Derivatives are sophisticated financial products initially developed to help professional investors and businesspeople manage financial risks.</p><p>Contracts nearing expiration, including risky &#34;zero days until expiry&#34; options - known as &#34;0DTEs&#34; - have proved particularly popular with the retail crowd, industry experts told MarketWatch. While overall options trading volume has grown rapidly over the past few years, volume in short-dated contracts has climbed even more quickly.</p><h2 id=\"id_3126270719\">The Iron Condor</h2><p>After grabbing the attention of the options market by placing big trades using contracts on the cusp of expiration on an almost daily basis, the 32-year-old Chau in April confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that he was the trader behind the strategy.</p><p>Chau and his tight-knit group of traders became known for a signature strategy that, experts said, made their positions stand out in the market.</p><p>Prior to this public revelation, options industry veteran Brent Kochuba, founder of trading analytics firm SpotGamma, had speculated about the existence of a trader nicknamed &#34;Captain Condor&#34; for more than a year.</p><p>The strategy from which Chau&#39;s &#34;Captain Condor&#34; nickname was derived involved an options play known as an &#34;Iron Condor.&#34;</p><p>Chau and his group applied the strategy in a way that would pay off if the S&amp;P 500 index SPX remained within a predetermined range at the time the options expired.</p><p>When trading Iron Condors, an investor uses multiple contracts to clearly define the potential gain, and the potential loss, from the trade. But according to Kochuba and others, Chau&#39;s application of the Martingale betting system supercharged the risk. It ultimately proved to be the group&#39;s undoing, Kochuba said.</p><p>By Kochuba&#39;s count, the group suffered a loss of more than $30 million on Christmas Eve after selling more than 90,000 Iron Condor spreads. Each spread involved four separate options contracts. Kochuba estimated the group&#39;s total losses for the week at more than $50 million.</p><p>In a post on X published on Christmas Day, Chau said this was the first time his strategy had failed since he started trading it in May 2022.</p><p>&#34;In a nutshell, yes we are hurt but I don&#39;t f-ing give up. We will regroup and try again,&#34; Chau said in the post.</p><p>&#34;David has acknowledged the recent event publicly and is currently rebuilding his models. He is not providing further comment at this time,&#34; a representative for Chau said when reached for comment by MarketWatch.</p><p>Chau said during a recent podcast appearance that his group had grown to include more than 1,000 traders. Newcomers agreed to pay an annual membership fee of $5,500 for access to Chau&#39;s trade alerts, which were distributed via a group Slack channel, according to a membership contract and screenshots of the channel reviewed by MarketWatch.</p><p>One trader who had been a member of the group for about a year told MarketWatch that the strategy had been reliably profitable prior to the wipeout, although he also acknowledged that the group had narrowly avoided a few blowups. One clause in the contract also stipulated that members stay quiet about details of the group&#39;s trades.</p><p>Options market veterans who spoke with MarketWatch said they were surprised the trading style remained profitable for as long as it did.</p><p>&#34;It works incredibly well until all of a sudden you lose everything. And that&#39;s exactly what happened,&#34; SpotGamma&#39;s Kochuba said in an interview with MarketWatch.</p><p>Some members of Chau&#39;s group were novice investors who discovered it through advertisements on social-media platforms like Instagram and Facebook, two people familiar with the business told MarketWatch.</p><h2 id=\"id_1855428026\">&#39;Their first real terminal event&#39;</h2><p>At times, Chau&#39;s positions were so large that the hedging required to manage them could move the market in his favor, said Daniel Roos, a longtime options market professional and founder of VolSignals, a company specializing in options analytics.</p><p>But the predictability of Chau&#39;s strategy, as well as a perfect storm created by a sharp drop in implied volatility during one of the least active periods of the year for stock trading, helped accelerate its undoing. Gauges of implied volatility like the Cboe Volatility Index VIX measure how volatile investors expect the S&amp;P 500 will be over the coming month, using information gleaned from the options market. The index fell to its lowest level in more than a year last week.</p><p>&#34;This is their first real terminal event,&#34; said Roos, who has been monitoring trades put on by Chau&#39;s group for more than a year. &#34;This is the first time, even by his own words, that it has been a quote, unquote, blowout.&#34;</p><p>Chau started employing his trading strategy around the time that Cboe Global Markets Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CBOE\">$(CBOE)$</a>, one of the biggest operators of U.S. options exchanges, expanded its offerings of weekly contracts tied to the S&amp;P 500, allowing investors to trade 0DTEs linked to the index every day of the week. Previously, weekly S&amp;P 500 options only expired on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Investors can also trade 0DTEs tied to other popular indexes and index-tracking exchange-traded funds.</p><p>In an appearance on the &#34;Chris Voss Show&#34; podcast earlier this year, Chau said that his group&#39;s trades were at times even larger than the positions put on by the &#34;JPMorgan options whale&#34; - a fund run by J.P. Morgan Asset Management that sells options to generate income for its investors.</p><p>Like the JPMorgan trades, Chau&#39;s trades carried &#34;fingerprints&#34; that made them detectable by traders with access to the right data and analytical tools, Kochuba said.</p><p>Dmitriy Muravyev, an associate professor of finance at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, has studied retail investors&#39; options trading activities and found that, on average, they lose money.</p><p>Yet the broader U.S. options industry has boomed since the advent of commission-free trading offered by platforms like <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HOOD\">Robinhood</a> Markets Inc. (HOOD) and its competitors. Many retail investors developed a taste for trading options during the pandemic, when millions of Americans were stuck at home with little to do.</p><p>Data from the OCC showed that nearly 14 billion contracts tied to stocks, ETFs or equity indexes like the S&amp;P 500 had changed hands in 2025 as of the end of November, surpassing last year&#39;s total.</p><p>For Chau and members of his investing club, the ability to more easily trade these complex options strategies offered the promise of outsize returns. However, the margin for error is, at times, razor thin.</p></body></html>","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>\"I Experienced A Catastrophic Financial Loss\": How Options Trader 'Captain Condor' Led His Followers To A $50 Million Wipeout</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\">\n\"I Experienced A Catastrophic Financial Loss\": How Options Trader 'Captain Condor' Led His Followers To A $50 Million Wipeout\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2026-01-01 07:47</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>The options trader known as &#34;Captain Condor&#34; and his acolytes experienced a wipeout last week that incinerated tens of millions of dollars and cost some investors their life savings.</p><p>A strategy that had reliably produced winnings for the trader - whose real name is David Chau - and his group of roughly 1,000 investors went awry just before Christmas, saddling them with what was, by one count, a $50 million loss.</p><p>The fatal flaw - what finally caused Chau and his crew to lose most or all of their trading capital - was his use of the Martingale betting system.

In the Martingale system, the bettor doubles down after each loss, hoping to recoup their money and then some.After a streak of mounting losses, Chau and his followers risked it all on Christmas Eve and saw the last of their capital wiped out as the S&P 500 SPX tallied a record closing high.Some members of Chau's group lost hundreds of thousands of dollars - most of their life savings - according to account statements reviewed by MarketWatch. One member launched a GoFundMe page soliciting donations to help cover basic living expenses.\"On Christmas Eve, I experienced a catastrophic financial loss in the stock market. The loss happened suddenly and completely changed my circumstances overnight,\" the page read. The page was created to benefit a Texas man named Wardell \"Audie\" Wright. When contacted by MarketWatch, Wright confirmed that he had created the page and that he was part of Chau's trading group.In interviews on podcasts, Chau said he had calculated the chances of a total loss to be vanishingly small, and that the strategy could still be profitable even if only a small number of trades actually panned out. In digital advertisements circulating on social-media platforms like Instagram and Facebook, Chau and his team had characterized the strategy as a reliable way for investors to generate income with just five minutes of trading a day.The group's misfortune elicited a flurry of commentary and speculation on social-media platforms like X. If nothing else, it has helped to highlight the risks that investors can face in the rapidly growing U.S. options market.The U.S. options industry is on track for a sixth straight year of record activity in 2026, according to data from the Options Clearing Corporation, or OCC. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, retail investors have increasingly become involved in trading derivatives such as options. Derivatives are sophisticated financial products initially developed to help professional investors and businesspeople manage financial risks.Contracts nearing expiration, including risky \"zero days until expiry\" options - known as \"0DTEs\" - have proved particularly popular with the retail crowd, industry experts told MarketWatch. While overall options trading volume has grown rapidly over the past few years, volume in short-dated contracts has climbed even more quickly.The Iron CondorAfter grabbing the attention of the options market by placing big trades using contracts on the cusp of expiration on an almost daily basis, the 32-year-old Chau in April confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that he was the trader behind the strategy.Chau and his tight-knit group of traders became known for a signature strategy that, experts said, made their positions stand out in the market.Prior to this public revelation, options industry veteran Brent Kochuba, founder of trading analytics firm SpotGamma, had speculated about the existence of a trader nicknamed \"Captain Condor\" for more than a year.The strategy from which Chau's \"Captain Condor\" nickname was derived involved an options play known as an \"Iron Condor.\"Chau and his group applied the strategy in a way that would pay off if the S&P 500 index SPX remained within a predetermined range at the time the options expired.When trading Iron Condors, an investor uses multiple contracts to clearly define the potential gain, and the potential loss, from the trade. But according to Kochuba and others, Chau's application of the Martingale betting system supercharged the risk. It ultimately proved to be the group's undoing, Kochuba said.By Kochuba's count, the group suffered a loss of more than $30 million on Christmas Eve after selling more than 90,000 Iron Condor spreads. Each spread involved four separate options contracts. Kochuba estimated the group's total losses for the week at more than $50 million.In a post on X published on Christmas Day, Chau said this was the first time his strategy had failed since he started trading it in May 2022.\"In a nutshell, yes we are hurt but I don't f-ing give up. We will regroup and try again,\" Chau said in the post.\"David has acknowledged the recent event publicly and is currently rebuilding his models. He is not providing further comment at this time,\" a representative for Chau said when reached for comment by MarketWatch.Chau said during a recent podcast appearance that his group had grown to include more than 1,000 traders. Newcomers agreed to pay an annual membership fee of $5,500 for access to Chau's trade alerts, which were distributed via a group Slack channel, according to a membership contract and screenshots of the channel reviewed by MarketWatch.One trader who had been a member of the group for about a year told MarketWatch that the strategy had been reliably profitable prior to the wipeout, although he also acknowledged that the group had narrowly avoided a few blowups. One clause in the contract also stipulated that members stay quiet about details of the group's trades.Options market veterans who spoke with MarketWatch said they were surprised the trading style remained profitable for as long as it did.\"It works incredibly well until all of a sudden you lose everything.

The Singapore-based gaming, e-commerce, and fintech company's revenue rose 5% year over year to $3.1 billion, which missed analysts' estimates by $150 million.It posted a net profit of $331 million, compared to its loss of $931 million a year ago, as its earnings of $0.54 per share beat the consensus forecast by $0.08. That marked its third consecutive quarter of profitability on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but its soft sales growth overshadowed that progress. Let's review Sea's biggest challenges and find out if it's too late to bet on its long-term recovery.Why is Sea's sales growth slowing down?Sea owns Shopee, the top e-commerce marketplace in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. It also owns Garena, a video game publisher that generates most of its bookings from Free Fire, a popular battle-royale mobile game launched in 2017.Both businesses flourished during the pandemic as people shopped online and played video games more frequently. Shopee's revenue rose 160% in 2020 and 136% in 2021, while Garena's bookings grew 80% in 2020 and 44% in 2021.However, both businesses faced a tough slowdown as the pandemic-induced tailwinds dissipated. Shopee struggled with slowing demand for online shopping and fierce competition from Alibaba's Lazada and other regional competitors.Garena's Free Fire was banned in India, one of its fastest-growing markets, in early 2022, while the gaming market's post-pandemic slump and competition from similar titles exacerbated its difficulties.That's why Shopee's revenue only rose 42% in 2022 as Garena's bookings fell 39%. Garena's rapid deterioration was a red flag, since Sea had been largely subsidizing Shopee's loss-leading strategies with Garena's profits. In the second quarter of 2023, Shopee's growth decelerated again as Garena's bookings plummeted.MetricQ2 2022Q3 2022Q4 2022Q1 2023Q2 2023Shopee revenue growth (YOY)51%32%32%36%21%Garena bookings growth (YOY)(40%)(45%)(39%)(42%)(38%)Data source: Sea Limited. YOY = year over year.Why are Sea's profits rising?Sea's sales growth is slowing down, but its profits are rising as it implements aggressive cost-cutting. It laid off thousands of employees, froze salaries, and reduced its bonuses.At Shopee, it hiked its seller fees while reining in its loss-leading subsidies, promotions, and marketing campaigns. It shut down several of its overseas marketplaces in Latin America, India, and Europe.On the gaming front, it focused on monetizing Free Fire's existing players instead of growing its user base or developing new games. It also curbed its investments in its smaller fintechs.Yet all of those cost-cutting moves could also narrow Sea's moat against its top competitors. Its commitment to reining in Shopee's spending coincides with Alibaba's increased investments in Lazada, which only fell behind Shopee in Southeast Asia during the pandemic.Garena's commitment to propping up Free Fire instead of launching fresh games could also weaken its competitive position in the cutthroat mobile gaming market.Lastly, cutting its fintech investments -- which had been aimed at expanding its SeaMoney digital wallet and other payment services -- could erode its defenses against Lazada's HelloPay, which is integrated with Ant Group's AliPay and other digital payment platforms.Its past mistakes are becoming easier to seeSea's slowdown and abrupt cost-cutting suggests it didn't capitalize on its growth spurt during the pandemic to set up the foundations for its future. Unlike the Latin American e-commerce leader MercadoLibre, which pumped a lot of its cash into the expansion of its own fulfillment network to solidify its control of the region, Sea spent a lot of its excess cash on Shopee's expansion into other saturated overseas markets. As a result, Shopee remains heavily dependent on third-party logistics services and partners across its core markets in Southeast Asia and Taiwan.But throughout the first half of the year, Sea gradually ramped up its investments in Shopee's first-party logistics network. These improvements include hundreds of new self-service lockers as well as new delivery scheduling and tracking features. Still, the bears will say it should have implemented those sweeping changes several years ago.Is it too late to buy Sea's stock?For the full year, analysts expect Sea's revenue to dip 2% to $12.2 billion as it generates a net profit of $671 million, compared to a net loss of $1.7 billion in 2022. Based on those estimates, Sea looks cheap trading at less than two times this year's sales.Unfortunately, the company's mistakes are tough to ignore. It balanced its entire business on a single hit video game for far too long, neglected the expansion of Shopee's logistics network in Southeast Asia while pursuing a costly (and largely unsuccessful) overseas expansion, and it's focusing on boosting its profits when it should be far more worried about its long-term growth.So Sea has a lot on its plate as it works to regain investor confidence. In light of these struggles across its entire operation, investors should hold off on buying this beaten-down stock as a turnaround play.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2487,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9073677446,"gmtCreate":1657340760386,"gmtModify":1676535995258,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4095317771450410","idStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"They forget I'm playing GME for fun.

This stock is a falling knife!The stock's beta sensitivity and the market's risk-aversion adds up to a mess.Video game sales continue to slide.Quantitative metrics convey that GME stock is overvalued.As investors, we need to be careful that we don’t treat noise as true parameters. GameStop(NYSE:GME) announced that it is executing a four-for-one stock split to lower its stock price and keep it accessible to its retail investor base.According to Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities: “GameStop management knows that they have a 100% retail shareholder base and so, they are catering to them.”GME stock acted wildly post-announcement, rising by more than 6% in Thursday’s pre-market. However, as the stock is still fundamentally overvalued, many investors run the risk of buying into a fad. As such, I will outline GME stock’s fault lines so that market participants can make an informed investment decision.What a Stock Split Means for GME StockGameStop’s stock split won’t have any economic bearing on investors as they’ll receive additional shares to compensate for a reduced GME stock price. Nonetheless, the company’s stock split could alter GME’s market-based performance. According to an abundance of recent financial literature, a stock split could yield an annual excess market return of approximately 12.15% in the succeeding three years.Although market research tells us that GME’s stock split could yield excess returns, we can’t look at the event in isolation as GME stock faces an array of headwinds. For one, GME is a high-Beta stock, meaning that it is exceptionally susceptible to risk aversion during bear markets.A Fundamental Analysis of GME StockGameStop could face receding video game sales. Recent industry data showed that video game sales slid by19% in May, reaching a 24-month low. The industry’s May results come after an 8% decrease in April, conveying that a downward sales trendline has formed. The industry’s systemic decline is multifactorial, with pandemic re-openings, lightened core consumer spending, and supply-chain glitches all playing a part.GameStop’s first-quarter earnings report embodies its sensitivity to a softening industry as it missed its earnings target by six cents per share. GameStop’s hardware sales during the quarter amounted to 48.9% of its total revenue mix and its software sales comprised 35.1% of the company’s top line.Although GameStop has formed numerous new business relationships and expanded into the non-fungible token space, much of the company’s new ventures are growth stories, lacking the necessary substance to suggest that they’ll overturn the company’s organic business slowdown.Verdict on GME Stock PriceThere is no need to overthink things here. GME stock is overvalued. For example, the stock is trading at 1.44 times its sales and 6.11 times its fair book value. Additionally, GME stock growth metrics don’t exhibit numbers that justify its overvalued status. For instance, GME’s revenue growth underscores the industry median by36.29%.

Aided by a spike in pandemic-driven demand for tech devices and lavish liquidity in the system, AAPL recorded one of its best three years of returns ever between 2019 and 2021.As much as the metaverse and autonomous vehicles can and likely will support the company’s financial results over the next many years, I think that AAPL stock is overdue for a breather. While shares will likely climb back above $3 trillion and head much higher from there eventually, I am not so confident that this rally will happen in the immediate future.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1024,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9001862282,"gmtCreate":1641219702402,"gmtModify":1676533584159,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4095317771450410","idStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Happy new year!&nbsp;","listText":"Happy new year!&nbsp;","text":"Happy new year!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9001862282","repostId":"1186246259","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1186246259","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":1641214924,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1186246259?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-03 21:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Monday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1186246259","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stock index futures are starting the year with some more champagne.At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stock index futures are starting the year with some more champagne.</p><p>At 8:00 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 162 points, or 0.45%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were up 26.75 points, or 0.56%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 113 points, or 0.69%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/10365f59893373bad1fdc498f5ca24b6\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"359\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>It follows a strong 2021 for each of the indices despite fears of inflation, tighter monetary policy, business disruptions and new COVID-19 variants.

As of Dec. 30, the stock had gained 34% in 2021. This put the market cap at more than $2.9 trillion.While many recent headlines about the company have focused on its market capitalization approaching $3 trillion, investors might be wise to consider an even more bullish target: $4 trillion. Indeed, a close look at the stock suggests that a $4 trillion market cap could be within reach for the tech company in the near future -- possibly even within 2022.Image source: Getty Images.The path to $4 trillionA close look at Apple stock's conservative valuation and the company's broad-based momentum makes a good case for shares being undervalued today, setting the stage for a potential $4 trillion market capitalization in 2022.The first way Apple stock could gain is simply through expansion in its valuation multiple. Some megacap stocks trade at substantially higher multiples relative to their free cash flow (FCF) than Apple does. If Apple can close the gap and command a similar premium, multiple expansion alone could help the stock rise substantially.Consider that Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) trades at 42 times its free cash flow. Apple, meanwhile, trades at only 31 times its FCF. Apple's stock price would have to rise 35% for its FCF valuation multiple to match Microsoft's. This alone would put the company's market capitalization at about $4 trillion.There is actually a good case for Apple stock's valuation to see multiple expansion in the coming years: The tech giant's services business, which is a more reliable revenue source than its products, is growing as a percentage of Apple's total business. With a more predictable and reliable revenue source (that appears to still have lots of upside) increasingly driving Apple's growth, investors may start rewarding the stock with higher valuation multiples. In fiscal 2021, Apple's services revenue was 19% of revenue, up from less than 18% of revenue two years ago and 15% three years ago.But even without this much multiple expansion, strong fundamentals could lift Apple shares meaningfully in 2022 and beyond. Consider that the company is seeing strong double-digit revenue growth recently, with record fiscal fourth-quarter revenue across every geographic and product segment. Specifically, Apple's fiscal fourth-quarter revenue came in at $83.4 billion, up from $64.7 billion in the year-ago quarter. But management estimates that revenue for the period would have been $6 billion higher if it weren't for supply constraints during the period.Suffice to say, Apple's business is firing on all cylinders. With momentum in every geographic and product segment, it wouldn't be surprising to see double-digit growth rates in the company's revenue and free cash flow in fiscal 2022, providing solid substance for more share gains.Expect a bumpy rideWhile it is possible that Apple's market capitalization swells to $4 trillion before the end of 2022, there are no guarantees in investing. Even if everything goes well for Apple as a business, the stock itself could do poorly in the near term. Sometimes, for one reason or another, stocks fall in and out of favor. So even though shares appear undervalued today, the stock could fall before it rises.And there's always a chance that Apple sees multiple compression instead of multiple expansion. While Apple's business fundamentals appear worthy of a Microsoft-like premium, the company's shares have usually traded at a discount to Microsoft's in terms of valuation multiples because Microsoft's business model is considered to be more sustainable and less dependent on blockbuster product hits like new iPhones. Apple notably also makes more than half of its sales from a single product: the iPhone. Its heavy reliance on a single product segment generally makes Wall Street view the stock as risker than Microsoft, which has a business primarily made up of recurring revenue from various software and services sources.But given Apple's long history of pricing power, loyal customers, and an ability to bring to market products in entirely new categories every now and then, the tech company will likely keep succeeding -- and its market cap could march toward $4 trillion.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":1,"FCF":1,"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1271,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9009701294,"gmtCreate":1640784811976,"gmtModify":1676533541270,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4095317771450410","idStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$</a>Time for a holiday, I need to get out of here&nbsp;✈️🌞","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$</a>Time for a holiday, I need to get out of here&nbsp;✈️🌞","text":"$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$Time for a holiday, I need to get out of here ✈️🌞","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9009701294","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1138,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9009709006,"gmtCreate":1640783794715,"gmtModify":1676533541246,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4095317771450410","idStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Motley Clowns 🤡","listText":"Motley Clowns 🤡","text":"Motley Clowns 🤡","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9009709006","repostId":"2195545489","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2195545489","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1640780993,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2195545489?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-12-29 20:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Stocks I'd Sell Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2195545489","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These could be some of the worst-performing and riskiest investments in 2022.","content":"<div>\n<p>For many investors, the New Year is a time of reflection.

They're thinking about what trends they want to buy into for the upcoming year and what stocks might help make them rich.However, reflection is a two-way street. Just as there are great companies that can make investors wealthy, there are stocks that could cost investors a lot of money and should be avoided at all costs. Below are five stocks investors should consider selling right now.Image source: Getty Images.AMC EntertainmentIt's no secret that I believe movie theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) is the most overvalued stock on Wall Street.For those of you who may not have followed the AMC \"made for TV drama\" that's occurred this year, the company's shares are up more than 1,200% following an epic short squeeze earlier this year. Short-sellers (investors betting on a security's price to decline) were caught off-guard when AMC was able to save itself from imminent bankruptcy by selling 164 million shares of stock and issuing high-interest debt. But with this short squeeze now in the rearview mirror, AMC's abysmal operating performance, bloated balance sheet, and declining bargaining power with movie studios are in plain view.For example, before the pandemic took effect, AMC was regularly securing theatrical exclusivity deals of 75 to 90 days. Nowadays, AMC is lucky to secure 45-day theatrical exclusivity. Even taking into account that most revenue is picked up in the first couple of weeks, this 30- to 45-day reduction in exclusivity is going to pinch AMC. It's also bad news considering that inflation-adjusted domestic box office sales have been in decline since 2002.The bigger issue, as I've stated over and over, is AMC can't make good on its liabilities. It has $5.45 billion in outstanding debt at roughly an 8% average interest rate. Keep that rate in mind, because lending rates are pretty much at historic lows. It also has over $1 billion in aggregate debt due in late 2026 and mid-2027 that's valued at more than 30% below face value. With the company hemorrhaging cash and not able to sell any additional stock thanks to its impassioned but misguided retail investors, it looks to be making a slow walk toward a chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization.Suffice it to say, AMC Entertainment is a stock investors can confidently sell right now.Image source: Getty Images.MicroStrategyA second stock investors should strongly consider selling right now is \"enterprise analytics software company\" MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR). I have \"enterprise analytics software company\" in quotations because CEO Michael Saylor has effectively ignored this stagnant part of the company's operations and turned MicroStrategy into a leveraged gamble on Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC).According to the company's investor presentation earlier this month, it's holding 122,478 Bitcoin at an average price of $29,861.  The issue with this strategy is threefold, in my view.First, I'm not convinced Bitcoin is a sound investment. I recently outlined my views on Bitcoin, which centers on its false scarcity and it's less-than-stellar network performance. Bitcoin is constantly being out-innovated when it comes to payments and nonfinancial blockchain applications.Second, MicroStrategy destroyed a reasonably safe balance sheet by piling on more than $2 billion in debt and issuing $900 million in stock, all of which was used to buy Bitcoin. Saylor has leveraged a public company's future on an asset that produces nothing.And third, I believe Saylor is a poor leader. Earlier this year, Saylor told the world in an interview to \"go mortgage your house and buy Bitcoin with it.\" This is incredibly bad advice, and all the more reason to avoid MicroStrategy.Image source: Getty Images.Cassava SciencesAnother stock investors can sell right now is clinical-stage biotech stock Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA).Cassava made waves in the first quarter when it announced positive interim analysis data from its open-label study of simufilam for patients with Alzheimer's disease. The data showed both cognition and behavior score improvements at the six-month mark. Since Alzheimer's has no cure, any positive clinical data tends to be well-received.But there are two glaring issues that should send folks scurrying to the sidelines. First of all, the track record of success for clinical-stage therapeutics targeting Alzheimer's disease is incredibly low. While we've witnessed plenty of early stage success, virtually all late-stage Alzheimer's trials end in failure. This isn't a knock against the research, so much as recognizing that tackling the blood-brain barrier is tricky.The second concern is that Cassava Sciences is facing allegations of manipulating its trial data. The company also announced in November that federal agencies are investigating its practices, without specifically naming the federal agencies in question. Keeping in mind that some of the allegations have come from firms shorting the stock, this is a headache you're better off letting someone else deal with.Image source: Getty Images.GameStopInvestors should also considering selling the original meme stock, GameStop (NYSE:GME).A few weeks before AMC ascended to the heavens on its short squeeze, GameStop's high short interest attracted retail investors. In fact, GameStop's short interest was higher than any publicly traded company, as of mid-January, making it the perfect candidate for an epic squeeze. However, with this short-term event now over, investors are forced to grapple with GameStop's poor operating performance.On the positive side, GameStop was able to raise sufficient capital from selling its stock to rid its balance sheet of debt. This net-cash position, coupled with the long-term growth potential of digital gaming, means there are no bankruptcy concerns, unlike with AMC.But GameStop was notably late in shifting its strategy to include digital gaming. Nowadays, the company is busy shuttering stores in an effort to lower its expenses and back its way into the profit column. The company's large brick-and-mortar presence is expected to work against it for the foreseeable future, and could keep it from profitability for a few years.Further, Wall Street has been unimpressed with management's lack of concrete steps that'll be taken to turn the business around. Even with a hefty cash balance, GameStop is grossly overvalued.A Tesla Model S charging. Image source: Tesla Motors.Tesla MotorsLast, but certainly not least, investors should consider giving electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA) the boot.Tesla has managed to do a lot of great things with its first-mover advantage. The company is on pace to deliver more than 800,000 EVs in 2021, and CEO Elon Musk has watched his company deliver its two largest operating profits since inception this year. The range, capacity, and power associated with Tesla's batteries has been superior as well.Yet, these competitive advantages are unlikely to last given that all of the world's largest auto companies are throwing billions of dollars at EV research. For instance, General Motors and Ford Motor Company are respectively investing $35 billion and $30 billion in next-generation automobiles, with both companies bringing 30 new EVs to market by 2025. Tesla's first-mover advantage will fade sooner than later.What's more, Tesla's income statement has been aided by selling Bitcoin at a profit earlier this year, as well as selling renewable energy credits (RECs) to other automakers. Take away these RECs and Tesla's profits aren't even remotely as impressive.Valued at nearly 130 times Wall Street's forward-year earnings in an industry where single-digit earnings multiples are commonplace, I'd have to think Tesla's stock is due for a major reversion.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":1,"GME":1,"SAVA":1,"MSTR":1,"AMC":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1538,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":482776688837224,"gmtCreate":1758895863461,"gmtModify":1758963434750,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4095317771450410","authorIdStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/DVLT\">$Datavault AI Inc.(DVLT)$</a> Thanks to the Shortsqueeze community on Reddit!","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/DVLT\">$Datavault AI Inc.(DVLT)$</a> Thanks to the Shortsqueeze community on Reddit!","text":"$Datavault AI Inc.(DVLT)$ Thanks to the Shortsqueeze community on Reddit!","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/1b70e326cd1d82d622671633de83e784","width":"981","height":"1637"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":283,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":9,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/482776688837224","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3028,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"10000000000010991","authorId":"10000000000010991","name":"Venus Reade","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38b1d941a51e1a5f1ca29e3f8ce62213","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"10000000000010991","authorIdStr":"10000000000010991"},"content":"Likely to reach $5 in the near term basically on speculation, anything beyond that will have to be on the company's performance.

As of Dec. 30, the stock had gained 34% in 2021. This put the market cap at more than $2.9 trillion.While many recent headlines about the company have focused on its market capitalization approaching $3 trillion, investors might be wise to consider an even more bullish target: $4 trillion. Indeed, a close look at the stock suggests that a $4 trillion market cap could be within reach for the tech company in the near future -- possibly even within 2022.Image source: Getty Images.The path to $4 trillionA close look at Apple stock's conservative valuation and the company's broad-based momentum makes a good case for shares being undervalued today, setting the stage for a potential $4 trillion market capitalization in 2022.The first way Apple stock could gain is simply through expansion in its valuation multiple. Some megacap stocks trade at substantially higher multiples relative to their free cash flow (FCF) than Apple does. If Apple can close the gap and command a similar premium, multiple expansion alone could help the stock rise substantially.Consider that Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) trades at 42 times its free cash flow. Apple, meanwhile, trades at only 31 times its FCF. Apple's stock price would have to rise 35% for its FCF valuation multiple to match Microsoft's. This alone would put the company's market capitalization at about $4 trillion.There is actually a good case for Apple stock's valuation to see multiple expansion in the coming years: The tech giant's services business, which is a more reliable revenue source than its products, is growing as a percentage of Apple's total business. With a more predictable and reliable revenue source (that appears to still have lots of upside) increasingly driving Apple's growth, investors may start rewarding the stock with higher valuation multiples. In fiscal 2021, Apple's services revenue was 19% of revenue, up from less than 18% of revenue two years ago and 15% three years ago.But even without this much multiple expansion, strong fundamentals could lift Apple shares meaningfully in 2022 and beyond. Consider that the company is seeing strong double-digit revenue growth recently, with record fiscal fourth-quarter revenue across every geographic and product segment. Specifically, Apple's fiscal fourth-quarter revenue came in at $83.4 billion, up from $64.7 billion in the year-ago quarter. But management estimates that revenue for the period would have been $6 billion higher if it weren't for supply constraints during the period.Suffice to say, Apple's business is firing on all cylinders. With momentum in every geographic and product segment, it wouldn't be surprising to see double-digit growth rates in the company's revenue and free cash flow in fiscal 2022, providing solid substance for more share gains.Expect a bumpy rideWhile it is possible that Apple's market capitalization swells to $4 trillion before the end of 2022, there are no guarantees in investing. Even if everything goes well for Apple as a business, the stock itself could do poorly in the near term. Sometimes, for one reason or another, stocks fall in and out of favor. So even though shares appear undervalued today, the stock could fall before it rises.And there's always a chance that Apple sees multiple compression instead of multiple expansion. While Apple's business fundamentals appear worthy of a Microsoft-like premium, the company's shares have usually traded at a discount to Microsoft's in terms of valuation multiples because Microsoft's business model is considered to be more sustainable and less dependent on blockbuster product hits like new iPhones. Apple notably also makes more than half of its sales from a single product: the iPhone. Its heavy reliance on a single product segment generally makes Wall Street view the stock as risker than Microsoft, which has a business primarily made up of recurring revenue from various software and services sources.But given Apple's long history of pricing power, loyal customers, and an ability to bring to market products in entirely new categories every now and then, the tech company will likely keep succeeding -- and its market cap could march toward $4 trillion.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MSFT":1,"FCF":1,"AAPL":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1271,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":516976736461496,"gmtCreate":1767238045566,"gmtModify":1767238049450,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4095317771450410","authorIdStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"GoFundMe should not be allowed for these regards&nbsp;","listText":"GoFundMe should not be allowed for these regards&nbsp;","text":"GoFundMe should not be allowed for these regards","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/516976736461496","repostId":"2595109770","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2595109770","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1767224849,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2595109770?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2026-01-01 07:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"\"I Experienced A Catastrophic Financial Loss\": How Options Trader 'Captain Condor' Led His Followers To A $50 Million Wipeout","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2595109770","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"MW 'I experienced a catastrophic financial loss': How options trader 'Captain Condor' led his followers to a $50 million wipeout.

It ultimately proved to be the group's undoing, Kochuba said.By Kochuba's count, the group suffered a loss of more than $30 million on Christmas Eve after selling more than 90,000 Iron Condor spreads. Each spread involved four separate options contracts. Kochuba estimated the group's total losses for the week at more than $50 million.In a post on X published on Christmas Day, Chau said this was the first time his strategy had failed since he started trading it in May 2022.\"In a nutshell, yes we are hurt but I don't f-ing give up. We will regroup and try again,\" Chau said in the post.\"David has acknowledged the recent event publicly and is currently rebuilding his models. He is not providing further comment at this time,\" a representative for Chau said when reached for comment by MarketWatch.Chau said during a recent podcast appearance that his group had grown to include more than 1,000 traders. Newcomers agreed to pay an annual membership fee of $5,500 for access to Chau's trade alerts, which were distributed via a group Slack channel, according to a membership contract and screenshots of the channel reviewed by MarketWatch.One trader who had been a member of the group for about a year told MarketWatch that the strategy had been reliably profitable prior to the wipeout, although he also acknowledged that the group had narrowly avoided a few blowups. One clause in the contract also stipulated that members stay quiet about details of the group's trades.Options market veterans who spoke with MarketWatch said they were surprised the trading style remained profitable for as long as it did.\"It works incredibly well until all of a sudden you lose everything. And that's exactly what happened,\" SpotGamma's Kochuba said in an interview with MarketWatch.Some members of Chau's group were novice investors who discovered it through advertisements on social-media platforms like Instagram and Facebook, two people familiar with the business told MarketWatch.'Their first real terminal event'At times, Chau's positions were so large that the hedging required to manage them could move the market in his favor, said Daniel Roos, a longtime options market professional and founder of VolSignals, a company specializing in options analytics.But the predictability of Chau's strategy, as well as a perfect storm created by a sharp drop in implied volatility during one of the least active periods of the year for stock trading, helped accelerate its undoing. Gauges of implied volatility like the Cboe Volatility Index VIX measure how volatile investors expect the S&P 500 will be over the coming month, using information gleaned from the options market. The index fell to its lowest level in more than a year last week.\"This is their first real terminal event,\" said Roos, who has been monitoring trades put on by Chau's group for more than a year. \"This is the first time, even by his own words, that it has been a quote, unquote, blowout.\"Chau started employing his trading strategy around the time that Cboe Global Markets Inc. $(CBOE)$, one of the biggest operators of U.S. options exchanges, expanded its offerings of weekly contracts tied to the S&P 500, allowing investors to trade 0DTEs linked to the index every day of the week. Previously, weekly S&P 500 options only expired on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Investors can also trade 0DTEs tied to other popular indexes and index-tracking exchange-traded funds.In an appearance on the \"Chris Voss Show\" podcast earlier this year, Chau said that his group's trades were at times even larger than the positions put on by the \"JPMorgan options whale\" - a fund run by J.P. Morgan Asset Management that sells options to generate income for its investors.Like the JPMorgan trades, Chau's trades carried \"fingerprints\" that made them detectable by traders with access to the right data and analytical tools, Kochuba said.Dmitriy Muravyev, an associate professor of finance at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, has studied retail investors' options trading activities and found that, on average, they lose money.Yet the broader U.S. options industry has boomed since the advent of commission-free trading offered by platforms like Robinhood Markets Inc. (HOOD) and its competitors. Many retail investors developed a taste for trading options during the pandemic, when millions of Americans were stuck at home with little to do.Data from the OCC showed that nearly 14 billion contracts tied to stocks, ETFs or equity indexes like the S&P 500 had changed hands in 2025 as of the end of November, surpassing last year's total.For Chau and members of his investing club, the ability to more easily trade these complex options strategies offered the promise of outsize returns. However, the margin for error is, at times, razor thin.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CBOE":1.64,".SPX":1.67}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":271,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":211198455124056,"gmtCreate":1692586925808,"gmtModify":1692586930151,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4095317771450410","authorIdStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great - I'll buy some more.&nbsp;","listText":"Great - I'll buy some more.&nbsp;","text":"Great - I'll buy some more.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/211198455124056","repostId":"2360560715","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2360560715","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1692585387,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2360560715?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-08-21 10:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is It Too Late to Buy Sea Limited Stock?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2360560715","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The Singapore-based retail and tech giant faces some tough challenges.","content":"<div>\n<p>$Sea Limited(SE)'s stock sank 29% to a new 52-week low on Aug. 15 after it posted a disappointing second-quarter report.

The Singapore-based gaming, e-commerce, and fintech company's revenue rose 5% year over year to $3.1 billion, which missed analysts' estimates by $150 million.It posted a net profit of $331 million, compared to its loss of $931 million a year ago, as its earnings of $0.54 per share beat the consensus forecast by $0.08. That marked its third consecutive quarter of profitability on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but its soft sales growth overshadowed that progress. Let's review Sea's biggest challenges and find out if it's too late to bet on its long-term recovery.Why is Sea's sales growth slowing down?Sea owns Shopee, the top e-commerce marketplace in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. It also owns Garena, a video game publisher that generates most of its bookings from Free Fire, a popular battle-royale mobile game launched in 2017.Both businesses flourished during the pandemic as people shopped online and played video games more frequently. Shopee's revenue rose 160% in 2020 and 136% in 2021, while Garena's bookings grew 80% in 2020 and 44% in 2021.However, both businesses faced a tough slowdown as the pandemic-induced tailwinds dissipated. Shopee struggled with slowing demand for online shopping and fierce competition from Alibaba's Lazada and other regional competitors.Garena's Free Fire was banned in India, one of its fastest-growing markets, in early 2022, while the gaming market's post-pandemic slump and competition from similar titles exacerbated its difficulties.That's why Shopee's revenue only rose 42% in 2022 as Garena's bookings fell 39%. Garena's rapid deterioration was a red flag, since Sea had been largely subsidizing Shopee's loss-leading strategies with Garena's profits. In the second quarter of 2023, Shopee's growth decelerated again as Garena's bookings plummeted.MetricQ2 2022Q3 2022Q4 2022Q1 2023Q2 2023Shopee revenue growth (YOY)51%32%32%36%21%Garena bookings growth (YOY)(40%)(45%)(39%)(42%)(38%)Data source: Sea Limited. YOY = year over year.Why are Sea's profits rising?Sea's sales growth is slowing down, but its profits are rising as it implements aggressive cost-cutting. It laid off thousands of employees, froze salaries, and reduced its bonuses.At Shopee, it hiked its seller fees while reining in its loss-leading subsidies, promotions, and marketing campaigns. It shut down several of its overseas marketplaces in Latin America, India, and Europe.On the gaming front, it focused on monetizing Free Fire's existing players instead of growing its user base or developing new games. It also curbed its investments in its smaller fintechs.Yet all of those cost-cutting moves could also narrow Sea's moat against its top competitors. Its commitment to reining in Shopee's spending coincides with Alibaba's increased investments in Lazada, which only fell behind Shopee in Southeast Asia during the pandemic.Garena's commitment to propping up Free Fire instead of launching fresh games could also weaken its competitive position in the cutthroat mobile gaming market.Lastly, cutting its fintech investments -- which had been aimed at expanding its SeaMoney digital wallet and other payment services -- could erode its defenses against Lazada's HelloPay, which is integrated with Ant Group's AliPay and other digital payment platforms.Its past mistakes are becoming easier to seeSea's slowdown and abrupt cost-cutting suggests it didn't capitalize on its growth spurt during the pandemic to set up the foundations for its future. Unlike the Latin American e-commerce leader MercadoLibre, which pumped a lot of its cash into the expansion of its own fulfillment network to solidify its control of the region, Sea spent a lot of its excess cash on Shopee's expansion into other saturated overseas markets. As a result, Shopee remains heavily dependent on third-party logistics services and partners across its core markets in Southeast Asia and Taiwan.But throughout the first half of the year, Sea gradually ramped up its investments in Shopee's first-party logistics network. These improvements include hundreds of new self-service lockers as well as new delivery scheduling and tracking features. Still, the bears will say it should have implemented those sweeping changes several years ago.Is it too late to buy Sea's stock?For the full year, analysts expect Sea's revenue to dip 2% to $12.2 billion as it generates a net profit of $671 million, compared to a net loss of $1.7 billion in 2022. Based on those estimates, Sea looks cheap trading at less than two times this year's sales.Unfortunately, the company's mistakes are tough to ignore. It balanced its entire business on a single hit video game for far too long, neglected the expansion of Shopee's logistics network in Southeast Asia while pursuing a costly (and largely unsuccessful) overseas expansion, and it's focusing on boosting its profits when it should be far more worried about its long-term growth.So Sea has a lot on its plate as it works to regain investor confidence. In light of these struggles across its entire operation, investors should hold off on buying this beaten-down stock as a turnaround play.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"SE":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2487,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9032625345,"gmtCreate":1647358059397,"gmtModify":1676534220455,"author":{"id":"4095317771450410","authorId":"4095317771450410","name":"NellyPembers","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4ee148ae823c1aea7312be4646bf7b1","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4095317771450410","authorIdStr":"4095317771450410"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Bargain, let's go!&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>Bargain, let's go!&nbsp;","text":"$GameStop(GME)$Bargain, let's go!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9032625345","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2820,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
