforms Inc. (META), notching $191 billion in market-cap gains as investors continue to cheer the social-media company&#39;s ongoing cost cuts; and Amazon and Google-parent Alphabet, which are contributing in $188 billion and $139 billion in gains, respectively.</p><p>There&#39;s a sizable drop-off outside the seven largest players. Rounding out the top 10 biggest U.S. tech companies are Broadcom Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AVGO\">$(AVGO)$</a> ($31 billion in first-quarter market-cap gains), Oracle Corp. (ORCL) ($24 billion in gains) and Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO) ($15 billion in gains).</p><p>Shares of Salesforce Inc. (CRM), Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) and Intel Corp.

Shares of Nvidia soared 8,250% over the past decade, meaning an initial investment of $20,000 would now be worth $1.7 million. Similarly, shares of Tesla climbed 7,340% over the past decade, turning an initial investment of $20,000 into nearly $1.5 million.</p><p>Are these growth stocks still worth buying?</p><h2>1. Nvidia</h2><p>Semiconductor company Nvidia stumbled last year as high inflation reduced demand for its gaming and data center chips. Revenue remained flat at $27 billion and free cash flow fell 53% to $3.8 billion. Unfortunately, management expects current quarter revenue to decline 22% as economic headwinds continue to suppress demand, though guidance implies operating expenses will also fall sharply.</p><p>However, Nvidia should find it easy to reaccelerate growth when economic conditions improve. Its graphics processing units (GPUs) are the gold standard for rendering realistic visual effects in video games and films, and for accelerating complex data center workloads like scientific computing and artificial intelligence (AI). In fact, Nvidia GPUs hold more than 90% market share in workstation graphics and supercomputer accelerators.</p><p>The company has recently branched into cloud software and services. Omniverse Cloud is a 3D design platform for metaverse applications. DGX Cloud provides on-demand access to Nvidia AI infrastructure, and it includes frameworks that accelerate AI application development in areas like retail, logistics, and healthcare. Nvidia also provides generative AI services for text, images, and video. For instance, investment company Morningstar uses the Nvidia NeMo model to scan and summarize financial documents.</p><p>Those cloud services build on the brand authority Nvidia has cultivated as a chipmaker, and they create new revenue streams that offer more regular cash flow and higher margins than the sale of cyclical hardware products. Management values its addressable market at $1 trillion, and Nvidia should benefit greatly as technologies like the metaverse and AI continue to evolve.</p><p>Currently, shares trade at 24.4 times sales, above the three-year average of 20.7 times sales. That valuation is far from cheap, but Nvidia is the heart of the burgeoning AI industry, so investors should still consider buying a small position in this growth stock today.</p><h2>2. Tesla</h2><p>Tesla faced an onslaught of headwinds last year. Supply chain problems and factory closures hindered production, while high inflation and rising interest rates hammered sales across the auto industry. Tesla managed to grow deliveries 40% to 1.3 million vehicles, but that figure fell short of its medium-term guidance calling for 50% annual growth. Fourth-quarter deliveries also fell short of the Wall Street consensus by a wide margin.</p><p>Some analysts have explained that shortfall as a demand problem, but management brushed those concerns aside during the latest earnings call. CEO Elon Musk said the company was receiving orders at nearly twice the rate of production. Better yet, despite encountering a number of roadblocks throughout the year, Tesla reported impressive financial results. Revenue increased 51% to $81.5 billion, and GAAP net income soared 122% to $3.62 per diluted share. Tesla also led the industry with 18.2% market share in battery electric vehicles.</p><p>Additionally, the company achieved an operating margin of 16.8% last year, the highest among any volume carmaker. Musk attributes that accomplishment to manufacturing prowess, noting that Tesla has the most advanced manufacturing technology on the planet. Better yet, there are several reasons to believe the company will become more profitable in the future.</p><p>Tesla should see its logistics costs fall as production ramps at Gigafactory Berlin, its first European factory, simply because the company can now produce cars locally in that market. Tesla is also scaling production of its 4680 battery cell, a technology that promises to reinforce its cost leadership in battery pack production. The company can already produce battery packs (the most expensive part of an electric car) at a lower cost per kilowatt-hour than any other carmaker, but management says the 4680 cell will eventually cut costs by 56%.</p><p>Finally, Tesla sees significant margin upside from its full self-driving (FSD) software. A beta version of the product was released to customers in North America last year, and Tesla plans to take the next step toward autonomous ride hailing by mass-producing a robotaxi next year. Ultimately, management believes FSD technology will be the company&#39;s most important source of profitability.</p><p>Tesla sits in front of a sizable market opportunity. Global electric car sales are expected to grow at 23% annually to hit $1.1 trillion by 2030, according to Precedence Research. And the autonomous vehicles market is expected to grow at 40% annually to reach $2.1 trillion by 2030, according to Research and Markets. As the current leader in battery electric vehicles and one of the leading AI companies (according to Musk), Tesla is set to benefit from both tailwinds. The stock currently trades at 8 times sales, a very rich valuation for a carmaker.</p><p>Investors must decide whether Tesla is a carmaker that dabbles in AI, or an AI company that makes cars. Those who find the second description more accurate should consider buying a few shares of this growth stock today.

Nvidia and Tesla are proof of that. Shares of Nvidia soared 8,250% over the past decade, meaning an initial investment of $20,000 would now be worth $1.7 million. Similarly, shares of Tesla climbed 7,340% over the past decade, turning an initial investment of $20,000 into nearly $1.5 million.Are these growth stocks still worth buying?1. NvidiaSemiconductor company Nvidia stumbled last year as high inflation reduced demand for its gaming and data center chips. Revenue remained flat at $27 billion and free cash flow fell 53% to $3.8 billion. Unfortunately, management expects current quarter revenue to decline 22% as economic headwinds continue to suppress demand, though guidance implies operating expenses will also fall sharply.However, Nvidia should find it easy to reaccelerate growth when economic conditions improve. Its graphics processing units (GPUs) are the gold standard for rendering realistic visual effects in video games and films, and for accelerating complex data center workloads like scientific computing and artificial intelligence (AI). In fact, Nvidia GPUs hold more than 90% market share in workstation graphics and supercomputer accelerators.The company has recently branched into cloud software and services. Omniverse Cloud is a 3D design platform for metaverse applications. DGX Cloud provides on-demand access to Nvidia AI infrastructure, and it includes frameworks that accelerate AI application development in areas like retail, logistics, and healthcare. Nvidia also provides generative AI services for text, images, and video. For instance, investment company Morningstar uses the Nvidia NeMo model to scan and summarize financial documents.Those cloud services build on the brand authority Nvidia has cultivated as a chipmaker, and they create new revenue streams that offer more regular cash flow and higher margins than the sale of cyclical hardware products. Management values its addressable market at $1 trillion, and Nvidia should benefit greatly as technologies like the metaverse and AI continue to evolve.Currently, shares trade at 24.4 times sales, above the three-year average of 20.7 times sales. That valuation is far from cheap, but Nvidia is the heart of the burgeoning AI industry, so investors should still consider buying a small position in this growth stock today.2. TeslaTesla faced an onslaught of headwinds last year. Supply chain problems and factory closures hindered production, while high inflation and rising interest rates hammered sales across the auto industry. Tesla managed to grow deliveries 40% to 1.3 million vehicles, but that figure fell short of its medium-term guidance calling for 50% annual growth. Fourth-quarter deliveries also fell short of the Wall Street consensus by a wide margin.Some analysts have explained that shortfall as a demand problem, but management brushed those concerns aside during the latest earnings call. CEO Elon Musk said the company was receiving orders at nearly twice the rate of production. Better yet, despite encountering a number of roadblocks throughout the year, Tesla reported impressive financial results. Revenue increased 51% to $81.5 billion, and GAAP net income soared 122% to $3.62 per diluted share. Tesla also led the industry with 18.2% market share in battery electric vehicles.Additionally, the company achieved an operating margin of 16.8% last year, the highest among any volume carmaker. Musk attributes that accomplishment to manufacturing prowess, noting that Tesla has the most advanced manufacturing technology on the planet. Better yet, there are several reasons to believe the company will become more profitable in the future.Tesla should see its logistics costs fall as production ramps at Gigafactory Berlin, its first European factory, simply because the company can now produce cars locally in that market. Tesla is also scaling production of its 4680 battery cell, a technology that promises to reinforce its cost leadership in battery pack production. The company can already produce battery packs (the most expensive part of an electric car) at a lower cost per kilowatt-hour than any other carmaker, but management says the 4680 cell will eventually cut costs by 56%.Finally, Tesla sees significant margin upside from its full self-driving (FSD) software. A beta version of the product was released to customers in North America last year, and Tesla plans to take the next step toward autonomous ride hailing by mass-producing a robotaxi next year. Ultimately, management believes FSD technology will be the company's most important source of profitability.Tesla sits in front of a sizable market opportunity. Global electric car sales are expected to grow at 23% annually to hit $1.1 trillion by 2030, according to Precedence Research. And the autonomous vehicles market is expected to grow at 40% annually to reach $2.1 trillion by 2030, according to Research and Markets. As the current leader in battery electric vehicles and one of the leading AI companies (according to Musk), Tesla is set to benefit from both tailwinds. The stock currently trades at 8 times sales, a very rich valuation for a carmaker.Investors must decide whether Tesla is a carmaker that dabbles in AI, or an AI company that makes cars. Those who find the second description more accurate should consider buying a few shares of this growth stock today. If Tesla does indeed disrupt the mobility industry with robotaxis, its revenue (and margins) could grow quickly and the current valuation multiple could fall in a hurry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":12,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9946464546,"gmtCreate":1681025843286,"gmtModify":1681025847188,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":25,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9946464546","repostId":"2325952321","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2325952321","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1681011787,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2325952321?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-09 11:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These 3 Stocks Could Race Higher at the Drop of a Hat","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2325952321","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Tech stocks are on fire in 2023 -- and these three are the cream of the crop.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The first quarter of 2023 is in the books, and it was a decent one for the major indexes. The <strong>Nasdaq</strong> <strong>Composite</strong>, <strong>S&amp;P 500</strong>, and <strong>Dow Jones Industrial Average</strong> gained 16.7%, 7%, and 0.4%, respectively.</p><p>With the tech-heavy Nasdaq leading the way higher, some investors are wondering: What technology names are worth owning right now? </p><p>These three Motley Fool contributors are eyeing <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">SoFi Technologies </a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a>. Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>A banking crisis overshadows SoFi&#39;s numerous positives</h2><p><strong>Justin Pope</strong> <strong>(SoFi Technologies):</strong> It&#39;s been tough living as a digital bank for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SOFI\">SoFi Technologies</a>. The company&#39;s been plagued by a student loan freeze for several years, and the recent banking crisis has only shaken investor confidence in smaller lenders. Shares are trading near the low end of their 52-week range, down 77% from their high.</p><p>But the bank&#39;s on firmer ground than its share price might indicate. First, SoFi is well capitalized -- well above the minimum financial ratios regulators mandate, and its depositor base of 5.2 million members is more diversified than a bank like Silicon Valley Bank. Second, there&#39;s a student loan freeze in effect, which has hurt SoFi&#39;s loan refinancing business, which was huge before the pandemic.</p><p>However, it hasn&#39;t stopped SoFi from marching toward profitability. The company posted non-GAAP (adjusted) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of $143 million in 2022 and is guiding for $260 million to $280 million for 2023. Importantly, management expects net income under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to turn positive by the end of the year.</p><p>Between a banking crisis and a student loan freeze, it&#39;s hard to imagine what else could go wrong for SoFi. That&#39;s why the stock could rebound when the smoke clears. The student loan freeze seems on course to end later this year, and it looks like the government will do what&#39;s needed to ensure confidence in the banking system.</p><p>Then, investors might better appreciate SoFi&#39;s rapidly growing user base, looming profitability, and strong balance sheet. CEO Anthony Noto reiterated his confidence, buying roughly $1.2 million in stock last month. You can&#39;t predict when, but SoFi&#39;s stock could spring higher at the first sign of positive news.</p><h2>The tech conglomerate that may soon seem &#39;unlimited&#39;</h2><p><strong>Will Healy</strong> <strong>(Sea Limited): </strong>Admittedly, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited</a> stock may appear to have moved too far too fast. Since falling to a low of just under $41 per share last November, it has more than doubled.</p><p>Still, in other ways, Sea Limited appears far from done. The tech conglomerate, which includes the e-commerce business Shopee and fintech segment Sea Money, has drawn investor interest amid a push to cut costs and turn profitable.</p><p>Sea Money has continued to grow at a triple-digit clip, though it only makes up around 10% of the company&#39;s revenue. Earlier in the year, Shopee reversed most of its expansion plans outside its core Southeast Asian market. But the strategy seems to have worked as e-commerce revenue of $7.3 billion rose 42% in 2022 compared with the prior year.</p><p>Additionally, the factor that could make Sea Limited&#39;s stock fully turn around is the reversal of declining revenue in its gaming segment, Garena. Garena&#39;s <em>Free Fire </em>was the world&#39;s most downloaded mobile game from 2019 to 2021, but its popularity has waned amid a decline in the gaming industry. Consequently, Garena&#39;s revenue dropped 9% in 2022 to $3.9 billion.</p><p>However, Newzoo forecasts player numbers will grow from 3.2 billion in 2022 to 3.5 billion by 2025. Such growth should help reverse declines in the gaming industry. That could accelerate Sea Limited&#39;s revenue growth, which in 2022 surged 25% to $12.4 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7498cb1aa3bf16d1bb26dcaf39931135\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\"/></p><p>SE PS Ratio data by YCharts</p><p>Moreover, despite the recent surge in the stock price, investors should remember that Sea Limited sells at a discount of more than 70% from its all-time high in the fall of 2021. As a result, it trades at a P/S ratio of 4. That is just above all-time lows and well below the record sales multiple of just above 30 in 2021.</p><p>Such a valuation could induce investors to brave the waters. And given the entertainment stock&#39;s potential when all three segments are in a growth mode, the new bull market in Sea Limited stock may have only just begun.</p><h2>Adobe&#39;s stock is still a bargain</h2><p><strong>Jake Lerch (Adobe):</strong> Shares of software giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">Adobe</a> have been on a wild ride over the last year and a half. The stock is still more than 44% off its all-time high of $688.37, even after rallying 35% over the last six months.</p><p>Yet, to my eye, Adobe has room to run higher from here -- <em>much higher</em>. Why? Two reasons.</p><p>First, Wall Street has been wrong. Many analysts have expected a pullback in demand for Adobe&#39;s products that just hasn&#39;t materialized. The company has beaten earnings expectations in four straight quarters. Adobe&#39;s rockstar lineup of products, including Creative Cloud, Document Cloud, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXP.AU\">Experience</a> Cloud, continue to draw in new customers and help retain existing ones.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a973d5cfbfe76f197b5f5eae7c9931b1\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\"/></p><p>ADBE data by YCharts</p><p>Second, Adobe&#39;s valuation still looks attractive. As you can see above, Adobe&#39;s stock price has more or less tracked its trailing-12-month revenue over the last 10 years. However, right now, its stock price is lagging far behind its revenue. This is why the company&#39;s price-to-sales ratio stands at 10, below its long-term average of 12.</p><p>I expect Adobe will deliver solid sales and earnings results going forward -- thanks to its subscription model and its best-of-breed creative software solutions.

The Nasdaq Composite, S&P 500, and Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 16.7%, 7%, and 0.4%, respectively.With the tech-heavy Nasdaq leading the way higher, some investors are wondering: What technology names are worth owning right now? These three Motley Fool contributors are eyeing Sea Limited , SoFi Technologies , and Adobe. Here's why.A banking crisis overshadows SoFi's numerous positivesJustin Pope (SoFi Technologies): It's been tough living as a digital bank for SoFi Technologies. The company's been plagued by a student loan freeze for several years, and the recent banking crisis has only shaken investor confidence in smaller lenders. Shares are trading near the low end of their 52-week range, down 77% from their high.But the bank's on firmer ground than its share price might indicate. First, SoFi is well capitalized -- well above the minimum financial ratios regulators mandate, and its depositor base of 5.2 million members is more diversified than a bank like Silicon Valley Bank. Second, there's a student loan freeze in effect, which has hurt SoFi's loan refinancing business, which was huge before the pandemic.However, it hasn't stopped SoFi from marching toward profitability. The company posted non-GAAP (adjusted) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of $143 million in 2022 and is guiding for $260 million to $280 million for 2023. Importantly, management expects net income under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to turn positive by the end of the year.Between a banking crisis and a student loan freeze, it's hard to imagine what else could go wrong for SoFi. That's why the stock could rebound when the smoke clears. The student loan freeze seems on course to end later this year, and it looks like the government will do what's needed to ensure confidence in the banking system.Then, investors might better appreciate SoFi's rapidly growing user base, looming profitability, and strong balance sheet. CEO Anthony Noto reiterated his confidence, buying roughly $1.2 million in stock last month. You can't predict when, but SoFi's stock could spring higher at the first sign of positive news.The tech conglomerate that may soon seem 'unlimited'Will Healy (Sea Limited): Admittedly, Sea Limited stock may appear to have moved too far too fast. Since falling to a low of just under $41 per share last November, it has more than doubled.Still, in other ways, Sea Limited appears far from done. The tech conglomerate, which includes the e-commerce business Shopee and fintech segment Sea Money, has drawn investor interest amid a push to cut costs and turn profitable.Sea Money has continued to grow at a triple-digit clip, though it only makes up around 10% of the company's revenue. Earlier in the year, Shopee reversed most of its expansion plans outside its core Southeast Asian market. But the strategy seems to have worked as e-commerce revenue of $7.3 billion rose 42% in 2022 compared with the prior year.Additionally, the factor that could make Sea Limited's stock fully turn around is the reversal of declining revenue in its gaming segment, Garena. Garena's Free Fire was the world's most downloaded mobile game from 2019 to 2021, but its popularity has waned amid a decline in the gaming industry. Consequently, Garena's revenue dropped 9% in 2022 to $3.9 billion.However, Newzoo forecasts player numbers will grow from 3.2 billion in 2022 to 3.5 billion by 2025. Such growth should help reverse declines in the gaming industry. That could accelerate Sea Limited's revenue growth, which in 2022 surged 25% to $12.4 billion.SE PS Ratio data by YChartsMoreover, despite the recent surge in the stock price, investors should remember that Sea Limited sells at a discount of more than 70% from its all-time high in the fall of 2021. As a result, it trades at a P/S ratio of 4. That is just above all-time lows and well below the record sales multiple of just above 30 in 2021.Such a valuation could induce investors to brave the waters. And given the entertainment stock's potential when all three segments are in a growth mode, the new bull market in Sea Limited stock may have only just begun.Adobe's stock is still a bargainJake Lerch (Adobe): Shares of software giant Adobe have been on a wild ride over the last year and a half. The stock is still more than 44% off its all-time high of $688.37, even after rallying 35% over the last six months.Yet, to my eye, Adobe has room to run higher from here -- much higher. Why? Two reasons.First, Wall Street has been wrong. Many analysts have expected a pullback in demand for Adobe's products that just hasn't materialized. The company has beaten earnings expectations in four straight quarters. Adobe's rockstar lineup of products, including Creative Cloud, Document Cloud, and Experience Cloud, continue to draw in new customers and help retain existing ones.ADBE data by YChartsSecond, Adobe's valuation still looks attractive. As you can see above, Adobe's stock price has more or less tracked its trailing-12-month revenue over the last 10 years. However, right now, its stock price is lagging far behind its revenue. This is why the company's price-to-sales ratio stands at 10, below its long-term average of 12.I expect Adobe will deliver solid sales and earnings results going forward -- thanks to its subscription model and its best-of-breed creative software solutions. And if that happens, Adobe's stock could be off to the races.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":220,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940838007,"gmtCreate":1677801656409,"gmtModify":1677801660670,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":24,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940838007","repostId":"2316960400","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":40,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9948159747,"gmtCreate":1680654291090,"gmtModify":1680654294820,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":23,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9948159747","repostId":"2325438792","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2325438792","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1680648766,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2325438792?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-05 06:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street Ends Down As Weak Economic Data Fuels Recession Fears","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2325438792","media":"Reuters","summary":"*U.S. factory orders, job openings fall in February*Virgin Orbit slumps after filing for bankruptcy*","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>*U.S. factory orders, job openings fall in February</p><p>*Virgin Orbit slumps after filing for bankruptcy</p><p>*AMC Entertainment falls after litigation deal</p><p>*Indexes: S&amp;P 500 -0.58%, Nasdaq -0.52%, Dow -0.59%</p><p>April 4 (Reuters) - Wall Street closed lower on Tuesday after evidence of a cooling economy exacerbated worries that the Federal Reserve&#39;s campaign to rein in decades-high inflation may cause a deep downturn.</p><p>All three major indexes fell as data showed U.S. job openings in February dropped to the lowest level in nearly two years, suggesting that the labor market was cooling, while factory orders fell for a second straight month.</p><p>Data on Monday had also pointed to weakening U.S. manufacturing activity.</p><p>&#34;The number of job openings has decreased, which makes people worry that hiring is going too slow, and that will be bad for the economy.

Photographer: Stephanie Keith/Bloomberg</span></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">First Republic Bank’s week of harrowing stock drops and urgent work toward a deal to shore up its balance sheet ended with the lender’s fate in limbo.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., keeping tabs on the bank’s deposits and funding, hasn’t reached a decision on intervening at the troubled lender, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter. Some senior officials there expect the firm’s management will continue pursuing talks for a private-sector deal to bolster its finances.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Still, the FDIC’s position could change if there’s an unforeseen development.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Meanwhile, larger lenders have started preparing for the possibility that the government seizes First Republic and asks them to bid on the bank or its assets, people close to the situation said, asking not to be named describing confidential preparations. While banks have been reluctant to put up money to rescue the firm in recent days, some are keen to make offers if it’s auctioned.</p><p>JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. and PNC Financial Services Group Inc. are among the big banks vying to buy First Republic in a deal that would come after a government seizure, the Wall Street Journal reported late Friday, citing people with knowledge of the matter. A seizure could take place as soon as this weekend, the newspaper said.  </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">A spokesperson for the FDIC said late Friday that the agency doesn’t comment on “operating institutions.” Representatives for California’s banking regulator, which would take the lead in deciding whether the San Francisco-based lender has failed, didn’t respond to requests for comment.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">“We are engaged in discussions with multiple parties about our strategic options while continuing to serve our clients,” a spokesperson for First Republic said in a statement at the close of regular business in California.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The company’s stock plunged by more than half at one point on Friday amid renewed concern that the FDIC might seize the bank. A few proposals for an industry-led rescue have surfaced in recent days. But they have yet to yield any deal.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">With the stock down 97% this year, bankers and regulators have been stuck in a standoff, with both sides seeking to avoid steep losses and hoping the other will handle the troubled firm. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">A group of 11 banks that deposited $30 billion into First Republic last month to give it time to find a solution have proved reluctant to invest in the firm itself, even if that means they might lose some cash in their accounts. Some stronger firms are waiting for the government to offer aid or put the bank in receivership, a resolution they view as cleaner — and potentially ending with a sale of business lines or assets at attractive prices.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">But receivership is an outcome the FDIC would prefer to avoid in part because of the multibillion-dollar hit to its own deposit insurance fund.

Photographer: Stephanie Keith/BloombergFirst Republic Bank’s week of harrowing stock drops and urgent work toward a deal to shore up its balance sheet ended with the lender’s fate in limbo.The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., keeping tabs on the bank’s deposits and funding, hasn’t reached a decision on intervening at the troubled lender, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter. Some senior officials there expect the firm’s management will continue pursuing talks for a private-sector deal to bolster its finances.Still, the FDIC’s position could change if there’s an unforeseen development.Meanwhile, larger lenders have started preparing for the possibility that the government seizes First Republic and asks them to bid on the bank or its assets, people close to the situation said, asking not to be named describing confidential preparations. While banks have been reluctant to put up money to rescue the firm in recent days, some are keen to make offers if it’s auctioned.JPMorgan Chase & Co. and PNC Financial Services Group Inc. are among the big banks vying to buy First Republic in a deal that would come after a government seizure, the Wall Street Journal reported late Friday, citing people with knowledge of the matter. A seizure could take place as soon as this weekend, the newspaper said.  A spokesperson for the FDIC said late Friday that the agency doesn’t comment on “operating institutions.” Representatives for California’s banking regulator, which would take the lead in deciding whether the San Francisco-based lender has failed, didn’t respond to requests for comment.“We are engaged in discussions with multiple parties about our strategic options while continuing to serve our clients,” a spokesperson for First Republic said in a statement at the close of regular business in California.The company’s stock plunged by more than half at one point on Friday amid renewed concern that the FDIC might seize the bank. A few proposals for an industry-led rescue have surfaced in recent days. But they have yet to yield any deal.With the stock down 97% this year, bankers and regulators have been stuck in a standoff, with both sides seeking to avoid steep losses and hoping the other will handle the troubled firm. A group of 11 banks that deposited $30 billion into First Republic last month to give it time to find a solution have proved reluctant to invest in the firm itself, even if that means they might lose some cash in their accounts. Some stronger firms are waiting for the government to offer aid or put the bank in receivership, a resolution they view as cleaner — and potentially ending with a sale of business lines or assets at attractive prices.But receivership is an outcome the FDIC would prefer to avoid in part because of the multibillion-dollar hit to its own deposit insurance fund. The agency is already planning to impose a special assessment on the industry to cover the cost of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank’s failures last month.Weighing on First Republic’s balance sheet is a mountain of low-interest loans, including an unusually large portfolio of jumbo mortgages to wealthy clients. Such debts have lost value amid interest-rate hikes.The collapse of SVB in March stoked concerns about the soundness of regional lenders with such holdings, prompting wealthy depositors and businesses with uninsured deposits to yank their money. First Republic was left paying more for funding than it earns on many of its assets.Still, the bank’s executives emphasized in an earnings report this week, the firm has ample cash reserves to continue meeting clients’ needs.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":242,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9949634181,"gmtCreate":1678581075343,"gmtModify":1678581079117,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":19,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9949634181","repostId":"2318767148","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":32,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940351530,"gmtCreate":1677716085320,"gmtModify":1677716089057,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":19,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940351530","repostId":"2316241106","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2316241106","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1677711956,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2316241106?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-02 07:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P, Nasdaq Weak As Manufacturing Stokes Fed Concerns","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2316241106","media":"Reuters","summary":"Two-year Treasury yield jumps to 2007 highNovavax slumps on going concern worriesTesla slips ahead o","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Two-year Treasury yield jumps to 2007 high</li><li>Novavax slumps on going concern worries</li><li>Tesla slips ahead of investor day</li></ul><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ded13391d1772e0ac524b6ef82aaf772\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"1920\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>NEW YORK, March 1 (Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq fell for a second straight session on Wednesday as Treasury yields jumped after manufacturing data indicated inflation is likely to remain stubbornly high, while comments from Federal Reserve policymakers supported a hawkish policy stance.</p><p>The yield on 10-year notes topped 4% for the first time since November, reaching a high of 4.01%, after the Institute for Supply Management&#39;s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ISM\">$(ISM)$</a> survey showed U.S. manufacturing contracted in February and prices for raw materials increased last month.</p><p>After the data was released, the two-year    U.S. Treasury yield, which typically moves in step with interest rate expectations, gained on the day after reaching 4.904%, its highest since 2007.

It was last up 8.4 basis points at 4.881%.\"You could see the market kind of deteriorated a little bit, yields started climbing after that February ISM manufacturing report.

This article will give readers an overview of the best tech stocks to sell to maximize their returns.</p><p>The U.S., European, and Chinese stock markets have experienced positive gains since the start of the year. However, despite this recent bullishness,<b>UBS Global Wealth Management</b> cautioned against being over-confident in the sustainability of this run. Factors like high inflation and other market conditions could still be unfavorable for stocks in the early months of 2023.</p><p>Mark Haefele, Chief Investment Officer at UBS Global Wealth Management, voiced his concern over the possibility of a ‘head fake’ rally, and that economic data may not achieve the market’s expectations in a recent note to clients. He cautioned that it’s still too soon to infer that inflation is no longer a concern. Additionally, he highlighted the possibility of core inflation being higher than anticipated, along with other potential risks facing the markets.</p><p>Investors could not be happier with the positive start to this year. However, they should also remain watchful. Although the market is looking up, economic data are still uncertain. Thus, it’s far from guaranteed that this impressive progress we’ve seen will remain for the rest of 2023.</p><p>Accordingly, for those looking to trim equity exposure, here are three stocks to sell.</p><p><b>DocuSign (DOCU)</b></p><p><b>DocuSign</b>(NASDAQ: <b><u>DOCU</u></b>) is a company providing digital signature solutions to a broad base of large and small corporate clients. This business model has made the company one of the most sought-after tech stocks during the pandemic. Indeed, as businesses of all sizes adjusted their operations as a result of the pandemic, many leaned on digital solutions like electronic signatures and the document management tools that DocuSign offers.</p><p>DocuSign’s yearly revenue has seen tremendous growth in the last three years. In 2022, the company reported $2.1 billion in revenue, a 45% increase on a year-over-year basis. Impressively, 2021’s $1.453 billion in revenue was also roughly 50% higher over 2020, meaning this is a compounder with some serious clout. That said, revenue growth has slowed of late, with the company reporting top-line growth of 24.5% for the 12 months ended Oct. 31, 2022.</p><p>Growth has slowed further, to just 18%, as pr the company’s recently-released Q3 and fiscal 2023 financial results. Subscription income came in at $624.1 million, an increase of 18% compared to the year prior. Professional services and other revenue registered a boost of 27%, amounting to $21.4 million compared to the same period last year. However, the numbers signify a decrease sequentially, and reflect a general decline in growth for this previous high-flyer.</p><p>In addition, the dip in the residential real estate market is a cause for worry. When he published his piece on tech stocks to sell in December, <i>InvestorPlace</i> contributor Larry Ramer made an astute evaluation. That is, that the housing market was among the driving forces behind this organization’s success. The data proves Ramer is right.</p><p>Unfortunately, the US housing market saw another decline in December, extending the slump to four consecutive months in 2022. This marked a difficult year for the industry, which experienced its first annual decrease in housing starts since 2009.</p><p>Many people, including Larry, used the software when purchasing a house. However, the market downturn has intensified downward pressure on DocuSign, which is why it is on this list of tech stocks to sell.</p><p><b>Opendoor (OPEN)</b></p><p><b>Opendoor Technologies</b>(NASDAQ: <b><u>OPEN</u></b>) is bringing about a revolution in the home-buying process with its disruptive technology. It aims to provide an automated solution for a smoother, quicker, and more convenient buying experience. Accordingly, it’s no surprise to see the influx of investors to this stock, when it made its debut in 2020.</p><p>In 2020, when Opendoor made its stock market debut, investors swarmed to the investment opportunity. This was at the pandemic’s peak, when investors were flush with cash and looking for a place to grow it. As a result, the stock did very well during its initial few weeks, surging in value as speculators entered the market.</p><p>However, Opendoor’s stock price has hit a rough patch over the past year. This is primarily due to increasingly bearish market sentiment. OPEN stock has lows two-thirds of its value over the past year, with expectations building that more in the way of declines could be on the horizon.</p><p>That’s largely due to the widespread aforementioned decline in the real estate market. Higher interest rates have killed this market, with home starts seeing one of the worst declines on record. <b>Redfin</b> anticipates that there will be a 16% decline in the number of existing home sales from 2022 to 2023, resulting in 4.3 million total sales. According to the company’s report, buyers are hesitant to make purchases due to affordability issues such as inflation, higher mortgage rates, and pricey homes, along with the possibility of an economic recession. <b>Morgan Stanley</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MS</u></b>) experts are also anticipating a fall in the housing sector by 2023, which could be damaging to those who bought their homes the previous year in 2022.</p><p>Undoubtedly, Opendoor’s business model is disruptive. But market trends are going against the stock, making this a top stock to sell in my books right now.</p><p><b>Silvergate Capital Corporation (SI)</b></p><p>Ah, how time flies! It seems like yesterday we were all discussing <b>Silvergate Capital</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SI</u></b>), a Californian bank that mainly specializes in cryptocurrency transactions. However, after the epic downturn in the crypto markets and the spectacular collapse of FTX, Silvergate Capital is on the ropes.</p><p>On Jan. 17, Silvergate Capital revealed its fiscal Q4 earnings, recording a net loss of $1.0 billion or ($33.16 per share). Average digital asset deposits declined to $7.3 billion from the prior quarter’s $12.0 billion. Following these results, investors have clearly priced in worries about a run on the bank, which could lead to a collapse in Silvergate Capital in short order.

This article will give readers an overview of the best tech stocks to sell to maximize their returns.The U.S., European, and Chinese stock markets have experienced positive gains since the start of the year. However, despite this recent bullishness,UBS Global Wealth Management cautioned against being over-confident in the sustainability of this run. Factors like high inflation and other market conditions could still be unfavorable for stocks in the early months of 2023.Mark Haefele, Chief Investment Officer at UBS Global Wealth Management, voiced his concern over the possibility of a ‘head fake’ rally, and that economic data may not achieve the market’s expectations in a recent note to clients. He cautioned that it’s still too soon to infer that inflation is no longer a concern. Additionally, he highlighted the possibility of core inflation being higher than anticipated, along with other potential risks facing the markets.Investors could not be happier with the positive start to this year. However, they should also remain watchful. Although the market is looking up, economic data are still uncertain. Thus, it’s far from guaranteed that this impressive progress we’ve seen will remain for the rest of 2023.Accordingly, for those looking to trim equity exposure, here are three stocks to sell.DocuSign (DOCU)DocuSign(NASDAQ: DOCU) is a company providing digital signature solutions to a broad base of large and small corporate clients. This business model has made the company one of the most sought-after tech stocks during the pandemic. Indeed, as businesses of all sizes adjusted their operations as a result of the pandemic, many leaned on digital solutions like electronic signatures and the document management tools that DocuSign offers.DocuSign’s yearly revenue has seen tremendous growth in the last three years. In 2022, the company reported $2.1 billion in revenue, a 45% increase on a year-over-year basis. Impressively, 2021’s $1.453 billion in revenue was also roughly 50% higher over 2020, meaning this is a compounder with some serious clout. That said, revenue growth has slowed of late, with the company reporting top-line growth of 24.5% for the 12 months ended Oct. 31, 2022.Growth has slowed further, to just 18%, as pr the company’s recently-released Q3 and fiscal 2023 financial results. Subscription income came in at $624.1 million, an increase of 18% compared to the year prior. Professional services and other revenue registered a boost of 27%, amounting to $21.4 million compared to the same period last year. However, the numbers signify a decrease sequentially, and reflect a general decline in growth for this previous high-flyer.In addition, the dip in the residential real estate market is a cause for worry. When he published his piece on tech stocks to sell in December, InvestorPlace contributor Larry Ramer made an astute evaluation. That is, that the housing market was among the driving forces behind this organization’s success. The data proves Ramer is right.Unfortunately, the US housing market saw another decline in December, extending the slump to four consecutive months in 2022. This marked a difficult year for the industry, which experienced its first annual decrease in housing starts since 2009.Many people, including Larry, used the software when purchasing a house. However, the market downturn has intensified downward pressure on DocuSign, which is why it is on this list of tech stocks to sell.Opendoor (OPEN)Opendoor Technologies(NASDAQ: OPEN) is bringing about a revolution in the home-buying process with its disruptive technology. It aims to provide an automated solution for a smoother, quicker, and more convenient buying experience. Accordingly, it’s no surprise to see the influx of investors to this stock, when it made its debut in 2020.In 2020, when Opendoor made its stock market debut, investors swarmed to the investment opportunity. This was at the pandemic’s peak, when investors were flush with cash and looking for a place to grow it. As a result, the stock did very well during its initial few weeks, surging in value as speculators entered the market.However, Opendoor’s stock price has hit a rough patch over the past year. This is primarily due to increasingly bearish market sentiment. OPEN stock has lows two-thirds of its value over the past year, with expectations building that more in the way of declines could be on the horizon.That’s largely due to the widespread aforementioned decline in the real estate market. Higher interest rates have killed this market, with home starts seeing one of the worst declines on record. Redfin anticipates that there will be a 16% decline in the number of existing home sales from 2022 to 2023, resulting in 4.3 million total sales. According to the company’s report, buyers are hesitant to make purchases due to affordability issues such as inflation, higher mortgage rates, and pricey homes, along with the possibility of an economic recession. Morgan Stanley(NYSE:MS) experts are also anticipating a fall in the housing sector by 2023, which could be damaging to those who bought their homes the previous year in 2022.Undoubtedly, Opendoor’s business model is disruptive. But market trends are going against the stock, making this a top stock to sell in my books right now.Silvergate Capital Corporation (SI)Ah, how time flies! It seems like yesterday we were all discussing Silvergate Capital(NYSE:SI), a Californian bank that mainly specializes in cryptocurrency transactions. However, after the epic downturn in the crypto markets and the spectacular collapse of FTX, Silvergate Capital is on the ropes.On Jan. 17, Silvergate Capital revealed its fiscal Q4 earnings, recording a net loss of $1.0 billion or ($33.16 per share). Average digital asset deposits declined to $7.3 billion from the prior quarter’s $12.0 billion. Following these results, investors have clearly priced in worries about a run on the bank, which could lead to a collapse in Silvergate Capital in short order. Fortunately, this hasn’t occurred yet, due in part to the company’s reported total deposits of $3.8 billion at the end of the quarter.That said, during the quarter, management reported $5.2 billion in sales of debt and securities at a disadvantageous expense of $718 million, to ensure sufficient liquidity. The firm reported a massive loss, and the company’s stock price reflected this reality as well.Those who think that this lower stock price provides a great entry point should be warned. The selling pressure with SI stock may be far from over. Many investors didn’t think the company will be able to make it out of this crypto winter. And while Silvergate Capital may continue to sustain itself temporarily on trading fees from its exchange-traded products, it’s unclear how much investor demand will remain for its shares, should another contagion event take place.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":19,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9960783217,"gmtCreate":1668259296739,"gmtModify":1676538034843,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9960783217","repostId":"1137748454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137748454","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1668216439,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137748454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-12 09:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A $32 Billion Crypto Empire Has Crashed.

FTX Group, his conglomerate of 130 entities—including the FTX exchange and Alameda Research, a market maker and trading firm—filed for U.S. bankruptcy protection on Friday.</p><p>Bankman-Fried resigned as CEO from the group, issuing a mea culpa on Twitter. “I’m really sorry, again, that we ended up here,” he said in a stream of tweets. “I’m piecing together all of the details, but I was shocked to see things unravel the way they did earlier this week,” he added.</p><p>Bankman-Fried wasn’t the only one expressing shock. FTX, the world’s second largest crypto exchange, collapsed over a few chaotic days, brought down by a liquidity crisis as customers lost confidence in the exchange. Essentially, it was an old-fashioned run on the bank, with no federal regulator or private entity willing to prop up FTX, unwind the operations, or contain the fallout.</p><p>The collateral damage is likely to be vast. FTX and Alameda played central roles in crypto trading, market making, lending, and bailouts of other firms. FTX had attracted investment from prominent venture-capital firms, pension funds, and hedge funds. Some of them invested in FTX at a valuation of $32 billion just a few months ago. They are now marking down their investments to zero.</p><p>The unraveling has already knocked more than $125 billion in market cap off Bitcoin and other tokens. FTX has frozen customer accounts. Its U.S. entity, FTX US, had said it would probably halt trading within days, though its website was still operational on Friday, including a pitch to “join some of the world’s biggest names who trust FTX,” showing photos of Tom Brady and Stephen Curry.</p><p>Other entities that have paused withdrawals include BlockFi, a crypto lender that FTX bailed out last summer. More entities and counterparties with exposure to FTX are likely to be revealed as the bankruptcy proceedings get rolling.</p><p>Regulators are now under far more pressure to ramp up supervision of an industry that has so far thrived on opacity and a lack of clear rules. “I hope some of these firms take note and actually work with us and get registered, or we’ll certainly be doing what we need to do, being a cop on the beat,” said Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler at a conference on Wednesday.</p><p>It’s unclear how crypto will clean up its latest mess. Indeed, what little credibility crypto had is being tested anew, raising questions about whether the whole edifice will simply crumble under its own weight.</p><p>“Those who were skeptical about crypto will become even more skeptical. They’re not wrong to feel that way,” says Ric Edelman, head of the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals.</p><p>Before his empire fell apart, Bankman-Fried had been viewed as a kind of crypto philosopher king. A 30-year-old Californian, educated at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he built FTX and Alameda into the very fabric of crypto infrastructure, playing a leading role in derivatives, trading, and market-making activity.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c380e6b530fb0a8f21ae5df380dcfabf\" tg-width=\"939\" tg-height=\"639\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>As FTX and its related entities grew into a multibillion-dollar empire, Bankman-Fried parlayed his wealth and prominence widely. He spent millions on sports, including naming rights to the Miami Heat’s National Basketball Association arena and sponsorship of Formula 1 racing cars. He also promised to donate most of his fortune to charities. And he became a fixture on Capitol Hill, arguing for regulation and donating to political campaigns in a bid to bring crypto into the mainstream.</p><p>Bankman-Fried also built a reputation as a crypto white knight—a banker of last resort. BlockFi and Voyager Digitalboth got bailouts or lines of credit, though Voyager didn’t survive. Bankman-Fried also invested in other crypto platforms, including Robinhood Markets (ticker: HOOD), owning a 7.5% stake in the company worth $570 million at recent prices.</p><p>The collapse of FTX could prove costly, well beyond crypto. FTX’s venture-capital investors included big names like Sequoia Capital, Tiger Global Management, and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan. Sequoia now says that its investment is worth zero.</p><p>Analysts expect more companies to reveal exposures and losses. “There could be other cascading failures that could emerge,” says Lucas Nuzzi, head of research and development at Coin Metrics, a research firm working on a report that may identify additional counterparties to FTX and Alameda.</p><p>One immediate impact, of course, is sheer fear of crypto. Potential investors in start-ups are now more likely to shy away, says Antonio Juliano, CEO of dYdX, one of the largest decentralized-finance, or DeFi, exchanges. “This will decrease interest in crypto for the short to medium term,” he says.</p><p>There may also be a chill on crypto demand as investors question whether their tokens, custodied through brokerages and exchanges, will be accessible in the event of a bankruptcy. FTX used customer assets for trading at Alameda without their knowledge, according to media reports. When Alameda couldn’t meet its obligations, it spilled over to FTX’s customer base.</p><p>Equity brokerages and exchanges regulated by the SEC would never be allowed to use customer assets in that way. Those lines are largely absent in crypto, however. U.S. exchange are licensed by states as money-transfer businesses. And there is no regulatory body supervising operations of global exchanges like Bahamas-based FTX.</p><p>Coinbase Global (COIN), the largest U.S.-based exchange, said this past week that “there can’t be a run on the bank” at the firm and that it lends customer assets only with approval.</p><p>Nonetheless, the collapse of FTX underscores the market’s concentration in a handful of companies. And it reveals how even two of the big players can shake the foundations.</p><p>FTX’s demise started when CoinDesk reported that Alameda’s balance sheet consisted partly of a token called FTT, which is used for trading and commissions on the FTX exchange. Days later, Changpeng Zhao, the leader of Binance—the world’s largest crypto exchange—said he planned to unload more than $500 million worth of FTT that his firm had acquired.</p><p>With that, the run on FTX began. On Sunday, FTX saw $5 billion in customer withdrawals. Bankman-Fried then sought emerging funding to cover shortfalls, estimated at $8 billion. On Tuesday, Binance appeared to be a savior, signing a letter of intent to buy FTX. The next day, Binance pulled out, saying that “the issues are beyond our control or ability to help.”</p><p>Bankman-Fried has said that he thought it likely that Zhao never intended to buy FTX. “Well played; you won,” he said on Twitter, in an apparent allusion to Zhao taking out a rival.</p><p>FTX did not respond to a request for comment. Binance declined to comment.</p><p>The regulatory fallout is just starting. Democrats in Congress are calling for hearings, and the White House has weighed in. “The most recent news...highlights why prudent regulation of cryptocurrencies is indeed needed,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.</p><p>U.S. enforcement agencies are now expanding inquiries. If the SEC alleges that FTX broke securities laws, it could create liability for the entire industry. “That’s what can really shake the industry,” says Tyler Gellasch, a former SEC senior counsel.</p><p>Representatives for the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.</p><p>Even if FTX’s troubles seem remote, the damage is likely to keep affecting tokens, brokerages like Coinbase and Robinhood, and the many banks, lenders, and tech companies trying to build crypto businesses.</p><p>“FTX and SBF were these megawatt stars in crypto and had garnered a lot of trust, not just among institutional investors but also among regulators,” says Morningstar’s Madeline Hume, referring to Bankman-Fried. “The risk of contagion has never been higher.”</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1610680873436","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>A $32 Billion Crypto Empire Has Crashed.

More entities and counterparties with exposure to FTX are likely to be revealed as the bankruptcy proceedings get rolling.Regulators are now under far more pressure to ramp up supervision of an industry that has so far thrived on opacity and a lack of clear rules. “I hope some of these firms take note and actually work with us and get registered, or we’ll certainly be doing what we need to do, being a cop on the beat,” said Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler at a conference on Wednesday.It’s unclear how crypto will clean up its latest mess. Indeed, what little credibility crypto had is being tested anew, raising questions about whether the whole edifice will simply crumble under its own weight.“Those who were skeptical about crypto will become even more skeptical. They’re not wrong to feel that way,” says Ric Edelman, head of the Digital Assets Council of Financial Professionals.Before his empire fell apart, Bankman-Fried had been viewed as a kind of crypto philosopher king. A 30-year-old Californian, educated at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he built FTX and Alameda into the very fabric of crypto infrastructure, playing a leading role in derivatives, trading, and market-making activity.As FTX and its related entities grew into a multibillion-dollar empire, Bankman-Fried parlayed his wealth and prominence widely. He spent millions on sports, including naming rights to the Miami Heat’s National Basketball Association arena and sponsorship of Formula 1 racing cars. He also promised to donate most of his fortune to charities. And he became a fixture on Capitol Hill, arguing for regulation and donating to political campaigns in a bid to bring crypto into the mainstream.Bankman-Fried also built a reputation as a crypto white knight—a banker of last resort. BlockFi and Voyager Digitalboth got bailouts or lines of credit, though Voyager didn’t survive. Bankman-Fried also invested in other crypto platforms, including Robinhood Markets (ticker: HOOD), owning a 7.5% stake in the company worth $570 million at recent prices.The collapse of FTX could prove costly, well beyond crypto. FTX’s venture-capital investors included big names like Sequoia Capital, Tiger Global Management, and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan. Sequoia now says that its investment is worth zero.Analysts expect more companies to reveal exposures and losses. “There could be other cascading failures that could emerge,” says Lucas Nuzzi, head of research and development at Coin Metrics, a research firm working on a report that may identify additional counterparties to FTX and Alameda.One immediate impact, of course, is sheer fear of crypto. Potential investors in start-ups are now more likely to shy away, says Antonio Juliano, CEO of dYdX, one of the largest decentralized-finance, or DeFi, exchanges. “This will decrease interest in crypto for the short to medium term,” he says.There may also be a chill on crypto demand as investors question whether their tokens, custodied through brokerages and exchanges, will be accessible in the event of a bankruptcy. FTX used customer assets for trading at Alameda without their knowledge, according to media reports. When Alameda couldn’t meet its obligations, it spilled over to FTX’s customer base.Equity brokerages and exchanges regulated by the SEC would never be allowed to use customer assets in that way. Those lines are largely absent in crypto, however. U.S. exchange are licensed by states as money-transfer businesses. And there is no regulatory body supervising operations of global exchanges like Bahamas-based FTX.Coinbase Global (COIN), the largest U.S.-based exchange, said this past week that “there can’t be a run on the bank” at the firm and that it lends customer assets only with approval.Nonetheless, the collapse of FTX underscores the market’s concentration in a handful of companies. And it reveals how even two of the big players can shake the foundations.FTX’s demise started when CoinDesk reported that Alameda’s balance sheet consisted partly of a token called FTT, which is used for trading and commissions on the FTX exchange. Days later, Changpeng Zhao, the leader of Binance—the world’s largest crypto exchange—said he planned to unload more than $500 million worth of FTT that his firm had acquired.With that, the run on FTX began. On Sunday, FTX saw $5 billion in customer withdrawals. Bankman-Fried then sought emerging funding to cover shortfalls, estimated at $8 billion. On Tuesday, Binance appeared to be a savior, signing a letter of intent to buy FTX. The next day, Binance pulled out, saying that “the issues are beyond our control or ability to help.”Bankman-Fried has said that he thought it likely that Zhao never intended to buy FTX. “Well played; you won,” he said on Twitter, in an apparent allusion to Zhao taking out a rival.FTX did not respond to a request for comment. Binance declined to comment.The regulatory fallout is just starting. Democrats in Congress are calling for hearings, and the White House has weighed in. “The most recent news...highlights why prudent regulation of cryptocurrencies is indeed needed,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.U.S. enforcement agencies are now expanding inquiries. If the SEC alleges that FTX broke securities laws, it could create liability for the entire industry. “That’s what can really shake the industry,” says Tyler Gellasch, a former SEC senior counsel.Representatives for the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.Even if FTX’s troubles seem remote, the damage is likely to keep affecting tokens, brokerages like Coinbase and Robinhood, and the many banks, lenders, and tech companies trying to build crypto businesses.“FTX and SBF were these megawatt stars in crypto and had garnered a lot of trust, not just among institutional investors but also among regulators,” says Morningstar’s Madeline Hume, referring to Bankman-Fried. “The risk of contagion has never been higher.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":130,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957009276,"gmtCreate":1676693066196,"gmtModify":1676693071747,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":15,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957009276","repostId":"1100725481","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1100725481","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1676779312,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1100725481?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-19 12:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Reminder: U.S. Market Will Be Closed for Washington's Birthday on Monday, Feb. 20, 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1100725481","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Washington's Birthday (Presidents Day) is around the corner.

But shares were down as much as 15% at one point during the session.</p><p>The sell-off was largely due to Tesla&#39;s disappointing delivery numbers for Q4 2022, which were released on Monday when markets were closed. Tesla achieved record deliveries of 1.314 million vehicles in 2022, including 405,278 deliveries in Q4 alone. But many analysts, such as Wedbush Securities&#39; Dan Ives, were expecting a Q4 delivery figure in the range of 415,000 to 420,000.</p><p>Tesla produced 8.5% more vehicles than it delivered for the quarter. It remains to be seen if the gap between production and deliveries was due to decreasing demand or logistics issues. Either way, the lower-than-expected delivery number adds yet another cause for concern to a stock that is down a staggering 59% in the last three months.</p><p>With the stock hitting a two-year intraday low on Monday, is now the time to go all-in? Or could there be more pain ahead for the electric vehicle (EV) industry leader?</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9647ab92415cfa85ca674b8957ba91b9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"525\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Tesla.</span></p><h2>A tale of two investment theses</h2><p><b>Daniel Foelber:</b> As tempting as it may be to buy Tesla amid the steep sell-off, I think investors should first take a step back and decide what they believe Tesla&#39;s value proposition really is.</p><p>There are many facets to Tesla&#39;s business. The core is the production and sale of electric cars to consumers, which has a lot of room for growth in its own right.</p><p>But the bigger growth story is arguably the company&#39;s penetration into the trucking industry, as well as its proprietary autonomous driving technology.</p><p>There are plenty of companies that are working on lowering emissions for Class 8 trucks by substituting diesel for compressed natural gas or using alternative fuels. But no company has achieved the milestones that Tesla has with its electric semi-truck. In November of last year, Tesla&#39;s semi-truck achieved 500 miles of range with a full load. By comparison, <b>Volvo</b>&#39;s electric FM truck has a range of over 235 miles. However, the electric semi-truck race is just as much about cost and availability as it is about specs. Even so, Tesla&#39;s progress indicates that the electric semi-truck industry could one day end up being more profitable for Tesla than its consumer cars. But that&#39;s a big &#34;if.&#34; And in the meantime, it&#39;s going to cost a lot of money to scale semi-truck production.</p><p>In addition to the semi-truck and autonomous driving markets, there&#39;s the opportunity for Tesla to expand its renewable energy generation and storage efforts, which remain a sideshow at this point.</p><p>Investors interested in the EV industry are getting a rare opportunity to buy Tesla stock at its lowest forward price to earnings ratio ever. However, the stock is still more expensive today than it was from 2016 to 2019 based on its tangible book value.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/febd5852afe0bfb3481820aec769acae\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"496\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TSLA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts</span></p><p>The company is likely to take market share in a slowdown because it has the balance sheet and operating margin to handle weakening demand better than its EV competitors. That advantage alone justifies opening a starter position in Tesla stock.</p><p>But if you&#39;re the kind of investor that believes Tesla has a chance to disrupt the autonomous driving industry and take market share across the transportation industry (including the trucking industry), then making Tesla a top-10 -- or even top-five -- holding makes a lot of sense, especially at this price.</p><h2>Accumulation is a safer approach</h2><p><b>Howard Smith:</b> Investors have had high expectations for Tesla over the past three years, and have assigned it a correspondingly high valuation. But for those that believe the company and EV sector will continue to grow, the 65% drop in the stock price in 2022 provides a compelling opportunity to invest in the industry leader. I do believe that, and I did recently add Tesla shares to my portfolio. That doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s necessarily a good idea to jump in with an outsized position, however.</p><p>That&#39;s especially true with Tesla, since it is in a still-evolving sector and could disappoint investors in the near term. A case in point was its recently announced fourth-quarter vehicle delivery data. The shortfall in deliveries came as demand has been impacted by increasing competition, slowing global economies, and the effects of COVID-19 spreading in China.</p><p>Looking at the bigger picture, however, the company&#39;s growth remains strong. Its production increased 47% in 2022 versus 2021. But deliveries only increased 40%, leading investors to believe Tesla might not, in fact, meet its previous projections to average 50% growth over the next few years.</p><p>That said, now seems to be a good time to begin buying, or adding to your position. Even if Tesla grows earnings by only 30%, it recently was priced at a price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio of below 1.0 based on 2023 estimates. Accumulating shares makes sense now for long-term investors, but there may be better prices to add more later. That&#39;s a good reason not to jump in all at once.</p><h2>Tesla is a battleground stock for a reason</h2><p>As swift and brutal as the Tesla stock sell-off has been, there are valid reasons why Tesla stock deserved to fall. The valuation had gotten nosebleed, to put it lightly. Tesla stock rose 743% in 2020 and then <i>another</i> 50% in 2021 for a two-year gain of -- wait for it -- 1,263%.</p><p>Tesla stock could easily set new all-time highs in the future. The problem with stock prices rising so quickly is that the company has to hit lofty goals to make the valuation reasonable. And as impressive as Tesla&#39;s growth has been, a mix of macroeconomic and self-inflicted challenges are making those lofty goals increasingly unlikely. Missing delivery expectation paired with the possibility of a recession (and slowing demand for discretionary purchases like cars) adds another layer of issues impacting Tesla.</p><p>In sum, now isn&#39;t the time to go all-in on Tesla stock. But it is the perfect opportunity to reassess what your investment thesis for Tesla is, as well as if you want to open a starter position in Tesla or add to Tesla stock now that it&#39;s at a reasonable valuation.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But shares were down as much as 15% at one point during the session.The sell-off was largely due to Tesla's disappointing delivery numbers for Q4 2022, which were released on Monday when markets were closed. Tesla achieved record deliveries of 1.314 million vehicles in 2022, including 405,278 deliveries in Q4 alone. But many analysts, such as Wedbush Securities' Dan Ives, were expecting a Q4 delivery figure in the range of 415,000 to 420,000.Tesla produced 8.5% more vehicles than it delivered for the quarter. It remains to be seen if the gap between production and deliveries was due to decreasing demand or logistics issues. Either way, the lower-than-expected delivery number adds yet another cause for concern to a stock that is down a staggering 59% in the last three months.With the stock hitting a two-year intraday low on Monday, is now the time to go all-in? Or could there be more pain ahead for the electric vehicle (EV) industry leader?Image source: Tesla.A tale of two investment thesesDaniel Foelber: As tempting as it may be to buy Tesla amid the steep sell-off, I think investors should first take a step back and decide what they believe Tesla's value proposition really is.There are many facets to Tesla's business. The core is the production and sale of electric cars to consumers, which has a lot of room for growth in its own right.But the bigger growth story is arguably the company's penetration into the trucking industry, as well as its proprietary autonomous driving technology.There are plenty of companies that are working on lowering emissions for Class 8 trucks by substituting diesel for compressed natural gas or using alternative fuels. But no company has achieved the milestones that Tesla has with its electric semi-truck. In November of last year, Tesla's semi-truck achieved 500 miles of range with a full load. By comparison, Volvo's electric FM truck has a range of over 235 miles. However, the electric semi-truck race is just as much about cost and availability as it is about specs. Even so, Tesla's progress indicates that the electric semi-truck industry could one day end up being more profitable for Tesla than its consumer cars. But that's a big \"if.\" And in the meantime, it's going to cost a lot of money to scale semi-truck production.In addition to the semi-truck and autonomous driving markets, there's the opportunity for Tesla to expand its renewable energy generation and storage efforts, which remain a sideshow at this point.Investors interested in the EV industry are getting a rare opportunity to buy Tesla stock at its lowest forward price to earnings ratio ever. However, the stock is still more expensive today than it was from 2016 to 2019 based on its tangible book value.TSLA PE Ratio (Forward) data by YChartsThe company is likely to take market share in a slowdown because it has the balance sheet and operating margin to handle weakening demand better than its EV competitors. That advantage alone justifies opening a starter position in Tesla stock.But if you're the kind of investor that believes Tesla has a chance to disrupt the autonomous driving industry and take market share across the transportation industry (including the trucking industry), then making Tesla a top-10 -- or even top-five -- holding makes a lot of sense, especially at this price.Accumulation is a safer approachHoward Smith: Investors have had high expectations for Tesla over the past three years, and have assigned it a correspondingly high valuation. But for those that believe the company and EV sector will continue to grow, the 65% drop in the stock price in 2022 provides a compelling opportunity to invest in the industry leader. I do believe that, and I did recently add Tesla shares to my portfolio. That doesn't mean it's necessarily a good idea to jump in with an outsized position, however.That's especially true with Tesla, since it is in a still-evolving sector and could disappoint investors in the near term. A case in point was its recently announced fourth-quarter vehicle delivery data. The shortfall in deliveries came as demand has been impacted by increasing competition, slowing global economies, and the effects of COVID-19 spreading in China.Looking at the bigger picture, however, the company's growth remains strong. Its production increased 47% in 2022 versus 2021. But deliveries only increased 40%, leading investors to believe Tesla might not, in fact, meet its previous projections to average 50% growth over the next few years.That said, now seems to be a good time to begin buying, or adding to your position. Even if Tesla grows earnings by only 30%, it recently was priced at a price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio of below 1.0 based on 2023 estimates. Accumulating shares makes sense now for long-term investors, but there may be better prices to add more later. That's a good reason not to jump in all at once.Tesla is a battleground stock for a reasonAs swift and brutal as the Tesla stock sell-off has been, there are valid reasons why Tesla stock deserved to fall. The valuation had gotten nosebleed, to put it lightly. Tesla stock rose 743% in 2020 and then another 50% in 2021 for a two-year gain of -- wait for it -- 1,263%.Tesla stock could easily set new all-time highs in the future. The problem with stock prices rising so quickly is that the company has to hit lofty goals to make the valuation reasonable. And as impressive as Tesla's growth has been, a mix of macroeconomic and self-inflicted challenges are making those lofty goals increasingly unlikely. Missing delivery expectation paired with the possibility of a recession (and slowing demand for discretionary purchases like cars) adds another layer of issues impacting Tesla.In sum, now isn't the time to go all-in on Tesla stock. But it is the perfect opportunity to reassess what your investment thesis for Tesla is, as well as if you want to open a starter position in Tesla or add to Tesla stock now that it's at a reasonable valuation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":38,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954546894,"gmtCreate":1676505312319,"gmtModify":1676505317273,"author":{"id":"4089242101506430","authorId":"4089242101506430","name":"KPTan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d16c608c834afdaf5cdb810b6196a28","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4089242101506430","authorIdStr":"4089242101506430"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Tq for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Tq for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954546894","repostId":"2311434485","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2311434485","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1676494834,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2311434485?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-16 05:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-S&P 500 Ends Higher After Strong Retail Sales Data","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2311434485","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - The S&P 500 ended higher on Wednesday after stronger-than-expected retail sales data off","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 ended higher on Wednesday after stronger-than-expected retail sales data offered evidence of resilience in the U.S. economy, but gains were capped as investors worried about more interest rate hikes by Federal Reserve in the months ahead.</p><p>A Commerce Department report showed retail sales surged 3% in January as purchases of motor vehicles and other goods pushed the number well past the 1.8% estimate from economists polled by Reuters.</p><p>On Tuesday, data showed U.S. consumer prices accelerated in January, boosting expectations that the Fed will raise the policy rate at least twice more this year to the 5-5.25% range.</p><p>&#34;The good news from retail, and broadly from the stronger economy, has been mostly priced in,&#34; said Ross Mayfield, an investment strategist at Baird in Louisville, Kentucky. &#34;At the same time, that strength has taken market expectations of rate cuts off the table and moved the terminal Fed funds rate a little bit higher.&#34;</p><p>Fueled by a rebound in growth stocks that were hammered in last year&#39;s stock market downturn, the S&amp;P 500 (.SPX) has climbed 8% so far in 2023, while the Nasdaq (.IXIC) has recovered 15%.

No matter how much you love and admire Steve Jobs (like I do), AAPL has been consistently on the verge of chaos under his regain. A simple DuPont analysis elucidates this fundamental shift as shown in the chart below. At the end of the Jobs era (2010 to 2012), AAPL&#39;s profitability, measured by ROCE (return on capital employed ), was an astronomical but unsustainable 443%.

Cook also stabilized and improved the asset utilization, which contributed a positive 6.4% to the ROCE. Then profit margin decrease contributed a negative 20.9% to the ROCE change largely due to intensified competition in the smartphone market.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c8ab37ef43d6df7e215214aaf8e33eb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"303\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: author and Seeking Alpha data.</span></p><p>But he is not making Apple any less innovative</p><p>It is true that Steve Jobs, with Jony Ive behind him, delivered so many groundbreaking innovations and make Apple truly unique.

By the time Cook took over, innovation at the scale of creating an entirely new category like the iPhone or iPod has become much more difficult. As a matter of fact, managing AAPL&#39;s existing iconic products like the iPhone, Mac, and iPad already presents tremendous challenges.

But it has almost become a must-buy product for all iPhone users around the world. As a parent with a teenage kid, I have first-row seat to witness how the AirPods have become a life necessity for almost everyone in his school. Piper Sandler&#39;s data confirms the same trend: 72% of US teens own AirPods (and 87% own iPhones, 87% plan to buy one, and 30% own an Apple Watch).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71cc51fd4c3d9267f6a5c1be91428b97\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: ped30.com</span></p><p>All told, IDC estimates that AirPods sales reached about 120 million pairs in 2021, accounting for half of Apple&#39;s wearable device sales and becoming the fastest-growing product line in this part of the business.

Cook has been building an inseparable ecosystem to connect all Apple devices and bring users a more convenient and seamless Apple experience. I see this grand plan itself as a major innovation of Tim Cook. And I also see that it has been succeeding and with almost limitless potential. Under this grand plan, buying a Mac, or an iPhone is only the beginning of the continuous purchases of other AAPL products.</p><p>Of course, there are definitely risks. Besides all the often-mentioned bearish arguments such as valuation, competition, currency headwinds, and global supply chain disruptions, I see two structural risks. The first one involves its large exposure to China, which is a key market that has been driving a good part of its growth so far. Key risks here include new lockdowns in China due to the COVID resurgence and the escalation of China-US trade tension. The second one involves a remote anti-trust risk with its expansion and dominance in several market segments.</p><p>To conclude, I am siding with Wall Street&#39;s opinion on AAPL this time. My overall impression of its finances, profitability and valuation are summarized below (and detailed in our earlier article here).</p><blockquote><i>Its current price of ~$140 corresponds to about 22x of its FW PE. To me, any valuation near 20x is very attractive for a stock with ROCE (return on capital employed) near 100% like AAPL. At about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates (i.e., before inflation adjustments). And a 22x PE would provide about 5% owners earnings yield, leading to a total return close to double digits. For a stock like AAPL, I am always happy to buy/add when the total annual return is close to 10% or above. A 10% return is healthy enough to start with. Once you adjust for the risks (and I consider the risks from AAPL similar to treasury bonds), a 10% annual return is almost 3x of what you can get from bonds in the long term.</i></blockquote><p>In this article, I want to focus on a bearish argument surrounding Tim Cook. My thesis is to argue that he is only a fantastic professional manager but also an innovator too. The Apple Watch and especially the AirPods are good examples. The design of AirPods inherits the Apple spirit beautifully in my view. The easy-to-use features quickly made the public accept this new product with a premier price tag of around $200. And both the Apple Watch and AirPods have become a trend, an icon, and a culture just like the iPod and iPhone.</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>Apple: I'm Siding With Wall Street This Time</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\">\nApple: I'm Siding With Wall Street This Time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-20 11:59 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4547434-apple-i-am-siding-with-wall-street-this-time><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryUsually, I do not like to follow advice from Wall Street.
