In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.</p><p><blockquote>微软(MSFT)和亚马逊(AMZN)正在争夺云基础设施服务市场令人垂涎的第一名位置，根据Allied Market的报告，预计到2030年，该市场将从2021年的$325B增长到$1,620B（或$1.6 T）研究。第二季度，亚马逊的AWS收入同比增长37%（显着加速），继续以31%的市场份额引领云基础设施服务市场。然而，微软的Azure正在超过AWS的增长，目前占据22%的市场份额。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60b929cfb3eb06a50b14a942b980bd8d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>在过去一年左右的时间里，随着工作负载迁移和云原生应用程序开发的加速，冠状病毒疫情导致云基础设施服务支出增加。自然，Azure和AWS已经成为这种向云转型的主要受益者。尽管冠状病毒疫情在前几个月已经消退，但企业仍在继续拥抱云，2021年Q2云基础设施服务支出环比增长50亿美元就证明了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ab77f327d4b4f980b703dd05a727a8fd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Both Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as&nbsp;Amazon's lawsuit&nbsp;for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest&nbsp;to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.</p><p><blockquote>微软和亚马逊都是多元化的大型科技巨头。然而，云机遇对他们未来的成功至关重要。如今，微软的智能云业务占总收入的近37%，占微软营业收入的约40%，预计这些数字在未来几年将进一步增长。与亚马逊相比，AWS的收入仅占总销售额的一小部分（2021年第二季度为13%）。然而，AWS贡献了亚马逊的大部分营业收入（约60%）。所以，我对这场战斗变得如此丑陋并不感到惊讶。最近，我们目睹了一些戏剧性的事件，如亚马逊就授予微软的100亿美元Jedi合同提起诉讼，微软就授予亚马逊的100亿美元NSA合同向政府问责办公室提出抗议，以及AWS高管Charlie Bell（曾有望接替Andy Jassy担任AWS首席执行官）搬到微软。亚马逊和微软之间的竞争是可怕的。然而，我可以看到云服务市场有足够的空间容纳多个赢家。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7fd2cfae285856cb75e5ced740ef320\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"310\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Allied Market Research</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：联合市场研究</span></p></blockquote></p><p> With massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now). Azure has been gaining ground on AWS, but it's too soon to tell which of these tech titans will lead the cloud services market over the coming years.</p><p><blockquote>随着云服务的大规模增长，我预计微软和亚马逊在未来十年都将实现两位数的收入增长。一些分析师预计云服务业务将成为一种商品。然而，AWS和微软智能云的盈利指标显示，它显然不是一项商品业务（至少目前如此）。Azure一直在AWS上取得进展，但现在判断这些科技巨头中哪一家将在未来几年引领云服务市场还为时过早。</blockquote></p><p> Over the last 12 months, Microsoft has significantly outperformed Amazon in terms of creating shareholder wealth, as can be observed in the chart below. I attribute Microsoft's outperformance to a multitude of factors, including but not limited to stronger momentum in the cloud, the existence of a massive capital return program, and robust free cash flow generation.</p><p><blockquote>在过去12个月中，微软在创造股东财富方面的表现明显优于亚马逊，如下图所示。我将微软的优异表现归因于多种因素，包括但不限于云计算的强劲势头、大规模资本回报计划的存在以及强劲的自由现金流生成。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a47beb283bcc911ba9ad25c4c2c01f91\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In today's article, I will share a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon. Furthermore, we will estimate the fair value and expected returns for both of these blue-chip companies based on the financial statement analysis conducted in this note.</p><p><blockquote>在今天的文章中，我将分享一个比较财务分析，以确定微软和亚马逊之间更好的购买方式。此外，我们将根据本附注中进行的财务报表分析估计这两家蓝筹公司的公允价值和预期回报。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Comparative Financial Analysis: Microsoft vs. Amazon</b></p><p><blockquote><b>比较财务分析：微软与亚马逊</b></blockquote></p><p> I think it's too early to call the cloud services market, and the winners will only be evident in due time. However, it's very likely that Amazon and Microsoft will be dominating this market in 2031. Now, Amazon and Microsoft may be competitors in the cloud, but they happen to be two very different companies with varied core competencies: Amazon - e-commerce, Microsoft - business, and consumer software. Let's carry out a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.</p><p><blockquote>我认为现在看涨期权云服务市场还为时过早，赢家只有在适当的时候才会显现出来。然而，亚马逊和微软很可能会在2031年主导这个市场。现在，亚马逊和微软可能是云领域的竞争对手，但它们恰好是两家截然不同的公司，拥有不同的核心竞争力：亚马逊——电子商务、微软——商业和消费软件。让我们进行一个比较财务分析，以确定微软和亚马逊之间更好的购买方式。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d675b34f8dc1b88db5722fa7be591b9f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In essence, Microsoft is a high-margin software and services business, while Amazon is a low-margin retail business with some higher-margin business lines such as AWS and Advertising. Since both Amazon and Microsoft are over-covered stocks, I don't think discussing their revenue mix would be of much value. However, let's look at the free cash flow generation of these blue-chip giants to understand their current business momentum.</p><p><blockquote>本质上，微软是一个高利润的软件和服务业务，而亚马逊是一个低利润的零售业务，拥有一些更高利润的业务线，如AWS和广告。由于亚马逊和微软都是被过度覆盖的股票，我认为讨论它们的收入组合没有多大价值。然而，让我们看看这些蓝筹巨头的自由现金流生成情况，以了解他们目前的业务势头。</blockquote></p><p> After receiving a massive pandemic boost, Amazon's free cash flows have turned negative in the last two quarters as the company invests massive amounts of capital (capex spending) in driving future revenue growth. In Q2, Amazon missed revenue estimates by ~$2B, which is further evidence of Amazon losing business momentum. On the other hand, Microsoft's business momentum remained strong in Q2 as the company beat revenue expectations by ~$2B while generating record amounts of free cash flow over the last 12 months. Therefore, it's fair to say that Microsoft is outperforming Amazon for the time being.</p><p><blockquote>在受到大流行的巨大提振后，亚马逊的自由现金流在过去两个季度转为负值，因为该公司投入了大量资本（capex支出）来推动未来的收入增长。第二季度，亚马逊的收入低于预期约20亿美元，这进一步证明亚马逊正在失去业务动力。另一方面，微软第二季度的业务势头依然强劲，该公司的收入超出预期约20亿美元，同时在过去12个月内产生了创纪录的自由现金流。因此，可以公平地说，微软的表现暂时优于亚马逊。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0ed96043009b5528ed09d4e736d1833d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> At the end of Q2, Microsoft had nearly $130B of cash and short-term investments on its balance sheet vs. financial debt of $58B (down from ~$90B debt in Dec'17). Over the last five years, Amazon's cash reserves have been building up, which now stand at ~$90B. However, the e-commerce giant has been increasing its debt load too, which has grown to $50B in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>截至第二季度末，微软的资产负债表上有近130B美元的现金和短期投资，而金融债务为58B美元（低于17年12月的约90B美元债务）。在过去的五年里，亚马逊的现金储备一直在增加，目前约为90B美元。然而，这家电子商务巨头的债务负担也在增加，2021年第二季度已增至500亿美元。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f8f27effc87360acc99c52dadd22af3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In terms of balance sheet strength, Microsoft is clearly in a better position compared to Amazon. Moreover, Microsoft's free cash flow generation is superior to Amazon right now. As you can see below, Microsoft is using its financial strength to execute a massive capital return program that consists of stock buybacks and dividends. Although Amazon lacks a capital return program today, it's only a matter of time before Amazon boasts one of the largest capital return programs among big tech companies. Therefore, Microsoft's advantage in this department may be short lived.</p><p><blockquote>就资产负债表实力而言，与亚马逊相比，微软显然处于更有利的地位。此外，微软目前的自由现金流生成量优于亚马逊。如下图所示，微软正在利用其财务实力执行一项大规模资本回报计划，其中包括股票回购和股息。尽管亚马逊目前缺乏资本回报计划，但亚马逊拥有大型科技公司中最大的资本回报计划之一只是时间问题。因此，微软在这一部门的优势可能是短暂的。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef388b2cab13ed222ddf2ba53ad6067f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> While Microsoft returns the majority of its operational cash flows back to shareholders, Amazon is investing billions of dollars to drive future revenue (and, by extension, free cash flow) growth. In my opinion, Amazon will continue to outpace Microsoft's revenue growth over the next decade. As Amazon's faster-growing, higher-margin business lines, AWS and Advertising, contribute a larger share of Amazon's revenues over the coming years, its margins are expected to head higher. Hence, Amazon possesses the greater potential for revenue growth and margin expansion compared to Microsoft. To learn more about AWS and Amazon's Ads business, you may read the following notes:</p><p><blockquote>虽然微软将大部分运营现金流返还给股东，但亚马逊正在投资数十亿美元来推动未来收入（以及自由现金流）的增长。在我看来，未来十年，亚马逊的收入增长将继续超过微软。随着亚马逊增长更快、利润率更高的业务线AWS和广告在未来几年为亚马逊的收入贡献了更大的份额，预计其利润率将会上升。因此，与微软相比，亚马逊拥有更大的收入增长和利润率扩张潜力。要了解有关AWS和亚马逊广告业务的更多信息，您可以阅读以下说明：</blockquote></p><p> <ol>  <li>Amazon Web Services -&nbsp;Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring</li>  <li>Digital Ads -&nbsp;Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS</li> </ol> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18e9ff96d611913db9e45fbff0cc34ab\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><ol><li>亚马逊网络服务-亚马逊：以下是您应该监控的内容</li><li>数字广告-亚马逊：“其他”细分市场的价值可能超过AWS</li></ol><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Although Amazon appears to be more expensive than Microsoft based on backward-looking trading multiples such as Price-to-Earnings and Price-to-FCF ratios, it's relatively cheaper than Microsoft when we factor in future growth as indicated by the PEG ratios.</p><p><blockquote>尽管根据市盈率和市盈率与自由现金流比率等回顾性交易倍数，亚马逊似乎比微软贵，但当我们考虑到PEG比率所表明的未来增长时，亚马逊相对比微软便宜。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68cf436c611eb187de68bf8802e73021\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p></p><p> In summary, Microsoft is currently performing better than Amazon.

Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.</p><p><blockquote><table><tbody><tr><td><b>当前价格</b></td><td><b>公允价值</b></td><td><b>低估(-)或高估(+)</b></td><td><b>2031年股价目标</b></td><td><b>总预期复合年增长率回报</b></td><td><b>评级</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>微软</b></td><td>$301</td><td>$295</td><td>+2.15%</td><td>$1101</td><td>14.71%</td><td><i>适度购买</i></td></tr><tr><td><b>亚马逊</b></td><td>$3478</td><td>$6024</td><td>-42.27%</td><td>$22298</td><td>20.42%</td><td><i>强力买入</i></td></tr></tbody></table>正如您所看到的，微软的估值略有高估，以301美元买入的投资者预计未来十年的复合年增长率约为14.71%，略低于我们15%的投资门槛率。由于微软的业务基本面强劲，我将其评为以这个价格适度买入。另一方面，亚马逊的业务面临近期波动，业务势头看起来摇摇欲坠。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，这是长期投资者产生显着阿尔法的机会。由于亚马逊的预期复合年增长率远大于我的最低回报率，我将亚马逊评为强力买入。如果我要根据业务势头（云和其他）在微软和亚马逊之间做出选择，我会选择微软。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，而微软的估值相当合理。考虑到可用的风险/回报，我认为亚马逊是更好的选择。</blockquote></p><p> Key Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301.

In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.</p><p><blockquote>微软(MSFT)和亚马逊(AMZN)正在争夺云基础设施服务市场令人垂涎的第一名位置，根据Allied Market的报告，预计到2030年，该市场将从2021年的$325B增长到$1,620B（或$1.6 T）研究。第二季度，亚马逊的AWS收入同比增长37%（显着加速），继续以31%的市场份额引领云基础设施服务市场。然而，微软的Azure正在超过AWS的增长，目前占据22%的市场份额。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60b929cfb3eb06a50b14a942b980bd8d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>在过去一年左右的时间里，随着工作负载迁移和云原生应用程序开发的加速，冠状病毒疫情导致云基础设施服务支出增加。自然，Azure和AWS已经成为这种向云转型的主要受益者。尽管冠状病毒疫情在前几个月已经消退，但企业仍在继续拥抱云，2021年Q2云基础设施服务支出环比增长50亿美元就证明了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ab77f327d4b4f980b703dd05a727a8fd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Both Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as&nbsp;Amazon's lawsuit&nbsp;for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest&nbsp;to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.</p><p><blockquote>微软和亚马逊都是多元化的大型科技巨头。然而，云机遇对他们未来的成功至关重要。如今，微软的智能云业务占总收入的近37%，占微软营业收入的约40%，预计这些数字在未来几年将进一步增长。与亚马逊相比，AWS的收入仅占总销售额的一小部分（2021年第二季度为13%）。然而，AWS贡献了亚马逊的大部分营业收入（约60%）。所以，我对这场战斗变得如此丑陋并不感到惊讶。最近，我们目睹了一些戏剧性的事件，如亚马逊就授予微软的100亿美元Jedi合同提起诉讼，微软就授予亚马逊的100亿美元NSA合同向政府问责办公室提出抗议，以及AWS高管Charlie Bell（曾有望接替Andy Jassy担任AWS首席执行官）搬到微软。亚马逊和微软之间的竞争是可怕的。然而，我可以看到云服务市场有足够的空间容纳多个赢家。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7fd2cfae285856cb75e5ced740ef320\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"310\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Allied Market Research</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：联合市场研究</span></p></blockquote></p><p> With massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now).

Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.</p><p><blockquote><table><tbody><tr><td><b>当前价格</b></td><td><b>公允价值</b></td><td><b>低估(-)或高估(+)</b></td><td><b>2031年股价目标</b></td><td><b>总预期复合年增长率回报</b></td><td><b>评级</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>微软</b></td><td>$301</td><td>$295</td><td>+2.15%</td><td>$1101</td><td>14.71%</td><td><i>适度购买</i></td></tr><tr><td><b>亚马逊</b></td><td>$3478</td><td>$6024</td><td>-42.27%</td><td>$22298</td><td>20.42%</td><td><i>强力买入</i></td></tr></tbody></table>正如您所看到的，微软的估值略有高估，以301美元买入的投资者预计未来十年的复合年增长率约为14.71%，略低于我们15%的投资门槛率。由于微软的业务基本面强劲，我将其评为以这个价格适度买入。另一方面，亚马逊的业务面临近期波动，业务势头看起来摇摇欲坠。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，这是长期投资者产生显着阿尔法的机会。由于亚马逊的预期复合年增长率远大于我的最低回报率，我将亚马逊评为强力买入。如果我要根据业务势头（云和其他）在微软和亚马逊之间做出选择，我会选择微软。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，而微软的估值相当合理。考虑到可用的风险/回报，我认为亚马逊是更好的选择。</blockquote></p><p> Key Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301.

However, Amazon's AWS remains in the No.1 position.\nAlthough the cloud wars are heating up, both Azure and AWS are performing exceptionally, growing at 51% y/y and 37% y/y, respectively.\nThe global cloud services market is poised to grow at a CAGR of ~15.8% until 2030 to become a $1.6T market. Therefore, cloud providers still have a long growth runway.\nIn this article, I share a comparative financial analysis for Microsoft and Amazon to determine the better buy.\n\nChip Somodevilla/Getty Images News\nIntroduction\nMicrosoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) are competing for the coveted No.1 spot in the cloud infrastructure services market, which is projected to grow from $325B in 2021 to $1,620B (or $1.6T) by 2030, according to areportby Allied Market Research. In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.\nSource: canalys.com\nIn the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.\nSource: canalys.com\nBoth Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as Amazon's lawsuit for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.\nSource: Allied Market Research\nWith massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now). Azure has been gaining ground on AWS, but it's too soon to tell which of these tech titans will lead the cloud services market over the coming years.\nOver the last 12 months, Microsoft has significantly outperformed Amazon in terms of creating shareholder wealth, as can be observed in the chart below. I attribute Microsoft's outperformance to a multitude of factors, including but not limited to stronger momentum in the cloud, the existence of a massive capital return program, and robust free cash flow generation.\nSource: YCharts\nIn today's article, I will share a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon. Furthermore, we will estimate the fair value and expected returns for both of these blue-chip companies based on the financial statement analysis conducted in this note.\nComparative Financial Analysis: Microsoft vs. Amazon\nI think it's too early to call the cloud services market, and the winners will only be evident in due time. However, it's very likely that Amazon and Microsoft will be dominating this market in 2031. Now, Amazon and Microsoft may be competitors in the cloud, but they happen to be two very different companies with varied core competencies: Amazon - e-commerce, Microsoft - business, and consumer software. Let's carry out a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.\nSource: YCharts\nIn essence, Microsoft is a high-margin software and services business, while Amazon is a low-margin retail business with some higher-margin business lines such as AWS and Advertising. Since both Amazon and Microsoft are over-covered stocks, I don't think discussing their revenue mix would be of much value.

Over the last five years, Amazon's cash reserves have been building up, which now stand at ~$90B. However, the e-commerce giant has been increasing its debt load too, which has grown to $50B in Q2 2021.\nSource: YCharts\nIn terms of balance sheet strength, Microsoft is clearly in a better position compared to Amazon. Moreover, Microsoft's free cash flow generation is superior to Amazon right now. As you can see below, Microsoft is using its financial strength to execute a massive capital return program that consists of stock buybacks and dividends. Although Amazon lacks a capital return program today, it's only a matter of time before Amazon boasts one of the largest capital return programs among big tech companies.

Here's what it entails:\n\nIn step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.\nIn step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).\nIn step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, we arrive at a CAGR using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.\nIn step 4, we account for dividends.\n\nAssumptions:\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft\nAmazon\n\n\nForward 12-month revenue [A]\n$195 billion\n$515 billion\n\n\nPotential Free Cash Flow Margin [B]\n35%\n20%\n\n\nAverage diluted shares outstanding [C]\n7.5 billion\n525 million\n\n\nFree cash flow per share [ D = (A * B) / C ]\n$9.1\n$196.19\n\n\nFree cash flow per share growth rate\n10%\n12.5%\n\n\nTerminal growth rate\n3%\n3%\n\n\nYears of elevated growth\n10\n10\n\n\nTotal years to stimulate\n100\n100\n\n\nDiscount Rate (Our \"Next Best Alternative\")\n9.8%\n9.8%\n\n\n\nResults:\n1) Microsoft:\n\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\n2) Amazon:\n\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\nSummary of Results:\n\n\n\nCurrent Price\nFair Value\nUndervalued (-) or Overvalued (+)\n2031 Share Price Target\nTotal Expected CAGR Return\nRating\n\n\nMicrosoft\n$301\n$295\n+2.15%\n$1101\n14.71%\nModest Buy\n\n\nAmazon\n$3478\n$6024\n-42.27%\n$22298\n20.42%\nStrong Buy\n\n\n\nAs you can see, Microsoft is slightly overvalued, and investors buying in at $301 can expect to generate CAGR returns of ~14.71% over the next decade, which is slightly below our investment hurdle rate of 15%. Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.\nKey Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301. Amazon is a better buy than Microsoft at this point in time.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9,"MSFT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":819275266,"gmtCreate":1630074843555,"gmtModify":1704955616467,"author":{"id":"3570923041276809","authorId":"3570923041276809","name":"potatochip","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/279b09d8c5dbf0fd92a959709ef9b5ff","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570923041276809","idStr":"3570923041276809"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go Cathie!

High-end Samsung Galaxy phones have been able to shoot portrait mode during video—called Video Live Focus—since 2019, with the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G.\nOne More Mini\nApple saw lackluster sales of the iPhone 12 Mini, which has a 5.4-inch screen.Counterpoint Intelligence Research Partners estimates that the Mini made up just 5% of total iPhone 12 sales in the quarter ending June 2021.Trendforce, a market research firm, reported that Apple halted iPhone 12 mini production.\nHowever, Mr. Munster believes that we’ll see another Mini this year. “It’s a niche, but people in that niche tend to like them,” he said. This was welcome news to me. I happen to be in that niche—though I do think the small phone’s battery life could be much better.\nAdam Wears, an analyst at Juniper Research, agrees. He expects Apple will phase out the Mini in subsequent years, focusing instead on its standard and premium-tier Pro and Pro Max models, while the iPhone SE, with a 4.7-inch screen, becomes the lower-priced model.\nApple CEO Tim Cook showed off the iPhone 12 Pro in October 2020.\nWider 5G Availability\nMr. Wears also anticipates the next iPhone will expand the use of high-frequency millimeter-wave technology in handsets in more countries across Asia and Europe.\nThe iPhone 12 globally supports the more conventional sub-6-gigahertz band, but the faster millimeter-wave antenna, which can’t travel long distances and is more susceptible to obstacles such as trees, is only available in iPhone models in the U.S.\nBrian White, an analyst with Monness Crespi Hardt, agrees that the next iPhones will likely “further tap into this nascent global 5G ramp.”\nShipping Delays\nApple said it is affected by the disruption to the global supply of microprocessors. “We’re going to take it sort of one quarter at a time and, as you would guess, we’ll do everything we can to mitigate whatever set of circumstances we’re dealt,” Chief Executive Tim Cook told analysts during a public conference call last month.\nMr. Munster said that while he expects the company to announce the phone in September with availability in October, he thinks most customers won’t receive devices until December.\nSamsung recently announced two foldable devices: the Galaxy Z Flip3, left, and Galaxy Z Fold3.\nNo Foldable—Yet\n“The chapter after 5G is foldable phones,” said Mr. Munster, who expects Apple to release that device in 2023. The competition in the space is heating up: Samsung recently announced two foldable devices, the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3. The former opens like a book and the latter works like an old-school flip phone, like the old Motorola Razr. The prediction that iPhones will eventually flip is reinforced by the fact that Samsung is one of Apple’s top display manufacturers.\nMy colleague Joanna Stern found a pattern in Samsung and Apple releases. The iPhone maker typically incorporates features two to three years after Samsung. And if that timeline is any indication, the iPhone is soon due for an in-screen fingerprint reader and a screen with a faster 120-hertz refresh rate for smoother animations.\nJoanna reported that Apple has been working on in-screen fingerprint technology and has considered including Touch ID and Face ID on the same device, according to two former Apple employees. It probably won’t appear this year, however.\nWhat About Other Phones?\nIf you’re in the market for an upgrade, there are, of course, other options to consider.\nGoogle already announced that its next Pixel 6 will run its own proprietary Google-designed chip and feature a new camera system. We’ll hear more details sometime this fall. Meanwhile, Samsung lowered the price of its recent foldables to $1,800 for the Fold ($200 less than its predecessor) and $1,000 for the smaller Flip (nearly $400 cheaper than last year’s model). And while the Galaxy S21is still probably the best overall Android purchase, Samsung will likely launch its next non-folding flagship Galaxy phones in early 2022.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3619,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":839381625,"gmtCreate":1629122331967,"gmtModify":1631890264849,"author":{"id":"3570923041276809","authorId":"3570923041276809","name":"potatochip","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/279b09d8c5dbf0fd92a959709ef9b5ff","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3570923041276809","idStr":"3570923041276809"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/839381625","repostId":"1163741094","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163741094","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1629100856,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1163741094?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-16 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Watch For These New Product Launches From Apple This Fall: Mark Gurman<blockquote>关注苹果今年秋季推出的这些新产品：Mark Gurman</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163741094","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Apple is preparing to launch several new products this fall, including new iPhones, Apple Watches, u","content":"<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></b> is preparing to launch several new products this fall, including new&nbsp;<b>iPhones</b>,&nbsp;<b>Apple Watches</b>, updated&nbsp;<b>AirPods</b>, the revamped&nbsp;<b>iPad mini</b>&nbsp;and redesigned&nbsp;<b>MacBook Pros</b>, according to&nbsp;<b>Mark Gurman</b>, a leading Apple watcher.</p><p><blockquote><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">苹果</a></b>正准备在今年秋季推出几款新产品，包括新<b>iPhone</b>, <b>苹果手表</b>，已更新<b>AirPods</b>，改造后的<b>iPad mini</b>并重新设计<b>MacBook Pro</b>，根据<b>马克·古尔曼</b>一位著名的苹果观察家。</blockquote></p><p> <b>What Happened:</b>&nbsp;Apple will hold multiple events this year, with the first event likely in September, Gurmansaidin the latest edition of his “Power On” newsletter for Bloomberg.</p><p><blockquote><b>发生了什么：</b>苹果今年将举办多场活动，第一场活动可能在9月举行，古尔曼赛在他为彭博社撰写的最新一期“Power On”时事通讯中表示。</blockquote></p><p> Alongside the new iPhone 13 expected to be launched in September, Apple will likely launch third-generation AirPods, an updated iPad mini with thinner borders and complete redesign, and the Apple Watch Series 7 with updated screen technology and a faster processor.</p><p><blockquote>除了预计将于9月推出的新款iPhone 13，苹果还可能推出第三代AirPods、边框更薄、完全重新设计的更新iPad mini，以及采用更新屏幕技术和更快处理器的苹果Watch Series 7。</blockquote></p><p> In addition, Gurman noted that Apple’s revamped 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros with the company's in-house M1X chip “should still go on sale by the time the current MacBook Pro hits its two-year anniversary.”</p><p><blockquote>此外，Gurman指出，苹果改进后的14英寸和16英寸MacBook Pro采用该公司内部M1X芯片，“在当前的MacBook Pro两周年纪念日之前应该仍会上市销售”。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Why It Matters:</b>&nbsp;Apple’s highly anticipated MacBook Pros are expected to feature mini-LED displays, updated designs, and the M1X Apple silicon chip.

ETF (SPY) by a margin greater than 15%. In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers&nbsp;Cathie Wood&nbsp;of&nbsp;Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in&nbsp;Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.</p><p><blockquote>2021年，苹果(AAPL)已成为负回报投资，表现落后SPDR标普500信托ETF（SPDR标普500指数ETF）超过15%。2021年5月，最热门的基金经理之一Ark Invest的Cathie Wood从ARK Fintech Innovation ETF(ARKF)出售了近30万股AAPL股票。据报道，ARK一度减持了AAPL的股份，以增持Coinbase(COIN)和DraftKings(DKNG)的股份。one’s ARK等主动管理型基金每天都会监督股票的买卖，并且可能会使用AAPL作为现金的替代品。苹果公司的评论褒贬不一，一些人认为它最好的日子还在前面，而另一些人则认为辉煌的日子不会重现。我认为市场正在给投资者一个机会，因为AAPL应该会在2021年下半年突破横盘格局。</blockquote></p><p> The market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation &amp; gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.</p><p><blockquote>市场对苹果公司在第一季度和第二季度的井喷表现并没有留下深刻印象。苹果公司的股价非但没有受到基本面的支持，反而一直停滞不前。作为苹果公司的多头，令人费解的是，当苹果公司为有史以来最好的一年做准备时，如此多的注意力都集中在模因股票上，而不是像苹果公司这样的公司。在阅读了最近关于MEME股票的文章的评论后，我写道，然后回顾一些AAPL文章的评论部分，我只是不明白心态是如何转向彻底的投机和赌博而不是投资的。在本财年的前两个季度，2021年AAPL的每股收益为3.08美元，而整个2020财年的每股收益为3.31美元。苹果公司正在为许多指标上有史以来最好的一年奠定基础，但市场并没有留下深刻印象。我相信2021年下半年将会有令人印象深刻的烟花，随着第三季度和第四季度数据的公布，耐心的股东将会得到回报。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e86cb02096dfa9c6da05e350f274aa64\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"556\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：寻求阿尔法）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Apple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is</b></p><p><blockquote><b>苹果相信这是市场上最好的投资，并把钱用在了他们的嘴上</b></blockquote></p><p> So what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&amp;D]. In&nbsp;2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&amp;D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.</p><p><blockquote>那么AAPL如何处理其产生的所有现金呢？首先，他们每年花费数百亿美元来发展业务，同时投资研发[R&amp;D]。2020年，AAPL在创收成本上花费了1695.6亿美元。他们的劳动成果可以从他们的产品供应以及他们最新的业务领域（包括服务和可穿戴设备、家居和配件）的增长速度中看出。AAPL在2020年拨款187.5亿美元用于研发，为他们心爱的产品带来进步。AAPL拥有类似邪教心态的客户的原因之一是因为AAPL不会停止创新。他们总是站在最前沿，推动技术如何改善个人日常生活的界限。</blockquote></p><p> So what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's&nbsp;board&nbsp;authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost&nbsp;$23 billion&nbsp;in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.</p><p><blockquote>那么AAPL的业务费用兑现后剩下的现金呢？苹果公司押注于自己，并将其股票视为一种投资。自2012财年以来，AAPL已回购了价值4217亿美元的自有股票。2021年，AAPL回购了430亿美元的股票，这表明高级领导层认为持有AAPL股票具有巨大价值。我记得当内部人士购买他们公司的股票时，每个人都感到兴奋的日子。对于苹果公司来说，回购股票只是一个普通的周一。苹果公司在过去十年中回购的股票数量超过了大多数公司的市值增长水平。AAPL董事会授权在其现有股票回购计划的基础上追加900亿美元，AAPL在2021年第二季度向股东返还了近230亿美元的资本，没有比这更乐观的了。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3dbaf61374104ed17e51201af591ab7d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：苹果）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Meme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market</b></p><p><blockquote><b>模因股票与苹果以及这个市场的疯狂</b></blockquote></p><p></p><p> GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME &amp; AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.</p><p><blockquote>2021年上半年，游戏驿站(GME)和AMC院线控股(AMC)的股价大幅上涨。不管GME和AMC为何上涨，事实是GME的回报率超过1,100%，AMC的回报率超过2,000%。任何骑过GME或AMC的人，我祝贺并向你们脱帽致敬。由于AAPL今年表现不佳，市场正受到宏伟妄想的推动，但GME和AMC却绝对呈爆炸式上涨。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c85258331453c02381346f8b6c676cec\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"499\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：寻求阿尔法）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> What's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through&nbsp;AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.</p><p><blockquote>过去几个月AMC发生了什么变化？我可以告诉你，一件事都没有。AMC仍然是一家亏损且几乎不赚钱的公司。我知道投资AMC这样的公司可以因波动性而产生巨额回报，但我并不是在批评它。如果你能在上面赚钱，无论如何，不要让任何人妨碍你，但要小心。当你通读AMC的损益表时，你会发现他们的净利润从未超过4亿美元。在过去十年中，AMC最赚钱的一年是2013年，净利润为3.644亿美元。2019年，新冠疫情的影响为零，AMC创造了54.7亿美元的收入，甚至无法盈利，因为他们亏损了1.491亿美元。AMC上一季度报告的资产负债表上的股本为-23亿美元。现实情况是，AMC可以增发股票并出售以筹集资金。这将改善资产负债表并增加手头现金，从而使AMC受益。人们似乎不明白，当一家公司发行更多股票时，最初的一批股票会因为额外的供应而被稀释并变得毫无价值。AMC可以发行股票并增强其资产负债表，但这不会解决其盈利问题。AAPL每个季度向股东支付的股息比AMC过去十年产生的利润还要多，但AMC是产生更大回报的股票。</blockquote></p><p> When investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my&nbsp;AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&amp;P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN)&nbsp;has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and&nbsp;Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.</p><p><blockquote>当投资者购买AMC股票时，他们购买的是一家每股收益为负的公司。AMC的市盈率无法在过去12个月或远期基础上衡量，但投资者愿意为不存在的收益买单。在我的AMC文章的评论中，人们说基本面并不重要。我知道AMC一直是一项技术性交易，但这并不能改变投资者为一家盈利为负的公司买单的现实。目前，标准普尔指数的平均市盈率为45.02。如果我使用AAPL在2021财年前6个月产生的每股收益3.08美元，他们的市盈率将为40.55。对于TTM，AAPL的每股收益为4.49美元，这使得其市盈率降至28.09。目前，投资者为AAPL每产生1美元的收益支付28.09美元，这对于科技行业来说很低。亚马逊(AMZN)的市盈率为62.44，微软(MSFT)为34.93，谷歌(GOOGL)为32.05。看涨期权我很守旧，但我喜欢投资盈利的公司。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79e06d9bc68454731c984429111ff056\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"661\"><span>(Source:multpl.com)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：multpl.com）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Laying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable</b></p><p><blockquote><b>阐述苹果的牛市理由以及为什么向上突破是不可避免的</b></blockquote></p><p> AAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.</p><p><blockquote>苹果公司拥有一批狂热的追随者，他们被其产品和服务所吸引。2021年前6个月，AAPLhas的收入为2010.2亿美元，毛利润为824.1亿美元，净利润为523.9亿美元。2021年，AAPL已创造了2020年总收入的73.23%（2010.2亿美元），然后是2020年总收入（824.1亿美元）的78.51%和2020年净利润总额（523.9亿美元）的91.25%。AAPL有望打破之前的记录，除非发生深不可测的事情，否则2021年将是AAPL有史以来最好的一年。</blockquote></p><p> So the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when&nbsp;AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.</p><p><blockquote>因此，真正的问题是是什么导致了AAPL财务状况的飙升，以及它们是否可持续？部分原因是AAPL的硬件销量从iPhone 12到iPad都有所增长。可以说，由于在家工作或远程学习，许多人在疫情期间需要升级他们的技术，但这种逻辑不能用于2021年。4月底，当AAPL报告Q2时，他们的iPhone销售额超出预期71.4亿美元，Mac销售额超出预期22亿美元，iPad销售额超出预期20.1亿美元。这些数字是一年后的事了，虽然AAPL首款5G产品iPhone 12预计会带来推动力，但我相信疫情将社会推向了一个更加重视技术的地方。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> I believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In&nbsp;2018 Services&nbsp;generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.</p><p><blockquote>我相信AAPL将继续看到强劲的硬件销售，但这只是拼图的一部分。服务和可穿戴设备家居和配件正在成为AAPL财务指标的重要组成部分。2018年，服务业创造了397.5亿美元的收入。2019年，服务增加了65.4亿美元（16.46%），全年收入为462.9亿美元。2020年，服务业增长了74.8亿美元（16.15%），总收入达到537.7亿美元。2020年前6个月，服务已经创造了326.6亿美元的收入，占2020年总收入的60.75%。服务持续增长，为AAPL创造了真正的经常性收入业务部门。服务的美妙之处在于AAPL销售的每一件硬件；每个月都有机会通过服务产生额外的收入。</blockquote></p><p> Services are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.</p><p><blockquote>服务正在成为AAPL的本垒打，因为它使其收入组合多元化，不再仅仅依靠实体产品构建。截至2020财年结束时，服务业在短短4年内年收入增加了294.2亿美元（120.83%）。2021年前6个月，服务业创造了326.6亿美元，是2020年收入的60%。AAPL有望在2021财年实现600亿美元的服务收入。展望未来，在不久的将来，服务业可能会创造1000亿美元的收入。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5f044f79f7525038fb94ed27b6a92209\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：Steven Fiorillo）（数据来源：苹果）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Wearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac. With the inception of the Apple Watch, this category has grown from generating $11.13 billion in 2016 to $30.62 billion in 2020. Over 4 fiscal years, Wearables Home and Accessories has increased its revenue by $24.48 billion (175.06%), and its growth keeps expanding. In the first 6 months of 2021, Wearables Home and Accessories have generated $20.81 billion in revenue, which is 67.95% of 2020's total revenue. AAPL is certainly on track to generate $35 billion-plus in revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories in the fiscal year 2021. Over the next several years, AAPL is on track to generate $50 billion in annual revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories.</p><p><blockquote>可穿戴设备家居和配件继续追随Service的脚步，因为它已成为比iPad和Mac更大的收入领域。随着苹果观察的成立，这一类别的收入从2016年的111.3亿美元增长到2020年的306.2亿美元。在4个财年中，可穿戴家居和配件的收入增加了244.8亿美元（175.06%），并且增长不断扩大。2021年前6个月，可穿戴家居和配件已经创造了208.1亿美元的收入，是2020年总收入的67.95%。AAPL肯定有望在2021财年从可穿戴设备家居和配件中创造超过350亿美元的收入。未来几年，AAPL有望从可穿戴设备家居和配件中创造500亿美元的年收入。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7071ec652302c6cab585fef4c408d65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：Steven Fiorillo）（数据来源：苹果）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> By the end of the Fiscal Year 2025, there is a good chance that Services can generate more than $78 billion, and Wearables Home and Accessories could generate over $44 billion in annual revenue if they both grow at a 10% rate. These two categories are on pace to exceed $100 billion in revenue combined, which could grow into $150 billion annually in the late 2020s. I am shocked investors haven't been piling into AAPL, and it's even more ludicrous that an emphasis on AAPL's numbers isn't being discussed in greater detail. What's AAPL worth down the road when Services reaches $100 billion in revenue and Wearables Home and Accessories reaches $50 billion? Over the past decade, AAPL has continued to innovate and change how technology is used, and to think their best days are behind them is a notion I refuse to believe.</p><p><blockquote>到2025财年结束时，服务很有可能会产生超过780亿美元的收入，如果两者都以10%的速度增长，可穿戴家居和配件的年收入可能会超过440亿美元。这两个类别的总收入有望超过1000亿美元，到2020年代末，这一数字可能会增长到每年1500亿美元。我对投资者没有涌入苹果公司感到震惊，更可笑的是，没有更详细地讨论对苹果公司数据的强调。当服务业收入达到1000亿美元、可穿戴家居和配件收入达到500亿美元时，AAPL未来的价值是多少？在过去的十年里，AAPL不断创新并改变技术的使用方式，我拒绝相信他们最好的日子已经过去。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62cd231b75d9f875329f6713debe846b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"191\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：苹果）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Conclusion</b></p><p><blockquote><b>结论</b></blockquote></p><p> The meme stocks are causing a lot of excitement for some investors while they leave a whole other group shaking their heads. Other than a gamble, I can't understand why people want to invest in AMC when you could buy shares of AAPL on sale. AAPL should have exploded to the upside, but its 2 recent blowout quarters didn't move the needle. I believe it's going to be different once the Q3 numbers are reported. We're going to find out that once again, AAPL continues to buy shares by the billions while reporting that in 9 months, they have generated more net income than all of 2020. In the first 6 months of operations, AAPL has generated $201.02 billion in revenue and $52.39 billion in net income while giving back $53.2 billion in buybacks and dividends. Investors have been granted an opportunity to buy more AAPL before the next leg up. I am a shareholder of AAPL, and I plan on buying more before Q3 earnings.</p><p><blockquote>迷因股票让一些投资者兴奋不已，同时也让另一群投资者摇头。除了赌博之外，我无法理解当你可以购买AAPL出售的股票时，为什么人们想要投资AMC。苹果公司本应大幅上涨，但其最近两个季度的井喷并没有起到任何作用。我相信一旦第三季度的数据公布，情况就会有所不同。我们将再次发现，AAPL继续购买数十亿美元的股票，同时报告称，在9个月内，他们创造的净利润超过了2020年全年。在运营的前6个月，AAPL创造了2010.2亿美元的收入和523.9亿美元的净利润，同时返还了532亿美元的回购和股息。投资者有机会在下一轮上涨之前买入更多苹果公司。我是AAPL的股东，我计划在第三季度财报公布之前购买更多。</blockquote></p><p></p>","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: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time<blockquote>苹果：模因股还是苹果，我每次都选苹果</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time<blockquote>苹果：模因股还是苹果，我每次都选苹果</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">seekingalpha</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-06-15 10:15</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><b>Summary</b></p><p><blockquote><b>总结</b></blockquote></p><p> <ul>  <li>Apple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.</li>  <li>Investors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the attention has shifted to chasing the quick buck with Meme stocks.</li>  <li>Apple is on pace to generate more than $300 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2021 and $75 billion in net income.</li>  <li>Eventually Apple will be invested back to the party and their numbers will be celebrated.</li> </ul> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54c3b80a3353ef82f618688f13f74658\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\"><span>Nikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images</span></p><p><blockquote><ul><li>苹果在2021年一直是负面投资，而模因股票却呈爆炸式增长，这太荒谬了。</li><li>投资者有机会在苹果下一轮上涨之前买入它，而注意力已转移到追逐模因股票的快速赚钱上。</li><li>苹果有望在2021财年创造超过3000亿美元的收入和750亿美元的净利润。</li><li>最终，苹果将被投入到党中，他们的数字将被庆祝。</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>Nikada/iStock未通过Getty Images发布</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In 2021, Apple (AAPL) has become a negative returning investment underperforming the SPDR S&amp;P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) by a margin greater than 15%. In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers&nbsp;Cathie Wood&nbsp;of&nbsp;Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in&nbsp;Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.</p><p><blockquote>2021年，苹果(AAPL)已成为负回报投资，表现落后SPDR标普500信托ETF（SPDR标普500指数ETF）超过15%。2021年5月，最热门的基金经理之一Ark Invest的Cathie Wood从ARK Fintech Innovation ETF(ARKF)出售了近30万股AAPL股票。据报道，ARK一度减持了AAPL的股份，以增持Coinbase(COIN)和DraftKings(DKNG)的股份。one’s ARK等主动管理型基金每天都会监督股票的买卖，并且可能会使用AAPL作为现金的替代品。苹果公司的评论褒贬不一，一些人认为它最好的日子还在前面，而另一些人则认为辉煌的日子不会重现。我认为市场正在给投资者一个机会，因为AAPL应该会在2021年下半年突破横盘格局。</blockquote></p><p> The market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation &amp; gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.</p><p><blockquote>市场对苹果公司在第一季度和第二季度的井喷表现并没有留下深刻印象。苹果公司的股价非但没有受到基本面的支持，反而一直停滞不前。作为苹果公司的多头，令人费解的是，当苹果公司为有史以来最好的一年做准备时，如此多的注意力都集中在模因股票上，而不是像苹果公司这样的公司。在阅读了最近关于MEME股票的文章的评论后，我写道，然后回顾一些AAPL文章的评论部分，我只是不明白心态是如何转向彻底的投机和赌博而不是投资的。在本财年的前两个季度，2021年AAPL的每股收益为3.08美元，而整个2020财年的每股收益为3.31美元。苹果公司正在为许多指标上有史以来最好的一年奠定基础，但市场并没有留下深刻印象。我相信2021年下半年将会有令人印象深刻的烟花，随着第三季度和第四季度数据的公布，耐心的股东将会得到回报。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e86cb02096dfa9c6da05e350f274aa64\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"556\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：寻求阿尔法）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Apple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is</b></p><p><blockquote><b>苹果相信这是市场上最好的投资，并把钱用在了他们的嘴上</b></blockquote></p><p> So what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&amp;D]. In&nbsp;2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&amp;D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.</p><p><blockquote>那么AAPL如何处理其产生的所有现金呢？首先，他们每年花费数百亿美元来发展业务，同时投资研发[R&amp;D]。2020年，AAPL在创收成本上花费了1695.6亿美元。他们的劳动成果可以从他们的产品供应以及他们最新的业务领域（包括服务和可穿戴设备、家居和配件）的增长速度中看出。AAPL在2020年拨款187.5亿美元用于研发，为他们心爱的产品带来进步。AAPL拥有类似邪教心态的客户的原因之一是因为AAPL不会停止创新。他们总是站在最前沿，推动技术如何改善个人日常生活的界限。</blockquote></p><p> So what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's&nbsp;board&nbsp;authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost&nbsp;$23 billion&nbsp;in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.</p><p><blockquote>那么AAPL的业务费用兑现后剩下的现金呢？苹果公司押注于自己，并将其股票视为一种投资。自2012财年以来，AAPL已回购了价值4217亿美元的自有股票。2021年，AAPL回购了430亿美元的股票，这表明高级领导层认为持有AAPL股票具有巨大价值。我记得当内部人士购买他们公司的股票时，每个人都感到兴奋的日子。对于苹果公司来说，回购股票只是一个普通的周一。苹果公司在过去十年中回购的股票数量超过了大多数公司的市值增长水平。AAPL董事会授权在其现有股票回购计划的基础上追加900亿美元，AAPL在2021年第二季度向股东返还了近230亿美元的资本，没有比这更乐观的了。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3dbaf61374104ed17e51201af591ab7d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：苹果）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Meme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market</b></p><p><blockquote><b>模因股票与苹果以及这个市场的疯狂</b></blockquote></p><p></p><p> GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME &amp; AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.</p><p><blockquote>2021年上半年，游戏驿站(GME)和AMC院线控股(AMC)的股价大幅上涨。不管GME和AMC为何上涨，事实是GME的回报率超过1,100%，AMC的回报率超过2,000%。任何骑过GME或AMC的人，我祝贺并向你们脱帽致敬。由于AAPL今年表现不佳，市场正受到宏伟妄想的推动，但GME和AMC却绝对呈爆炸式上涨。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c85258331453c02381346f8b6c676cec\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"499\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：寻求阿尔法）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> What's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through&nbsp;AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.</p><p><blockquote>过去几个月AMC发生了什么变化？我可以告诉你，一件事都没有。AMC仍然是一家亏损且几乎不赚钱的公司。我知道投资AMC这样的公司可以因波动性而产生巨额回报，但我并不是在批评它。如果你能在上面赚钱，无论如何，不要让任何人妨碍你，但要小心。当你通读AMC的损益表时，你会发现他们的净利润从未超过4亿美元。在过去十年中，AMC最赚钱的一年是2013年，净利润为3.644亿美元。2019年，新冠疫情的影响为零，AMC创造了54.7亿美元的收入，甚至无法盈利，因为他们亏损了1.491亿美元。AMC上一季度报告的资产负债表上的股本为-23亿美元。现实情况是，AMC可以增发股票并出售以筹集资金。这将改善资产负债表并增加手头现金，从而使AMC受益。人们似乎不明白，当一家公司发行更多股票时，最初的一批股票会因为额外的供应而被稀释并变得毫无价值。AMC可以发行股票并增强其资产负债表，但这不会解决其盈利问题。AAPL每个季度向股东支付的股息比AMC过去十年产生的利润还要多，但AMC是产生更大回报的股票。</blockquote></p><p> When investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my&nbsp;AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&amp;P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN)&nbsp;has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and&nbsp;Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.</p><p><blockquote>当投资者购买AMC股票时，他们购买的是一家每股收益为负的公司。AMC的市盈率无法在过去12个月或远期基础上衡量，但投资者愿意为不存在的收益买单。在我的AMC文章的评论中，人们说基本面并不重要。我知道AMC一直是一项技术性交易，但这并不能改变投资者为一家盈利为负的公司买单的现实。目前，标准普尔指数的平均市盈率为45.02。如果我使用AAPL在2021财年前6个月产生的每股收益3.08美元，他们的市盈率将为40.55。对于TTM，AAPL的每股收益为4.49美元，这使得其市盈率降至28.09。目前，投资者为AAPL每产生1美元的收益支付28.09美元，这对于科技行业来说很低。亚马逊(AMZN)的市盈率为62.44，微软(MSFT)为34.93，谷歌(GOOGL)为32.05。看涨期权我很守旧，但我喜欢投资盈利的公司。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79e06d9bc68454731c984429111ff056\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"661\"><span>(Source:multpl.com)</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>（来源：multpl.com）</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <b>Laying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable</b></p><p><blockquote><b>阐述苹果的牛市理由以及为什么向上突破是不可避免的</b></blockquote></p><p> AAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.</p><p><blockquote>苹果公司拥有一批狂热的追随者，他们被其产品和服务所吸引。2021年前6个月，AAPLhas的收入为2010.2亿美元，毛利润为824.1亿美元，净利润为523.9亿美元。2021年，AAPL已创造了2020年总收入的73.23%（2010.2亿美元），然后是2020年总收入（824.1亿美元）的78.51%和2020年净利润总额（523.9亿美元）的91.25%。AAPL有望打破之前的记录，除非发生深不可测的事情，否则2021年将是AAPL有史以来最好的一年。</blockquote></p><p> So the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when&nbsp;AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.</p><p><blockquote>因此，真正的问题是是什么导致了AAPL财务状况的飙升，以及它们是否可持续？部分原因是AAPL的硬件销量从iPhone 12到iPad都有所增长。可以说，由于在家工作或远程学习，许多人在疫情期间需要升级他们的技术，但这种逻辑不能用于2021年。4月底，当AAPL报告Q2时，他们的iPhone销售额超出预期71.4亿美元，Mac销售额超出预期22亿美元，iPad销售额超出预期20.1亿美元。这些数字是一年后的事了，虽然AAPL首款5G产品iPhone 12预计会带来推动力，但我相信疫情将社会推向了一个更加重视技术的地方。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> I believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In&nbsp;2018 Services&nbsp;generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.</p><p><blockquote>我相信AAPL将继续看到强劲的硬件销售，但这只是拼图的一部分。服务和可穿戴设备家居和配件正在成为AAPL财务指标的重要组成部分。2018年，服务业创造了397.5亿美元的收入。2019年，服务增加了65.4亿美元（16.46%），全年收入为462.9亿美元。2020年，服务业增长了74.8亿美元（16.15%），总收入达到537.7亿美元。2020年前6个月，服务已经创造了326.6亿美元的收入，占2020年总收入的60.75%。服务持续增长，为AAPL创造了真正的经常性收入业务部门。服务的美妙之处在于AAPL销售的每一件硬件；每个月都有机会通过服务产生额外的收入。</blockquote></p><p> Services are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021.

In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers Cathie Wood of Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.\nThe market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation & gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nApple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is\nSo what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&D]. In 2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.\nSo what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's board authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost $23 billion in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.\n(Source: Apple)\nMeme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market\nGameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME & AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nWhat's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.\nWhen investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN) has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.\n(Source:multpl.com)\nLaying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable\nAAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.\nSo the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.\nI believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In 2018 Services generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.\nServices are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nWearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac.

AAPL investors: long-term winners</b></p><p><blockquote><b>#1.AAPL投资者：长期赢家</b></blockquote></p><p> As I mentioned&nbsp;in my recent “Apple Stock 101” article, investors that bought Apple shares in December 1980 (i.e. the IPO date) and held onto them until now realized impressive annualized gains of&nbsp;<b>19%</b>. Clearly, AAPL has been a good asset to “get and forget” over Apple’s tenure as a publicly-traded company.</p><p><blockquote>正如我在最近的“苹果股票101”文章中提到的，在1980年12月（即IPO日期）购买苹果股票并持有至今的投资者实现了令人印象深刻的年化收益<b>19%</b>显然，在苹果担任上市公司期间，AAPL一直是一笔值得“忘记”的好资产。</blockquote></p><p> But allow me to work with more realistic time frames. For this exercise, I will consider “investors” those who hold AAPL for one year. To be clear, many might consider twelve months a minimum investment horizon to qualify as long term.</p><p><blockquote>但是请允许我用更现实的时间框架来工作。在这个练习中，我将把持有AAPL一年的人视为“投资者”。需要明确的是，许多人可能认为12个月是符合长期投资资格的最低投资期限。</blockquote></p><p> Also, I am limiting my analysis to the past 20 years, since the stock used to be much riskier and more volatile in its first couple of decades of existence than it is now. Apple stock’s returns have been even better during this period that begins with the end of the dot-com correction:<b>35%</b>&nbsp;annualized.</p><p><blockquote>此外，我将我的分析限制在过去20年，因为该股票在其存在的头几十年里的风险和波动性都比现在高得多。在从互联网调整结束开始的这段时间里，苹果股票的回报甚至更好：<b>35%</b>年化。</blockquote></p><p> The chart below shows the distribution of&nbsp;<i>weekly returns</i>&nbsp;earned by an Apple stock investor, using the parameters described above, if the bet had been made on any give day since May 2001.</p><p><blockquote>下图显示了<i>每周回报</i>如果自2001年5月以来的任何一天下注，则由苹果股票投资者使用上述参数赚取。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d658a73af3c004123aa9e0d29906ebe7\" tg-width=\"703\" tg-height=\"418\"><span>Figure 2: AAPL investor's weekly return distribution.</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>图2：AAPL投资者的每周回报分布。</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <ul>  <li><b>Key observation</b>: if held for one year, and based on historical observations alone (i.e. not on modeled projections for the future), Apple stock can arguably be expected to produce weekly returns of about +0.5% to +1.0%. Rarely has the stock been a big-time winner or loser – say, weekly returns of more than +2% or less than -1% on average – when the investment horizon is one year.</li> </ul> <b>#2. AAPL speculators: higher octane</b></p><p><blockquote><ul><li><b>关键观察</b>：如果持有一年，并且仅基于历史观察（即不是基于对未来的模型预测），苹果股票可以预期产生约+0.5%至+1.0%的周回报率。当投资期限为一年时，该股票很少成为大赢家或大输家（例如，平均每周回报率超过+2%或低于-1%）。</li></ul><b>#2.AAPL投机者：辛烷值更高</b></blockquote></p><p> Speculators have had a bit different experience from the above. Here, I characterize as “speculator” someone who buys AAPL and sells it ten weeks later, or roughly two and a half months after the purchase date.</p><p><blockquote>投机者的经历与上述略有不同。在这里，我将买入AAPL并在十周后（即购买日期后大约两个半月）卖出的人描述为“投机者”。</blockquote></p><p> See histogram below. For ease of comparison with the weekly return analysis immediately above, I kept the chart’s scale unchanged.</p><p><blockquote>参见下面的直方图。为了便于与上面的每周回报分析进行比较，我保持图表的比例不变。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/209f65d605439ca2f039619f15f5fc68\" tg-width=\"690\" tg-height=\"404\"><span>Figure 3: AAPL speculator's weekly return distribution.</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>图3：AAPL投机者的周回报分布。</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <ul>  <li><b>Key observation</b>: the distribution above is still somewhat bell-shaped, meaning that a weekly return of between +0.5% and +1.0% is still quite common. However, notice the much “fatter tails”. The probability of larger weekly gains or losses tends to increase when Apple stock is held for ten weeks rather than one year.</li> </ul> <b>#3. AAPL day-traders: buckle up!</b></p><p><blockquote><ul><li><b>关键观察</b>：上面的分布仍然有点钟形，这意味着+0.5%到+1.0%之间的周回报率仍然很常见。然而，请注意“更胖的尾巴”。当苹果股票持有十周而不是一年时，每周收益或损失较大的概率往往会增加。</li></ul><b>#3.AAPL日内交易者：系好安全带！</b></blockquote></p><p> Lastly, day-traders that buy Apple stock and sell it within less than a full week have been playing a completely different game. Once again, the histogram below depicts the average<i>weekly return</i>in AAPL when the timeframe is compressed to no more than 7 days. The chart scale, again, remains unchanged for ease of comparison.</p><p><blockquote>最后，买入苹果股票并在不到一周的时间内卖出的日内交易者一直在玩一种完全不同的游戏。同样，下面的直方图描述了平均值<i>每周回报</i>在AAPL，当时间范围被压缩到不超过7天时。为了便于比较，图表比例保持不变。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f77febcce32d4bcc45cf275cc5936671\" tg-width=\"657\" tg-height=\"395\"><span>Figure 4: AAPL day traders's weekly return distribution.</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>图4：AAPL日内交易者的周回报分布。</span></p></blockquote></p><p> <ul>  <li><b>Key observation</b>: when buying and selling AAPL in a matter of days, it is most common for the bets to result in much more sizable weekly gains or losses: less than -2.0% or more than +2.0%. Earning long-term average gains of about +0.5% to +1.0%, in these cases, has been a rarity.</li> </ul> <b>What to make of it all</b></p><p><blockquote><ul><li><b>关键观察</b>：当在几天内买卖AAPL时，最常见的情况是赌注会导致更大的每周收益或损失：小于-2.0%或大于+2.0%。在这些情况下，获得约+0.5%至+1.0%的长期平均收益是罕见的。</li></ul><b>如何理解这一切</b></blockquote></p><p> Back to the original question: how long should Apple stock be held? Based on historical analysis, the answer really depends on personal goals. Here is the roadmap:</p><p><blockquote>回到最初的问题：苹果股票应该持有多久？基于历史分析，答案确实取决于个人目标。以下是路线图：</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <ul>  <li>If merely seeking long-term capital appreciation that might be market-beating, but probably not by a very wide margin, buying AAPL and holding it for a year or more is highly advisable.

This demand shock is primarily caused by consumers who can't splash the cash on services such as restaurants and travel and who are now spending more on consumer electronics. The strong demand for home office equipment and faster-than-expected recovery from other sectors are also not helping.\nOn top of that, 5G cellular networks are rolling out and there's a subsequent rise in demand for new compatible smartphones. While most semiconductor factories operate at maximum capacity, breakdowns at four Texas facilities due to extreme cold and a fire at a Renesas Naka factory north of Tokyo worsened the situation going into the second quarter.\nSuppliers of game consoles and smartphones are having real trouble meeting the demand for their products due to the semiconductor shortage. You can also see it in the automotive industry, where there've been production cuts and planned interruptions.\nStructural demand for chips is growing rapidly\nAlthough part of this demand shock is temporary, there's a structural dimension to rapidly expanding semiconductor usage. The market is expected to grow by double digits again in 2021, according to IC Insights. Many devices that used to be completely analogue are now digital and supported by integrated circuits. For example, smart thermostats or light bulbs compatible with home systems contain significant computational power to support their functionality as well as digital connectivity.\nCars and trucks also require an increasing number of semiconductors, thanks to the extension of integrated Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) and board computers. The rise in the production of electric vehicles and future steps in autonomous driving will push demand up still further.\nSupply issues may spill into 2022\nCurrent lead times for chips can be as long as 26 weeks and up to a year for some specific variants. Recent incidents at facilities in the US and Japan put the lead times further under pressure. Despite significant planned investments in semiconductor production facilities, capacity will remain scarce well into the second half of 2021. Even if the acute shortage is resolved in the second half of the year, semi-conductor manufacturing lines will remain operating at near-full capacity in the coming years, making the industry sensitive to future supply shocks.\nCapital investment boost will raise capacity, but this takes time\nIn order to meet growing demand, chipmakers started to ramp up investments. The Taiwanese company, TSMC (TSM), is boosting capital expenditure from USD17 billion in 2020 to USD28 billion in 2021. On top of that, the company plans to invest still more, to the tune of some USD100 billion in the next three years, to grow capacity.\nSamsung (SSNLF) also plans to increase semiconductor-related capital expenditure by 20%, up to USD31 billion this year, and announced there’s more to follow. Although these soaring investments will let supply catch up, this takes time and won’t bring much relief this year. Remember, chip production machines have long lead times. In the meantime, we notice that chip manufactures are ending volume discounts and some are also raising prices.\nThe science bit\n\nChip production starts with wafers. A wafer (slice of semiconductor) acts as a substrate for microelectronic devices. Many so-called integrated circuits are printed on 200mm silicon wafers, being provided by silicon producers. Since the introduction of 300mm wafers in 2002, 200mm wafers were expected to phase out. Therefore, most investments in production capacity have been directed to production lines based on 300mm wafers.\nHowever, 200mm wafer-based production is technologically mature, offering relatively low development and production costs and very stable manufacturing processes. Therefore, many of the less-complex chips, such as sensors and transmitters and the more basic processing units, are still being developed based on this 200mm technology.\nThe rise of smart devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) causes an unanticipated rise in demand for 200mm production capacity, contributing to the shortage. Although fresh 200mm capacity is coming available in 2021, foundries may be a bit reluctant to invest in this slightly dated technology, since 300mm wafer-based production is still expected to take over once production costs are sufficiently low.\nThis means that supply is expected to remain weak compared to demand.\n\nMost wafer production capacity concentrated in Asia\nManufacturers of electronic devices generally outsource their semiconductor production partially to large so-called foundries such as TSMC, which produce wafers for third parties. Most installed wafer capacity (the capacity to process blank silicon wafers into chips) is based in Taiwan and South Korea. China and Japan also represent a significant share. Altogether 70-75% of supply is sourced from Asia.\nOnly a small portion is produced in Europe, making the continent dependent and sensitive to delivery issues. That’s why the EU aims to create more capacity in its own region, and the US also intends to ramp up chip production as part of President Biden’s recently announced stimulus plan.\nShare of installed wafer capacity per region\nSource: Bain & Company, ING Research\nConsumer electronics uses almost 75% of chip supplies\nIn a digitalising world with fast-growing data volumes, various production sectors are increasingly dependent on chip supplies. Manufacturers of laptops and smartphones are obviously the largest consumers of chips, taking almost 75% of the pie. The remainder is delivered to the automotive sector, other manufacturers and infrastructure purposes. However, as we've just mentioned, with objects being increasingly connected and with more intelligence being built in, demand for semiconductors from all sides is on the rise.\nConsumer electronics by far the largest chip user\nSource: IC Insights, figures Dec. 2020 (300mm), Dec. 2019 (200mm)\nAutomotive production takes a hit around the globe\nThe automotive industry has been especially hit hard by the semiconductor shortage. This is partly due to the common just-in-time manufacturing strategy. When automotive production was down 40% in the early days of the pandemic, many orders for car parts including semiconductors were cancelled. As demand for semiconductors recovered more quickly than expected, the spare production capacity has been allocated away from clients in the industry.\nCarmakers seem to have overestimated availability. In the second half of 2020, manufacturers were struggling to get their hands on semiconductors Consequently, these manufacturers cut or suspended production at sites worldwide for short periods.\nGlobal car production at lower levels in 1Q 2021\nSource: IHS Markit\nContinuing chip shortage limits car production recovery in 2021\nChip shortages led to around a million fewer cars being produced in the first quarter of 2021, according to IHS Market; that's some 5% of total production, and there were fewer cars being made than in the previous quarter. Compared with last year, global production is starting to recovery, but it's not easy to keep up with demand due to supply issues. Order books are full and lead times for new cars are up.

On Thursday, they were among the market’s biggest losers.\nThere’s a good reason for that. Banks generally make money by borrowing money short and lending it out long—andmaking a profit off the spread. When longer-term rates rise faster than shorter-term ones, bank margins generally get better, while the profits deteriorate when the opposite happens.\nAfter Wednesday’s meeting, the 10-year yield got a big bounce—it rose 0.071% to 1.569%—while thetwo-year yield rose0.038 percentage point to 0.203%, putting the spread between the two at 1.366 percentage points. That widening made the financial sector generally, and bank stocks specifically, one of the few sectors to react positively to the Fed’s announcement on Wednesday. TheSPDR S&P Bank ETF(KBE) rose 0.9%, whileJPMorgan Chase(JPM) rose 0.7%, even as theS&P 500fell 0.5%, theDow Jones Industrial Averagedropped 0.8%, and theNasdaq Compositedeclined 0.2%\nThe market, however, has had a change of heart. The 10-year yield has fallen to 1.498%, while the two-year has risen to 0.238%, putting the gap at 1.26 percentage points. That so-called flattening of the yield curve is bad news for a rate-sensitive sector like banks. The SPDR S&P Bank ETF fell 4.5% on Thurdsay and 1% in premarket trading on Friday. JPMorgan dropped 2.9% on Thursday and is down about 1% on Friday. S&P 500 futures on Friday were down 0.6%, while Dow futures were down 0.8%. Futures for the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4%.\nWhy the about-face from the market? For yields to keep rising, the economy needs to show that it is recovering quickly. Otherwise, investors are going to bet on a repeat of the slow growth the U.S. experienced after the financial crisis of 2008. With jobless claims missing by a wide margin Thursday—and experiencing the first rise following six weeks of drops—the market decided to focus on the latter, not the former, says Evercore ISI strategist Dennis DeBusschere. “The risk to the economic outlook is the sharp turn to hawkish side, relative to what everyone previously thought, at the same time the labor market isn’t as strong as the Fed assumed,” he writes.\nUntil that changes, it will be hard for bank stocks to bounce back.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MS":0.9,"WFC":0.9,"BAC":0.9,"C":0.9,"GS":0.9,"JPM":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":644,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":138176419,"gmtCreate":1621921656431,"gmtModify":1634185463091,"author":{"id":"3570923041276809","authorId":"3570923041276809","name":"potatochip","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/279b09d8c5dbf0fd92a959709ef9b5ff","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570923041276809","authorIdStr":"3570923041276809"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"More choices for consumers [Wow]&nbsp;","listText":"More choices for consumers [Wow]&nbsp;","text":"More choices for consumers [Wow]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/138176419","repostId":"1108214541","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":527,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":197573839,"gmtCreate":1621475991421,"gmtModify":1634188846352,"author":{"id":"3570923041276809","authorId":"3570923041276809","name":"potatochip","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/279b09d8c5dbf0fd92a959709ef9b5ff","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570923041276809","authorIdStr":"3570923041276809"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Both also like![Miser]&nbsp;","listText":"Both also like![Miser]&nbsp;","text":"Both also like![Miser]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/197573839","repostId":"1189117782","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":409,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373097376,"gmtCreate":1618800649895,"gmtModify":1634290832654,"author":{"id":"3570923041276809","authorId":"3570923041276809","name":"potatochip","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/279b09d8c5dbf0fd92a959709ef9b5ff","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570923041276809","authorIdStr":"3570923041276809"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple event!

Disney is said to have come out ahead after CEO Bob Chapek and team faced the severest of financial stress tests. \"When parks and theaters emptied out a year ago, costs kept rolling in, and the fastest-growing part of the business, streaming, was consuming cash—as it still is. Yet, Disney generated $3.6 billion in free cash during its fiscal year ended last September. It’s seen producing $3.3 billion this year before the numbers begin a sharp rebound,\" notes Jack Hough. While the movie business is still sputtering to restart and the TV business is seen holding steady at best, streaming results have shattered forecasts. Disney+ smashed expectations in piling up 100M in less than 18 months, compared to the 10 years it took Netflix to hit that level. Disney is targeting 300M to 350M subscribers by 2024 across all of its streaming platforms, including Hulu, ESPN+, Hotstar in India, and Star+ in Latin America (launches in June). PetIQ(NASDAQ:PETQ)and O'Reilly Automotive(NASDAQ:ORLY)also land favorable write-ups this week.</p><p><blockquote><b>《巴伦周刊》提到：</b>迪士尼（纽约证券交易所股票代码：DIS）本周登上了《巴伦周刊》的封面，这家媒体巨头因为新冠疫情后的增长做好了定位而受到赞誉。据说，在首席执行官鲍勃·查佩克和团队面临最严峻的财务压力测试后，迪士尼脱颖而出。“一年前，当公园和剧院空无一人时，成本不断滚滚而来，流媒体业务增长最快的部分正在消耗现金——现在仍然如此。然而，迪士尼在截至去年9月的财年中产生了36亿美元的自由现金。在数字开始大幅反弹之前，今年的收入为33亿美元，”杰克·霍夫指出。虽然电影业务仍在艰难重启，电视业务充其量也保持稳定，但流媒体业绩却超出了预期。Disney+在不到18个月的时间里积累了1亿美元，超出了预期，而Netflix花了10年时间才达到这一水平。迪士尼的目标是到2024年在其所有流媒体平台上拥有3亿至3.5亿用户，包括印度的Hulu、ESPN+、Hotstar和拉丁美洲的Star+（6月推出）。PetIQ（纳斯达克股票代码：PETQ）和O’Reilly Automotive（纳斯达克股票代码：ORLY）本周也获得了好评。</blockquote></p><p></p>","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>Stocks To Watch: Apple Event, Disney Callout And Earnings Blitz<blockquote>值得关注的股票：苹果活动、迪士尼预告和盈利闪电战</blockquote></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: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\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\">\nStocks To Watch: Apple Event, Disney Callout And Earnings Blitz<blockquote>值得关注的股票：苹果活动、迪士尼预告和盈利闪电战</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">seekingalpha</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-04-19 00:17</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Welcome to Seeking Alpha's Stocks to Watch - a preview of key events scheduled for the this week.

In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.</p><p><blockquote>微软(MSFT)和亚马逊(AMZN)正在争夺云基础设施服务市场令人垂涎的第一名位置，根据Allied Market的报告，预计到2030年，该市场将从2021年的$325B增长到$1,620B（或$1.6 T）研究。第二季度，亚马逊的AWS收入同比增长37%（显着加速），继续以31%的市场份额引领云基础设施服务市场。然而，微软的Azure正在超过AWS的增长，目前占据22%的市场份额。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60b929cfb3eb06a50b14a942b980bd8d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>在过去一年左右的时间里，随着工作负载迁移和云原生应用程序开发的加速，冠状病毒疫情导致云基础设施服务支出增加。自然，Azure和AWS已经成为这种向云转型的主要受益者。尽管冠状病毒疫情在前几个月已经消退，但企业仍在继续拥抱云，2021年Q2云基础设施服务支出环比增长50亿美元就证明了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ab77f327d4b4f980b703dd05a727a8fd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Both Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as&nbsp;Amazon's lawsuit&nbsp;for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest&nbsp;to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.</p><p><blockquote>微软和亚马逊都是多元化的大型科技巨头。然而，云机遇对他们未来的成功至关重要。如今，微软的智能云业务占总收入的近37%，占微软营业收入的约40%，预计这些数字在未来几年将进一步增长。与亚马逊相比，AWS的收入仅占总销售额的一小部分（2021年第二季度为13%）。然而，AWS贡献了亚马逊的大部分营业收入（约60%）。所以，我对这场战斗变得如此丑陋并不感到惊讶。最近，我们目睹了一些戏剧性的事件，如亚马逊就授予微软的100亿美元Jedi合同提起诉讼，微软就授予亚马逊的100亿美元NSA合同向政府问责办公室提出抗议，以及AWS高管Charlie Bell（曾有望接替Andy Jassy担任AWS首席执行官）搬到微软。亚马逊和微软之间的竞争是可怕的。然而，我可以看到云服务市场有足够的空间容纳多个赢家。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7fd2cfae285856cb75e5ced740ef320\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"310\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Allied Market Research</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：联合市场研究</span></p></blockquote></p><p> With massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now). Azure has been gaining ground on AWS, but it's too soon to tell which of these tech titans will lead the cloud services market over the coming years.</p><p><blockquote>随着云服务的大规模增长，我预计微软和亚马逊在未来十年都将实现两位数的收入增长。一些分析师预计云服务业务将成为一种商品。然而，AWS和微软智能云的盈利指标显示，它显然不是一项商品业务（至少目前如此）。Azure一直在AWS上取得进展，但现在判断这些科技巨头中哪一家将在未来几年引领云服务市场还为时过早。</blockquote></p><p> Over the last 12 months, Microsoft has significantly outperformed Amazon in terms of creating shareholder wealth, as can be observed in the chart below. I attribute Microsoft's outperformance to a multitude of factors, including but not limited to stronger momentum in the cloud, the existence of a massive capital return program, and robust free cash flow generation.</p><p><blockquote>在过去12个月中，微软在创造股东财富方面的表现明显优于亚马逊，如下图所示。我将微软的优异表现归因于多种因素，包括但不限于云计算的强劲势头、大规模资本回报计划的存在以及强劲的自由现金流生成。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a47beb283bcc911ba9ad25c4c2c01f91\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In today's article, I will share a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.

However, it's very likely that Amazon and Microsoft will be dominating this market in 2031. Now, Amazon and Microsoft may be competitors in the cloud, but they happen to be two very different companies with varied core competencies: Amazon - e-commerce, Microsoft - business, and consumer software. Let's carry out a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.</p><p><blockquote>我认为现在看涨期权云服务市场还为时过早，赢家只有在适当的时候才会显现出来。然而，亚马逊和微软很可能会在2031年主导这个市场。现在，亚马逊和微软可能是云领域的竞争对手，但它们恰好是两家截然不同的公司，拥有不同的核心竞争力：亚马逊——电子商务、微软——商业和消费软件。让我们进行一个比较财务分析，以确定微软和亚马逊之间更好的购买方式。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d675b34f8dc1b88db5722fa7be591b9f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In essence, Microsoft is a high-margin software and services business, while Amazon is a low-margin retail business with some higher-margin business lines such as AWS and Advertising. Since both Amazon and Microsoft are over-covered stocks, I don't think discussing their revenue mix would be of much value. However, let's look at the free cash flow generation of these blue-chip giants to understand their current business momentum.</p><p><blockquote>本质上，微软是一个高利润的软件和服务业务，而亚马逊是一个低利润的零售业务，拥有一些更高利润的业务线，如AWS和广告。由于亚马逊和微软都是被过度覆盖的股票，我认为讨论它们的收入组合没有多大价值。然而，让我们看看这些蓝筹巨头的自由现金流生成情况，以了解他们目前的业务势头。</blockquote></p><p> After receiving a massive pandemic boost, Amazon's free cash flows have turned negative in the last two quarters as the company invests massive amounts of capital (capex spending) in driving future revenue growth. In Q2, Amazon missed revenue estimates by ~$2B, which is further evidence of Amazon losing business momentum. On the other hand, Microsoft's business momentum remained strong in Q2 as the company beat revenue expectations by ~$2B while generating record amounts of free cash flow over the last 12 months. Therefore, it's fair to say that Microsoft is outperforming Amazon for the time being.</p><p><blockquote>在受到大流行的巨大提振后，亚马逊的自由现金流在过去两个季度转为负值，因为该公司投入了大量资本（capex支出）来推动未来的收入增长。第二季度，亚马逊的收入低于预期约20亿美元，这进一步证明亚马逊正在失去业务动力。另一方面，微软第二季度的业务势头依然强劲，该公司的收入超出预期约20亿美元，同时在过去12个月内产生了创纪录的自由现金流。因此，可以公平地说，微软的表现暂时优于亚马逊。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0ed96043009b5528ed09d4e736d1833d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> At the end of Q2, Microsoft had nearly $130B of cash and short-term investments on its balance sheet vs. financial debt of $58B (down from ~$90B debt in Dec'17). Over the last five years, Amazon's cash reserves have been building up, which now stand at ~$90B. However, the e-commerce giant has been increasing its debt load too, which has grown to $50B in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>截至第二季度末，微软的资产负债表上有近130B美元的现金和短期投资，而金融债务为58B美元（低于17年12月的约90B美元债务）。在过去的五年里，亚马逊的现金储备一直在增加，目前约为90B美元。然而，这家电子商务巨头的债务负担也在增加，2021年第二季度已增至500亿美元。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f8f27effc87360acc99c52dadd22af3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In terms of balance sheet strength, Microsoft is clearly in a better position compared to Amazon. Moreover, Microsoft's free cash flow generation is superior to Amazon right now. As you can see below, Microsoft is using its financial strength to execute a massive capital return program that consists of stock buybacks and dividends. Although Amazon lacks a capital return program today, it's only a matter of time before Amazon boasts one of the largest capital return programs among big tech companies. Therefore, Microsoft's advantage in this department may be short lived.</p><p><blockquote>就资产负债表实力而言，与亚马逊相比，微软显然处于更有利的地位。此外，微软目前的自由现金流生成量优于亚马逊。如下图所示，微软正在利用其财务实力执行一项大规模资本回报计划，其中包括股票回购和股息。尽管亚马逊目前缺乏资本回报计划，但亚马逊拥有大型科技公司中最大的资本回报计划之一只是时间问题。因此，微软在这一部门的优势可能是短暂的。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef388b2cab13ed222ddf2ba53ad6067f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> While Microsoft returns the majority of its operational cash flows back to shareholders, Amazon is investing billions of dollars to drive future revenue (and, by extension, free cash flow) growth. In my opinion, Amazon will continue to outpace Microsoft's revenue growth over the next decade. As Amazon's faster-growing, higher-margin business lines, AWS and Advertising, contribute a larger share of Amazon's revenues over the coming years, its margins are expected to head higher. Hence, Amazon possesses the greater potential for revenue growth and margin expansion compared to Microsoft. To learn more about AWS and Amazon's Ads business, you may read the following notes:</p><p><blockquote>虽然微软将大部分运营现金流返还给股东，但亚马逊正在投资数十亿美元来推动未来收入（以及自由现金流）的增长。在我看来，未来十年，亚马逊的收入增长将继续超过微软。随着亚马逊增长更快、利润率更高的业务线AWS和广告在未来几年为亚马逊的收入贡献了更大的份额，预计其利润率将会上升。因此，与微软相比，亚马逊拥有更大的收入增长和利润率扩张潜力。要了解有关AWS和亚马逊广告业务的更多信息，您可以阅读以下说明：</blockquote></p><p> <ol>  <li>Amazon Web Services -&nbsp;Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring</li>  <li>Digital Ads -&nbsp;Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS</li> </ol> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18e9ff96d611913db9e45fbff0cc34ab\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><ol><li>亚马逊网络服务-亚马逊：以下是您应该监控的内容</li><li>数字广告-亚马逊：“其他”细分市场的价值可能超过AWS</li></ol><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Although Amazon appears to be more expensive than Microsoft based on backward-looking trading multiples such as Price-to-Earnings and Price-to-FCF ratios, it's relatively cheaper than Microsoft when we factor in future growth as indicated by the PEG ratios.</p><p><blockquote>尽管根据市盈率和市盈率与自由现金流比率等回顾性交易倍数，亚马逊似乎比微软贵，但当我们考虑到PEG比率所表明的未来增长时，亚马逊相对比微软便宜。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68cf436c611eb187de68bf8802e73021\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p></p><p> In summary, Microsoft is currently performing better than Amazon. However, Amazon's future appears to be a lot brighter than Microsoft. Since the stock markets are forward-looking, I would expect Amazon to outperform Microsoft over the coming years if their relative valuations were identical. With that being said, let us now calculate the intrinsic value of both Microsoft and Amazon along with future expected returns for these tech giants.</p><p><blockquote>综上所述，微软目前的表现优于亚马逊。然而，亚马逊的未来似乎比微软要光明得多。由于股市具有前瞻性，如果亚马逊的相对估值相同，我预计亚马逊在未来几年的表现将优于微软。话虽如此，现在让我们计算一下微软和亚马逊的内在价值，以及这些科技巨头未来的预期回报。</blockquote></p><p> Evaluating the Fair Value And Expected Return of Microsoft And Amazon</p><p><blockquote>评估微软和亚马逊的公允价值和预期回报</blockquote></p><p> To find the fair values of Microsoft and Amazon, we will employ our proprietary valuation model.

Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.</p><p><blockquote><table><tbody><tr><td><b>当前价格</b></td><td><b>公允价值</b></td><td><b>低估(-)或高估(+)</b></td><td><b>2031年股价目标</b></td><td><b>总预期复合年增长率回报</b></td><td><b>评级</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>微软</b></td><td>$301</td><td>$295</td><td>+2.15%</td><td>$1101</td><td>14.71%</td><td><i>适度购买</i></td></tr><tr><td><b>亚马逊</b></td><td>$3478</td><td>$6024</td><td>-42.27%</td><td>$22298</td><td>20.42%</td><td><i>强力买入</i></td></tr></tbody></table>正如您所看到的，微软的估值略有高估，以301美元买入的投资者预计未来十年的复合年增长率约为14.71%，略低于我们15%的投资门槛率。由于微软的业务基本面强劲，我将其评为以这个价格适度买入。另一方面，亚马逊的业务面临近期波动，业务势头看起来摇摇欲坠。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，这是长期投资者产生显着阿尔法的机会。由于亚马逊的预期复合年增长率远大于我的最低回报率，我将亚马逊评为强力买入。如果我要根据业务势头（云和其他）在微软和亚马逊之间做出选择，我会选择微软。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，而微软的估值相当合理。考虑到可用的风险/回报，我认为亚马逊是更好的选择。</blockquote></p><p> Key Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301.

In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.</p><p><blockquote>微软(MSFT)和亚马逊(AMZN)正在争夺云基础设施服务市场令人垂涎的第一名位置，根据Allied Market的报告，预计到2030年，该市场将从2021年的$325B增长到$1,620B（或$1.6 T）研究。第二季度，亚马逊的AWS收入同比增长37%（显着加速），继续以31%的市场份额引领云基础设施服务市场。然而，微软的Azure正在超过AWS的增长，目前占据22%的市场份额。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60b929cfb3eb06a50b14a942b980bd8d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>在过去一年左右的时间里，随着工作负载迁移和云原生应用程序开发的加速，冠状病毒疫情导致云基础设施服务支出增加。自然，Azure和AWS已经成为这种向云转型的主要受益者。尽管冠状病毒疫情在前几个月已经消退，但企业仍在继续拥抱云，2021年Q2云基础设施服务支出环比增长50亿美元就证明了这一点。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ab77f327d4b4f980b703dd05a727a8fd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: canalys.com</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：canalys.com</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Both Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as&nbsp;Amazon's lawsuit&nbsp;for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest&nbsp;to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.</p><p><blockquote>微软和亚马逊都是多元化的大型科技巨头。然而，云机遇对他们未来的成功至关重要。如今，微软的智能云业务占总收入的近37%，占微软营业收入的约40%，预计这些数字在未来几年将进一步增长。与亚马逊相比，AWS的收入仅占总销售额的一小部分（2021年第二季度为13%）。然而，AWS贡献了亚马逊的大部分营业收入（约60%）。所以，我对这场战斗变得如此丑陋并不感到惊讶。最近，我们目睹了一些戏剧性的事件，如亚马逊就授予微软的100亿美元Jedi合同提起诉讼，微软就授予亚马逊的100亿美元NSA合同向政府问责办公室提出抗议，以及AWS高管Charlie Bell（曾有望接替Andy Jassy担任AWS首席执行官）搬到微软。亚马逊和微软之间的竞争是可怕的。然而，我可以看到云服务市场有足够的空间容纳多个赢家。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7fd2cfae285856cb75e5ced740ef320\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"310\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Allied Market Research</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：联合市场研究</span></p></blockquote></p><p> With massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now). Azure has been gaining ground on AWS, but it's too soon to tell which of these tech titans will lead the cloud services market over the coming years.</p><p><blockquote>随着云服务的大规模增长，我预计微软和亚马逊在未来十年都将实现两位数的收入增长。一些分析师预计云服务业务将成为一种商品。然而，AWS和微软智能云的盈利指标显示，它显然不是一项商品业务（至少目前如此）。Azure一直在AWS上取得进展，但现在判断这些科技巨头中哪一家将在未来几年引领云服务市场还为时过早。</blockquote></p><p> Over the last 12 months, Microsoft has significantly outperformed Amazon in terms of creating shareholder wealth, as can be observed in the chart below. I attribute Microsoft's outperformance to a multitude of factors, including but not limited to stronger momentum in the cloud, the existence of a massive capital return program, and robust free cash flow generation.</p><p><blockquote>在过去12个月中，微软在创造股东财富方面的表现明显优于亚马逊，如下图所示。我将微软的优异表现归因于多种因素，包括但不限于云计算的强劲势头、大规模资本回报计划的存在以及强劲的自由现金流生成。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a47beb283bcc911ba9ad25c4c2c01f91\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In today's article, I will share a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon. Furthermore, we will estimate the fair value and expected returns for both of these blue-chip companies based on the financial statement analysis conducted in this note.</p><p><blockquote>在今天的文章中，我将分享一个比较财务分析，以确定微软和亚马逊之间更好的购买方式。此外，我们将根据本附注中进行的财务报表分析估计这两家蓝筹公司的公允价值和预期回报。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Comparative Financial Analysis: Microsoft vs. Amazon</b></p><p><blockquote><b>比较财务分析：微软与亚马逊</b></blockquote></p><p> I think it's too early to call the cloud services market, and the winners will only be evident in due time. However, it's very likely that Amazon and Microsoft will be dominating this market in 2031. Now, Amazon and Microsoft may be competitors in the cloud, but they happen to be two very different companies with varied core competencies: Amazon - e-commerce, Microsoft - business, and consumer software. Let's carry out a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.</p><p><blockquote>我认为现在看涨期权云服务市场还为时过早，赢家只有在适当的时候才会显现出来。然而，亚马逊和微软很可能会在2031年主导这个市场。现在，亚马逊和微软可能是云领域的竞争对手，但它们恰好是两家截然不同的公司，拥有不同的核心竞争力：亚马逊——电子商务、微软——商业和消费软件。让我们进行一个比较财务分析，以确定微软和亚马逊之间更好的购买方式。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d675b34f8dc1b88db5722fa7be591b9f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In essence, Microsoft is a high-margin software and services business, while Amazon is a low-margin retail business with some higher-margin business lines such as AWS and Advertising. Since both Amazon and Microsoft are over-covered stocks, I don't think discussing their revenue mix would be of much value. However, let's look at the free cash flow generation of these blue-chip giants to understand their current business momentum.</p><p><blockquote>本质上，微软是一个高利润的软件和服务业务，而亚马逊是一个低利润的零售业务，拥有一些更高利润的业务线，如AWS和广告。由于亚马逊和微软都是被过度覆盖的股票，我认为讨论它们的收入组合没有多大价值。然而，让我们看看这些蓝筹巨头的自由现金流生成情况，以了解他们目前的业务势头。</blockquote></p><p> After receiving a massive pandemic boost, Amazon's free cash flows have turned negative in the last two quarters as the company invests massive amounts of capital (capex spending) in driving future revenue growth. In Q2, Amazon missed revenue estimates by ~$2B, which is further evidence of Amazon losing business momentum. On the other hand, Microsoft's business momentum remained strong in Q2 as the company beat revenue expectations by ~$2B while generating record amounts of free cash flow over the last 12 months. Therefore, it's fair to say that Microsoft is outperforming Amazon for the time being.</p><p><blockquote>在受到大流行的巨大提振后，亚马逊的自由现金流在过去两个季度转为负值，因为该公司投入了大量资本（capex支出）来推动未来的收入增长。第二季度，亚马逊的收入低于预期约20亿美元，这进一步证明亚马逊正在失去业务动力。另一方面，微软第二季度的业务势头依然强劲，该公司的收入超出预期约20亿美元，同时在过去12个月内产生了创纪录的自由现金流。因此，可以公平地说，微软的表现暂时优于亚马逊。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0ed96043009b5528ed09d4e736d1833d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> At the end of Q2, Microsoft had nearly $130B of cash and short-term investments on its balance sheet vs. financial debt of $58B (down from ~$90B debt in Dec'17). Over the last five years, Amazon's cash reserves have been building up, which now stand at ~$90B. However, the e-commerce giant has been increasing its debt load too, which has grown to $50B in Q2 2021.</p><p><blockquote>截至第二季度末，微软的资产负债表上有近130B美元的现金和短期投资，而金融债务为58B美元（低于17年12月的约90B美元债务）。在过去的五年里，亚马逊的现金储备一直在增加，目前约为90B美元。然而，这家电子商务巨头的债务负担也在增加，2021年第二季度已增至500亿美元。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f8f27effc87360acc99c52dadd22af3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> In terms of balance sheet strength, Microsoft is clearly in a better position compared to Amazon. Moreover, Microsoft's free cash flow generation is superior to Amazon right now. As you can see below, Microsoft is using its financial strength to execute a massive capital return program that consists of stock buybacks and dividends. Although Amazon lacks a capital return program today, it's only a matter of time before Amazon boasts one of the largest capital return programs among big tech companies. Therefore, Microsoft's advantage in this department may be short lived.</p><p><blockquote>就资产负债表实力而言，与亚马逊相比，微软显然处于更有利的地位。此外，微软目前的自由现金流生成量优于亚马逊。如下图所示，微软正在利用其财务实力执行一项大规模资本回报计划，其中包括股票回购和股息。尽管亚马逊目前缺乏资本回报计划，但亚马逊拥有大型科技公司中最大的资本回报计划之一只是时间问题。因此，微软在这一部门的优势可能是短暂的。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ef388b2cab13ed222ddf2ba53ad6067f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> While Microsoft returns the majority of its operational cash flows back to shareholders, Amazon is investing billions of dollars to drive future revenue (and, by extension, free cash flow) growth. In my opinion, Amazon will continue to outpace Microsoft's revenue growth over the next decade. As Amazon's faster-growing, higher-margin business lines, AWS and Advertising, contribute a larger share of Amazon's revenues over the coming years, its margins are expected to head higher. Hence, Amazon possesses the greater potential for revenue growth and margin expansion compared to Microsoft. To learn more about AWS and Amazon's Ads business, you may read the following notes:</p><p><blockquote>虽然微软将大部分运营现金流返还给股东，但亚马逊正在投资数十亿美元来推动未来收入（以及自由现金流）的增长。在我看来，未来十年，亚马逊的收入增长将继续超过微软。随着亚马逊增长更快、利润率更高的业务线AWS和广告在未来几年为亚马逊的收入贡献了更大的份额，预计其利润率将会上升。因此，与微软相比，亚马逊拥有更大的收入增长和利润率扩张潜力。要了解有关AWS和亚马逊广告业务的更多信息，您可以阅读以下说明：</blockquote></p><p> <ol>  <li>Amazon Web Services -&nbsp;Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring</li>  <li>Digital Ads -&nbsp;Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS</li> </ol> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/18e9ff96d611913db9e45fbff0cc34ab\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"413\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><ol><li>亚马逊网络服务-亚马逊：以下是您应该监控的内容</li><li>数字广告-亚马逊：“其他”细分市场的价值可能超过AWS</li></ol><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Although Amazon appears to be more expensive than Microsoft based on backward-looking trading multiples such as Price-to-Earnings and Price-to-FCF ratios, it's relatively cheaper than Microsoft when we factor in future growth as indicated by the PEG ratios.</p><p><blockquote>尽管根据市盈率和市盈率与自由现金流比率等回顾性交易倍数，亚马逊似乎比微软贵，但当我们考虑到PEG比率所表明的未来增长时，亚马逊相对比微软便宜。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68cf436c611eb187de68bf8802e73021\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: YCharts</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源：YCharts</span></p></blockquote></p><p></p><p> In summary, Microsoft is currently performing better than Amazon. However, Amazon's future appears to be a lot brighter than Microsoft. Since the stock markets are forward-looking, I would expect Amazon to outperform Microsoft over the coming years if their relative valuations were identical. With that being said, let us now calculate the intrinsic value of both Microsoft and Amazon along with future expected returns for these tech giants.</p><p><blockquote>综上所述，微软目前的表现优于亚马逊。然而，亚马逊的未来似乎比微软要光明得多。由于股市具有前瞻性，如果亚马逊的相对估值相同，我预计亚马逊在未来几年的表现将优于微软。话虽如此，现在让我们计算一下微软和亚马逊的内在价值，以及这些科技巨头未来的预期回报。</blockquote></p><p> Evaluating the Fair Value And Expected Return of Microsoft And Amazon</p><p><blockquote>评估微软和亚马逊的公允价值和预期回报</blockquote></p><p> To find the fair values of Microsoft and Amazon, we will employ our proprietary valuation model. Here's what it entails:</p><p><blockquote>为了找到微软和亚马逊的公允价值，我们将采用我们专有的估值模型。它的含义如下：</blockquote></p><p> <ul>  <li>In step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.</p><p><blockquote><ul><li>在第一步中，我们使用传统的DCF模型，自由现金流按我们（股东）的资本成本贴现。</li></ul></blockquote></p><p></li>  <li>In step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).</p><p><blockquote><li>在步骤2中，模型考虑了已发行股票变化（回购/稀释）的影响。</li></blockquote></p><p></li>  <li>In step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years.

Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.</p><p><blockquote><table><tbody><tr><td><b>当前价格</b></td><td><b>公允价值</b></td><td><b>低估(-)或高估(+)</b></td><td><b>2031年股价目标</b></td><td><b>总预期复合年增长率回报</b></td><td><b>评级</b></td></tr><tr><td><b>微软</b></td><td>$301</td><td>$295</td><td>+2.15%</td><td>$1101</td><td>14.71%</td><td><i>适度购买</i></td></tr><tr><td><b>亚马逊</b></td><td>$3478</td><td>$6024</td><td>-42.27%</td><td>$22298</td><td>20.42%</td><td><i>强力买入</i></td></tr></tbody></table>正如您所看到的，微软的估值略有高估，以301美元买入的投资者预计未来十年的复合年增长率约为14.71%，略低于我们15%的投资门槛率。由于微软的业务基本面强劲，我将其评为以这个价格适度买入。另一方面，亚马逊的业务面临近期波动，业务势头看起来摇摇欲坠。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，这是长期投资者产生显着阿尔法的机会。由于亚马逊的预期复合年增长率远大于我的最低回报率，我将亚马逊评为强力买入。如果我要根据业务势头（云和其他）在微软和亚马逊之间做出选择，我会选择微软。然而，亚马逊的股票被严重低估，而微软的估值相当合理。考虑到可用的风险/回报，我认为亚马逊是更好的选择。</blockquote></p><p> Key Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301.

However, Amazon's AWS remains in the No.1 position.\nAlthough the cloud wars are heating up, both Azure and AWS are performing exceptionally, growing at 51% y/y and 37% y/y, respectively.\nThe global cloud services market is poised to grow at a CAGR of ~15.8% until 2030 to become a $1.6T market. Therefore, cloud providers still have a long growth runway.\nIn this article, I share a comparative financial analysis for Microsoft and Amazon to determine the better buy.\n\nChip Somodevilla/Getty Images News\nIntroduction\nMicrosoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) are competing for the coveted No.1 spot in the cloud infrastructure services market, which is projected to grow from $325B in 2021 to $1,620B (or $1.6T) by 2030, according to areportby Allied Market Research. In Q2, Amazon's AWS revenues grew at 37% year-over-year (marked acceleration) as it continues to lead the cloud infrastructure services market with a 31% market share. However, Microsoft's Azure is outpacing AWS's growth and now commands a market share of 22%.\nSource: canalys.com\nIn the last year or so, the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased cloud infrastructure services spending as workload migration and cloud-native application development accelerated. Naturally, Azure and AWS have emerged as prime beneficiaries of this transformational shift toward the cloud. Although the coronavirus pandemic has receded in previous months, businesses have continued to embrace the cloud, as evidenced by the $5B sequential (q/q) growth in cloud infrastructure services spending in Q2 2021.\nSource: canalys.com\nBoth Microsoft and Amazon are well-diversified big tech giants. However, the cloud opportunity is critical to their future successes. Today, Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud business makes up nearly ~37% of total revenues and ~40% of Microsoft's operating income, and these figures are expected to grow even further in the coming years. In relation to Amazon, AWS's revenues are a small fraction (13% in Q2 2021) of total sales. However, AWS contributes the majority of Amazon's operating income (~60%). And so, I'm not surprised with how ugly this battle is turning out to be. In recent times, we have witnessed dramatic instances such as Amazon's lawsuit for the $10B Jedi contract being awarded to Microsoft,Microsoft's protest to Government Accountability Office in relation to the $10B NSA contract awarded to Amazon, and a top AWS executive - Charlie Bell (once expected to be a successor to Andy Jassy as AWS CEO) -moving over to Microsoft. The competition between Amazon and Microsoft is fearsome. However, I can see ample room for multiple winners in the cloud services market.\nSource: Allied Market Research\nWith massive cloud services growth on the horizon, I expect both Microsoft and Amazon to deliver double-digit revenue growth over the coming decade. Several analysts have projected the cloud services business to become a commodity. However, profitability metrics for AWS and Microsoft's Intelligent Cloud show that it's clearly not a commodity business (at least for now). Azure has been gaining ground on AWS, but it's too soon to tell which of these tech titans will lead the cloud services market over the coming years.\nOver the last 12 months, Microsoft has significantly outperformed Amazon in terms of creating shareholder wealth, as can be observed in the chart below. I attribute Microsoft's outperformance to a multitude of factors, including but not limited to stronger momentum in the cloud, the existence of a massive capital return program, and robust free cash flow generation.\nSource: YCharts\nIn today's article, I will share a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon. Furthermore, we will estimate the fair value and expected returns for both of these blue-chip companies based on the financial statement analysis conducted in this note.\nComparative Financial Analysis: Microsoft vs. Amazon\nI think it's too early to call the cloud services market, and the winners will only be evident in due time. However, it's very likely that Amazon and Microsoft will be dominating this market in 2031. Now, Amazon and Microsoft may be competitors in the cloud, but they happen to be two very different companies with varied core competencies: Amazon - e-commerce, Microsoft - business, and consumer software. Let's carry out a comparative financial analysis to determine the better buy among Microsoft and Amazon.\nSource: YCharts\nIn essence, Microsoft is a high-margin software and services business, while Amazon is a low-margin retail business with some higher-margin business lines such as AWS and Advertising. Since both Amazon and Microsoft are over-covered stocks, I don't think discussing their revenue mix would be of much value. However, let's look at the free cash flow generation of these blue-chip giants to understand their current business momentum.\nAfter receiving a massive pandemic boost, Amazon's free cash flows have turned negative in the last two quarters as the company invests massive amounts of capital (capex spending) in driving future revenue growth. In Q2, Amazon missed revenue estimates by ~$2B, which is further evidence of Amazon losing business momentum. On the other hand, Microsoft's business momentum remained strong in Q2 as the company beat revenue expectations by ~$2B while generating record amounts of free cash flow over the last 12 months. Therefore, it's fair to say that Microsoft is outperforming Amazon for the time being.\nSource: YCharts\nAt the end of Q2, Microsoft had nearly $130B of cash and short-term investments on its balance sheet vs. financial debt of $58B (down from ~$90B debt in Dec'17). Over the last five years, Amazon's cash reserves have been building up, which now stand at ~$90B. However, the e-commerce giant has been increasing its debt load too, which has grown to $50B in Q2 2021.\nSource: YCharts\nIn terms of balance sheet strength, Microsoft is clearly in a better position compared to Amazon. Moreover, Microsoft's free cash flow generation is superior to Amazon right now. As you can see below, Microsoft is using its financial strength to execute a massive capital return program that consists of stock buybacks and dividends. Although Amazon lacks a capital return program today, it's only a matter of time before Amazon boasts one of the largest capital return programs among big tech companies. Therefore, Microsoft's advantage in this department may be short lived.\nSource: YCharts\nWhile Microsoft returns the majority of its operational cash flows back to shareholders, Amazon is investing billions of dollars to drive future revenue (and, by extension, free cash flow) growth. In my opinion, Amazon will continue to outpace Microsoft's revenue growth over the next decade. As Amazon's faster-growing, higher-margin business lines, AWS and Advertising, contribute a larger share of Amazon's revenues over the coming years, its margins are expected to head higher. Hence, Amazon possesses the greater potential for revenue growth and margin expansion compared to Microsoft. To learn more about AWS and Amazon's Ads business, you may read the following notes:\n\nAmazon Web Services - Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring\nDigital Ads - Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS\n\nSource: YCharts\nAlthough Amazon appears to be more expensive than Microsoft based on backward-looking trading multiples such as Price-to-Earnings and Price-to-FCF ratios, it's relatively cheaper than Microsoft when we factor in future growth as indicated by the PEG ratios.\nSource: YCharts\nIn summary, Microsoft is currently performing better than Amazon. However, Amazon's future appears to be a lot brighter than Microsoft. Since the stock markets are forward-looking, I would expect Amazon to outperform Microsoft over the coming years if their relative valuations were identical. With that being said, let us now calculate the intrinsic value of both Microsoft and Amazon along with future expected returns for these tech giants.\nEvaluating the Fair Value And Expected Return of Microsoft And Amazon\nTo find the fair values of Microsoft and Amazon, we will employ our proprietary valuation model. Here's what it entails:\n\nIn step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.\nIn step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).\nIn step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, we arrive at a CAGR using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.\nIn step 4, we account for dividends.\n\nAssumptions:\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft\nAmazon\n\n\nForward 12-month revenue [A]\n$195 billion\n$515 billion\n\n\nPotential Free Cash Flow Margin [B]\n35%\n20%\n\n\nAverage diluted shares outstanding [C]\n7.5 billion\n525 million\n\n\nFree cash flow per share [ D = (A * B) / C ]\n$9.1\n$196.19\n\n\nFree cash flow per share growth rate\n10%\n12.5%\n\n\nTerminal growth rate\n3%\n3%\n\n\nYears of elevated growth\n10\n10\n\n\nTotal years to stimulate\n100\n100\n\n\nDiscount Rate (Our \"Next Best Alternative\")\n9.8%\n9.8%\n\n\n\nResults:\n1) Microsoft:\n\nSource: L.A.

Since Microsoft's business fundamentals are robust, I rate it as a modest buy at this price. On the other hand, Amazon's business is facing near-term volatility, and business momentum looks shaky. However, Amazon's stock is deeply undervalued, and this is an opportunity for long-term investors to generate significant alpha. As Amazon's expected CAGR returns are much greater than my hurdle rate, I rate Amazon a strong buy. If I were to choose between Microsoft and Amazon based on business momentum (cloud and otherwise), I would have to go with Microsoft. However, Amazon's stock is massively undervalued while Microsoft is fairly valued. Considering the risk/reward available, I think Amazon is the better buy here.\nKey Takeaway: I rate Amazon a strong buy at $3,478 and Microsoft a modest buy at $301. Amazon is a better buy than Microsoft at this point in time.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9,"MSFT":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
